This was a beautiful place to stay
We stayed at this place over our Thanksgiving break while we were in town visiting family. This was a beautiful joke with very responsive hosts and it was a beautiful place to stay.

Beautiful home
Delightful stay. Spacious, up-to-date home in a lovely suburban neighborhood. Worked perfectly for us. Five comfortable bedrooms, which included a convenient main floor bedroom and bath for an older relative. Kitchen was truly well-stocked: Lots of dishes, mugs, wine glasses and tea and coffee supplies. The right amount of pots and pans. We stayed for over a week and cooked delicious family meals almost every night because it was fun being together. Both the inside and outside were carefully curated with amenities including a pool, a trampoline, multiple tvs, and even a sauna. Kids absolutely loved the games in the garage like ping-pong, foosball and a basketball pop-a-shot game, as well as a chess table in the living room, so we opted for several “at-home” days just relaxing as a family. Easy drive, a little less than half an hour, to get to the Zoo, Safari Park, and San Diego Mission.

Absolutely Perfect
This home exceeded our expectations. It was beyond generously appointed- plenty of towels, linens, a wonderfully appointed kitchen for entertaining, teas and coffees, cozy blankets and games for the whole family. It is stylishly decorated and comfortable for a big group. It’s also centrally located in a quiet neighborhood with easy access to the freeway to the coast or inland. Our kids loved playing in the pool and adults enjoyed the sauna. Everything was immaculate and very clean. We would definitely book Yan’s home again. 10/10

Great Family Gathering Place
We came into San Diego to celebrate the life of a dear friend gone too soon. We made the best of it by gathering our family (kids, grandkids, etc.) in this beautiful home. The highlight for the g’kids was the pool, board games and toys provided. For the adults it was the combination of indoor and outdoor gathering spaces to host local family and friends in town for the same celebration. As far as the accommodations go the house was perfectly clean, beds and linens very comfortable, kitchen well stocked with the basics and the host was the most responsive we’ve ever had to our few needs & questions. This home is a place we will gladly come back to.
