Great Stay

We could not have been happier!!! The condo was beautiful and clean. Great location as well. Would highly recommend to others and will definitely stay there again. Besides it having the tightest garage width I’ve ever parked in, everything else was on point.

Fabulous Beach Stay

This property is absolutely wonderful. The location is perfect- so close to the beach, and the neighborhood has good restaurants. As others have said, the kitchen has everything one could need for meals at home. The beds were super comfy. And there were tons of beach chairs, towels, boogie boards and umbrellas. We will definitely be back!

Perfect Place!

Place was wonderful! Beds were super comfortable and the sheets were the softest I have ever layed in! Property was perfect distance from the bay and the beach! We were able to fit a Yukon as well as a Honda civic in garage which was a huge plus to not have to find parking! We will definitely be booking this place again!

San Diego Spring Break

The condo was exactly as advertised. Would definitely stay there again when we return to San Diego. Location was great down by the beach and it was super quiet. Had a couple rainy days and it was still enough room to just hang out and relax. Thanks Again.

Family Trip from the East Coast

This was our first family trip to the west coast and we could not have chosen a better place to stay. Perfect location between the beach and the bay with easy access to wherever you wanted to go. The house was spotless and there was plenty of room for everyone. The kitchen was excellent for making some meals in and the laundry came in handy every day. We used the beach towels, chairs, umbrellas and bikes provided so there was no need to rent anything or bring extra with us. Overall top notch all around. Highly recommend.

What a great place! Location was perfect. The park behind the place was an added bonus to the stay. The patio of the kitchen got a lot of use. Held all of us comfortably. Its where we played cards and board games. We used the fire pit almost every night. Eight of us in the place fit comfortably. The property management where perfect for a few requests we had. Would highly recommend this property. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Great Location. Great home!

The entire process was painless. Home is beautiful. Loved having the beach gear in the garage. Walk to Belmont Park and the beach is super easy. Garage is very narrow so recommend a small compact car as your vehicle. Only downside was keeping the air conditioner at 72 degrees. This could be discomforting during the hot summer months. We keep our own home at 69-70 so we felt stuffy at 72. We all loved our stay. Highly recommend.

Would book again!

Pros: Location was fantastic. Just a few houses in either direction to either beach or bay. Views from front balcony were lovely. Perfect sunset views. The house itself was perfectly appointed. I honestly have not ever seen a kitchen so well stocked at a rental. The beds and linens were amazingly comfortable (my teen wanted to get the name of the mattress and bedding). Furnishings were clean and cozy. Lots of extra blankets and pillows. *could have used a few more beach towels but plenty of bath towels. Management company was communicative and always gave a prompt response. Check in/out was a breeze. Cons: 2 hours before arrival we were notified that the AC/heat units were not functional and would not be repaired until after our stay. They DID provide space heaters and fans for our comfort. Fortunately, the weather was lovely and with the heaters/fans were perfectly comfortable. 2nd day the clothes washer would not drain and was not able to be repaired until after our stay. This was VERY uncomfortable as we had packed counting on being able to wash clothes. We were told we could use a laundromat 5 mins away (NOT what I want to be doing on my PTO- especially at this price pt.). We understand unexpected things happen, but 2 big ticket items during our stay was a bummer. The owner did compensate for our inconvenience which was a nice touch (had to ask though). Overall would absolutely stay here again. Our family had such a great time we extended our stay an extra day!

Accurate description

Every review so far has been a 5 and we can see why. Everything was described accurately. You won’t need anything they have surf boards, boogie boards, bikes, wagon, toys, everything for the beach. You cross one light to get to the beach it was perfect. It’s In a clean neighborhood. The bedding was amazing. Beds were firm but the bedding and pillows were so comfotable. The fire pit table on the patio was awesome. We loved everything about our stay. This part of the beach was so soft and so close to the Belmont park.

Amazing Home

We stayed here for a long weekend and this house was beautiful! Home seemed brand new, was decorated very nicely and was spacious for our two families that stayed. Everything you could possibly need, this house had. The garage was filled with towels, chairs, boogie and surf boards, sand toys and anything you'd need for the beach. The house is just a short walk to the bay or the beach. It is very conveniently located! Wish we could stay here all summer!!!!

Great stay - once we figured out the AC!

Overall a great stay and we've rented a few times in the area before. Very new and quiet area (even though Belmont park is only a few blocks away). PLEASE READ: the A/C units in each room need to all be set to the same mode (Heat, Cool, Fan, etc) in order for it to not error out. We didn't realize this and had to call a maintenance person to come out. I didn't see any notes about this in the rental info--there was some note above the thermostats about keeping it between 72-78F but nothing about keeping all the modes together. I would recommend to put this in the online book to help other guests. Other than that, everything worked great the entire 5 days we were there. - very close to beach and within 15min of almost anywhere in SD - lots of beach equipment in garage - great appliances (stove, oven, toaster oven, washer, dryer, etc)
