Tulum Retreat

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Loved that the location was close to all the attractions and restaurants we were interested in visiting. The kids and adults loved the pool and games in the outdoor area. The outdoor area is also very well designed with different zones. The home is set up so guests can easily be all be together in the main entertaining area. The island is large and has a good amount of seating. I feel like the owners really put thought into all aspects of the rental property for ease of usage.

Amazing Vacation Getaway

Our group and I came in on the first weekend of December for a bachelor trip and couldn’t have picked a better place to stay! The location is central to just about all of the top things to do in SD, while also being ridiculously gorgeous and packed with stuff to do. The backyard with the pool, spa, bonfire, etc. is EXACTLY as it looks in the photos. You literally cannot go wrong with staying here.

This house was PERFECT for us!!

7 women, celebrating 30 years of “Girls Night Out” monthly get-togethers. We each had a real bed, the hot tub was relaxing after long days of walking, the fire pit so nice, room at the dining table to play card games, SOOOOO much to do in the immediate vicinity,

Great in town oasis

The house is a beautiful private oasis close to everything in San Diego. The outdoor area is amazing with so much charm and you are minutes away from all the tourist attractions and fun. Perfect house for a family group. Host was very attentive to any questions or concerns.

A perfect place for all 10 of this family!

We are a family of 10, from the ages of 8-88. The location is ideal for coming and going to all the activities, hikes, beaches, balboa park, zoo, restaurants and an easy trip to the airport. While here at the home base there was always fun to be had with the pool, hot tub, outdoor fire place, ping pong and more. My only advice is be sure to read the “other things” for the extra fees for heating the pool and hot tub.

Great place!

We stayed for my bachelorette trip and it was perfect! The home was clean, organized, and spacious. It was also at a great location and was nearby lots of good food and activities in the city. The host were very communicative and answered all of our questions and concerns throughout our stay. My friends and I were surprised with how beautiful the home was and how it fit 12 people comfortably. I would stay here again~

Okay stay

The house was beautiful and looked similar to the photos. Check in was simple and easy. Everything was wiped down and appeared clean but the floors were dirty. I reached out to the owners about a problem with bugs. They were in the kitchen cabinets, dishwasher, and on the counter. I understand some bugs are typical but there were a lot. I bought food to cook throughout our stay but ended up not using most of it because I didn’t feel comfortable cooking in the kitchen . The owners couldn’t get pest control out over the holiday weekend so their solution was to use the bug spray under the sink. I asked where I could find more paper towels and I was told under the sink. When I mentioned they weren’t there, nothing else was said so I went to the store to buy more (the vrbo information said these were included). We were also out of toilet paper. The pool began to flood and the breaker blew when two guests were using a blow dryer. These are all minor problems but when tied in with the bugs and sending several messages throughout the stay, it was a little frustrating. We all loved the pool and backyard space. This helped the overall stay by far! We comfortably fit our 13 guests.
