Wonderful!

Book this place. The owner is on property- living in the bar house- and is incredibly thoughtful and accommodating. Well equipped for kids. Read the details of what is included before you pack. Especially for kids stuff. We walked to ice cream, 3 beaches and a playground. Location can’t be beat.

Beautiful Property

This property is exactly as described! The location is perfect in very walkable area. The house is well maintained and has everything a family needs. The backyard garden is gorgeous! There are plenty of restaurants, ice cream shops, coffee shops, and bars within a short distance. You can walk to the moonlight beach access in a few minutes. It's also close to the touristy places like the SD Zoo and Legoland. Finally, Wendy and Paul are superb hosts! They provided us with plenty of recommendations in the area and we're quick to answer questions when we had them. We loved our stay and will definitely be back!

Home away from home

This is a very special place. Three bedrooms, so lots of room; offers so many details- a few yoga mats if you want one, a selection of beach towels, a tray for if you want breakfast in bed, boogie board or two, bbq cookout grill-- all including a lovely private yard with lush,exotic plants and an outdoor table. We absolutely loved it. On street parking wasn't difficult

The hype is true!

Our stay was perfection! Wendy and Paul are wonderful hosts, and the home is one of the most well-equipped rentals we’ve ever stayed at. The outdoor space is beautiful, and location is great too—walking distance to restaurants and beach. We would absolutely stay again. Look no further!

Charming home

This was a lovely home, very well-stocked. We were a couple with our adult son. We didn't need the third bedroom for sleeping, so the sofa bed was closed and made a wonderful second sitting area, in addition to the living room. There were two lovely outdoor seating areas, and there was additional seating in the front of the house. Wendy was kind enough to stop by on our first morning; she was warm and helpful with tips about our stay. There were just two drawbacks to the home: 1. The shower in the main bathroom was not usable, because the showerhead had been installed too low (perhaps it could be replaced with a handheld showerhead), and 2. the dryer was very weak and required multiple cycles. But overall, I'm giving it five stars, because it was a very nice home.
