"No huge complaints from our end.. this house has everything you needed. The Keurig wasn't functioning properly and Pete immediately brought down a backup so we didn't go without our morning joe! Unfortunately Pete had closed the pool due to cooler temperatures a couple weeks before we arrived..a bit of a bummer that we wish we would have known before we arrived as we were planning to use it.. Even if it was cold. But ultimately we understood the situation and it was a mild bummer. Also you...

"We had previously stayed in Kim’s property several years ago for a family vacation in San Diego and chose to do so again in 2025 (this time with four kids instead of three). We learned she had just remodeled the place, and the changes were great! We especially liked the king size bed in the front room. Best of all, even though the property was fully remodeled, she kept all the toys, books, and other touches that made the property so memorable for our children. Also, Kim is very communicative and...

"I love how close this property was to the Amtrak train station and Little Italy. The only negative things about it was there was not a microwave and the tv was not working and no response from the host about the tv or any effort in fixing it. The remote needed recharging and there was only 1 channel available. Otherwise, the unit was clean and another thing to note is the front door is directly on the street. "

"This was the best place I have stayed with VRBO!! 10/10 stars. I felt safe, clean and comfortable bungalow, near eateries, shopping and the host was great! Communication with the host was awesome, they answered my call and kept me informed of little details of my rental. It’s a hour or so walk to Sunset Cliffs and worth it!! 20 minutes walk to dog beach & beach. I’d stay here again!! "

"We visited over President's Day weekend and enjoyed this property. It is tucked into a very cute neighborhood with many neighbors. We enjoyed walking to nearby canyons and coffee shops and restaurants. Street parking was very easy and the location was very convenient. We ate out and got take out during our stay-- the kitchen is not fully equipped with enough silverware/plates/coffee maker but had the necessities to get us through. The outdoor space was great, although there was no propane for...

"The cottage was perfect for two people and the host was exceptional. Francesca made us feel most welcome, almost part of the family. It was an easy walk to Morley Field, to University Heights, Hillcrest, and South Park. We walked home from the Zoo and Balboa Park Museums, but drove to the Maritime Museum and the Library downtown. We'll definitely be back."

"Highly recommend for an interesting kind of VRBO rental that is as comfortable as it is fun and rejuvenating. The yacht has everything you need for an enjoyable stay and you won't want to leave when your time is up! Elizabeth and Tim are fantastic hosts - personable and professional and they handle everything from start to finish. Sunbathe, swim, kayak, fish or do nothing and just relax. Beds are comfortable, bathroom are fully equipped. Can't say enough positive about this 'property'. "
