Family Gathering

Everything was wonderful. Loved the property, hosts, amenities, and all the wonderful things San Diego has to offer. Couldn’t have asked for a better property to stay at. Mission Hill was so close to everything and had that homey feeling. We had the entire second floor and kept the balcony patio doors open in the evening for cool pacific breezes. Perfect for our family of 5 (4 adults and baby). Thanks so much to our hosts!

Top notch property, tranquil neighborhood

After a hectic 7-day cruise to the Pacific coast of Mexico and 2-day babysitting stint of our 2-yr old granddaughter at Disneyland, my wife and I were ready for a relaxing, quiet few days in San Diego. We hit the jackpot with this Mission Hills property. Beautifully decorated, excellent amenities, 2-minute walk to a coffeehouse and convenience store…we couldn’t ask for more. So while my daughter and her husband gallivanted around San Diego’s tourist spots, we chillaxed the entire time. Our thanks to Bob and Melinda for being great hosts.

The Best

We've been staying in Mission Hills since 2013. We always come out in February to get out of the gloom of Louisville weather. We've stayed several times in 3 different VRBO's - all of which have been very nice but the all around best has been Casa Monticello. Melinda and Bill have done a terrific job on restoration and the location is wonderful. Close to everything either by walking, Trolley or car. The house is well kept and everything from the interaction with the owners to the ease of check in was easy going. Great place.

About the host

Hosted by Melinda

We are native Southern Californians and on our 1st date 30+ years ago we drove through the beautiful Mission Hills neighborhood remarking how we would like to live here someday! Now that we are both retired we have realized our dream.

Why they chose this property

Casa Montecito is a historic home built in 1913. In 1923 it was converted into a duplex with upper and lower units. We reside in the downstairs unit. Mission Hills is a special place. A quiet, residential, walkable and safe neighborhood. We are sure you will enjoy it!
