About the host
Hosted by Vacation Bliss Retreats
We are Vacation Bliss Retreats, a family-owned hospitality company based out of San Diego. We have a strong passion for hosting and sharing our city’s hidden gems, from great food to live music. Expect a clean, comfortable stay with thoughtful touches. If you need local recommendations, we've got you covered. Looking forward to hosting you!
Why they chose this property
Tucked into the rolling hills of East San Diego County, El Cajon is a chill spot that’s got a little something for everyone—whether you’re into the outdoors, hitting the shops, or just soaking up good vibes with the family.
Love nature? There are tons of ways to get outside and explore. Go for a hike up Cowles Mountain, cruise on your bike through Mission Trails, take a peaceful walk around Lake Murray, or cast a line at El Capitan Reservoir. The area is full of trails, parks, and adventure—perfect for stretching your legs and taking in those sunny SoCal views.
Craving the beach? You’re only about 25 minutes from the coast. Ocean Beach, Pacific Beach, La Jolla Shores, and Coronado Beach are all close by—great for sunbathing, swimming, or just watching the waves. And if you’re into epic sunsets, Sunset Cliffs is the spot. Bring your camera!
Springtime is extra special when the wildflowers bloom out in Anza-Borrego Desert State Park—totally worth the drive. And if you’re up for a little road trip, the charming towns of Julian (apple pie, anyone?) and Borrego Springs are both just over an hour away.
There’s also no shortage of entertainment. From Vegas-style casinos and golf courses to local rodeos and festivals, you’ll always find something going on. For shopping and a movie night, Parkway Plaza has you covered with a big indoor mall, IMAX theater, and plenty of stores to browse.
And when you're ready to explore more, you’re still close to San Diego favorites—Downtown, SeaWorld, Liberty Station, SDSU, Balboa Park, Old Town, and so many breweries and tasting rooms. Everything’s just a short drive away.
