The condo was very clean and comfortable. It is an older complex that is starting to show its age, but the grounds are gorgeous and the view is beautiful.

Excellent view. The unit had 20 steps down to the condo. For handicapped people, this was not good. We advise that you include in the promotion that it has 20 steps to the condo. Thank you

The place was a great deal for us since San Diego is not cheap. Great having a fireplace in unit. Spacious overall. I wish the bathroom setup was a bit different but the bonus space in the bedroom with a curtain separating worked out great for us with our young baby to have a separate space. Our hosts stopped by as they vacation/live in the unit next door which they also own. You are in a pretty good spot compared to the garage spot, beach access, and pool/hottub. The kitchen is a bit of a weak point in terms of what they have and the functionality of it. There is an in-unit washer and dryer which was a big perk too. I wish we didnt need physical keys and could just used the keypad on the door. We had some maintenance issues including a door that would not lock and they wouldnt come until the next day which was pretty sketchy of them. The fan in living room did not work but got replaced the next day.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad the spacious layout, fireplace, bonus bedroom setup, and in‑unit washer/dryer made your visit comfortable. The location within our gated community, along with easy access to the garage, beach stairs, and pool/hot tub, is something many guests love, and we’re happy it worked well for you. We also appreciate your notes about the kitchen setup and key access. Regarding the door, we want to reassure you that the unit includes a secondary safety mechanism, and guest safety is always a major priority for us. Your comments help us continue improving the experience for future stays. Thank you again for staying with us and for taking the time to share your thoughts. We hope to welcome you back.

Stunning view, great location, well equipped kitchen, everything was just perfect. You can chop up your veggies whilst looking at the ocean! They provide all the extras you need for the beach, so just show up! The pools were large and great for the end of days after fun at the beach in front. 4th of July fireworks were just up the street. It was a really magical vacation. Thanks!
