There is signage around the home to assist with the use of amenities and questions that you may have during your stay. We are available too, even after hours-give us a call!

Last Minute Booking Policy: If a guest books with us directly or on any OTA such as Airbnb and VRBO, within 72 hours of arrival, verification credentials are required. By making a payment on the reservation, the guest agrees to comply with our last minute booking policy.
To properly vet a guest with such short notice requires the following; a “selfie” photo specifically of the booking guest’s face and holding either a Driver’s License, Passport or State ID photo under their chin. We are just looking for a name to match and the photo on the ID to match that of the person in the selfie. This can be sent by email or text to our company email address. Additionally, we need to confirm guest details such as payment, contact information, applicable check-in time, number of guests and ages, any pets, etc.
This process is required, and if a guest refuses to comply then the reservation will be canceled. We have found this procedure to be successful in avoiding fraud, and protecting all parties! We appreciate your cooperation and we are available to help with any questions.
• Pet Policy: Pets are permitted at this property with an ADDITIONAL FEE. The fee is $200 plus tax for the first pet, and $100 plus tax for the second pet. Please be advised: THIS FEE IS EXTRA, IT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE BUNDLED RATE AT BOOKING. We require additional details about your pet before approving and processing payment for the pet fee.
Rate Policy: Prices change on a daily basis so the rates you see today may be higher or lower when booking!
Age Policy: We do not typically rent to guests under the age of 25 or large parties. Please contact us prior to booking to see how we may accommodate your group.
After booking: We manage properties on behalf of our owners. Upon confirming your booking, we will send you a rental agreement for your upcoming stay which you will need to complete. This agreement reviews our terms and conditions, house rules and policies, and what to expect of your stay. We will also contact you within 24 hours of the booking to obtain contact information and to address any questions or concerns you may have regarding your upcoming visit. The check-in details will not be shared until the rental agreement has been signed, payment has been made, and the guest has connected with one of our guest services agents.
In addition to completing our electronic rental agreement, you will also be required to participate in our identity verification process. The Verify Hub service is offered through Autohost; an intelligent guest screening software that automates ID verifications, background and credit checks, security deposits and more, helping to improve guest experience and safety. Please note: for the credit card verification, a $2 hold will be placed on the card to run the report. This hold will never process and will fall off automatically within 7 days.
Property Appearance: Vacation rentals in San Diego are for the most part, second homes for the owners. Therefore, some furniture or decor may differ from what is pictured because the owners needed or wanted to replace something. Professional photos are expensive and we can not re-photograph the rental every time something is changed but we do maintain the listing content with any notable furnishing changes especially related to sleeping arrangements. (*Please note: We do not give refunds because a piece of furniture or artwork has changed)

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you and your family enjoyed your stay and that the kids had such a great time in the pool. It’s wonderful to know the home and location worked well for your San Diego adventures. We'd love to welcome you back anytime!
We really enjoyed our stay at this house! The location was perfect, the home was very clean, and the pool, hot tub, and outdoor seating area were definitely our favorite part of the property. The house did have a distinct smell, but it wasn’t strong enough to keep us from renting again. The only thing we missed was having a full-size mirror, which would have been nice. Overall, a great rental that we would happily return to!

The back yard pool and hot tub are definitely the highlight of the home. The kitchen lacks essentials, such as minimal glassware and cleanliness. Pots and pans were rusty and required cleaning prior to using. Ice maker worked but did not dispense the ice. Most wood surfaces were sticky and required cleaning prior to using. House requires updating to meet a five star rating. The vacuum in the pool made it hard for the kids to swim with loose rocks on the hot tub. we could not get the fireplace to light but could smell the propane. Bedding was good - plenty of towels were provided. Neighbors were very close on all sides including backyard neighbors look down directly into the pool and hot tub area. We had a full-size rental SUV and it would not fit in the garage or driveway. Overall if you lower your expectations the house could be acceptable. Price per day seemed high for an older home which needs updating.

Thank you for your detailed feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the pool, hot tub, and the provided bedding and towels.
We do want to note that the issues you mentioned—such as the kitchen items, ice maker, sticky surfaces, fireplace, and pool vacuum—were not reported to us during your stay. Had we known, we could have assisted immediately to address them and ensure a more comfortable experience.
We hope despite these concerns, you were able to enjoy your time, and we’d be happy to host you again with a more seamless experience.
We were very happy with our stay at this property. The pool and hot tub are awesome. We also enjoyed using the grill almost every day. We would definitely stay here again.

Thanks for sharing your experience! We invite you to stay with us again.
Had a family reunion and we all enjoyed this house so much! Lots of space and the outdoor area is beautiful and relaxing. We spent most of our time in the pool and hot tub. Had fun family bbqs. Beds were comfy and the house was clean. Management was responsive and check in/out was easy. It was hard to go back to reality.
Mandie’s Family Home was an excellent place to stay for three couples to relax and enjoy a long weekend in San Diego. The property management team and maintenance were very responsive and addressed concerns right away. It was a beautiful property from the pool to the home, highly recommend!

We enjoyed our stay very much
We attended a family wedding from Boston and our son and family joined us from Washington state
The pool and spa area were a great plus for a 14 and 11 year old
Overall good location and very comfortable
The house was a perfect size for our two families. It was equipped with everything we needed, including boogie boards, beach chairs & as many pool floaties as possible.

Great little home in a good location. All the amenities we needed. The pool was fantastic, along with the outdoor cooking space.
Only negative was the inability to see the sea world fireworks as the add claimed.

Thanks for your review! Depending on weather conditions, the fireworks can be seen right from the backyard!
Great property, super clean, and great communication with hosts. The pool was great for our little kids, and the house was well stocked with pool toys and floaties. They had water wings for infants. Would stay here again!
