We had a fabulous time at the property. The layout was great with comfortable seating, a nice dining area, a great kitchen and well appointed bedrooms. The multiple outside seating areas were also perfect, whether you were in the private, lower areas or up higher where you could sit and watch the activity at the airport. The house is very conveniently located and the host was a dream to work with.

Kim you are the best host! This home and property are beautiful, literally had everything we needed, including binoculars, the view is amazing! Great location, so close to airport, but once you close the door, all the street noise disappears. Perfect place to stay if you're in San Diego for MCRD graduation. Thank you Kim for all the recommendations for restaurants, grocery store and things to see and do. Hundred times better than staying in any hotel!
