We came to San Diego to visit with our extended family. This home was a perfect “home away from home” for us, our adult children and the grandchildren. This home had absolutely everything we might needed including things like high chairs and pack’n’plays for the babies. All necessities (like shampoo, hand soap, paper towels, trash bags, spices, etc) were in the home that you normally need to run out and buy quickly. Mo corresponded with us regularly and check in and check out was a breeze. I think the adults had more fun in the arcade room than the kids! The outdoor space was fantastic. For the first time in years, we cooked and grilled most of our meals at home instead of taking our big group out to restaurants. We will definitely return to this property year after year. Thanks Mo and crew!

This home was fantastic, everything the listing said it would be. The first thing I noticed when I walked in the door was how clean it smelled and how neat everything was. We were a group of 11 including 5 children age 1 1/2 to 16. There was plenty to do on the property for everyone the kids especially loved the arcade, pool table and pool/ hot tub. The beds were super comfortable and there were plenty of towels both for showering and the pool. Mo was always quick to respond to any issues that arose. We would definitely stay in this home again.

We had a great stay. The property was comfortable for my group of 11 adults. Plenty of space for everyone. The game room was a hit. Many of us would book this property again especially if we include our children since the house had kids furniture ready (crib, bunk beds, high chair, etc.).

Big house with lots of areas for sitting out around the pool or little garden nooks. Game room and pool table was fun for everyone. This was a very clean and well cared for house and was probably the most equipped house we have stayed in with all appliances and dishes utensils etc! Highly recommend this place!!

The property was a beautiful mountain oasis. It was a great place to relax with our close friends and their families. The pool was very well maintained and I was actually able to be in the water (super sensitive skin) and did not get a rash from it. We had rental vehicles and San Diego was easy to tour from here. With everything (sea world, mission beach and the zoo) being a mere 20-30 minute drive.

Perfect family vacation destination!

We had THEE BEST stay at this property! As a family with 6 teenagers, there was something for everyone at this home. The pool and the hot tub were amazing, the lounging area with the outdoor kitchen/grill and TV made for fun days and nights. The arcade room was non-stop action for our trip, ending each day with a family Mario Kart challenge! Mo was an incredible host, very responsive and clear communication for each detail of the home. This house has something to offer for everyone, I cannot recommend it enough! We will definitely keep this one in the books for future reservations. Thanks Mo for sharing your home with us!

Best Vacation Rental!

We had a large group of 12 family members, including myself, my husband, our adult children and their spouses, and our three grandchildren under three years old. This vacation home had everything we could possibly need and more! It was stocked with every dish, utensil, and appliance that you could ever need, including silverware for the babies!They also had two high chairs, a crib, two pack and plays, a baby walker and several other items for guest use at the property. It was also well stocked with plenty of towels, dish soap, laundry soap, toilet paper, and any other supplies that guests might need for their stay. The property was almost too good! Our family never wanted to leave it to explore the city and enjoy the outings I had planned! The pool and hot tub were amazing and well stocked with plenty of floaties and life-vests for the babies.The entire outdoor area was great! We enjoyed grilling by the pool and making smores at the outdoor fireplace.I can’t say enough good things about the home. We will definitely stay again if we return to the area!
