We had an amazing time at this property! It was the perfect size for our party of 20. Dylan was great to work with and attended our every need. The property was right across from Sunset Cliffs and provided amazing sunset views from the front deck! Our next family reunion in San Diego will definitely be at this property!

Great house at sunset cliffs

This house is perfect for a large group staying in the sunset cliffs area. It has several comfortable rooms, a great kitchen, beautiful views of the cliffs, and easy access (right across the street!). Joseph was very communicative and accommodating during our stay. We did not get to use the pool and hot tub during our stay but both seem great. You even have the option to have the pool heated! Overall, a great option for a large group.

Location is amazing!

The location and property amenities were fantastic! Beautiful view, an enjoyable pool & hot tub and a great fenced yard for kids! The kitchen is well stocked - we cooked for 15 and had plenty of dishes, glassware, and pots & pans. The host was very responsive to issues that arose. Negatives: The kitchen is small for the number of bedrooms and access to the bunk bed is funky.

Perfect Place to Stay

The house was absolutely gorgeous and the views were amazing. The location is perfect, close to San Diego but far enough out of the city where is has a relaxing vibe. Our group was large and had 20 people with 5 different families staying ages ranging from 74 to 8 and the house never felt crowded. Everyone loved the pool and hot tub and everyone loved exploring the coastline. The property management team is amazing to work with, very nice and accommodating! Book this house and you will not regret it! Will book again when we return to San Diego!

Extended family vacation

We enjoyed our 7 day stay at Villa Mar Vista. The location could not be better. The backyard, pool and hot tub were a highlight as was the fire pit on the front deck for our sunset gathering place! The beach a mile away at OB was amazing. Any issues with the operation of certain things were handled promptly by Joseph and/or his son. It might be time for a new BBQ but we made it work. Thank you for a great relaxing vacation.

Family vacation

We had 16 of us staying at this property. Ages ranged from 3 year old, to adults. Everyone had their own bed, kids used pull out couch so they could all sleep together. Location is perfect for ocean view, watched dolphins from the living room. Pool was perfect for the kids, deck had an awesome view. Property was easy to get to and parking was never a problem. Would recommend.

Great Place and Responsive Host

We had a work team getaway for four days at Sunset Cliffs. Joseph was prompt, helpful and very responsive to all our needs. The location was fantastic and the pool was sparkling! The house was plenty big enough to have the 10 of us, each with his/ her own bed. We didn't feel cramped at all. We all really enjoyed ourselves in this relaxed home. I would like to kindly suggest to Joseph, however, that some of the furniture (especially around the pool) needs replacement and the cleanliness of the pull out sofa bed I used to sleep in was questionable. The power tripped several times when we were there and we needed to call to get access to the power box. Joseph was very helpful and responsive but this may need to be upgraded soon as well.

Superb Location

The location of this house is wonderful with splendid ocean views for walking and watching sunsets. It is close to restaurants, gas stations, and grocery stores. The house has lots of open space for large groups and all the possible kitchen amenities you could want! The backyard and pool area is splendid and great for relaxing. The ping pong table and pool toys were thoroughly enjoyed by family members. On check -in the hot tub was not working, the problem was resolved by quick responsiveness from the owner. Paying additional funds for heating the pool is a waste as the water temperature is not reliable. We were very respectful of the neighbours and ensuring quiet time after 8 pm. It would be helpful to have some lighting in the pool area as darkness comes early by 6 pm and so the pool area is not accessible from 6-8 pm due to darkness. There was a vending machine for junk food snacks - something our family didn’t want or need. This house has enough plates, cutlery, glasses and china to host large gatherings. There is ample parking on the street for several cars. A house to consider for large family gatherings and vacations!

Almost Perfect But...

The Good: -The kitchen is well-equipped with a large gas range. There are ample dishes, cups, cutlery, pans and appliances. -The outdoor space is unbeatable. The combo of pool, hot tub, wading pool, grassed area and patios is the best I've ever stayed at at any rental. The fire pit at the front allowed for quiet late night chats with amazing views of the stars. - The neighbourhood, specifically the proximity to Ocean Beach made this an amazing place to spend the week. -Management was very accommodating and helpful. The "Meh": - The beds and sofas were outdated. A couple of the beds are completely unsuitable for adults (top bunk and a trundle bed). The rest are old and have obvious signs of human impressions. These were fine for a group of men to pass out on after a night surfing and drinking, but if you have anyone looking for beauty sleeps, this isn't your place. - The TVs. You won't spend much time on media, but 4/5 TVs at this rental are ancient, and some with faded image quality. The Bad: - I cannot overstate this, but the neighbour across the alley will try to ruin your time there. She called in a noise complaint at 4:38 PM on Saturday while we were out playing spikeball in the backyard. She went as far to take a video of us through the cracks of the fence. If you cannot be quiet at ALL HOURS OF THE DAY, do not book here. Noise rules are 50 dB during the day, and 40 dB at 8PM. I would imagine her ire extends to kids splashing loudly in the pool. -WIFI is slow

wonderful for multi-generational family gathering

Very comfortable house in a wonderful area with plenty of parking, plenty of household supplies and kitchen amenities -- location is hard to beat, very easy for us to go to many spots in the area and provided wonderful walking to enjoy the views. Host was great - very easy to communicate with and quick to offer any help if needed. Plenty of linens, toiletries, beds, and space to spread out, as well as games,hot tub, and pool and outside toys to play with while there. Kitchen was well equipped for a group as we ate most meals here. Front deck was a great place to gather and enjoy the views and nice San Diego weather. I would definitely recommend to other large groups wanting a comfortable, relaxing place to stay and enjoy the area.
