Family-friendly holiday rentals in East County, San Diego

We are so grateful to have been able to stay at Gwynn's place, it is so peaceful and lovely. Like a secret garden getaway. We loved all the small touches, and beauty of the space. Gwynn made us feel very welcome and comfortable! The pool is amazing and the outdoor spaces are delightful. Can't wait to stay here again.

I really enjoyed my time spent there. Not only the scenery was nice, but it was also quiet and peaceful. I also especially appreciated Jeffery’s hospitality and kindness and I would definitely recommend going back!

I cannot even begin to describe how wonderful our stay was! Greg and Leslie made us feel right at home, and it was such a treat to stay in such a historical home!! the tub was wonderful, the views were beautiful to wake up to, the home was well stocked with treats and coffee, i could go on and on! we were able to walk to restaurants that were just a few blocks away (i am 7 months pregnant and the walk was a breeze). parking is great, the pool was amazing and relaxing. everything was amazing. would highly recommend

Place and location were awesome. Highly recommended. Well done!

The VIEWS!!! Absolutely breathtaking. We could’ve spent the entire trip just soaking in that ocean view—it was seriously next-level. From sunrise to sunset, it was pure magic. We absolutely loved Kate’s place and Kate herself! She was the best host we’ve ever had. The property was beautiful, peaceful, and had such a fun, quirky charm that made it feel like a hidden gem. The bed was insanely comfortable, the robes were perfectly cozy, and the coffee? Delicious. The art supplies and hot tub facing the ocean were truly to die for—I didn’t even want to leave to explore San Diego because I was so content right there. We slept with the back door open to hear the waves crash all night long and let the ocean breeze in. The neighborhood felt super safe and had such a great vibe. We already know we’ll be back to see Kate every year. No doubt about it.

Such a beautiful view from the airbnb. John was very responsive and accomodating! We even arrived to an apple pie! We had a wonderful time on our family vacation here. And the stars were absolutely beautiful from the house.

We had an amazing stay at Nicklas’s place in San Diego! The condo is beautifully renovated and right on the waterfront—waking up to those ocean views was such a treat. The kitchen and bathroom were fully stocked with everything we needed, making our stay super comfortable and convenient. You can tell a lot of thought has gone into making the space feel like a true home away from home. We would absolutely love to stay here again in the future. Highly recommend!

Had a great time, beautiful setting and so serene! Love the backyard setup and high ceilings. Great hosts too, 5 stars!

My first Airbnb but it was absolutely amazing! The cabin was so cute and so welcoming, I appreciate the binder they set up that has so much useful information about Julian and what to do for fun, questions about the cabin and appliances itself and even a little checklist of what I would need to do when checking out. They had a tv, books and games so we were never bored and enjoyed our company together here. They put a lot of care into providing us with the smoothest stay possible. We had a few meals there and we had everything we needed in tools and appliances to make them. The Little Pine was perfect! We checked in as boyfriend and girlfriend and we checked out as fiancés! I never saw it coming, he proposed to me in the actual cabin itself so this place will be apart of our hearts forever. It was one of the best stays away from home I’ve experienced for sure.

David is exactly what the reviews said about his responsiveness. My family and I can say this was our best experience ever in San Diego. We felt at home and this experience made it easy for my wife and I to conclude that when traveling with our young kids, we would be better off reserving an airbnb with a great host like David. Thank you once again for your hospitality, David.

Great location and the house had everything we needed. beautiful home, nice decoration and really nice view from the jacuzzi.

Michelle and Robyn’s place was such a wonderful place to stay and experience, my husband wanted me to note that he wishes we can give 5 billion stars for the bed alone, the entire place was well maintained clean and so comfortable. This place was very conveniently located near downtown San Diego, Coronado island, La Jolla coves, Petco Park, Balboa Park, little Italy and the marina. The home was quiet and very private with amenities that were useful. We were so pleased with our stay and would love to visit again, if you are unsure and reading reviews please take this as your sign to book here! :)

Great place! Beautiful garden. The studio is cozy but you’ll have everything you’ll need. Highly recommend.

Olga was a great host , she and her son were very welcoming , kind and communicative. She talked to us about a lot of things on gardening and was kind to share some of her plants with us. The house was perfect for a small family including a dog and was tastefully decorated with antique pictures and paraphernalia. The area in an interesting quaint neighborhood and we loved walking to the restaurants around there for food and deserts .

This little farm was so cute. Danielle and her mom were great hosts and the animals were very friendly and fun to be around. If you’re considering this place, definitely do it!

Great place, loved the covered patio. Richard and his wife are excellent hosts, would definitely stay again.

Great location and very nice room. Perfect for our stay.

Very pleased with our staying there. Place was really clean and comfortable I like how secure it was I would definitely stay there again 💜

Anthony’s apartment was just what I needed for my adult son and me. 2 twin beds in the living room worked well as another bedroom without the cost of a 2 bedroom. The kitchen is small but had all we needed to make bfast in the mornings. Helpful to have a parking spot in back and washer dryer in unit. I really enjoyed the location next to an urban park, pretty neighborhood for walks, and short walk to restaurants and coffee shop. Anthony was super helpful when we arrived.

A perfect place for our family during our short stay in San Diego. Clean, comfortable, conveniently located and excellent value. Teri also went above and beyond and we really appreciated her proactive help.

Our recent stay at Michelle’s Airbnb in Leucadia, California, was nothing short of exceptional! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that Michelle has thought of every detail to make her guests feel at home. The property is absolutely beautiful, spotlessly clean, and impeccably maintained, creating an inviting and comfortable atmosphere that rivaled the coziness of our own home. The kitchen was a standout feature, fully stocked with everything needed to whip up almost any meal. From cookware to an impressive array of spices, we had all the tools to enjoy home-cooked dinners, which made our stay even more special. It’s rare to find such a well-equipped kitchen in a vacation rental! The location is perfect for soaking in the local culture. Right on the beach, we loved taking daily walks to explore the vibrant Leucadia community. The highlight, though, was watching the sunset every evening from the living room or deck—pure magic! The views were breathtaking and made every night feel

The apartment is, well appointed, spacious & complete with everything you could want. The gardens are beyond beautiful, with lots of interesting trees and shrubbery and even a walking trail around the whole property. The pool is lovely and child safe. We felt very safe, there was an entry code for the front gate and another for our unit. The whole house is located in a beautiful, upscale area.

Vivian and John‘s cottage was a perfect place for a three day stay. Very peaceful and calm with beautiful surroundings and close to everything I needed to get to. I would love to come back at some point.

Nicolas was a great host and has a gorgeous property where my family and I felt right at home! Not once did we feel uncomfortable, everything matched the description and then some! The one question I had he responded within minutes and was very clear and consider. Would definitely book again!
