3 BR Urban Oasis with Pool and Spa in Great Area
I am a San Diego local, but my family was coming to town and we needed more space. I picked this place because I knew my sister and brother-in-law would love being able to walk to all the restaurants and brewery nearby and my 6 year old nephew would get a lot of use out of the pool. The place exceeded my expectations, it was perfect for everyone. We spent a lot of time in the backyard swimming or playing board games, and my Mom got a lot of use out of the hot tub. Communication with the host was excellent and the place was comfortable and clean. The only downside is my family might visit too often now!

Sunny SD l Pool l BBQ l Pool Loungers l Sleeps 10
Cute home with great vibes. Worked perfect for our group of 6 friends to have a little vacay.

Bright and spacious home with views, pool & spa.
We had an incredible stay at Miguel’s Airbnb! The highlight was definitely the pool – it was sparkling clean and well-maintained. Everything was exactly as described, and Miguel was a fantastic host, ensuring we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing, private and hassle-free getaway!

Oasis with ocean views/Pool/Hot tub! Sleeps 10!
Van was very friendly, even had great food recommendations for my family and I. The home was one of the best Airbnbs I’ve ever stayed in. My children thought we were in a place of royalty with how well put together the house was. Loved our stay and will definitely be back

5BR | Salt Water Pool | Hot Tub | Fire Pit| BBQ
The place was clean and well-kept. The 5 rooms had comfortable beds and individual A/C units, adding to the comfort. The backyard was great for hosting. The only minor criticism was the lack of instructions for the fire pit. I managed to turn it on successfully; it produced a strong fire, perfect for cozy nights. There was adequate seating for everyone. Inside, the house felt clean, including the bathrooms. The living room had a large couch and the dining area had a large table, accommodating our group's size. A small improvement would be to hang the towels in the bathrooms to avoid a scavenger hunt. The wifi was down upon arrival and never regained function despite troubleshooting, but my cellular service (T-mobile) was sufficient. The host was very communicative and responsive throughout my stay. I didn’t receive dining recommendations, but it was easy to find places to eat.

Canyon House: Sunset View Tranquil Private Pool
Jessica’s home is beautiful and located in a lovely neighborhood that is close proximity to many things. We came to celebrate the graduation of my niece and Jessica’s home was a great place for the family to connect, rest between events and spend time together! Her home is beautifully appointed and was perfect for our stay. Jessica is a great host who communicates with her guests and is very responsive! Her home is filled with good energy and I would definitely book again! for future family events when visiting San Diego!

Entire Home Retreat* Private Pool & Hot Tub
If you have a family with children this is the PERFECT place! Not only are there plenty of toys and board games to keep the kids entertained, there is also a pool and jacuzzi. This rental even had toothbrushes and toothpaste along with sunscreen and aloe in case you forgot.

Paradise View Staycation Q Bed, Sofa-bed dog bed
Wow this place is amazing! As soon was we walked in, from the decor to the ambiance. You go from Spring Valley to being transported to a place of paradise. There is no place like this, I’m telling you guys. If you think the front yard is beautiful, wait till you go to the backyard. We felt so at home and the vibes are just incredible. Did I mention it was dog friendly?! We bring our dog everywhere and this was perfect. Salvacion is a super host for a reason. She’s responsive, very easy to communicate with, and her home is beautiful. I have family in the area, we’ll definitely be coming back and staying here. So glad we found this place!

Lavish pool Villa In Mt. Helix, close to beaches
We stayed at Zeina and Mo's place for one week with our East Coast and West Coast children and grands--6 adults and 6 children in all from ages 2-12. We could not have been more pleased. The house was meticulously clean and was spacious enough for all. The kitchen was well stocked with all we needed to prepare meals at home. An added plus was an outdoor grill under a cabana like space with a table for 6 and outdoor counter to provide additional seating. The pool is larger than it appears in the pictures on the web site. The whole outdoor space was clean and welcoming and proved to be a center piece of our stay. There were plentiful and soft towels for bathing and the pool. Zeina and Mo were promptly responsive to any questions or concerns we had. We left with many fond memories of our week together, in large part due to to how comfortable and pleasant we felt about our stay was at Zeina and Mo's house.

Mountain Top 4 Bdrm Home with Spectacular Views!
I had an incredible stay and can’t say enough great things about this place and our host! The home was spotless, exactly as described, and even more beautiful in person. Every detail was thoughtfully prepared, from the cozy bedding to the well-stocked kitchen. It truly felt like a home away from home. Our host was communicative, kind, and made the entire process smooth from start to finish. Check-in was easy, and they went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. You can tell they really care about their guests’ experience. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, comfortable, and stress-free stay. Thank you for everything!

FunHaus | Pool Days, Hot Tub Nights & Game Time
A quiet, peaceful neighborhood and responsive host! We walked in to a welcome sign which was super thoughtful. The place looks exactly like the photos. We lucked out and stayed a beautiful sunny weekend. The pool was warm and the perfect size for the family. Game room and movie room were super easy to turn on. Amazing stay!!

Lovely Unique Retro house with beautiful yard
We live in the area and originally booked for 30-days while our home was being renovated. Renovations took a bit longer then expected and we extended to 5-weeks. Hosts were very accommodating to our changing dates. Home was perfect for our stay. Couldn't of asked for a better place for our home away from home!
