Romantic Cozy Cabin of Western Red Cedar

JanaeRating, 5 stars2 months ago
This was my second time staying at the cedar cabin and upon arrival, I was greeted by the sweet owner and her friend holding baby tortoises!!! Always a unique and homey experience here that sparks my inherent reptile curiosity. The cabin itself is cozy AF with an epic HOT bathtub. I’m always sad to leave!

Ocean/Lagoon View/New Luxury Casita /Walk To Beach

AlexRating, 5 stars2 days ago
Joe and DeeDee are great hosts to their friends, family, and casita guests and it shows! Everything is thoughtfully laid out and set-up for the guest experience and all the finishes in their casita were beautiful. It was by far the best designed and stocked kitchen in any AirBnb we've stayed in, every room was immaculately clean, the bed and couch were super comfortable, and the bathroom was luxe. There's a private green space in front with a great view of the lagoon and beach. This was perfect for our home base during our wedding week, and wonderful that it was dog-friendly too! Will definitely be sending the link to anyone we know staying in North County San Diego.

2 Bdrm Condo + Parking in Heart of Mission Beach!

RayRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
I recently had the pleasure of staying at Carl's property in the Pacific/Mission Beach area, and it was an absolute delight! This charming rental is perfectly situated near an array of coffee shops and restaurants, making it an ideal spot for foodies and coffee lovers alike. The cottage itself is beautifully decorated, exuding a warm and inviting atmosphere. It felt like a true home away from home, with all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. The attention to detail in the decor and furnishings really made a difference. One of the highlights of our visit was the convenience of having so many delightful eateries just a short walk away. Whether we were in the mood for a quick coffee fix or a nice dinner, there were plenty of options right at our doorstep.

Lake View Modern Farm House Retreat

EmilyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We loved our stay here! Just what we needed for our little family getaway. The farm animals were lovely; our toddler had a blast with them. The dogs were so sweet and welcoming every time we arrived. Great place! We’d love to stay again. The farm is also a short walking distance to Guajome Lake park, which includes a playground and trails. A beautiful place!

Lake View Retreat in Ramona

AnthonyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
The Bluebird Retreat was a really unique place to stay in Romona. It really felt like a getaway as it’s located in a really tucked away area so you don’t have to worry about neighbors or the sounds of traffic. It was truly just peace and quiet. Place was stocked up with everything we needed to bring some groceries and cook dinner. Everything was clean and spotless. The hose Lara was always responsive. Best part was waking up to all the sunshine and critters hanging around the place, squirrels and so many kinds of birds ( if you’re a birder you’ll really appreciate this place) plus the spectacular view of lake Sutherland 👌🏼 overall this place is one of a kind, if you ever find the need to be in Ramona, don’t hesitate to book ✅

Dream Home Away From Home - Huge Common Area!

PeleRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Place was great! Clean, spacious and very homey.. just like how it looks in the images. There were some complications with the door lock that caused a little inconvenience, but we got it resolved. I will recommend having curtains in the living room and dining area for more privacy since there are a ton of windows, but other than that- great place!

Steps To Beach! Family Friendly-Remote Office-Fire

MargeauxRating, 5 stars3 days ago
We were two families with a 15-month old and a 6-month old kid. We loved how the space was super baby-friendly. Safety gates, toddler tables/chairs, crib, etc. Very clean. The property is just a few steps away from the beach. Good restaurants within walking distance. Sea World 3 miles away. Jarrod and Maria provided everything we needed and more. They are also very responsive to questions. We highly recommend this property to anyone staying in San Diego!

Stunning Views! Perfect for 8 on Private Beach

TaraRating, 5 stars6 months ago
This beach house is everything and more. You won’t want to leave! We came out to celebrate my birthday and just relax for the holiday with local family. We had a great time. It was a bit chilly so we didn’t get to use the backyard as much as we would’ve liked but sitting in the living room with the door open and listening to the waves was priceless. Heather was so friendly and easy to communicate with. We had everything we needed. Dolphin and surfer watching every day and we even saw a whale. We will definitely be back!!! One tip: try to have a compact car so you can park in the driveway spot. Although, we never had trouble with street parking. My hiccup was the street sweep is early am and I was scared to get a ticket! Easy to work around though and well worth it for the location.

Mary, it was great chatting with you! Your dining recommendations did not disappoint! We look forward to our next stay with you! Thanks again for the amazing hospitality! Joel and Andrea

Lake San Marcos Gem

FrankRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had a wonderful weekend stay at Victoria's AirBnB. The place was spotlessly clean from top to bottom, making it feel welcoming and comfortable from the moment we arrived. Its location was perfect--conveniently accessible to plenty of shopping options, which made it easy to pick up anything we needed. The surroundings were lovely and peaceful, providing nice backdrop for relaxation. Overall, a great experience, and we'd definitely stay her again?
