House vacation rentals in Old Town, San Diego

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!

We had a fantastic week in La Jolla! John’s place was charming, spotless, and perfect for our family. The home was well-stocked with thoughtful amenities—including beach gear—and had everything we needed to feel comfortable. The location is unbeatable: a quiet, family-friendly neighborhood within a few minutes walking distance to the beach, great restaurants, coffee shops, and more. John was a friendly and responsive host who made everything easy from start to finish. Honestly could not have asked for a better host. Highly recommend for families looking for a relaxing, convenient stay in La Jolla. We’d love to come back!

This was a great home to rent. Very easy, good communication with owners, plenty of room and amenities and situated in a good area - close to many places of interest. We will return!

Stay at Katri’s was great. Had delicious cookies waiting for us when we checked in, which was a breeze. House was spacious and entire lot was very big. Pool was great and even after we had told them that no heated pool would be necessary, Mother Nature had a different idea and gave us some more than unexpected chilly weather, so they had no problem throwing the heater on for us. Freeway in the background was hardly a noise problem for us personally. Just far enough that it didn’t affect us, and was nice to see what our morning commute was going to be like. Brought two dogs with the group that absolutely loved everything (after one of them finally got over his fear of the staircase). All in all a great stay in a great neighborhood. Cant comment more how quickly they responded to us in the days leading up to the trip, and while we were there. Great hosts!

We had a very fun and relaxing friends get together here. We could walk to get food, and driving to different parts of San Diego was super easy from here. Our group has done many trips and this by far was the best residence for us by far, not to mention two large tables for playing board games. Would stay here again!

Exactly as the other reviewers have described, it is just a beautiful oasis in a perfect quiet neighborhood. Don’t wait, book now!

This beautiful guest home in historic Marston Hills is perfect for a San Diego getaway! It was pristine, well-maintained, and so comfortable. We were able to walk to Balboa Park and the San Diego Zoo, as well as nearby restaurants and grocery stores. The pool was also a lovely amenity, and the surrounding canyon was a gorgeous backdrop. Jing is an amazing host. She truly goes the extra mile to take care of her guests. The home is stocked with amenities - kitchenware for cooking, toiletries and extra towels, even pool or beach supplies! We loved our stay in Jing’s guest home, and are so grateful for the hospitality. An amazing location and our incredible host made our stay so memorable and enjoyable. Thank you, Jing, for your hospitality. We hope to stay here again, soon!

The location is a ten minute walk to the beach. There’s a sprouts three minutes away and numerous bars, restaurants, and shops. The house was clean and had everything we needed. Great location with a very great host. Very kind people. I would definitely stay again.

Overall, we had a good stay here. The place matched the description, and it was in a central location with easy access to highways. We were able to reach most parts of San Diego quickly. Mary Grace was responsive and friendly.

Brent’s place was amazing and I would definitely stay there again! It’s in a great location close to lots of restaurants in South Park and my favorite coffee shop Santos coffee :) Their home was beautiful inside and out with a great yard space for the doggies!

Conveniently located . Easy to find . Well maintained front and backyard . Quiet, peaceful and safe area . Host very responsive and allowed us to stay a bit longer to give us time to clean up and leave the place as orderly as we found it .

My stay here was exactly how I wanted it to be. The home was very clean and had a lot of necessities like cookware, silverware, shower products, and so much more! Everything was super neat and organized. The bed was extremely comfy. The host was very easy to communicate with and made sure we had everything we needed, also made sure all our questions were answered. I am looking forward to staying here again when I return to San Diego. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is thinking about staying here. You definitely get your moneys worth.

Negar was such a great host!! Was always quick to respond and very helpful. The room was so cozy and clean. The back yard makes you feel like ur in a secret garden. Had a pleasant time.

Wonderful place to stay!! Check in instructions were incredibly clear, and the hosts very helpful and responsive to any questions I had. The pictures are a great representation of the place; very cozy, light filled, clean, and comfortable. I really enjoyed being within a short walking distance to Petco Park while still being able to explore some of the neighborhoods in San Diego easily. I would absolutely stay here again!! Thank you!

The stay was amazing! Such a cute air bnb. Close to lots of of shops, restaurants and a beautiful view of the ocean. 10/10

Dominic was a great host. The space came with everything we needed and then some. Free snacks was a great plus. Also the AC unit was an unexpected plus.

I had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The house was incredibly quiet, which made for a relaxing and peaceful getaway. I absolutely loved the aesthetic—thoughtfully designed, cozy, and full of charm. Everything was spotless and well-maintained, which made it feel even more comfortable. Highly recommend if you're looking for a serene and stylish place to unwind!

Georgie’s airbnb is beautiful and in a great location in Ocean Beach. There’s plenty to do nearby and easy to walk to. We had some trouble sleeping due to noise from airplanes, but this has less to do with Georgie’s Airbnb specifically and more to do with the proximity to the airport.

This stay was perfect! The place was beautiful, Nina was so communicative, and all the instructions were clear and helpful. We used the car turner and it sounds a little intimidating but it’s very simple and so convenient! I really can’t say enough good things about the place and hosts, I highly recommend staying here!

Doris and her son were prompt in addressing and resolving an issue immediately above and beyond our expectations

Our stay in Old Town San Diego was amazing. The location of the home is perfect for walking around and easy access to the trolly for getting downtown. Would love to stay here again in the future.

Joseph was a great host. I was surprised to have snacks and coffee stocked. We were also greeted with a bottle of wine for us - which was so nice. The home was in a nice location, it was clean, but it’s not very walkable. We ended up renting a car - which made everything closer to get to. Overall, good home, had everything we’d need for a week’s stay.

Gorgeous Airbnb on an almost private beach. Location is great for those who know the area. Only one bedroom and patio space is shared with other unit. But the view and serene environment made up for it :)

Joseph is the host to choose when you travel to San Diego. Extremely helpful about everything. The house is very cozy and updated with all the latest gadgets and appliances. Very close to downtown, shopping mall and everything else in very quiet neighborhood. When you stay at the house it feels like home. For your next vacation or stay in San Diego, look no further just call Joseph
