Absolutely incredible View
The view on the water was fantastic. Fire pit was a nice touch for the cool nights. The house was right around the corner from coffee shops and other stuff yet right on the water which is hard to accomplish. Generally I would say the house was very clean and well stocked with things you might need In the drawers In the kitchen. I would caution and even enters that this house does not sleep more than two couples despite it saying it sleep six there are only two bedrooms but there is a full bath outside the living room where the pull-out couch is. Also there is an extraordinary disparity between the large master bedroom and bath up above with spectacular ocean views and a very small queen size bedroom on the first level which does not have a view.

Good
It’s a 2 bedroom house. The house is old, but well maintained. All the amenities were fine, we had no issues. The house is exactly like what you see in the pictures. Vacasa was very helpful. Overall, a great trip. We enjoyed it. If this is your first time to San Diego, a word of caution. The car rental place is NOT at the airport, but quite a bit far away. You might have to stand in line with your luggage for a long time to get on the free shuttle to the car rental place. I would recommend, just get an Uber to go to the car rental place, instead of standing in line forever. Same thing, when you drop off your rented vehicle. Uber is much better than the free shuttle, you are going to miss your flight, waiting in line.

Easy stay, beautiful home
This home was perfect for 2 couples. The first floor master suite and ground level entrance made it easily accessible/comfortable for my 83 yo parents & the views can't be beat. The upstairs master suite is lovely, spacious, and allows you to fall asleep to the waves every night. Location is in a quiet, walkable neighborhood (they were doing construction on a house a few doors down but it was never bothersome). We barely saw any neighbors and there was no issue with street parking in front of the house. Coffee, wine bar, and several restaurants are within easy walking distance. The house itself had a few minor wear and tear issues (freezer drawer and a pull out cabinet were very difficult to open and close), but nothing that detracted from the experience. My only suggestion to the hosts is to upgrade the outdoor furniture. The balcony/patio is the highlight of the home and where we spent the majority of our time. The fire pit is delightful, but the furniture around it is not remotely comfortable for any period of time. There's also very little shade offered by the small movable umbrella most of the day. A few nice outdoor couches and chairs with more (or a larger) umbrellas would make this home perfection.
