It was a trip for our family to be together on Thanksgiving. 7 Adults, 3 Children and 1 puppy. Plenty of room for all and really enjoyed the outdoor space.
Very Nice home very clean and near many attractions and airport drive is amazing super close to the beach!! the owners where always answering my txts although there was an issue with the pool the owners were very attentive on the issue and got it fixed quick!
Spent the holiday week and everyone ages 1-77 was happy! Well stocked, and set up was great for entertaining. Responsivene and friendly hosts. Only issue was the hot tub (either didn’t work or we couldn’t figure it out and didn’t get directions) but we spent a lot of time in the backyard around the fire pit and outdoor tv and games. Wonderful memories !
Our stay at Michelle's home fit our needs perfectly. We were 7 adults and 3 kids under 2. The main suite area was a perfect spot for my son, his wife & twins. They were able to place the kids' porta cribs in the exercise space and large walk-in closet - which gave them the main room to themselves. The house was well insulated, so crying babies at night were not disruptive to the rest of the house. We were disappointed to not have San Diego sunshine, so we were unable to enjoy the backyard spaces. My son did try and use the hot tub, but was not successful. Directions for use would have been helpful. House was well stocked with kitchen supplies.
Note: There are 2 porta cribs on property (not just 1).
