The house was amazing. Such a wonderful space for hosting a group of friends/family. The patio space is huge. With lots of space to hang out or spread out. The grill worked really well. The beds were as good or better than other rentals I've stayed at. Just overall an incredible find. Only small complaint was that the management company could be a little slow to respond. We didn't really have any issues past the first day though, so it wasn't a problem.

Beautiful home with everything a family needs! There are outdoor games, a beautiful pool and backyard with a fire pit. We had 6 kids with us, 17-11 yrs old and they loved it! They just wanted to stay at the house instead of going to SeaWorld! 10/10 would recommend!;)

Tulum Retreat

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Loved that the location was close to all the attractions and restaurants we were interested in visiting. The kids and adults loved the pool and games in the outdoor area. The outdoor area is also very well designed with different zones. The home is set up so guests can easily be all be together in the main entertaining area. The island is large and has a good amount of seating. I feel like the owners really put thought into all aspects of the rental property for ease of usage.

Great place!

We stayed for my bachelorette trip and it was perfect! The home was clean, organized, and spacious. It was also at a great location and was nearby lots of good food and activities in the city. The host were very communicative and answered all of our questions and concerns throughout our stay. My friends and I were surprised with how beautiful the home was and how it fit 12 people comfortably. I would stay here again~

A perfect place for all 10 of this family!

We are a family of 10, from the ages of 8-88. The location is ideal for coming and going to all the activities, hikes, beaches, balboa park, zoo, restaurants and an easy trip to the airport. While here at the home base there was always fun to be had with the pool, hot tub, outdoor fire place, ping pong and more. My only advice is be sure to read the “other things” for the extra fees for heating the pool and hot tub.

This house is stunning!!! It’s even better than the pictures and had everything we needed and more. It’s in a great location yet you don’t even need to leave the house if you don’t want to. Beaches and great restaurants are a quick drive and the house is equipped with tons of games, a BBQ outside and the perfect pool so you can really enjoy the home. It truly feels like your own oasis :) My family and I had the best time, thank you for a great stay! Can’t wait to come back!

Amazing Vacation Getaway

Our group and I came in on the first weekend of December for a bachelor trip and couldn’t have picked a better place to stay! The location is central to just about all of the top things to do in SD, while also being ridiculously gorgeous and packed with stuff to do. The backyard with the pool, spa, bonfire, etc. is EXACTLY as it looks in the photos. You literally cannot go wrong with staying here.

Okay stay

The house was beautiful and looked similar to the photos. Check in was simple and easy. Everything was wiped down and appeared clean but the floors were dirty. I reached out to the owners about a problem with bugs. They were in the kitchen cabinets, dishwasher, and on the counter. I understand some bugs are typical but there were a lot. I bought food to cook throughout our stay but ended up not using most of it because I didn’t feel comfortable cooking in the kitchen . The owners couldn’t get pest control out over the holiday weekend so their solution was to use the bug spray under the sink. I asked where I could find more paper towels and I was told under the sink. When I mentioned they weren’t there, nothing else was said so I went to the store to buy more (the vrbo information said these were included). We were also out of toilet paper. The pool began to flood and the breaker blew when two guests were using a blow dryer. These are all minor problems but when tied in with the bugs and sending several messages throughout the stay, it was a little frustrating. We all loved the pool and backyard space. This helped the overall stay by far! We comfortably fit our 13 guests.

Why they chose this property

Mission Heights is a sweet little pocket in San Diego that’s got the best of both worlds—city vibes and relaxed charm. Tucked between Mission Valley and Hillcrest, it’s the kind of spot where you’ll find yourself saying, “Yep, I could live here.” Think artsy boutiques, chill coffee shops, and a bunch of dining spots to explore—all just a short walk away. The streets have that cool mix of classic character and modern style, and the whole neighborhood just feels good.

You’ll love it here. There are parks all around, great for a morning walk or a lazy afternoon. Plus, the views from the hills? Total postcard material—perfect for your Insta-worthy feed or just soaking in with a cup of coffee.

It’s not all just pretty streets and nature. Mission Heights is packed with culture—think small galleries, local theater, and events that bring the neighborhood together. People here are friendly and it’s easy to feel like you’re part of the community.

You're in a prime spot to explore the rest of San Diego. Old Town, Balboa Park, the Zoo—everything’s close. Whether you’re here to chill, explore, eat your way through the city, or do a little of everything, this neighborhood is a perfect base.

What makes this property unique

San Carlos is one of those San Diego neighborhoods that locals love to keep to themselves. It's tucked away in the hills and home to one of the city’s most iconic natural spots—Cowles Mountain. This peak stands at 1,591 feet, making it the highest point within San Diego’s city limits. On a clear day, you’ll catch sweeping views of the ocean, downtown, and even Mexico from the top!

If you're into hiking or just want a good excuse to get outside, Cowles is a must. The main trailhead is only about a mile and a half away (near Navajo and Golfcrest) and has parking and restrooms. The hike itself is about three miles round-trip and climbs 1,000 feet, so bring water and sunscreen—there’s not much shade, but the views are totally worth it.

This area has a laid-back, outdoorsy vibe and is super convenient for exploring San Diego. You're close to nature, but also not far from shops, restaurants, and fun spots for the whole family. Just a few minutes away, you’ve got Mission Trails Regional Park—over 8,000 acres of trails, hills, and Lake Murray, which is perfect for paddleboarding, kayaking, or a peaceful walk by the water.

If you're up for a bit of a challenge, try the “Secret Stairs” in La Mesa's Mt. Nebo/Windsor Hills neighborhood. It’s a fun little workout with great views. And if you're traveling with kids, Harry Griffen Park is always a hit—huge grassy spaces, a playground, and even live music in the summer.

For those who love the water, Lake Murray is just a short drive away with options to bike, walk, or rent a little boat for the afternoon (don’t forget your fishing license if you’re casting a line!). No license? No worries—Santee Lakes is only about seven miles away and perfect for a laid-back day of fishing or just soaking in the sun.
