Hi Jeremy,
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the cleanliness of the home and that our team was responsive during your stay.
We truly hope to host you again in the future!
If you’re looking for a large, clean home with great views, this is your place! The location is ideal. A block from the beach and restaurants! Hot tub is nice, and roof top deck.
From the moment we stepped into the property, we were all so excited. The home is cozy, spotless, and had everything we needed. The location couldn’t have been more perfect—everything we wanted to do was within walking distance. I brought my elderly parents along, and they couldn’t stop raving about how comfortable the beds were. My kids loved the beach, and we all enjoyed the stunning views from the rooftop. The jacuzzi was the cherry on top—such a relaxing bonus to an already perfect stay. We couldn’t have asked for more.
Wonderful trip to San Diego made possible by this great property. It was less than a block to the beach. The location was perfect to get every where we wanted to go. The rooftop patio was a wonderful extra. The host took good care of us and communication was excellent. We would stay here again!
We loved this place. Easy gaining access. Having a garage was a plus. Suited our family very well. The host was very nice and checked in on us. We will be back.
Great house with easy access to beach and freeway.

Great home, great location!
The Sunset Villa is wonderfully located a block from the beach and by access routes to many San Diego hot spots. Very close to the airport and a short drive to Balboa Park. The house was clean and had a fantastic rooftop deck. Garage parking was a plus as well and the hot tub! Super comfy beds. Would highly recommend!
We stay in North Pacific Beach for a week each summer, and this was our favorite property. It was incredibly clean and well-maintained. The kitchen was outfitted with nice appliances and cookware.
The two-car garage was convenient and the property was well-located, allowing us to walk to the beach as well as restaurants, shops and Gelson's market. We would love to return to his property.
