This place was fantastic! Easy walking distance to Petco Park and the rest of downtown and an easy drive to the beach. Elissa was very responsive and accommodating. The rooftop deck and fire pit was a great way to end the evenings enjoying the lights of the city. Would definitely stay again!

This place was perfect for our stay. We had 2 young adults in the group. The place was convenient to offer easy access to all different likings. Close to USS Midway, just mile away from Balboa park, few blocks from Gaslamp quarter for late night fun! The house has amazing terrace garden, a little tricky to access but absolutely worth it! We spent a nice, after dinner chat, around the fire! The house had a couple of issues but the hosts addressed them right away and prompt to make our stay comfortable! Comfortable beds, well appointed kitchen, and everything needed for family of 4 to enjoy the stay! Would highly recommend this stay in heart of San Diego’s happening area!

April 2026

Just wrapped up an amazing week-long stay in the hosts' San Diego townhouse. The location was fantastic! My family could easily get to all the places we wanted to see/do, including Mission Beach, La Jolla, Pacific Beach, Balboa Park, and Petco Park. The house was packed with everything we needed... making breakfast every morning was a breeze in the kitchen with so many amenities. And the best part of the house is the rooftop lounge area with couches, a fire pit, and night lights. The hosts were amazing, too... fantastic communication, clear check-in and check-out instructions, and so responsive to questions. Highly recommended!
