Wonderful!
The accommodations are absolutely perfect and affordable. We did not do any cooking to speak of but the cabinets were well stocked with spices, coffee, dishes, pans etc. Actually anything you would need to prepare meals. More than plenty paper goods which is rare these days. Usually you get 1 roll of toilet paper and 1 roll of paper towels and maybe a couple trash bags. They went over and above on supplying these items which they deserve an A+ rating for. The neighborhood is very easy to navigate but also close to the sights that we were seeking to take in. We had a wonderful vacation and I attribute part of that to the outstanding accommodations. We would like to make another trip to San Diego and if we do this will be the unit I will try to rent.

5 Star Giraffe Home
Our stay was very comfortable and perfect for our new year stay. Giraffe theme was very tastefully done. Additional features e.g. toothpaste, cotton buds, cooking oils and spices added to the thoughfulness of the host. Breakfast in the back gatden was lovely. Didn't get ttime to use the front shared seating area apart from taking photographs. Safe neighbourhood with many homes decorated for Christmas which gave it a festive feel. Shops in walking distance, plus buses and trains to get to and from San Diego Bay. Visited friendly local Baptist Church. Thank you for sharing your home.

AMAZING!
Pictures don’t do this place justice! It was such a cute 2 bedroom. This place with fully stocked with kitchen supplies, spices, toiletries… full size shampoo and conditioner… extra toothbrushes… everything! There was coffee & tee available to make. The beds were so very comfortable! And the couches were so comfortable, so many nights where one of us fell asleep on the couch! TVs in all the rooms, plenty of parking and a washer and dryer WITH DETERGENT! Also cleaning supplies and extra supplies If needed in their garage. The backyard was cute as well as the front. I know people mentioned the neighborhood looking sketchy but NEVER once did we feel scared. It was actually super quiet!! It was just us two moms with our two 9 year old baseball boys. We met the neighbors: next door, in front and one on the side with the pool (we stayed for 7 nights). If you rent a Tesla there is a super charger station very close and a lot of restaurants near by! We also met and were in constant communication with MariCarmen our host. She was also so very very sweet and open with communication. We asked for an ice-chest and she had one available in less then 30 mins. I cannot stress enough how wonderfully our stay was. We travel a lot and this was by far my favorite little place. I hope to come back to visit!

Pleased with our choice to stay at the Giraffe House
Our stay at the Giraffe House was a very enjoyable one. The home is beautifully decorated and furnished quite well. We were very impressed by our host and her home, and we do intend to stay there again if we’re ever in the San Diego area. We are a family of four and this was a perfect fit for us.
