Very nice clean place, walking distance to coffee, restaurants and shops. Little challenge to find parking once in a while but always found something within a block or two. Definitely would rent the location again!

Such a gem! Location is perfect not too far from the places we had planned out. Neighborhood was nice and quiet. I’m a coffee lover and I loved the shops that were near by! We have a little one so it was spacious and comfortable. Will be looking forward to come again!

Our Stay

We had a wonderful time! The house was great-very well equipped, comfortable beds and furniture, very clean and close to everything we wanted to do. The host was easy to communicate with and was very quick responding to us. We come to San Diego a lot and will definitely stay here again!

Perfect home and location for our family

We had a family wedding within walking distance from the house on New Year's Eve. The home is a beautiful home and had everything that we needed. It has a fully stocked kitchen, coffee bar, extra bathroom supplies, and even eye covers for sleeping. It has a peaceful ambience and is close to everything. Thank you for a fun stay at your beautiful home!

Family wedding

We rented 3 houses on the same street for our family wedding. This house was perfect for the brides. Everything was comfortable and functional - we loved the front porch in the mornings. Beautiful and friendly neighborhood in Normal Heights!

This place is amazing!

Perfect place for my family and I needed. Family four, 2 kids, perfect amount of space. The home was clean, looks brand new (inside and out), and is conveniently located 5-10 mins to everywhere you want to go in San Diego. Lots of great local bars and restaurants within walking distance. Don't worry about the street parking, 8/10 times we found street parking right in front of the home. There is plenty of parking in the neighborhood. Beds were super comfortable and the bedrooms were beautiful. Bonus points for the washer and dryer combo! My favorite part of the house,was the coffee bar with the variety of Keurig cups, creamers, and sugars. Nothing better than arriving to your destination and the coffee situation has already been handled for you. I met the owner and he is fantastic. I had requested an early check in and without hesitation he was able to accomodate my family. The owner went above and beyond to ensure my family was comfortable and was stocked with everything we needed for our stay. I will return to this rental and I highly recommend you considering this home for your San Diego adventure!
