We had a fantastic time, Carrie was so welcoming and kind. The pool and backyard were amazing, the kids enjoyed themselves so much. Thank you!
House had lots of age appropriate toys and a great pool. The description did not let us know it was a very small guest house. We thought there were 3 or 4 bedrooms. A little cramped.
This property exceeded our expectations in every way! It is located in an upscale neighborhood with beautiful views, and minutes away from grocery stores and restaurants. Main attractions like Safari Park, Sea World, Legoland, La Jolla and others are all about 20-30 minutes away. Our 3 kids were busy with all the play structures, toys, pool and books. Carrie is a phenomenal host! As the other reviews say, she helped us suggestions for activities, restaurants, shopping and more! We are already looking forward to staying here the next time we visit San Diego!
The house was our favorite part of the trip! Absolutely perfect!
Carrie was amazing and thoughtful! She made sure the house was filled with age appropriate toys for the kids, (even leaving a weighted blanket for my special needs little one). She checked on us to make sure we had everything we needed and even brought me a large double stroller for sightseeing with my kiddos! I can’t say enough about how much we loved everything! Will be checking out her other properties for sure!
Our stay was amazing! A large part of that was the great amenities that Carrie provides. She is so thoughtful and kind. One day she brought us donuts and even hid Easter eggs for the kids. She also provides great recommendations. I would definitely recommend!!
We had a relaxing stay and the kids couldn’t get enough of all the toys! Clean and comfortable. Would stay again.
Where do I begin? I’ve stayed at many rental houses, resorts, hotels, etc. Simple things like allowing you to check in early, surprise donuts, extra toys put in the garage, suggestions for things to do and restaurants. Carrie CARES!! That’s should be her slogan. From one mom to another, thank you for being an amazing host and caring about the outcome of our vacation!
Excellent staycation house. We went here during x'mas break. Quiet surroundings..lovely place to watch sunset and awesome playground, toys, pool for kids to just have fun. During the evening, there were neighborhoods nearby with different themes of lighting, decoration for us to enjoy. The owner met us in person and explained all things in detail. We had our flight delayed..so our owner even helped keep some of our instacart stuff inside the house and even greeted us with a cool wine bottle for our troubles!! So cool!. We loved our stay
My family and I stayed at Carrie's home right before the holidays. The house is in a convenient, quiet and safe neighborhood. Carrie made the trip even easier for us traveling with our toddler. She pulled out age specific toys, gave plenty of suggestions on activities and brought us little treats. I would highly recommend this for any family.
This property was amazing. Our kids spent hours every day in the pool and on the play structure. The variety of outside areas available to explore was great and all of the rooms inside were well maintained and comfortable. We were surprised at how roomy the interior felt for 3 adults and 2 kids. Everything that we could have needed for the kids was provided: toys, silverware, dishes. Our kids are normal creatures of habit but didn't touch all of their usual toys that we brought with us. Carrie was the perfect host, available and informative when we had questions but left us to enjoy our vacation when we didn't need anything. She was very accommodating with our arrival and departure times.
We had such a wonderful time staying at this VRBO. We have stayed at quite a few VRBO homes with the kids and this was definitely the best. The kids LOVED the pool and the playground and loved exploring the beautiful fruit trees. It was so nice to have a peaceful sanctuary with gorgeous vistas and a ton of toys to come back to after a day of exploring. I was a little nervous because it’s about 20-30 min away from any attractions. But for us, the drive was worth it. We had a ton of space, everything we needed was provided (beach toys, chairs, stroller, etc), and of course we swam every day. I would highly recommend to anyone with young kids traveling to San Diego!
Our family of 5 (mom/dad, 3 kids ages 7, 5, and 2), grandparents, and aunt (total 8 people) were extremely comfortable and happy with this vacation rental! The backyard is really the crown jewel of the property. The pool is beautiful, clean, and has plenty of pool toys for the kids to play with. The jacuzzi spa was great for the adults! Everything is fenced in and we felt very safe letting our kids roam the yard. The backyard overlooks a large bluff area - the sunsets were always a treat to watch. We used the fire pit a couple times - very simple to use. The property has many fruit trees. The playground was another backyard highlight, and we spent many nights outside watching the kids play on the structure, with a glass of wine/soda in hand. We made dinner every night in the home - the hosts have an amazing Weber BBQ and all the appliances indoors work just fine. As far as the interior of the home, there are 3 sleeping areas. The master suite has a very comfortable king size bed, with an adjourning bathroom and a large walk in closet area. The walk in closet area was so large, we were able to have all 3 kids sleep in there for the duration of the week (was able to fit twin bunk bed AND a toddler bed in the closet). The closet is NOT in the same direct area as the master bedroom, so it did give some separation (the closet is directly across from the bathroom). Bedroom 2 is just big enough for a queen size bed and TV, and has barn doors. Bedroom 3 is right by garage entry, has twin over twin bunk bed, and has curtain entry (no door) - also has a TV. Everyone was comfortable and had their own space to retreat to at the end of the day. The home is near Poway, so all the main attractions were about a 30 min drive away (Legoland, Seaworld, Zoo, etc). Parking was not an issue at all. Neighborhood was definitely quiet and residential - we didn’t see ANYBODY hanging out in the neighborhood, which was quite different than our home neighborhoods! I took a couple of walks around the main road - all the homes are stately, large, and beautiful - but never saw anybody else walking or biking. A bit different than what I am used to! Carrie was a wonderful host, very responsive to texts. She surprised us with a box of donuts one morning. There is a main house on the property- for the most part, it was unoccupied during our stay (host was staying in separate property). Over all, we would definitely come back!
Carrie is awesome and has thought of everything you need to stay here! There are toys and strollers and cribs and high chairs and life jackets, it's all been thought of and is ready for your kids to have a blast. And if there happens to be anything else you need, Carrie is the most responsive and caring host we've ever had! The pool is amazing and the playground and gardens are so beautiful, you can plan a while trip just to stay here! There is safety fencing around the pool so you don't have to worry and other gates and fences throughout the property so you can make sure you know where kids are able to go. Everything was clean, the beds are comfortable, the climate control works great, the kitchen is well stocked and there were even snacks left for us. I would definitely recommend this to any family visiting the area!
