Awesome home

Most homes for rent are bare bones with cheap furniture, not this one! You really feel at home in this comfy place. Would highly recommend.

Great location!

We had such an amazing vacation! The location is awesome and great for walking to the beach and shops and restaurants. It was a short drive to sea world. We would love to come back sometime.

Great place in good location.

We stayed for a week with our children (teens). The house is exactly as pictured in the listing so no surprises. We liked having the option of the outdoor spaces. It was a great location for us, just two blocks from the beach and in a quieter location. We loved it. The only hiccup was on the second to last day when the hot water went out. It took some time to be able to get someone out there. Contacting the rental management company was easy, but they were apparently having trouble getting ahold of the local person in charge of taking care of things like this. But it ended up getting resolved by end of the day. I would still recommend as a great place to stay.

Great location. Needs some improvements.

The inside of the property was clean. The outside living areas were not maintained. We had a problem with access to the washer and dryer and our final morning had no hot water. The location was great. The inside areas reflected what was marketed but the outside did not. The response to our issue with the washer was excellent. They addressed our issue immediately. I have asked for some kind of allowance for the day without hot water and no one has gotten back to me.

High Potential Rental that Fell Short During our Stay

My wife and I stayed at this property for 8 nights for a "workcation" in San Diego. The location is excellent in a quiet residential neighborhood, easily walkable to most parts of PB including the boardwalk, coffee houses, restaurants, and the beach. Easy drive to many local areas like La Jolla, Torrey Pines, Little Italy, Gaslamp, Coronado Island, etc. The unit is well equipped with everything you need and everything is in good condition (rare for a rental). Smart TVs, blackout blinds, a sleep number bed, and the two private patios were nice touches. Specific to our stay, docking one star because of Vacasa - we had a problem getting the heat to work for a few days. Vacasa took too long in my opinion to fix it and didn't provide space heaters in the interim. The lack of heat made the unit freezing at night and caused a humidity problem where the place smelled like mold and we had to launder all our clothes. Vacasa was also cheap with things like paper towels and toilet paper (think Dollar Tree quality). Specific to this unit, docking one star because there is a tenant upstairs and the soundproofing is poor. You can hear walking and talking and the resident tended to stay up until after midnight and be up in the morning around 6am, which made it difficult to get quality sleep. They weren't partying or anything - the noise just travels straight through. The units have metal storm doors and the tenant upstairs would let it slam, even when returning at late hours which we found inconsiderate. There is also a lack of privacy on the "private" patios because the tenant upstairs always left their windows open. We could clearly hear every word they were saying outside, which likely means the opposite applied. As a result, we spent much less time outside than planned. On the day we tried to launder our humidity soaked clothes (laundry is shared), we ran into one of the tenants who had just started their laundry which was fine. What was frustrating is they left their clothes in the dryer for 8 hours after the cycle finished. One other aspect specific to this unit that I found to be a little much was books on the coffee table that articulated extreme political views. Everyone has the right to their beliefs but putting this content on a rental coffee table seemed a bit tasteless. Overall, this is a well-maintained and well-equipped rental property in a great location, but we'll find a place that's more privacy and solace next time. We'd also probably opt for a property management company with a local customer-oriented presence.

Great location

The poperty was in great condition and clean. Location is a few blocks to the beach and about 15 minutes to zoo or airport. Overall great spot for a family of 3 to explore from.

Very comfortable and great location.

This cottage is as pictured -- cozy, up to date kitchen and living area. Beds were comfortable. Only recommendation I would make is to remove the desk from the second bedroom -- it makes it very tight with the large bunk bed. Nice to have the deck off the kitchen for enjoying outside meals. Great location -- A short walk to the beach and plenty of restaurants to choose from within walking distance. We will definitely consider staying here again when returning to the area.

Cute flat close to the beach and restaurants

Very adorably decorated and comfortable flat only about two blocks from beaches and restaurants. Very well appointed kitchen and cozy bedrooms. We loved the multiple outdoor spaces available to us. There are front porch chairs for morning sun, a shaded patio for dining, and yet another patio for lounging with a porch swing and another table! We really enjoyed our stay.
