Hillcrest Bungalow is a lovely property with all the creature comforts. The owner generously provides extremely comfortable beds with soft linens, fluffy white towels, and a beautifully appointed home including the kitchen and outdoor spaces. She even had a holiday tree, decorations and a special Christmas morning drop-off so we felt festive being away from home for the holidays. Wonderful place and stellar host. Thank you!

We fully enjoyed our visit in San Diego and our host was a huge help with dinning and information on sight seeing major attractions. House was spotless, kitchen was well stocked and the bed was amazingly comfortable. Neighborhood was perfect for our Norwich puppy walks. We will be back to visit this winter from Taos New Mexico. Thank you Annie

We enjoyed our stay at the Hillcrest Bungalow. The house is well appointed and in excellent condition. The beds are super comfy! The location is perfect. The zoo and Balboa Park are a very short drive or a long walk. Beaches, The Gaslamp, and Old Town are all short drives. There are a lot of really good restaurants within walking distance. Or, if you want to take advantage of the fantastic kitchen, there is a Sprouts and a Whole Foods close by. We would definitely stay here again.

We had an amazing stay at Hillcrest Bungalow! Ann, our host, was incredibly responsive and genuinely dedicated to ensuring we had a wonderful time in San Diego. The house was beautifully upgraded and had an impressively equipped kitchen with everything you could ever need. The attention to detail and thoughtful amenities made our stay truly enjoyable. I highly recommend Hillcrest Bungalow for anyone looking for a fantastic getaway in San Diego. Thank you, Ann, for making our stay so memorable!"

Fantastic, central location for San Diego. 15-20 minutes from most attractions (beach, Sea World, Zoo, etc). Several restaurants/shops within walking distance (~15 min). Dedicated tandem parking space a huge plus, as there wasn't a lot of off street parking. Appliances (Viking kitchen, very new washer/dryer, tankless water heater) all made the stay a bit easier. Would definitely recommend! Ann is a great host and did everything she could to make our stay enjoyable.

This charming and very cozy bungalow is in a great location and has a wonderful set-up with the two spacious bedrooms and Jack and Jill bathroom. Loved the front and back patios….and the common living room, dining area and kitchen spaces were very lovely and homey. Had everything we needed. I think the bed/bedding were more comfy than my own! Slept like a baby! It was perfect for the three of us. Ann was a gem to work with. Very communicative, personable and helpful. Wasn’t really a fan of having to pick up the keys in a different location for check-in but check-out was seamless and all the positives of the house/stay certainly outweigh that one hiccup. Would definitely go back! Absolutely loved our trip and stay! :)

The Hillcrest house was ideally located to connect to all of your San Diego experiences in the central part of the city. Great restaurants around there, access to a lot of new things happening including bars and restaurants.The beds are really comfortable and Ann is a wonderful host. There are a few things that could be changed: lockbox did not work according to the code so we were struggling with the late-night check in. Also it's hard to get a hold of the owner after 10 PM. So that needs to be addressed; however it's a wonderful place comfortable for two people or four. I would definitely go back. Thank you so much.

8/10

We loved the house, the bed was so very comfortable and the location was truly close to everything we went to. With that said, we also found the floors to be dirty, and lots of spiderwebs outside as well as ants in the kitchen. The house needs a deep clean which I’m sure Ann will do, and is a great setup for a small family or a couple to get away. Spacious and nicely set up and includes a washer and dryer and beach towels and everything a kitchen should have if you want to cook! We had a wonderful time in San Diego Ann, thanks for having us!

Had a great time with my small family here for Thanksgiving! Amazing kitchen, comfortable beds, and a sweet tv area perfect for catching up. Even my mom’s Westie was right at home, and he’s only slept at two houses total before this. :) Would definitely recommend for some cozy family time together,

The Hillcrest bungalow was the perfect spot for our family vacation to San Diego!! The location was ideal, close to everything we wanted to visit! The beds were as comfortable as my bed at home! (amazing sheets). Anne thought of everything for this home, from the gourmet kitchen to the cozy blankets! The house was even decorated for Christmas which added such a nice touch! Custom service was outstanding with an in person delivery of paper goods when we ran out!! I highly recommend this property!!

My family and I stayed at the Hillcrest Bungalow for 6 nights. Its a wonderfully decorated 2 bedroom bungalow, and very consistent with the description. It is in a quiet neighborhood that seemed convenient to many of the sights one would want to see in San Diego-- Balboa Park and the San Diego Zoo, old town San Diego, the Seaport Village and Mission Beach, among other things. It has a great kitchen, very up-to-date and a driveway so no worries as to parking. Because of its close proximity to downtown and to shopping and restaurants it could serve as a base to see many things in the San Diego area. The owner was also very responsive and answered all my questions about the area and the property. Instructions as to check in and check out were clear. I would definitely consider staying here again. There is a warning about neighbors being sensitive to noise so if you are likely to have a big crowd that might be something to consider. For us, it was not a problem and it was nice that the neighborhood was peaceful. Having not booked through VBRO regularly, I was not focused on the service fee for booking through the listings on the website. It seems a bit hefty to me, but I understand it also acts as some protection to the consumer. But it is something to keep in mind if you are on a budget. Also, this particular property, unlike some others I looked at on the website, has a no-refund policy, so if you think you're plans could change or if you do not want to pay the entire fee well in advance with no cancellation available, this aspect of this property would be something to pay attention to. Again, a terrific stay and very clean and beautiful place.

I don't have enough great things to say, not only about this fabulous find, but Ann, the amazing owner of this property, as well as Hillcrest House Bed and Breakfast! We stayed our first night at the B n B, which we thoroughly enjoyed. During our brief stay there, Ann took the time to share with us great places to go from dining to sipping to sighseeing! She is a wealth of information and the best hostess ever! ( Her breakfast at the B n B is a delight as well!) This house is better equipped then any I have ever seen! Plus it is immaculate and extremely comfortable! Very central to everything as well. Don't miss out on staying here if you have the opportunity! Thank you for everything Ann and we look forward to seeing you again!! xxoo

This house is located in a quiet neighborhood but within walking distance to restaurants, bus stop, and supermarkets. The house is well kept, well stocked, clean, and comfortable. Ann, the owner, could not have been more helpful with suggestions, directions, and transportation. I would rent this house again in a heart beat and will certainly recommend it to any friends or family members coming to San Diego!!

The house was perfect for our family combined Thanksgiving/Christmas celebration. Ann had decorated the house for Christmas and it put us all in the spirit of the season, in spite of the warm weather and sunny days. The kitchen is fully equipped and delightful to work in. Ann has thought of everything to make this bungalow a perfect second home. It's very clean, in a quiet neighborhood, and close to everything that matters to us. We were so delighted with our stay, we've already booked another visit!

This bungalow blew my mind! The whole place was so amazing! The beds were great! It was hard to get out of bed each day because they were so comfortable! I love to cook and this kitchen is my DREAM kitchen. I am so lucky to have been able to find this place. Ann is the most hospitable person I have ever met. She makes sure that your stay is wonderful and if you have any questions you can contact her and she will respond very quickly. The neighborhood is pretty quiet. I cannot wait to stay here again!

The Hillcrest Bungalow was ABSOLUTELY the perfect place for us to stay in San Diego. We wanted comfort, the beds were incredible and the best sleep I have had in years, someplace quiet, walkable to shops, grocery stores, pubs and dining, (didn't use our vehicle) and a great kitchen to cook gourmet meals or easy light meals, outdoor space and dog friendly. It was all of that and more. Ann was a wonderful host and made sure all our needs were met. The location was quiet and we walked everywhere. Loved the outdoor space because being up on the little hill we had 24/7 breezes which were lovely. Would definitely stay here again. A most sincere thank you Ann!

This adorable little bungalow has everything you can possibly need for a great getaway. My fiance', his father, and I stayed in Ann's place for a week. The kitchen is the most well appointed I have ever experienced in a vacation rental place. There was not one thing we needed to be able to create elaborate meals. Ann remembers everything! There were clothes hangers, towels, lines. Truly the accommodation was perfect in every way for us. We would certainly use Ann's place again for future visits to San Diego.
