"My mom and I came out for the weekend and LOVED it. John is incredibly friendly and has a gorgeous property, it is even better than the photos. Being able to listen to the ocean right from the patio was lovely. Thank you for the wonderful experience and hospitality! We’ll be back. "

"Our stay at this beautiful home for a family vacation was awesome. Spacious, the location was perfect and the neighborhood was nice. The backyard was private and we had fun just hanging in the backyard during the evening bbq-ing and hanging around the fire pit. Close to Ocean beach and blocks from Sunset Cliff Beaches. Would definitely stay there again."

Handlery Hotel

Handlery Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This was my first time staying at the Handlery Hotel and it definitely won't be my last. By far, my best stay in San Diego, and Ive stayed in San Diego many times.. The hotel itself is super central to all the San Diego attractions, 8 minute drive to the beach, right off the freeway, but tucked away safe and private from the main street.The staff was super nice and helpful, gated and ample parking and entrances to front desk, pool, etc., my room was beautiful, with a big balcony facing the pool, but with some privacy, comfy bed, and super clean! I also loved the different options of places to eat within a few feet from my room! The Reef Lounge was my favorite. Great food & drink and vibes! Looking forward to my stay next year!"
