Summary: I have stayed at several VRBOs, nationally as well as internationally. This one had the best communication by far! I almost don't want to leave a review and keep this little gem to myself. I will definitely be booking again. It is centrally located to everything in San Diego. It is a bit "quirky" to get to, but it is located in a very safe and quiet area. We were down in the hustle and bustle of town and then retreated to our private gated sanctuary. The kitchen was well.stocked - it even had a Kitchenaid stand mixer as well as all the other appliances you would need. I didn't get to cook much but now that I know will take advantage next time. The round dining table is perfect for meals or playing board games. There is plenty of parking behind the automatic gate. I appreciated the extra towels, sheets, and pillows. Perfect for a small family or two couples. We were a family of 5 - 2 parents with 3 adult children.
