House in Ocean Beach close to all San Diego attractions
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (8)
"I came to visit San Diego with family. Angela's home was cozy and convenient, near the beach and stores. It had everything needed, a home away from home. I only felt bad because the hard wood floors would creak every time my kids made movements. It has a washer and dryer and she even had pods for laundry. It is so convenient, especially after a long day or getting ready to travel back home. Angela was also very kind. We had a hiccup with our flight and she went out of her way to accommodate us....

"Loved this hidden gem! Clean, large and had everything we needed. Friendly staff and free garage parking. We could see the water from our balcony (when it wasn’t foggy). Only downside is it’s quite noisy, but this is not the property’s fault at all. Will definitely stay again."

Gorgeous Pool Home 1/2 Mile Walk to Disney
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (184)
"The master bedroom was really great and roomy. All the rooms had great features and was a comfortable house overall. Lots of rules and warnings. It seems many are forced by the city of Anaheim so you can't blame the property managers for some. The house is farther from Disney than you think. You have to be willing to walk for 30 minutes before you start your day if you plan to stay here and walk. I would stay again."

"We appreciated the prompt and professional communication throughout. The first floor room where we stayed was clean and tidy, with its own en suite toilet and shower. The bed was very comfortable, and the faux fireplace heater did a great job of heating up the whole room. The room was smaller than appears in the website pictures. The rest of the house was cluttered because of construction work being done but that’s temporary. We took advantage of and enjoyed the neat pamphlet available for a...
