La Casita - Fully Updated Casita in Mission Hills
The casita was perfect for one or two guests, intimate space but did the job. It was very clean, in a nice and quiet neighborhood. We took a walk one of the mornings to a nearby coffee shop which was very peaceful and enjoyable. The location is a short drive to downtown and the beach which was very convenient. I would stay here again.

BEAUTIFUL Private Studio
My husband and I stayed at Sean's place to help our daughter move to San Diego, our stay was absolutely perfect! Super clean, fun decor, nice unexpected treats for guests, sheets, towels, bed all comfy. I actually want to replicate some of the decor! Location is great and quiet. Loved having a designated parking space. For our future visits we won't have to look any further, I know this will be our place to stay. Sean's instructions for check-in is very thorough, making check-in so easy. We really appreciated the recommendations he provided with places to eat, to grab a coffee and even the local farmers market. I find so many checkout's so complicated and cumbersome, Sean's is very very reasonable. I highly recommend booking with Sean, you won't be disappointed.

New Guest House - North Park
Lynae’s place was wonderful, as was Lynae! Balboa park right nearby, with gorgeous trails and scenery. Walkable to North Park area which had a fun variety of bars, shops, and restaurants. Lynae was a wonderful host - responsive, kind, flexible - and the home was bright, airy, with gorgeous views. We couldn’t say enough good things about the wall of jasmine walking in. Thank you Lynae for having us in your home!

Cozy Cottage 1/2 mile to North Park close to dtwn
Excellent place. We loved the location relative to the sites we wanted to see. Free parking, laundry, very well stocked kitchen, comfortable bed. We were very comfortable and happy here. And as a host Wendy was phenomenal. One of the most responsive hosts I’ve had the pleasure of connecting with on Airbnb. Thank you Wendy!!!

Romantic Private Garden Studio Near Downtown
Kathi and Byron are great hosts and the place is beautiful, exactly as described. We had a great time, the place is very close to everything, there is a liquor store just 1 block away, very comfortable bed, beautiful garden 😃😃😃😃 Thank you very much Kathi, we hope to come back soon to San Diego and we will definitely book your place again.

Central & Serene Secret Garden Guesthouse
We loved Susie’s garden guesthouse! Very walkable to a lot of lovely restaurants and close to SDSU!

North Park, San Diego's Best At Your Doorstep
Wonderful peace and quiet; the yard space provided space for visits with family; great neighborhood; comfy bed; all so tidy and clean. I will remind myself to bring silverware next time.

Private Cottage in Walkable North Park w/AC
We couldn't have asked for more and will recommend Susan's place to anybody that is looking to visit San Diego. The neighborhood was awesome and we were able to hit up a ton of local bars and restaurants. It was a super short drive to the zoo and everything in Balboa Park. It's also a short drive to the Marina and all the other neighborhoods, we could have taken mass transit if we wanted. It really was one of the most convenient places we have stayed at, and we will definitely check back in when we come back to visit.

Private 1 BR Paradise retreat
Jeanne and John's place was exactly as advertised in the description and photographs. The backyard and pool were beautiful unfortunately the weather and our schedule of events did not permit us time to indulge. If we ever needed a place in the area again we would definitely reserve another stay. We felt so welcomed and the extras were so thoughtful...like a balloon for my husband's birthday and a handwritten welcome letter. Thank you for the hospitality!

La Jolla Oasis: Ocean, City and Fire Works Views
The space is stunning, spacious with modern decor and beautiful views. Atoosa has anticipated everything you will need to enjoy your vacation, from coffee to complimentary snacks to free weights and gear for the beach. The bed is cozy, and the sheets silky soft. The view from the terrace is lovely and peaceful. Parking is easy, and you are just a quick drive from the cafes and beaches of La Jolla. This gorgeous apartment will surpass your expectations.

Cozy Urban Casita! Near Zoo, Gaslamp and Coronado
Absolutely the best! (And I'm a super-host too) Location, amenities, communication, just total thoughtfulness on Laurie's part made this the perfect San Diego getaway place for this retired active peaceful couple. If you have the privilege of staying here you'll feel like you came across magic.

Charming Casita with City and Bay Views
Our hosts were extremely gracious, helpful and available. The casita was as advertised (clean and charming). The yard full of plants was very serene and charming. We would definitely stay here again!

Casita with private yard and separate entrance
We had a great stay at Michael’s place! It was cozy and had everything we needed. Walkable to lots of North Park restaurants and coffee shops nearby. We also walked to the zoo (a little over 2 miles) and the ferry to Coronado (a little over 4 miles). Great central spot!

Heart of SD | Zoo Nearby | Private Patio | Central
This is a nice little private spot you can be at right by Balboa Park. Close to Downtown, and the host was great and very responsive. I believe the washer and dryer is a plus! One thing I loved is Hulu is set up on the TV so that was really nice!

Loft Cabin-Night Cinema+Hot Soaking Tub+Views!
Staying here off the grid (somewhat lol) was an absolute treat for my bf and I. Check in was easy peasy, and everything was exactly as described. What a fun little getaway only about 30 minutes away from most beaches and attractions. Would definitely return!

Vacation Paradise-Heated Pool+Hot Tub+FirePit+EV
Located in a quiet neighborhood, Ricardo's house is very clean, modern and well equipped. Ricardo took care of every detail (coffee, tea, bathroom and kitchen products, including sun cream were there). The snacks were perfect for our first evening when we arrived extremely late from the airport. The pool and jacuzzi were a delight for us. Ricardo was very attentive and responsive and we thank him for the relaxing week we had.

Lovely Guesthouse in garden setting
We are so grateful to have been able to stay at Gwynn's place, it is so peaceful and lovely. Like a secret garden getaway. We loved all the small touches, and beauty of the space. Gwynn made us feel very welcome and comfortable! The pool is amazing and the outdoor spaces are delightful. Can't wait to stay here again.

Clean Cozy Private Guesthouse - Central San Diego
This airbnb was very nice for two people. It was a perfect space with a spot on the driveway for one car. Walking in, the airbnb was clean and smelled really good. There was plenty of amenities and our host Frank was friendly and responsive. We would book again!

Fletcher Hills - modern 1 BR.Easy, no step access.
We had a fabulous time at the Granny Flat! Everything was pristine and Kristen has thought of every amenity. She was kind and responsive. We loved the peaceful backyard with gorgeous views. The location is super convenient and a max of 25-30 mins to anywhere else in the SD area. Our pups had a great time, too! Would love to stay here again!

Early 1900's Carriage House w/Views
My wife and I LOVED being at this sweet carriage house for our two-week stay in San Diego! Brook and Justin were such gracious hosts and are absolutely lovely people. They made us feel right at home. :) The location is perfectly nestled on a quiet street just a couple of blocks away from the excitement of North Park’s bustling restaurants, shops, and coffee spots. If you’re around on a Thursday evening, be sure to check out the farmer’s market! Also just a short drive to the zoo or to the beach. My wife works remotely and also loved having a dedicated work space in the living area as well as a lovely little nook outside to work or read a book. After a day of exploring, watching the sunset from the second floor bedroom was absolutely magical. We can’t wait to return to San Diego and stay here again!

Adorable Cottage 5 Blocks to the Beach w/AC
We had a great stay here! James was super responsive and flexible with us. The rental was clean and comfortable. The location was great, in a peaceful area and walking distance to the beach and lots of restaurants, coffee shops, etc. We would definitely stay here again!

Charming North Park Cottage
My wife and I stayed here with our nearly 6mo old son. Check in was a breeze. Place was perfect for the 3 of us. May have been too small if it were 4 adults. The neighborhood is great. Really felt like home for us. Plenty of street parking and very walkable to many restaurants and bars.

Enjoy North Park at Comfy & Chic Bungalow Retreat
One of the most spacious-feeling casitas I've stayed in- wonderful layout and a great size for our family of three. Spotlessly clean and great communication with the host made for a great stay. Love the central location and access to walkable neighborhoods.

Family friendly 2BR casita w/AC & rooftop Igloo
Amanda went above and beyond as a host! When I mentioned I had a toddler she left several toys, books, and necessities when traveling with a little one. She is extremely thoughtful as a host. The home was beautiful and perfect for our family of three!
