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.

Fig Tree Bungalow
This place was great for our quick weekend trip. Definitely worth the price.

Private Family Friendly Casita/Guesthouse
The casita was perfect for my family! It was bigger and even nicer in person. Robert was responsive and friendly. It was very clean, and had everything you need. We would love to stay there again!

Cozy Cottage in Encinitas Highlands
Carol and Tony provided everything we needed for a lovely family vacation- they accommodated our needs while traveling with a toddler and their guest house felt like a home away from home! Their backyard is heavenly and was the perfect place to relax in between all our outings. They are the nicest couple and I would recommend their lovely cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat with easy access to all SoCal has to offer.

Pool Side Guesthouse
Three Oaks was a lovely getaway! It was nice being a bit outside of town, very quiet & peaceful. The host was friendly, attentive & very welcoming. The bed was comfortable, something I have a problem with at most hotels I stay in. Will definitely come back on future visits to the area!

"Inn Bloom" on Fire Mountain
We truly enjoyed our stay. This place is beautiful, clean, and very well appointed. I cooked many full meals in this kitchen! The hosts are amazing! The property is a perfect retreat! The grounds are beyond gorgeous! We’ve already booked our return! Thank you for sharing your zen.

Cosy quiet Guesthouse near SDSU
Guest house on a quiet street, fairly close to SDSU. It was "home base" for our stay in San Diego, while visiting family. Easy access to highways. Local stores & restaurant s nearby. Cute kitchen & patio area. Well maintained.

Private Family Friendly Guest House
We had a perfectly comfortable stay and would come back again the next time we are in town if available. The backyard is amazing!

Golden Hour Guesthouse
We loved our stay, it was the perfect jumping off point for our adventures in San Diego

Adorable cottage in Talmadge
Another great visit! Convenient location coupled with wonderful amenities, along with Carlos’ hospitality makes this a top choice for us when visiting San Diego to see our son!

La Jolla Oasis: Ocean, City and Fire Works Views
1000/10 ZERO complaints! The views from the patio/front of the house are beautiful. Perfect place to go for runs/walks. My friends and I loved it! We can’t wait to come back in the summer when it’s warm. Back houses are typically not my thing but we never saw or heard anyone. Sometimes you can hear when they’re home because you can hear steps but it’s not loud. The place has everything you need: towels, extra toilet paper, utensils, cups, plates, detergent. We played music on a speaker and laughed day and night, so Sorry Atoosa if my friends and I were loud at all..

Private Garden Guesthouse 9 Miles from LegoLand
Awesome place! Our kids loved it! Lots of games and a beautiful patio. We used the towels, camp chairs and boogie boards that were provided. I have no notes the place was awesome!

SDCannaBnB #1 *420 *parking *dog-friendly *hot tub
So grateful to Zina and Craig for giving me and my besties a safe space to recoup after my birthday dinner. The house was cozy and clean, so thanks again!

Ocean Blue Vista One-Bedroom Private Guest House
Had a lovely stay! Very peaceful, clean, and welcoming. We only stayed one night, but it was just what we needed. Bonus, the fiddle fig plant in living room is gorgeous and thriving! Always a good sign :) 10/10 would recommend, thank you!

New (2022) North Park Abode w/ Roof Deck
BOOK IT! Aesthetically well done, extremely comfortable, perfect location. Really enjoyed my stay here for 5 days. Unit has everything you may need during your stay. Love this neighborhood, so many great restaurants and shops. Parking was always available. Space is squeaky clean and bed is comfy. Next time I’m in SD I will stay here again.

Private Casita on 6-Acres with VIEWS
Jolene and Dane's rental stood out for us. We have lived In Europe and traveled extensively renting all over the world during our journey. Their casita was decorated classy and stylishly...with comfort and convenience in mind. The kitchen was sweet and small w/everything we needed (mainly breakfast.). The TV was like watching our own at home. They thought of every detail to make guests feel ever so comfortable..and ohhh that view. If their calendar allows, we will return. We will return.

Peaceful, Private, Coastal Retreat
Christine's place is very thoughtfully set up. Great attention to detail and extremely responsive. The unit has a private feeling, at the end of a cul-de-sac and with a private outdoor patio space and BBQ. Bright, clean and comfortable. I am a regular Airbnb user, and its easy to tell when a host has anticipated all needs. Excellent kitchen space which I appreciated and used. Highly recommend.

Beautiful Private Villa walk to beach
It’s was amazing staying a Kim’s guesthouse. Felt very private and peaceful. The birds sounded so beautiful in the morning, we thought it was fake at first. The flowers just outside are beautiful. The beach within walking distance was a perfect place to play, lay out, watch the sunset and surfers. We even saw dolphins one night! Just a magical time. We will definitely come back!

San Diego Shangri-La
This apartment is great for 2 people to enjoy the San Diego / La Jolla area. We stayed here for a full month. The apartment is very cozy and the hosts are absolutely fantastic! They have an office set up downstairs (in the garage) and work there most weekdays and occasionally on weekends, so you're not in a totally private house (you have your own entrance and space upstairs), but they are close by for questions. As is prevalent in the area our small dog was very welcome in this apartment. If you have a small dog be wary of coyotes that roam the area.

Gorgeous, Quiet, Clean Guest House, Near It All
You feel like you’re at a resort when staying at Zach’s. The landscaping is phenomenal, tall trees, native plants and gorgeous ornamental touches. The house was immaculate, with plenty of towels and all the things necessary to cook. The hot tub was the best way to end our day. As a super host myself, I 100% recommend Zach’s if in Vista.

Pacific Beach Guest House With Garage and A/C
Had a great stay at this Airbnb. hist provided excellent instructions and the space was accurately described in the listing. Was a great basecamp for visiting San Diego friends and exploring the city.

Private 2 bedroom apt in new craftsman ranch!
Decided to do a stay-cation for my best friend's birthday and Jackie's home was absolutely perfect for it. The location is amazing, the property is extremely beautiful and well maintained. We did a wine tour for my friends birthday and all the wineries we went to were just minutes from the Airbnb. The home was clean, the beds were comfortable, the front porch chairs were perfect to sit in and enjoy a glass of wine. The best part was that you feel completely safe. I personally didn't even feel the need to take the house keys when we left. We left the door unlocked which I would never normally do. I really appreciate Jackie's quick responses and also allowing us to drop off one of the cars early so we didn't have to drive multiple cars around to each winery. - if you stay I recommend cordiano winery for a sunset dinner. Thank you again, Jackie! I can't wait to be back.

Ocean/Lagoon View/New Luxury Casita /Walk To Beach
Joe and Dee Dee were friendly, proactive and communicative hosts. The casita was replete with high end finishes, tastefully decorated and had all the amenities that we could want. It is well located within Carlsbad and we would recommend this to anyone planning a visit to the area.

Beautiful San Diego getaway!
Always a great place to stay when I'm in the area
