Family-friendly vacation rentals in National City

Amazing property - spacious, incredible interior design, ocean view, huge windows, indoor jaccuzzi. Isaac was exceptionally responsive and helped when it was needed. Really enjoyed our stay as we had to evacuate from LA.

Alain was a great host. Very responsive and provided good recommendations for restaurants and other activities in the neighborhood. Plus, the rooftop deck and hot tub was amazing.

Great location. It's near a surfer beach, but if you're comfy with the ocean, it's a great hang. Also, within about 10m of the main La Jolla Beach which is superb. Cy has all your needs for a great beach stay: boogie board, umbrella, towels, chairs, sand mat, toys. Close location to some decent food. Cy communicates quickly and thoroughly, but otherwise stays out of your way. Place was very clean with a cool shower head. Neighbors in the apartment were very friendly as well. Would absolutely recommend for a beach stay.

Our family loved staying here. The home is beautiful and so refreshingly cozy. We found it very easy to relax and settle right in. Our family really enjoyed being within walking distance of the beach and of great restaurants, coffee, and shopping. My husband and I appreciated the laidback, easygoing feel of the neighborhood, and our boys were both pretty devastated when the time came to leave. Aaron was a wonderfully communicative and responsive host. It was clear they’ve put a lot of thought into creating a refreshing, stress-free space for their guests. We’d love to come back again!

Place was very comfortable very clean and very relaxing. I will definitely recommend it. Also, I would rebook this.💜💜

Great location, walkable to beach, restaurants and sights - house was as described and comfortable. We will definitely rent here again!

Larry and Andrea were amazing hosts! From start to finish, they were incredibly responsive and helpful, making for a great stay. Their place is fantastic, fully equipped with everything you could possibly need—and even more than what’s listed online. If you’re planning a trip to San Diego and this spot is available, you’re missing out if you don’t book!

We loved our stay here! Everything we needed and were looking for in a place, and the area was so cool! Hosts were amazing as well, extremely nice and helpful.

We had a wonderful time spending Thanksgiving at Isabelle’s place. The house is so cozy and the beds were very comfortable. She had everything you would need to prepare a meal and a beautiful backyard to enjoy the weather. We brought our dog who had a great time exploring the yard and taking walks in the neighborhood. There are tons of great restaurants within walking distance and a couple of stores if you need to pick up groceries. Isabelle was a very responsive host and even left us some fresh baked cookies for us. We would definitely stay here again!

What an incredible place! We stayed for two nights with our dog and felt right at home! Our host was SO helpful and kind. The place was immaculate, clean, beds comfortable- what more could we ask for! A great stay if you’re in San Diego!

We had a great stay. Would definitely recommend to friends and family.

Great location to be near my daughter who lives near there. Fully stocked kitchen! Very clean. Good parking. Very communicative owner. Very clean. Comfy beds. Good cable tv. Overall, we are very satisfied. The price is very steep esp with all the added taxes and fees from the company. But that’s not because of the owner. I will rent again next year, too.

Though the room was a part of the house, it felt like a separate studio. The area was in a nice location and the host was very friendly. I couldn't find the remote and the host purchased and delivered the next day; very kind and responsive. They even had complimentary wine and beer to enjoy the stay. This place is a hidden gem and I do recommend if you're visiting or a quick getaway. Thank you so much!

We had a wonderful time. We enjoyed sitting around the fire in the evenings. There was plenty of space for our group. The water was hot and lasted through 7 showers each morning. Very close to everything and easy to get around.

Accommodations were spacious, clean, quiet and comfortable. They suited our needs (visiting daughter and husband in Kensington) perfectly. Parking was always available in a driveway, an important consideration where street parking is prevalent. Shower water was hot, climate controls easy to use. When we return to San Diego, this will be the first place we try to book.

I'm an OB resident who needed a place to stay while my apartment was getting work done. Tania and Mike's place was perfect, it felt spacious and the outdoor area was perfect for my pup. the hosts were quick to respond and were very friendly. I would definitely stay here again!

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.

Vanessa was very communicative & answered any questions right away. The location is PERFECT! A short walk to the beach. The house had so much for our kiddos to do & was fully equipped! Definitely kid friendly. The kitchen had everything you could need! The pool and hot tub were beautiful & clean! The downfall to the hot tub, is you have to turn it on an hour before you use it each time. I believe it’s new so they’re still working out some kinks with the buttons. Vanessa was helpful with this though. There are also apartment complexes that look down into the yard, so not much privacy. I would rate this a 5, but there are a few cons. We had 8 people in our group, 3 being children. Thankfully we were all family so we snuggled in, but I think it’s more like a 6 person house or you are on small cots. You’re kind of on top of each other. The floors are creaky so no sleeping in once someone is awake & the furniture could use some updating. It was torn. Overall the location makes it 5 stars

Beautiful and peaceful home. Would definitely come back. Jeffery responds quick if anything is needed 🤩

We were in San Diego to visit with family who live in Teri’s neighborhood, so the location was very convenient for us. Everything was comfortable and as described. Teri was super responsive and very helpful. I would stay there again.

Highly recommend this host! We are a family of three and truly enjoyed our stay. The location is very convenient, has an upscale feel, and boasts a pleasant view of the bay from the balcony. The home was clean and well appointed. We appreciated the ease of entering the home and the prompt responses from the host whenever we had a question. We especially enjoyed the kitchen appliances, layout of the unit, and thoughtful amenities/accessories which allowed us to save on expenses by eating-in and planning our meals out. The neighborhood is safe and we felt secure in the home. The host was proactive in making sure it met our needs and ensuring the pool was ready for our stay. The pool was quite warm and kept clean. This is a home we'd certainly consider renting again. The furniture in the living room is a bit worn, but quite comfortable, and there are TVs throughout. WiFi was easy to connect with and all instructions are clear and easy to follow. Don't miss out on this one!

We were very grateful to be able to stay for a few days in San Diego. This home was very clean and very cool. My daughter thought it was the fanciest place we had ever stayed :) we loved the heated pool, walking around the neighborhood, and there are many great restaurants and cafes close by. We went with two small kids and while it has more of a fun bachelor pad vibe we had an incredibly fun and relaxing stay.

We had a wonderful stay! Greg and Leslie were so welcoming and kind and their home is beautiful and very enjoyable. Hope to be back again soon.

We really enjoyed our stay! The host was responsive to any questions I had. The place was clean and well kept. The property itself was great- dog friendly, close by to different restaurants and beaches. We will definitely be back!
