Like a Private Resort!!

When choosing where to stay for our honeymoon, this place immediately caught our eyes, from the view of San Diego to all of the things to do just on the property! A big plus too is this property being very central to all of the great things to see and do in this beautiful city. The host was most informative and friendly which also added to the experience. Thank you so much, we can’t wait to book again!

Annual Month of July San Diego Get-A-Way.

We could not have been happier with this house or it's owners. We spend the month of July in San Diego each year to visit family and to escape the summer Texas heat and humidity. Of all of the 7 places we're rented, this house was far and above all the others--no question. You can tell the minute you step through the door that Lynn and Dan love their house and their wonderful taste is so evident. The side yard and back patio are wonderful places to visit with family or to just relax in the cool breezes. The kitchen is more than well equipped. This rental didn't feel like the usual rental, this truly felt like a home. Thank you Lynn and Dan.

What an amazing house

Let me start off by saying the pictures do not do this house justice. Beautiful furnishings, gorgeous backyard and view. Spacious home with plenty of space. We had 5 in our party, two shared two beds and the 5th stayed in the den on the pullout couch. The mattress on that was very comfortable and not your standard pull out couch mattress. The pool/hot tub were a wonderful way to end each day. Communication with Lynn before booking, before traveling and after were all excellent. Quick to respond and lots of information given to add to our stay. We would definitely stay here again and give it a 5 out of 5 star rating.

Beautiful home made for a fantastic stay!

This home is beautiful and gave us a view that was stunning. Conveniently located for the things we did in the area. The owners were easy to work with and responded wittily to questions.

Fantastic

We were a group of adults and teenagers looking for a place to stay in close proximity to Fiesta Island. The home was better than described. Extremely well appointed, with killer outdoor space to relax and enjoy a view of the ravine and ocean in the distance. Very private and felt like you were not 3 minutes from Starbucks, grocery and major driving arteries, which we were. The common area was spacious and beautiful finished with comfortable seating. The beds were as described and comfortable. I have stayed in many VRBO's, this was among the best and is what VRBO used to be, in my opinion: renting a home the owners otherwise live in. This means the place is more homey and has everything you need and beyond, including spices and condiments. It is not like a sterile hotel environment with every drawer and closet empty, although was more than enough space for our suitcases and things. All communication was promptly answered. I could tell there was maximum effort to make the space as uber welcoming beforehand. The owners went the extra while and it was very appreciated and made our stay better. I spent a lot of time deciding and investigating where our group would stay while in San Diego. I believe I achieved rockstar status in my group for finding the perfect place. You can't go wrong - pick this place.

About the host

Hosted by Lynn Haims and Dan Wettstein

We met in San Diego, but moved to Orange County for work, and lived there for 15 years. As soon as we had the right opportunity, we moved back. It took 8 months to find this property, and almost 2 more to design and complete the remodel. It's been a labor of love and we're always making improvements. We are self-employed and work here, but can easily take work with us. We love to travel and visit friends and family.

Why they chose this property

We wanted to be near the water but not at the beach (away from traffic and crowds.) A view was one of our wishes, and when we saw this place, with a park below and unobstructible water views, we were hooked. The house was a cute 1300 sf bungalow, which we expanded and rebuilt. We love San Diego and this location is convenient to everything.

What makes this property unique

1/2 mile to Mission Bay where we can launch our boat, go for a run or bike ride. Just a bit farther is Fiesta Island, with more beaches, a private waterski cove, and off-leash dog friendly policy. There are so many things to do within minutes - museums, golfing, parks, hiking, restaurants, historical sites. This is our forever home, and we're happy you can enjoy it when we're away. You've probably never seen a vacation rental like this one! One of our guests dubbed it "The Hummingbird House," as we have several feeders and entertain many of the charming creatures. The kitchen is a chef's dream, with every appliance you could want, and spices/condiments to help make your meals delicious.
