We were lucky enough to be one of the first people to stay in Emily’s newly redecorated house. Even though it was unfurnished at the time of booking, we took a chance anyway, given all the great reviews for her other properties. Email stayed in constant contact leading up to and through our stay. We felt that she was available for anything we might need, but her house was so well stocked that we didn't need to call her at all. The description says family friendly and indeed it is! Our 16 month old son had a great time! There were toys to play with inside and outside in the great big yard. I’m a little familiar with San Diego, so I was fairly certain that this would be a good area, but the reality was even better. It’s a great spot that feels quiet, but it’s easy to get anywhere in the area. Beach, zoo, parks, stores, restaurants… all just minutes away! We will definitely be back and hope to stay here for many years to come.
