If you're looking for a place that makes you feel like you're in the middle of the jungle while also being in the middle of the city, this is it.
The entire backyard deck is (forgive the pun) decked out in jungle landscape, from bamboo trees to all kinds of zen garden elements. I was shocked at how big the property is, yet how secluded I could feel in my own space. (I had the smaller cabin on the lowest level of the property.)
If I had any qualms, it was that I could not get decent internet access from my cabin. However, that qualm was met with an expedient response from the owner on how they were attempting to take care of the issue for me. There were some upgrades being done recently, so I understand how that can happen and I wouldn't consider it to be an issue if you're thinking of staying here. Besides, the common area is large, plush, and has plenty of high speed internet access if you desperately need something.
My favorite part—the outdoor shower. As someone who has lived on a beach in Jamaica and South Africa and built his own outdoor showers at multiple properties, this was easily the part that won me over the most. If you want to take a trip to what feels like an exotic location while enjoying the beautiful city of San Diego (exotic in its own right), I'd check this place out.
