We couldn’t have chosen a more perfect place for our young family to stay for our weekend in San Diego visiting the zoo.
We have a 15mo and 3yr old who are curious and busy kids. This house was clean, minimalist with lots of charm, and well kept. Childproof covers were on the outlets. We used Michael’s (host) crib in the room with the queen bed for our 15mo and the single bed with the trundle was for our 3yr old son. There was a basket of Legos that both kids enjoyed in addition to the outside toys (corn popper, push wagon, bean bag toss game and basketball ball). They also had a highchair. It was all perfect for our curious “littles”.
For the grown ups, a bottle of red wine, lots of coffee kcups and a hammock added to the vacation experience. We prepared our Home Chef dinners there and had all of the utensils and cookware we needed.
My personal favorite part was the fully blossomed orange tree right outside the back door, adjacent to the lemon tree also full of fruit. The smell of neroli was captivating.
Parking was great, the neighborhood walking distance to fun restaurants and shops of North Park, a park with playground down the street and Balboa Park only 8minutes away made the location ideal.
I felt safe and at home and when the kids were napping It felt like a retreat lounging in the hammock under the orange tree.
Michael (host) communicated with me within the hour before, during and after our stay with helpful info and responses to my questions/requests.
We would stay here again in a heartbeat!
