The Mermaid House is an amazing place to stay when visiting San Diego. You can see for miles and the photos don't do the views justice! We had no trouble with checking in and the host was very quick to respond back to all inquiries. The location of the house is great, about 25 minutes from the airport and only a few miles from grocery stores, restaurants, and the Mission Beach area. As the host mentions, this property is in a residential area so if your group is more rowdy, this might not be the place for you to stay. Overall this property is 5+ stars!
