A very comfortable house with everything thing you need for a fun relaxing stay of a few days or a few weeks. The backyard feels private. We spent most of our time at the house hanging out in and around the pool and hot tub. There is a little road noise during the day. But the neighborhood is very quiet at night. There are 4 restaurants, a coffee shop, and a small store a little over a block away (close, but not so close that you hear noise from the businesses). And there is a great park and bay beach about a 10 minute walk from the house. The location of the house is in a perfect spot to head out to any of the major San Diego area with only a short drive.
