La casita is perfect for visiting San Diego. It is the perfect size, very convenient to the major sightseeing areas, and local shops. If you like visiting and shopping in farmer markets, don't hesitate to ask Al where the next one will be host. With San Diego being so close to many farmers, you could get the most wonderful fruits, veggies, and meat in the US. And if you are looking for fresh seafood to cook, Al and Sibyl know the best markets to visit.
Previours reviewers have mentioned Al's granola, you have to try it to know why we all think is so delicious ;).
Al and Sibyl are wonderful hosts, with the best recommendations for things to do and where to eat in San Diego. They are also full of interesting stories, and wonderful anecdotes to share with their hosts.
In addition, they are artists and their house is full of wonderful art, worth is on time for exploring. If you are lucky, you can visit Sibyl's book print shop and see how old prints used to work, and how her shop is bringing back the art of book printing.
We had a fantastic week in San Diego staying at La Casita, and we will definetely stay there if we visit San Diego again.
