Catherine's bungalow was a wonderful treat for our family. The location in the heart of San Diego was perfect for our family-close to shopping, the airport, skate parks and the beach! She greeted us upon arrival and left us a bottle of wine and treats in each room. We definitely felt we had our own space. We are a family of 5 with our kids being 13, 17 and 20. We took advantage of the hot tub and the fire pit daily. Just know that although there is a fridge and microwave, there is not a stove nor a sink with a garbage disposal for food-there is a sink, more comparable to a restroom basin-so minimal dishwashing and food prep there-which gives you a chance to dine out! Also, remember that for sleeping, if you get the two extra rooms, they are separate from the bungalow suite. I am sure that is in Catherine's description and I just didn't get it until I saw it. So it worked fine for us, with older kids. It really is a retreat and made great memories celebrating our Thanksgiving at Catherine's wonderful retreat. I highly recommend it. :)
