Our stay at Ben & Ilonas house was perfect. It was everything as described and much better. On arrival we were greeted by Ben and shown how everything works. He had been to the local Donut shop and left us two Vegan Donuts to try and some freshly picked fruit from his tree - all delicious. The neighbourhood is great to stroll about and you are spoilt for choice at night with eateries and bars - we particularly liked “Waypoint” for drinks and a real good burger & “Splash” for a unique wine tasting experience. All other areas are super easy to get too, main beaches are a 15 minute drive away and Balboa park is within walking distance - be sure to get a coffee from Santos en route - it was amazing. The only thing we was disappointed in was not having extra time in San Diego and getting to have a better chat with Ben & Ilona in their lovely garden area. Will be sure to stay again when we next visit SD :)
