This is our second time at this beautiful place! The location can’t be beat and is truly the best of both worlds— totally serene and private with amazing treetop views, yet walkable to one of San Diego’s most hip neighborhoods. We live in San Diego and know it well, and this sweet, traditional home is my top pick for a staycation. Is is central for tourists, to get around and see all the sites. For us, we stayed very local and loved being at the house and exploring the immediate neighborhood. The garden is truly a gem— you can sit and have breakfast or coffee overlooking the park, golf course and city in the distance, or watch sunset and eat on the side terrace. You will be surrounded by birds chirping, butterflies, and bees, in a stunning native garden.
We walked everywhere and our son loved going on his scooter and to the park. We tried Communal Coffee- yum and stylish (but not great service)... Kindred for vegan fare and cocktails, Buona Forchetta, our fave, actually very quick and super friendly service. Good for groups, dates, or family. Del Sur for Mexican and happy hour. This is a welcoming, fun neighborhood to make your home base for whatever brings you to San Diego! And Ann’s home is set on the most gorgeous piece of parkland in the center of it all.
