Overall we had a fantastic stay! I booked this airbnb for my birthday/girls trip! This airbnb was a very spacious house with comfortable beds enough to fit everyone. After the first night everyone spoke about how comfy the beds were. I loved how all rooms had usb plug ins on the lamps, which we thought was really cool.
Upstairs had the master w/ a private balcony, 2 rooms both with bunk beds and an extra bed and a bathroom. Downstairs had 1 extra room and bathroom + the back guest house with a sofa bed and bathroom. The kitchen was equipped with necessary cooking supplies, utensils and some spices. I still suggest bringing your own cups/plates/utensils/garbage bags/dish soap & paper towels. There are plenty of towels for everyone to swim and shower in. We loved the spacious backyard lounge area with the fire pit and how it was privately gated.
This house is in a great location, minutes to downtown and a lot of shopping centers were right around the corner. There’s a 7-11 right next door and a grocery store which made it convenient for last minute things we needed.
We had already paid for the spa services before even going on the trip and on the first night when the spa didn’t turn on, i contacted the host. They told me i didn’t book it even though i already paid for it. She had to do her research and call me back. She apologized and told us she would be sending someone to turn the services on. The spa hours were limited to a 3 hour window which was an inconvenience for us when we had dinner plans as we weren’t able to use the spa. They made accommodations and allowed us to just have a longer time the following day, but it still was a bit of an inconvenience because we weren’t able to explore much of San Diego cause we wanted to also have our hours in the spa, so we had to keep tailoring our schedule to the spa times.
One thing that I would say, as an airbnb service, the pool and spa should be an included amenity with the rental because in reality that’s why everyone wants to rent this house. However, spa and pool services are an extra charge per day, have limitations & they don’t mention that someone has to come and turn the spa services on/off. I didn’t like the idea of a man coming to turn the spa on/off while girls were in the hot tub late at night. It made us uncomfortable to have him there every day while we were enjoying our stay and felt like we were being watched/babysat and we really did not like that. All airbnb services i’ve been to i have not had someone come during my stay so that really caught us off guard.
Overall, we had a great stay and i would recommend this rental to anyone!
