House vacation rentals in Casa de Oro-Mount Helix

I am a San Diego local, but my family was coming to town and we needed more space. I picked this place because I knew my sister and brother-in-law would love being able to walk to all the restaurants and brewery nearby and my 6 year old nephew would get a lot of use out of the pool. The place exceeded my expectations, it was perfect for everyone. We spent a lot of time in the backyard swimming or playing board games, and my Mom got a lot of use out of the hot tub. Communication with the host was excellent and the place was comfortable and clean. The only downside is my family might visit too often now!

Our host John provides a beautifully decorated home in a quiet, central neighborhood. The setup is exceptional, with both a heated pool and hot tub, and the experience felt like staying in a boutique hotel. He thoughtfully includes amenities like toothbrushes, makeup remover wipes, cotton pads, and more — the attention to detail really impressed us. We absolutely loved our time in La Jolla, and John’s local tips were spot-on. We’ll definitely be returning and highly recommend booking with him.

Cute home with great vibes. Worked perfect for our group of 6 friends to have a little vacay.

We had an incredible stay at Miguel’s Airbnb! The highlight was definitely the pool – it was sparkling clean and well-maintained. Everything was exactly as described, and Miguel was a fantastic host, ensuring we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing, private and hassle-free getaway!

Exactly as the other reviewers have described, it is just a beautiful oasis in a perfect quiet neighborhood. Don’t wait, book now!

We have stayed in many different types of homes both good and bad. But, I’ve gotta say “This one has been BY FAR, THE BEST”!! The view as well as the house is absolutely amazing. The design of the home is gorgeous. The house was extremely clean and the beds were very comfortable. I must mention the squatty potties and bidet’s in the bathrooms… SUPERB!! Before booking my reservation, I asked Van if I could have my family and friends (about 10 people) come over after a graduation ceremony and he said yes. He even accommodated us with extra tables and chairs. My friends and family all loved the place. Van always replied to my messages no matter the time of day or night. There was a hiccup with the fire alarms in the house which was completely out of Van’s control, but he handled it well. He personally appeared to resolve the issue. Meeting Van in person did not disappoint. He is as nice in person as he is in messages. We are definitely going to come back.

The place was clean and well-kept. The 5 rooms had comfortable beds and individual A/C units, adding to the comfort. The backyard was great for hosting. The only minor criticism was the lack of instructions for the fire pit. I managed to turn it on successfully; it produced a strong fire, perfect for cozy nights. There was adequate seating for everyone. Inside, the house felt clean, including the bathrooms. The living room had a large couch and the dining area had a large table, accommodating our group's size. A small improvement would be to hang the towels in the bathrooms to avoid a scavenger hunt. The wifi was down upon arrival and never regained function despite troubleshooting, but my cellular service (T-mobile) was sufficient. The host was very communicative and responsive throughout my stay. I didn’t receive dining recommendations, but it was easy to find places to eat.

Jessica’s home is beautiful and located in a lovely neighborhood that is close proximity to many things. We came to celebrate the graduation of my niece and Jessica’s home was a great place for the family to connect, rest between events and spend time together! Her home is beautifully appointed and was perfect for our stay. Jessica is a great host who communicates with her guests and is very responsive! Her home is filled with good energy and I would definitely book again! for future family events when visiting San Diego!

Wow this place is amazing! As soon was we walked in, from the decor to the ambiance. You go from Spring Valley to being transported to a place of paradise. There is no place like this, I’m telling you guys. If you think the front yard is beautiful, wait till you go to the backyard. We felt so at home and the vibes are just incredible. Did I mention it was dog friendly?! We bring our dog everywhere and this was perfect. Salvacion is a super host for a reason. She’s responsive, very easy to communicate with, and her home is beautiful. I have family in the area, we’ll definitely be coming back and staying here. So glad we found this place!

We stayed at Zeina and Mo's place for one week with our East Coast and West Coast children and grands--6 adults and 6 children in all from ages 2-12. We could not have been more pleased. The house was meticulously clean and was spacious enough for all. The kitchen was well stocked with all we needed to prepare meals at home. An added plus was an outdoor grill under a cabana like space with a table for 6 and outdoor counter to provide additional seating. The pool is larger than it appears in the pictures on the web site. The whole outdoor space was clean and welcoming and proved to be a center piece of our stay. There were plentiful and soft towels for bathing and the pool. Zeina and Mo were promptly responsive to any questions or concerns we had. We left with many fond memories of our week together, in large part due to to how comfortable and pleasant we felt about our stay was at Zeina and Mo's house.

Awesome place to stay. Our family of 6 had plenty of room and enjoyed the outdoor area with a beautiful pool and hot tub. Hosts responded immediately to any questions and were very helpful.

It is a great house and we enjoyed a delightful stay at SD. Brittany is helpful and always reply our questions on time. We will come again if possible.

Very clean. Beds were comfortable. Nice to have air conditioners in each room so we can set the temperature we each liked. Pots and pans were in great shape. Appliances were new. Location was easy to get around. The fruit trees were a fun bonus.

Great place. Private and quiet. Perfect when traveling with older kids, got the upstairs apartment all to themselves. Small but extremely comfortable, has everything you need. The property is beautiful and well taken care of. The basketball goal was perfect for the family. Pool was clean. I 💯 would stay here again. Owner had great communication.

We had the best vacation at Aaron’s place. The house was beautiful, clean, and private. The pool was magnificent and the pickle ball court provided a lot of family fun. Close to all the tourist destinations, coffee, markets, and shopping. Can’t wait to come back again. It was hard to leave. Big thank you to Aaron for providing easy directions, pictures, and responding so quickly.

My stay was awesome..couldn’t really enjoy the amenities as much as I wanted due to our personal itinerary that kept us busy. (Father’s Day weekend) However, I was able to sneak in the jacuzzi once and enjoyed it. Thanks for having us

Great place; about 20 min out from Sea World. Perfect location for 5 of us!

This was my first experience in an Airbnb and I could not have been more pleased. This home is clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed for a week-long stay! Some of the many highlights: Parking is dedicated and convenient. Kitchen well stocked with a full-sized fridge. There is so much room between the kitchen, living/bedroom and the bathroom/bathroom area! Recliners and bed were super comfortable. TV was easy to use and seemed to have a ton of channels, plus apps like YouTube. Water pressure in the shower was *fantastic* (also the shower head situated high on the wall, great for tall guests). Fast internet connection. Quiet neighborhood. I kept the windows and door open all day while I was there. Lovely patio with a table and large umbrella. Very nice and communicative owners! Most importantly, I felt very safe as a solo traveler. I feel lucky I had the opportunity to stay here and would 100% do so again!

This was one of the most amazing experiences we’ve had both my guest and myself. Nice quiet area & easy access to the property & grateful for the parking space Smitty offers!! Living area really spacious & comforting with the bedroom cool & quiet. Smitty made us feel welcomed after a long day traveling around & we appreciate it!!! Thank you again!!

Sarah’s place was clean and comfortable. Easy check in. Host was on top of everything which made it smooth. Definitely worth the money spent. Highly recommended!!!

Diana is kind and a good communicator. I appreciated the thorough directions on how to find the place/get inside. I also liked the quiet neighborhood. The place was as described! Thank you!

Alyssa was a great host! Very responsive and helpful. The location was private and had a great view. The living space was an amazing indoor/outdoor combo and the sliding doors really opened up the living space. Everything was amazing beyond our expectations and would recommend staying here.

I had an incredible stay and can’t say enough great things about this place and our host! The home was spotless, exactly as described, and even more beautiful in person. Every detail was thoughtfully prepared, from the cozy bedding to the well-stocked kitchen. It truly felt like a home away from home. Our host was communicative, kind, and made the entire process smooth from start to finish. Check-in was easy, and they went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. You can tell they really care about their guests’ experience. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, comfortable, and stress-free stay. Thank you for everything!

My family and I stayed at Casa Azul for a few weeks while our home was under construction. Our stay was the absolute best! Brandon was so helpful and responsive, respectful of our privacy, and we really felt at home. The back yard truly is magical as well. I've stayed in a few air bnbs, but this was by far the best! Thank you for being the best hosts!
