Adorable San Diego Guesthouse
I have never stayed in South Park before. This location was so fun! Lots of little places to walk to. No issues with parking.

Lovely Guesthouse in garden setting
We are so grateful to have been able to stay at Gwynn's place, it is so peaceful and lovely. Like a secret garden getaway. We loved all the small touches, and beauty of the space. Gwynn made us feel very welcome and comfortable! The pool is amazing and the outdoor spaces are delightful. Can't wait to stay here again.

Fig Tree Bungalow
This place was great for our quick weekend trip. Definitely worth the price.

Private Family Friendly Casita/Guesthouse
The casita was perfect for my family! It was bigger and even nicer in person. Robert was responsive and friendly. It was very clean, and had everything you need. We would love to stay there again!

Cozy Cottage in Encinitas Highlands
Carol and Tony provided everything we needed for a lovely family vacation- they accommodated our needs while traveling with a toddler and their guest house felt like a home away from home! Their backyard is heavenly and was the perfect place to relax in between all our outings. They are the nicest couple and I would recommend their lovely cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat with easy access to all SoCal has to offer.

Retreat house. Nature, Hot Tub, Views!
We had a wonderful stay at Meaghan's place! She was non intrusive yet quick to respond when we had a question. As for the airbnb, it was spectacular! Inside was comfortable and had everything we needed. The outside - well the pictures can't quite capture the intense beauty of the surroundings. I loved the yoga platform and playing with her cats. A great place to decompress and make peace with the world.

Cosy quiet Guesthouse near SDSU
Guest house on a quiet street, fairly close to SDSU. It was "home base" for our stay in San Diego, while visiting family. Easy access to highways. Local stores & restaurant s nearby. Cute kitchen & patio area. Well maintained.

Private Family Friendly Guest House
We had a perfectly comfortable stay and would come back again the next time we are in town if available. The backyard is amazing!

Golden Hour Guesthouse
We loved our stay, it was the perfect jumping off point for our adventures in San Diego

Adorable cottage in Talmadge
Another great visit! Convenient location coupled with wonderful amenities, along with Carlos’ hospitality makes this a top choice for us when visiting San Diego to see our son!

Private 1 BR Paradise retreat
This was our second stay at Jeanne and John's beautiful Airbnb. These hosts are absolutely the best! They are responsive when needed but are not obtrusive in any way. The unit is beautifully decorated, and has any amenity you could possibly need. The mattress and bedding are very comfortable, which is something that is important to older folks like us. The location is wonderful, and the guests have a beautiful back yard that is private, beautifully landscaped, and set up for those days when you are tired of sight-seeing and just want a beautiful, poolside place to relax and unwind. We highly recommend Jeanne and John's place and hope to return again one day.

La Jolla Oasis: Ocean, City and Fire Works Views
1000/10 ZERO complaints! The views from the patio/front of the house are beautiful. Perfect place to go for runs/walks. My friends and I loved it! We can’t wait to come back in the summer when it’s warm. Back houses are typically not my thing but we never saw or heard anyone. Sometimes you can hear when they’re home because you can hear steps but it’s not loud. The place has everything you need: towels, extra toilet paper, utensils, cups, plates, detergent. We played music on a speaker and laughed day and night, so Sorry Atoosa if my friends and I were loud at all..

New! Beautiful Private Casita- King Bed & Office
Really enjoyed Alberto’s place, it’s nicely tucked away and provided a nice retreat from the busy area. We were able to relax and had all of the comforts of home. We really enjoyed the comfy couch and bed which allowed us to relax after a very busy few days. Off street parking was very nice as we had a busy agenda the few days we were in town and it was nice having our car in the driveway and secure off the street. Would absolutely stay again and recommend to anyone in the area.

SDCannaBnB #1 *420 *parking *dog-friendly *hot tub
So grateful to Zina and Craig for giving me and my besties a safe space to recoup after my birthday dinner. The house was cozy and clean, so thanks again!

Cozy, Quiet and Private Backyard Studio Escape
This was the perfect Air Bnb for our honeymoon in San Diego. It was in a great area, and the location was 15 minutes from everything we wanted to do! Couldn't recommend more

New (2022) North Park Abode w/ Roof Deck
BOOK IT! Aesthetically well done, extremely comfortable, perfect location. Really enjoyed my stay here for 5 days. Unit has everything you may need during your stay. Love this neighborhood, so many great restaurants and shops. Parking was always available. Space is squeaky clean and bed is comfy. Next time I’m in SD I will stay here again.

Beautiful Private Villa walk to beach
It’s was amazing staying a Kim’s guesthouse. Felt very private and peaceful. The birds sounded so beautiful in the morning, we thought it was fake at first. The flowers just outside are beautiful. The beach within walking distance was a perfect place to play, lay out, watch the sunset and surfers. We even saw dolphins one night! Just a magical time. We will definitely come back!

San Diego Shangri-La
This apartment is great for 2 people to enjoy the San Diego / La Jolla area. We stayed here for a full month. The apartment is very cozy and the hosts are absolutely fantastic! They have an office set up downstairs (in the garage) and work there most weekdays and occasionally on weekends, so you're not in a totally private house (you have your own entrance and space upstairs), but they are close by for questions. As is prevalent in the area our small dog was very welcome in this apartment. If you have a small dog be wary of coyotes that roam the area.

Pacific Beach Guest House With Garage and A/C
Had a great stay at this Airbnb. hist provided excellent instructions and the space was accurately described in the listing. Was a great basecamp for visiting San Diego friends and exploring the city.

Private 2 bedroom apt in new craftsman ranch!
Decided to do a stay-cation for my best friend's birthday and Jackie's home was absolutely perfect for it. The location is amazing, the property is extremely beautiful and well maintained. We did a wine tour for my friends birthday and all the wineries we went to were just minutes from the Airbnb. The home was clean, the beds were comfortable, the front porch chairs were perfect to sit in and enjoy a glass of wine. The best part was that you feel completely safe. I personally didn't even feel the need to take the house keys when we left. We left the door unlocked which I would never normally do. I really appreciate Jackie's quick responses and also allowing us to drop off one of the cars early so we didn't have to drive multiple cars around to each winery. - if you stay I recommend cordiano winery for a sunset dinner. Thank you again, Jackie! I can't wait to be back.

La Casita Private Resort Spa and Mini Golf Course
A beautiful setting & lovely guest house with charming decor. I prefer a no-host/no deadline check-in, especially as we were driving down from Los Angeles on a Friday afternoon, a 2.5-hour drive that took 5 hours -- and I was sweating that deadline the whole way. I was prepared for it, but ... The place could use a bit of maintenance/professional cleaning -- found a sock and dog bone under the bed, indicating that it hadn't been swept under there. The water seemed low in the Jacuzzi when we got in and an unpleasant foam formed almost immediately upon entry. Was not clear that it had been cleaned (or how well it had been cleaned) before our arrival. The host did warn us to watch our footing & heads while traversing the property, but the planking to the Jacuzzi and elsewhere, as well as hand-holds on railings, should be attended to. Wifi was weak/unreliable. Wasn't crazy about freeway noise either. All that having been said, it's a gem of a place that just needs updated TLC.

❤ Cozy Private Studio w/ WD 2 Minutes from Freeway
Wonderful stay! Home away from home! had everything I needed for an extended stay. Will be back for sure!

Quaint Craftsman#2- Walkable, Parking, EV Charging
Loved this Airbnb! My husband and I cMe to SD to take our 1 year old son to the San Diego Zoo and this Airbnb was only 10 minutes away. This Airbnb also had so much stuff for infants, from a pack and play to plastic bowls and spoons to a high chair. Super convenient and the perfect size for us.

Indoor/Outdoor Sanctuary in Ocean Beach
Great place! We will definitely stay again!
