This was the perfect little home away from home. Jeff was so easy, friendly and kind to work with. It is centrally located to mission beach, SeaWorld and our new favorite restaurant (Farmer’s Table). A great escape from the AZ heat!!!

Nice

Nice little place to stay. Yard was beautiful and the hot tub was a nice bonus. Wish we had had the time to enjoy the barbecue. Neighborhood had lots of little places to eat..especially if you like Mexican and Thai food. First time with a vacation rental and it was a great experience.

This was a wonderful space for the kind of trip we had planned. We made full use of the kitchen and dining area every morning. We appreciated that the neighborhood was relatively quiet, which helped our anxious dog settle in easier, and close to all of the activities we planned to enjoy. We had some trouble regulating the temperature at night, but overall, this was a great stay!

I’d stay here again

This little casita is really cute and comfortable. It has access to a lovely backyard with fruit trees, shaded sitting area and a hot tub. We were able to bring our dog so the yard was an added feature. It is conveniently located to a freeway. Highly recommend.
