We had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful home in a fantastic location. Instructions were clear and concise and it was clean! Would stay here again!
This property is in the very cool North Park neighborhood. Restaurants, breweries and Balboa Park are within walking distance. Short drive to the water and all the sights and activities there. Recommend!.
A friend and colleague and I stayed for a week for a conference, so that we needed not only a place to stay, but also to work together and have some privacy at the same time.Andre's bungalow provided all of that: it is very comfortable, easy to share, has all the amenities you could want - and all of that in the heart of North Park, walking distance to e.g. Santos Coffee and Grand Ole BBQ, to name two of my favorites.Andre himself was very open, helpful and responded promptly to all requests.I can warmly recommend his place!
Me, my wife and sister in law stayed at the Vrbo this weekend for the Rock and roll half marathon. We are all originally San Diego locals so we had a packed schedule seeing friends and family. The Vrbo was a great location and walking distance to everything. Clean place.
We had a wonderful stay, the neighborhood is cute and quiet while being close enough to walk into the heart of north park. Andre was a wonderful and responsive host!
My family was looking for a place to stay that was just outside the city, but close enough to all the fun. We loved staying here. Very comfortable arrangements. Quiet neighborhood with easy to access property. The host was great at communicating and provided some nice neighborhood resources. We would highly recommend this property to anyone staying in the San Diego area.
We enjoyed our stay in this VRBO. It is located in a quiet neighborhood, comfortable, and close to Balboa Park, downtown and the waterfront. There is a lack of dinner plates and food bowls in the kitchen area, which was otherwise well equipped.
Overall our stay was comfortable. The general location of the house put us within easy distance of North Park and area businesses. The property itself was ok. While it suited our needs, it wasn’t anything special. The description did not say it was actually located behind another home. You need to enter through a back gate blocked by cars from the front house. After going through the gate, you need to walk down a path that allows you to see directly into the front house which was awkward. The property needs some TLC for sure as the couch and area rugs are looking worn and dingy. Overall our stay was fine and Andre responded quickly to my messages but the pictures and description of the property are somewhat misleading.
We had a wonderful time there, the location is great and the space was great. The host was very responsive. We appreciated being able to change our reservation to a later date when health problems came up. We would stay there again.
Cozy and quiet location in North Park - tucked away from the street
Great place to stay- the host accommodated a last-minute request to stay another day as our original flight home was canceled. I highly recommend the VRBO and am grateful to the host!
Andre was a very considerate host. When we entered the home we found a bottle of wine for us and bottled water in the fridge. I really appreciated the stock of k cups that were available.The cozy little house had all we needed. It was in a very nice convenient neighborhood. If we have occasion to visit San Diego we will definitely consider staying here again.

Enjoyed the neighborhood and the house. We loved the area too. It was close to everything we wanted to do. We never drove more than 4 miles including to Balboa Park, Old Town, Little Italy, the ferry to Coronado and the airport. Perfect for first time visit!
Great house and location! Couldn’t ask for a better location close to everything. Had all the amenities. Easy street parking. Easy check in and communication with the host. Could use some more kitchen dishes, cooking and storage containers. Definitely would stay here again!
