The house is very spacious and was thoughtfully stocked with all the accoutrements that we might need during our stay. We had a couple of questions during our visit and the hosts answer via text very promptly. The location is a bit loud with the nearby freeway and airport, but you couldn't ask for a more convenient location to get to the tourist stops and downtown. We would definitely stay here or at another of their properties if we visit San Diego again. ##### Lindsay S.

Our group of ten was in for a wedding and enjoyed the place. Very loud outside but quiet within. Some plumbing issues were addressed within 18 hours. ##### Brian D.

We loved the home- it was perfect for our stay in San Diego. It was great having the 2 separate houses and there were so many activities for the kids. We also enjoyed the view- including the airport. It was fun watching the planes. It was a perfect location for exploring the different areas around San Diego. We would definitely recommend this home! ##### Elizabeth S. ### 10/10 Excellent #### glenda P. 21 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place for a large family We enjoyed our stay very much. Everything was clean and well stocked. We don’t typically cook while we’re on vacation, but if this is something you like doing, the kitchen was well equipped with everything you would do. Beds were comfortable as well as the living room furniture. We were busy while we were here (Padres game,San Diego Zoo, Sea World) but when we were at the house, we were all very comfortable. I appreciated the check in information regarding parking do’s & don’ts. Communication with the owner/team was good. Enjoyed our stay! Definitely recommend. ##### glenda P.

We were able to come "home" after a long day of meetings and unwind in a beautiful outdoor space. ##### Kevin K.

Worked seemlessly with baby equipment rental company. Property every bit as beautiful as pictures make it look. Accommodation worked great for our 6 adults 6 kids 6&under. Kids loved all the indoor and outdoor games. Another fav activity: watching planes take off and land out of the beautiful picture window overlook. Beautiful views day and night. . Very fast and easy on off freeway and close to attractions. Comfy beds and thirsty towels. DoorDashed meals and Instacarted groceries from Ralph's. All smooth and timely. Loved this accommodation! ##### Linda A.

The location was PERFECT. The house was exactly what we needed, we wanted for nothing. It is so nice for extended family to get up in the morning in the same place and visit over coffee, eat in peace and be able to talk to everyone. When we were finally able to bring our Marine home, everyone was able to visit with him and stay up late playing games. This is something we could not do at a hotel. I highly recommend Rental With a View. ##### Colleen R.

It was exactly what we needed. The house is a great layout for a big group. It is just as described. Plenty of rooms and bathrooms for everyone. It is very modern and great furniture. It had everything you would expect in a rental house. We loved that each room had a sound machine. The beds were all comfortable and each room's closet had hangers for your clothes. The washer and dryer in unit was also very convenient. It was very centrally located so we were a quick uber from all of the places in San Diego that we wanted to visit and very close to the airport which was convenient. We enjoyed the outdoor space and took advantage of both hot tubs, bags set and fire pit area. It was easy to communicate with the owners and easy instructions to get in the house. Also the check out instructions were so simple which we appreciated. Would definitely recommend this house to anyone that needs a space for a large group. We had a great time! ##### Kristin B. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael R. 17 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Blown away! Adrianne was helpful and thorough in answering all of our questions in advance of our stay. Everything was spot on! Check in was effortless. Property was spotless and welcoming. The amenities and appliances were top notch. Definitely designed for home-away-from-home functionality. Planned out perfectly. The kitchen cabinets had everything you could think of to prepare and serve full family meals. They even provided dishwasher and laundry supplies. Besides plenty of towels, pillows, and extra blankets we discovered beach towels, chairs, toys, and a cooler bag... so off to the beach we went! Jacuzzis were clean and relaxing. We enjoyed the outdoor games and lounge areas which were plentiful. And, yes, the views are great! There were 10 of us and we all wish we could have stayed longer. Even the two kids. The attention to detail and the level of thoughtfulness that went into planning this property was outstanding. Thank you for a wonderful experience!!! ##### Michael R.
