Fantastic!!

Review Submitted: October 16, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
This place was amazing. Stop researching because this home is exactly what you are looking for!

We shared the house between two families for 8 nights. Our plan was to tour the San Diego attactions, but I think we would have been just as happy vacationing on the patio and pool 24/7.

As far as luxuries, this house gives you everything you see in the photographs and more. It provided the perfect escape.

The home was in a quiet neighbourhood but close to freeways to give you quick access to shopping, beaches and restaurants.

The owners were fantastic. They were well organized and quick to ensure the the home delivered the 5 star service.

Our only problem is that the vacation was too short. Thanks for everything Bob!
Owner's Response: It was truly nice meeting you all and we certainly hope to have you back again in the near future!

WONDERFUL RETREAT

Review Submitted: October 18, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Business travel required us to be in the San Diego area for the week. We were interested in trying something different from the normal hotel stay. This property is amazing! The design and interior decorating was fabulous...location excellent...pool/spa outrageous. The owner is most accommodating and a delight to work with. We hope to be back in the area over Mother's Day!

Sit back and enjoy the ride

Tango Rose Los Angeles, California
Review Submitted: September 2, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Your first encounter is the double wooden doors that lead to a pathway surrounded by beautiful plants, palm trees and the sound of trickling water. You step up and open the second set of doors to something visual. You body begins to relax. Exquisite bedrooms, floor to ceiling windows, shimmering swimming pool, inviting spa and oh yes a view and more. If your looking for basic this isn't for you. The owners took the time to make this place what it is and it shows. Believe what you've read, Bob is just a phone call away if you need him. A very good man, My friends and I felt good. Had so much fun. I would love to return.
Owner's Response: Carol your the best!!
Thanks for your kind words!

Living up to Expectations

GD50 London, England
Review Submitted: August 29, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Two adults and three older teenage boys arrived with some trepidation; would the house be all that it seemed from the web site pictures? Within moments we knew we'd chosen the right place! The pool and spa are beautiful and the house fully equipped with all that both generations could ask for.
Bob and his partner have great taste and we enjoyed just taking in the way the house has been styled and decorated.
Sadly, we were only in San Diego for a few days but we had a fantastic time and the house was a great hit with us all.
Owner's Response: Thans so much! We hope to have you back again real soon!

A week in paradise

Pearlie Chesterfield, Mo.
Review Submitted: July 28, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
This is absolutely a five star home it had everything we could possibly
want and more, the pictures are not deceiving what you see in the photos is exactly the way it looks in person. The house was very clean
and very well maintained. Bob was so helpful and available for questions and had wonderful restaurant suggestions. We loved the house so much it was sometimes difficult to leave for our planned
activities. The home is located in a great spot, I think it is a twenty
minute or less drive to any location, because of the closeness to the
highways. I would highly recommend this property, I know I am returning next year!
Owner's Response: Thanks sooooo much. We truly hope to see you again next year!

Prior reviews inadequate!

Henderson10 Henderson, NV
Review Submitted: July 9, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
10 (including 4 young children) stayed here 6 nights, while attending family wedding. Saw this on Homeaway.com and read the reviews and immediately reserved place, always wondering if the place would actually live up to what was written? Glad to say that the reviews are actually understated! This is a home in which you immediately feel welcome.

Like many other reviews written, once you settle in, it is quickly decided to forego a lot of the touring one might be inclined to do in the San Diego area. It is just plain relaxing to sit around and enjoy the house and the pool area. A very well stocked house with little missing. Owners met us to show us around, and then left us alone to do our thing! .

Well located and minutes to just about everything good in San Diego, with two freeways within minutes. Quiet neighborhood with minimal traffic, while close by to shopping and a multitude of restaurants, both local and national types.

Can't say enough about how nice the accomodations were. Definetly sorry to have to leave, but we will be back. Owners thought of everything to make you feel at home, from the kitchen appliances/utensils to the linens.

Very glad to recommend this place to anyone considering...adding our comments and reviews to ALL the previous reviews, you will not be disappointed!
Owner's Response: We would have to say that we think you were our cleanest guest's by far. Everything was in it's place and you even had extra loads of laundry taken care of for us. What a treat!! We really hope to have you guys back again.
Thanks so much!

Absolutely Incredible

Gmack Langley, BC, Canada
Review Submitted: April 16, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We had 3 couples celebrating a 50th birthday as a surprise and what a surprise it was! The house is everything you see in the pictures and more. Very luxurious. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool and spa areas, the bedrooms were extremely comfortable with outstanding decorating, and dining outside in the morning with the sun coming up over the valley was wonderful! The house is in a very quiet neighbourhood, yet close to all the freeways so travel to downtown, beaches and shopping is only 10 minutes. The toughest decision we had to make was which deck to lounge on in the evening. Thank you Bob, for giving us the opportunity to enjoy your beautiful home.
Owner's Response: You were the perfect guests!

Dream house for a dream vacation

Pueblo5 Colorado
Review Submitted: March 24, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
We chose this house based on photos but worried about its location in San Diego since we had a busy agenda with 3 children. The house was even more beautiful than the photos and when we got home after a day of San Diego fun -- we didn't want to go anywhere, just order take-out and enjoy the pool and hot tub! The house was impeccably clean, decorated and stocked with amenities for little ones and adults. The owners were accessible, helpful and upbeat. The location is VERY convenient to all highways and it takes less than 15m to get anywhere. The neighborhood is quiet and calm but restaurants and city amenities are easily reached. I would stay here again. The pool was just amazing.
Owner's Response: It was so nice meeting you & it would be great to have you stay again someday.
Take care.

Time of Our Lives!!!!!!!

KrisAnne Indianapolis, IN
Review Submitted: March 9, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
Words cannot accurately describe this house. It was absolutely AMAZING!!!! Each room in the house was decorated extremely well and had all the necessities you needed. It was truly like staying in your very own home. The most used part of the house for my group of friends was the spa/pool. The views were gorgeous and floating in the infinity pool was great. The spa provided entertainment during the day and night. Starting our 4 day stay in San Diego we had grande plans to sightsee but we rarely left the house. It was like being at a weekend retreat.

Bob was amazing!!! He gave great advice on places to go and places to eat. An information book was provided to help get around. Definitlely worth every penny spent. We have already talked about returning. Thanks for everything!!!
Owner's Response: Your group seemed like so much fun! Thanks so much for being such awesome guests! Hope to see you again real soon!

Great Memories!

Review Submitted: March 2, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
Hi Bob,
I want to take a few minutes and express my personal gratitude to you for the help and assistance you provided
to my daughters and me with our various needs and requests. Your help was invaluable and the advice that you gave to my daughters in creating memorable food moments for their mother was superb.
We all had a great time and loved the house. It's not easy to cater successfully to three generations, but you
succeeded. The extra money spent on the pool was well worth it. I think the best memories were created around the pool.
We would not hesitate to recommend, or use
your home again, when the occasion arises.
Thanks again for making this special occasion for our family so successful!
Owner's Response: You are absolutely sooooo welcome.
Hope to see you all again real soon!
Bob
