San Diego Lux: 5Bedroom/Remodeled/Solar Heated Pool/Spa/GameRoom/Grill/Workspace

10/10 Excellent
"The House Absolutely Lived Up to the Pictures!We stayed for five nights with 6 adults and 4 kids, ages 8–10, and there was plenty of room for everyone. The house has several different gathering spaces, which made it easy for everyone to spread out, relax, or spend time together. The beds were comfortable, and everyone had a great place to sleep.The pool was a huge hit, and so was the game room. We even had a few very competitive adults vs. kids Mortal Kombat battles! There was always something for everyone to do.The kitchen was well stocked with all the tools we needed, and the coffee bar was a really nice touch. Getting into the city or out to the beaches wasn't bad at all, and there were plenty of local places nearby to grab a bite to eat.One of my favorite features was the front courtyard. It was a wonderful little sanctuary when I wanted to get away from all the activity in the house and enjoy some quiet time.You know how you look through all the pictures before booking and just hope the house actually lives up to the hype? This house did. It was just as advertised and did not disappoint.We had an awesome stay, made some great memories, and would highly recommend this house, especially for families or larger groups. We would definitely stay here again!"

"This was a family vacation. The condo was located on the beach. Each of the bedrooms had a private bath. The kitchen was well stocked. A pleasant surprise was the roof top facilities. Parking was an issue, one assigned spot was very challenging to use."
