Best Staycation in La Mesa

We stayed at this location to celebrate my husband's birthday, and I can truly say that the host Amit and this family-owned listing made it one of, if not THE, best stay we've ever had after doing over 5 years of property rentals. Amit was so kind to stock the fridge with a 12 pack to kick off the birthday weekend; but this house had absolutely everything our party of 4 needed for a three day pool staycation. Two minor caveats: we had our heart set on grilling, but the propane tank wouldn't ignite. Worse, the drip tray looked like it hadn't been cleaned in many stays, and I didn't expect that considering the directions for property asked for people to clean the grill and drip tray before checking out if it had been used. Additionally, the listing is just a tiny bit misleading; technically, there are two units on the property, not just the stand alone home as indicated in the description. When I read "home to yourself", I would think it would be the only building on the property, and there were others staying in the other unit in the property which we didn't expect. However, the pool is not shared and is only for the use of people booking this listing, which mattered most.Despite those two small caveats, it did not impede the 5 star rating this host and listing deserved. However, it still might be preferred to know those details if they are deal breakers, although they definitely were not for us. We would book this listing again in a heartbeat - thanks again, Amit!

A beautiful home for a beautiful gathering

We rented this beautiful property for 3 days as it was near our niece's home and a small family reunion. It provide us with a fine and reasonable resting place but to our surprise, a place for three families with little girls to enjoy an afternoon swim. It is lovely from top to bottom, with a kitchen that is first-class and appointments throughout the home to match. It is the nicest VRBO we've stayed in. Our host was gracious and engaged. The only negative was three parties in the neighborhood on near and/or adjacent sites, a inconvenient stroke of bad luck. Otherwise, it was very peaceful, quiet and safe. We plan to rent the property again, should it be available for next-years family reunion.

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful house. From booking to checking out, everything was easy. Communication with the owners was great! If I had a question, they responded quickly. The house is beautifully decorated and my family felt very comfortable. Our family really enjoyed spending time by the pool and swimming. The patio area is perfect for relaxing so we got a lot of uno games in. I loved that the kitchen had everything we need to cook our family a meal. We would definitely stay here again!
