Secluded, Charming and Unique! Spacious Apartment EXCELLENT Central Location, hotel in San Diego

Set in San Diego in the California region, Secluded, Charming and Unique! Spacious Apartment EXCELLENT Central Location has a patio.

This was a great apartment, very spacious. We originally had a party of 5 attending, unfortunately by the time of the stay my sister and my mom's husband could not attend so it was just myself, my partner and my mom. Had all 5 us been staying, there still would have been ample space for us all. Really spacious. I had a bit of trouble working the thermostat for the air con, but I've been living in the UK for the last 15 years without ever having to use one so it was down to me just not being familiar with them! The beds were comfy and clean. Sofas downstairs were comfy. It was a good location, and not too far from the things we wanted to do. It was great to have our own space to come back to after adventuring during the day and being able to cook our own breakfasts etc. We really enjoyed our stay here!

Pacific Beach Butterfly Suite, hotel in San Diego

Pacific Beach Butterfly Suite has a patio and is set in San Diego, within just 1.2 km of Pacific Beach and 1.6 km of Mission Beach. Situated 1.8 km from Tourmaline Surfing Park Beach.

This was an absolute find! Terrific on every level. There were so many thoughtful amenities left for guests it was delightful.! We only had one night but will stay again for sure. We’ve told everyone at our over the weekend event, how awesome Butterfly Suite was (at the risk of it being booked up all the time and we can’t get in next time!!). Thanks for being an exceptional experience!

Garden House, hotel in San Diego

Situated in San Diego, 14 km from Torrey Pines State Reserve and 14 km from University of San Diego, Garden House features garden views and free WiFi.

The garden is really a great place for sitting, dining and having a good time outside. There is space for 8 at the table. There is light in the evening and even a small waterfall. The area is calm and peaceful. Note that the garden is the garden of the main house and you may cross the owners for a nice chat or when they have their barbecue... The location is easy access from principal roads and 15-20 min drive to most locations of interest in the San Diego area. Trolley station is not too far away (5 min by taxi ). Uber is working well. Close to university city.

    Amenities were amazing! So much to do here. We utilized the large basketball court and movie night on the 4 floor and also the nice size family pool. We loved that we were able to walk everywhere, sea port village, around the harbor and downtown). We were even able to take the tram to the Padres Game at Petco Stadium. Very convenient and great location!

    The facilities and add ons were fantastic. Really enjoyed the breakfast service in the morning, the reception drinks in the evenings and the credits for the gift shop. Staff were noticeably friendly and always going the extra mile. Pool and fitness facilities were great. Room was very comfortable even as a shared space for 6 people. Location is ideal also for acces to Seaport village and walking distance to most of the city. Over all an excellent experience that I highly recommend.
