La Casita - Fully Updated Casita in Mission Hills
Stephen's place met our needs for our 2 night stay. The space was small but well-appointed and it was nice to sit out in the garden. It is in a beautiful area that is walkable to restaurants and a park. Stephen was very helpful and friendly. Recommended for a couple who want to enjoy a good neighborhood that is convenient to sights in San Diego

New Guest House - North Park
Lynae’s place was wonderful, as was Lynae! Balboa park right nearby, with gorgeous trails and scenery. Walkable to North Park area which had a fun variety of bars, shops, and restaurants. Lynae was a wonderful host - responsive, kind, flexible - and the home was bright, airy, with gorgeous views. We couldn’t say enough good things about the wall of jasmine walking in. Thank you Lynae for having us in your home!

Cozy Cottage 1/2 mile to North Park close to dtwn
Excellent place. We loved the location relative to the sites we wanted to see. Free parking, laundry, very well stocked kitchen, comfortable bed. We were very comfortable and happy here. And as a host Wendy was phenomenal. One of the most responsive hosts I’ve had the pleasure of connecting with on Airbnb. Thank you Wendy!!!

Charming North Park Cottage
My wife and I stayed here with our nearly 6mo old son. Check in was a breeze. Place was perfect for the 3 of us. May have been too small if it were 4 adults. The neighborhood is great. Really felt like home for us. Plenty of street parking and very walkable to many restaurants and bars.

Family friendly 2BR casita w/AC & rooftop Igloo
Amanda went above and beyond as a host! When I mentioned I had a toddler she left several toys, books, and necessities when traveling with a little one. She is extremely thoughtful as a host. The home was beautiful and perfect for our family of three!

North Park, San Diego's Best At Your Doorstep
I had such a great time staying at Les’s Airbnb. Everything is exactly as described. My favorite part was definitely the fire pit. I used it every night of my stay. I would definitely book with Les again on my next trip to San Diego.

Private 1 BR Paradise retreat
Jeanne and John's place was exactly as advertised in the description and photographs. The backyard and pool were beautiful unfortunately the weather and our schedule of events did not permit us time to indulge. If we ever needed a place in the area again we would definitely reserve another stay. We felt so welcomed and the extras were so thoughtful...like a balloon for my husband's birthday and a handwritten welcome letter. Thank you for the hospitality!

New! Beautiful Private Casita- King Bed & Office
My wife and I had a wonderful stay. Place was clean, host was responsive to any questions, the bed was comfortable, and it was close to many tourist locations. Would definitely recommend!

Cozy Urban Casita! Near Zoo, Gaslamp and Coronado
I loved staying here! This location is close to everything, you don’t have to drive so far or go out of your way, everything is only a few minutes away. There’s even convenient stores that are walkable and Laurie is so nice, sweet, very communicative and just awesome. I’d highly recommend this location to anyone visiting San Diego! I’ll for sure be back!

Great location - super gracious host and private casita with a great patio!

Cozy, Quiet and Private Backyard Studio Escape
I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Stephanie's place! The space was spotless and made me feel right at home. The location was fantastic and the check-in process was incredibly easy. Stephanie was an outstanding host, always quick to respond to any questions. I especially loved the rain shower! I highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone visiting San Diego and would definitely love to stay here again!

Casita with private yard and separate entrance
We had a great stay at Michael’s place! It was cozy and had everything we needed. Walkable to lots of North Park restaurants and coffee shops nearby. We also walked to the zoo (a little over 2 miles) and the ferry to Coronado (a little over 4 miles). Great central spot!

Heart of SD | Zoo Nearby | Private Patio | Central
This is a nice little private spot you can be at right by Balboa Park. Close to Downtown, and the host was great and very responsive. I believe the washer and dryer is a plus! One thing I loved is Hulu is set up on the TV so that was really nice!

New (2022) North Park Abode w/ Roof Deck
A fantastic location in North Park near Balboa Park with gorgeous views from the 2nd floor deck. It made for a gorgeous backdrop for graduation family photos! There are ample nearby restaurant choices for this safe and quiet neighborhood. Comes with a very comfortable bed, and a variety of pillows with an efficient kitchenette.. only wish the shower head streamed more water. Hosts were very gracious and responsive to our requests. I definitly plan to stay here again and have already recommended this awesome place to friends.

We are so grateful to have been able to stay at Gwynn's place, it is so peaceful and lovely. Like a secret garden getaway. We loved all the small touches, and beauty of the space. Gwynn made us feel very welcome and comfortable! The pool is amazing and the outdoor spaces are delightful. Can't wait to stay here again.

Clean Cozy Private Guesthouse - Central San Diego
This airbnb was very nice for two people. It was a perfect space with a spot on the driveway for one car. Walking in, the airbnb was clean and smelled really good. There was plenty of amenities and our host Frank was friendly and responsive. We would book again!

Fletcher Hills - modern 1 BR.Easy, no step access.
We had a fabulous time at the Granny Flat! Everything was pristine and Kristen has thought of every amenity. She was kind and responsive. We loved the peaceful backyard with gorgeous views. The location is super convenient and a max of 25-30 mins to anywhere else in the SD area. Our pups had a great time, too! Would love to stay here again!

Quaint Craftsman#2- Walkable, Parking, EV Charging
