Our stay in Bonita was truly delightful. The casita was clean and well equipped with plush linens and towels, including all amenities mentioned in the description. What wasnt mentioned were the exceptional touches like plants and handpicked flowers. Fruits from their garden and fresh eggs straight from the the henhouse where also in the fridge for our arrival! We were so pleased to be in a safe and gated home inside 2 acres of serenity with mature landscaping, a lovely pool and the sweetest dogs to welcome us.

Exceptional environment and hospitality services

A hidden gem of tranquility in an urban setting. Jenny and her entire family were very accommodating and welcoming, not to mention generous with access to additional amenities. Worth every penny and perfectly located to my family’s location. Would recommend for a couple or family of 3 comfortably with air mattress they would provide. I will book again if available on my next visit. Thank you to the Sanchez family for an exceptional experience.

Perfect retreat in San Diego area

The casita was perfect for our stay. Nice pool, lovely grounds, fresh eggs and lemons and limes. A fresh lime off the tree for my Modelo was wonderful. Both human and canine hosts were lovely. Bonita is also a nice area with a canyon chic vibe

1st Vrbo experience

Property was exactly as stated, more so in my opinion. The grounds are nicely manicured, pool and jacuzzi clean and just a few feet away from the casita. Jennifer was super welcoming and available when needed. The casita itself was as described, perfect for my daughter and I. In and out privileges with gate code. Easy access to highway and shopping. Felt safe and secure. Peaceful and serene. Would definitely stay again!

A lovely 'oasis' to stay and very close to our planned activities. We enjoyed relaxing in the adirondeck chairs under the mature palm trees. A comfortable, well equipped cabin. Hosts were welcoming and gave us good tips on local hikes. A hidden gem.

A Perfect Place

We had a perfect place: security, privacy, cleanliness, and peaceful place to stay while visiting our son and his family. The weather was too cool to use the pool, but it was beautiful. The host (very accommodating) and her family were very nice. The room was perfect with all the amenities to keep us comfortable. The location is perfect with relatively short drives to see anything around the San Deigo area. Simply the best.

A beautiful haven

This property is located on 2.5 meticulously maintained grounds. While being in the middle of a metro area your sense is that you are in the country. Great location for any and all amenities. We hit a bad weather week and ended up more house-bound than we like but the Hosts are so friendly and helpful we were very relaxed and well taken care of.

Amazing property and hosts

Jenn and family were amazing. The property is gorgeous and Jenn was so kind and helpful. Things went a bit sideways, completely out of Jenn's control, and she took care of us every step of the way, going above and beyond. We weren't planning another San Diego trip, but we want to come back and stay with them again, so we'll be back! Appreciate your beautiful home and family. Thank you.
