We canât say enough about this awesome place and its owners. Communication was top notch and it was just as described! Immaculate, quiet neighborhood, comfortable beds, and close to everything we wanted to see and do! We had the perfect amount of space for my family of 6 and being steps away from the pool was so much fun!!! 🥰Thank you!!! 🥰
This was our 3rd stay here. There is a reason because it's a perfect place for us to stay and visit our family members who live close by. The pool and the beautiful backyard are awesome. Property is convenient for shopping, dining out and traveling into the city. We will be back again.
Our second stay at this location. Very convenient location for us to visit with our family. Easy to find shopping and a short drive to all the local attractions. Had a day at the Zoo with our granddaughter. Thak you Celeste and Mark for sharing your lovely home with us.
Checkin went Smooth and warm welcome from the on Property Owners.Pool - WARNING -IT IS NOT HEATED as Marketed, and we were told it hasnât worked for at least the last year or more.We were told that we could pay 50 per day to heat the SPA, and then later told that HEATER was also BROKE. Pool Area - when we arrived there were some pool items out, but nothing too outrageous. What was a bit disappointing were all the spider webs and dirt⊠meaning there were leaves âdirtâ on the furniture. You could tell no one had done anything to prepare/clean the back yard for our arrival. Living Quarters - Everything looked just fine when we arrived. Noticed throughout the stay that the owners were having a significant issue with ants in the kitchen and spare bedroom. If anything were left overnight in the sink, let alone in the counter, there would be hundreds of ants all over. Also, there were a couple ants who decide to sneak into bed with us throughout the stay⊠Also one of the spare beds was broke and slanted to one side. Probably the worst part of the situation is that the owners, instead of accepting and trying to own the fact that the pool wasnât being heated and that they had not marketed it properly, tried to argue that it was warm enough (84 degrees) during the day. (Note: We were not sitting at the pool during the day, and paid to be able to enjoy it in the early morning and late evenings after we were done sightseeing. It was 76-78 at that time.)
What a fun home away from home! Located in a good location. It was very easy getting to and from property. Casita was clean very homey. The pool and gorgeous outdoor area was an added bonus! We would totally stay here again!
Our mini family reunion in San Diego was wonderful and staying at the Casita was fun due to the gorgeous backyard with a heated swimming pool. We were grateful to have a gas grill for our nightly barbecues and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to make all your meals. The neighborhood is beautiful and near tennis courts, Costco, and close to the freeway. The hosts were welcoming and kind. The bed in the master bedroom was also very comfy. Thank you so much!
We loved coming back to this casita after a hard day of sightseeing and lying on San Diego beaches. We took a couple of days to just hang out by the pool, relax and cook out. We loved having space for our family and laundry. The location is handy, safe and beautiful.
Thank you so much for opening your home to us, we had such a great time. What a beautiful place you have. We really enjoyed your pool and all the movies!
Everything you need in the house.
A warm welcome from Celeste.
Lots of amenities within a 5 minute drive.
Weather wasnât brilliant during our stay so the pool was a little cool for us.
The property was all that needed for our visit with our son and his new bride who live in Chula Vista. We enjoyed using the pool and the location was perfect for our visit. Close enough to go to Coronado Beach for the afternoon and a wine tasting trip to Temecula on another day. We would definitely try to stay here again when we come back to San Diego area.
The casita was perfect for our family. Pool was beautiful and outdoor surroundings were perfect. Private laundry was very helpful . Everything was close with shopping center only few miles. House very clean, comfortable and well equipped. Would recommend highly to everyone,

We were in town with our kids (age 11 & 8) for a week. The property is very nice, the weather didn't cooperate much so we didn't get to use the pool but it's a very nice setup. There is off street parking and it's a nice neighborhood not far from all the tourist attractions (Beaches, SeaWorld, Zoo etc). We definitely would stay here again.
Mark and Celeste's casita is a great home away from home! The private backyard is like a little oasis with the pool and the palm trees. I stayed here for 6 nights and it was quiet and relaxing. Close proximity to downtown and the beach. Mark and Celeste make visitors feel at home. Daisy the Cat is friendly too! :-) Would definitely stay here again next trip to SD!

We were so happy with our stay! Everything that is described in the listing is 100% accurate. The house is very clean and the property is well maintained. It feels like you are on a tropical getaway.
The location is perfect, most of the tourist activities including the beaches were within a 15 minute drive.
Celeste was a perfect host, she offered wonderful recommendations regarding dining.
If we are ever back in San Diego this would be the place we would stay!
We absolutely loved our time at the casita! It was perfect for our needs. Convenient location, excellent amenities, and we had everything we needed. Celeste was fantastic to work with. We loved all the outdoor space, which allowed our kids room to run and explore. If we ever come back to the area, we would definitely book again. Thanks!!
As a family of 4, we were more than pleased with our stay. Not only were we comfortable, we enjoyed the beautiful scenery surrounding the casita. This location is perfect to come back to relax after spending a busy day touring San Diego. The host Celeste was very gracious in providing pantry supplies and a few staples for the fridge. Couldnât have asked for a better place to stay and accommodating host.
We've stayed in holiday homes all over Europe and the USA but cannot recall one as well appointed as the Casita. Plenty of space for our family of four (children aged 18 and 15) and the pool and grounds were beautiful. Its location allowed us to visit everywhere we wanted to in the San Diego region but we were always drawn back to the incredible pool to take advantage of the perfect climate that the area enjoys. Celeste was incredibly helpful before and during our stay and we cannot recommend the Casita highly enough. We definitely plan to return in the future.
We had an amazing stay here in Chula Vista, it was a perfect location for seeing all that San Diego has to offer. While staying here we visited San Diego Zoo, San Diego Safari Park, Sea World, USS Midway, The Childrenâs Museum, Sesame Place Water Park, saw the seals and sea lions at La Jolla and did a whale watching cruise. All were a good driveable distance from this Casita. We loved coming âhomeâ to it at the end of every day. The children loved the pool and the ping pong. All in all, we had a fabulous stay and we were very sad to leave. Celeste and Mark were great hosts and provided useful local knowledge to supplement the research we had done ahead of our stay.
I was born in Johannesburg, South Africa and lived there until I was 9 years old. In 1979 our family moved to Vancouver, Canada. I lived there until I was 22 and then went to Chiropractic College in San Jose, California. My husband and I moved to San Diego in 1995 and have lived here ever since.
My husband and I fell in love with this property. It is on a quiet cul-de-sac in an upscale neighborhood. We have a 1/2 acre property with beautiful gardens and a large solar heated pool. We enjoy swimming May-November.
This little slice of paradise is a relaxing place to hang out. Whether you are enjoying the pool or laying in the hammock you are sure to love listening to the birds and enjoy the joys that San Diego has to offer!
