Casa Paloma: Classic Mission Hills + Enchanting Courtyard Close to EVERYTHING

As walk through the front door of this gorgeous Spanish Revival home, you’ll be greeted with a warm and welcoming space combining classic comforts with modern amenities. The living room is an ideal place to relax and unwind with a good book or to enjoy an extensive cable lineup including all premium movie channels, Netflix and a DVR to record your favorite programs. Casa Paloma is also stocked with popular family board games (Taboo, Guesstures, Yahtzee, Pictionary, Sorry and Clue), and a racy & hilarious "adult" game of Cards Against Humanity. For those rare, chilly winter nights, there is a warming fireplace to complete the cozy setting. Our summer guests will appreciate the Central Air Conditioning ! Please Note: we updated the living room furnishings (blue sofa, teal arm chairs) the summer of 2019.

A newly renovated , well-appointed and fully stocked kitchen makes it a breeze to prepare a light snack at the breakfast bar, or to serve a full course holiday meal in the formal dining room set with handcrafted Luna Garcia pottery dinnerware.

The master suite boasts an over-sized walk-in closet, large soaking tub , separate shower, and a California king-size bed (72" W x 84" L). The home is a great choice for families -- the guest bedroom is furnished with a queen-size bed (60" W x 80" L) and adjoins the second bathroom. Casa Paloma comfortably sleeps 4 guests between the two bedrooms, a gorgeous Murphy bed with a queen Serta "Perfect Night" plush mattress in the living room can accommodate two additional guests. Please let us know if you require additional furniture for your baby or infant, we can provide a Graco crib, highchair and baby bath-insert for use in the big bathtub. The house also includes an inside laundry room and all of the kitchen, bed & bath amenities and supplies you would expect in your own home.

The jewel of Casa Paloma is the lush courtyard edged with palms and tropical plants that invites you to sit and savor your morning coffee, pause for a glimpse the hummingbirds, or simply enjoy San Diego’s great weather. In the evenings, unwind with a glass of wine outside on the comfortable couch with the lanterns aglow casting a romantic light off the soothing fountain.

The moment you enter the front gate, you’ll feel right at home in this private and serene oasis.

Location, Location, Location
One of the best features of Casa Paloma is its central location, close and convenient to everything San Diego has to offer. Casa Paloma is tucked into an historic of Mission Hills neighborhood – away from all the crowds, tourists, and congestion. Mission Hills is quiet and serene, and you can easily walk to a variety of local restaurants. Plus, Hillcrest, known for its shops, eclectic restaurants, and busting nightlife, is just a mile away.

Casa Paloma is an Oasis!
This charming house was immaculate, and has so much character! Everything needed was provided, and where it should be. The front and back courtyards are wonderful! The neighborhood is quiet, friendly, safe, and convenient to everything, while also being off the beaten path. The beds and other furniture are very comfortable, and though we didn't use the Murphy bed, we checked it out, and it was amazing. So many special touches throughout the house and gardens! The hosts were very accessible and responsive throughout our 6 night visit. Casa Paloma is everything you could ask for in a vacation rental.

Amazing week in San Diego!
We had a wonderful stay at Casa Paloma! We stayed for a week and had everything that you would need to feel right at home for a week. They have thought about everything, including leaving the local grocery store discount card which was quite beneficial. The location is great as we weren’t further than 20 mins from any major landmark. It was a very quiet no outlet street with street parking right outside your secured entryway. The private courtyard was quite peaceful! We would absolutely stay here again should we find ourselves back in San Diego!

Quiet hideaway
This lovely home fit us perfectly: Well-equipped kitchen, plenty of comfortable spots to relax, and a beautiful back yard. The location at the end of a cul de sac meant no traffic noise and easy parking. And we were close enough to dine, shop, and enjoy Hillcrest/San Diego when we wanted.

Another great stay at Casa Paloma
This is our second time at the property and we loved it again. The home is very charming and conveniently located. It really feels like the owner has thought through everything a guest might want during their stay. We had our infant and toddler with us this time and the house worked well for our family of 4.

Excellent Home with convenient location for all San Diego
The house was a perfect location in San Deigo. Everything we needed for a beach trip or zoo visit was accessible at the house. Our stay was relaxing and was great for quality family time. Everything was well organized and labeled for guests. We highly recommend Casa Paloma!

דירה מהממת, מושלמת למשפחות
הדירה מקסימה, מאובזרת להפליא, מתוחזקת ברמה גבוהה מאוד. היה לנו כל מה שהיינו צריכים - כלי מטבח , כלי רחצה, תבלינים ומצרכים בסיסיים, מכונת כביסה ועוד סייעו במהירות כשהיינו צריכים עזרה. העיצוב מהמם ומזמין. קיים ציוד תינוקות שעשינו בו שימוש. ממליצים מאוד למשפחות

Gorgeous home in an ideal neighborhood!
The home is absolutely stunning, both inside and out; as gorgeous as they are, the listing pictures couldn’t possibly do the property justice. The home’s interior is well-appointed, beautifully designed and decorated, and comfortable; the exterior is a dream—especially the large courtyard, where we enjoyed several meals. The location is ideal, with easy access to shopping, dining, Balboa Park, Coronado Island, La Jolla, and other attractions. Despite being convenient to everything the San Diego area has to offer, the neighborhood is peaceful and very safe. The only consistent noise was that of planes flying overhead, which our family really enjoyed (especially the kids). The owner lives nearby and respected our space while also going out of her way to make sure our stay was comfortable. We cannot wait to return to Casa Paloma! Thank you for making our vacation such a wonderful experience.

Great Stay
Stayed here with my family (adults and kids) and it was excellent! It had everything we needed and more. The owners are very kind. Place is even larger than it appears. Though this home is in front of the owners home, they make sure to give privacy. We would definitely stay again!
