    ABOUT THIS HOME
    Are you ready to enjoy luxury city living at its best?

    This newly remodeled home in the upscale Mission Hills area has stunning 270 degree views of the city and San Diego Bay and Coronado Island from its floor-to-ceiling windows in the kitchen, dining room and master suite. It was recently featured on the Travel Channel's storey on leading holiday rentals in San Diego!

    No expense was spared with the high-end upgrades throughout the property, and when you first see the view, we bet you'll have just one word…… “WOW!”

    Located on a peaceful street in a great area, yet just 5 minutes to the heart of city centre and all the action, you couldn't stay in a more ideal location. You can walk to many of San Diego's top attractions, and drive to the rest in just 10-15 minutes!

    To give you some added piece of mind, we want to let you know we have always had very high standards for cleaning and were already taking many of the precautions currently being recommended prior to COVID, including, but not limited to:

    - We have a “clean linen” policy and all bedding is washed with very hot water between each guest and dried at high temperatures

    - Dishes are washed in a dishwasher

Location was super good for us and everything that we wanted to do. House had everything that we needed for our group of 6. We chose the house over staying in a hotel so that all of our group could be together in the evenings but then allow everybody to get up in the mornings at their leisure and then do whatever their each normal breakfast routine was. Kitchen was well stocked with everything that was needed for breakfast prep. The airport runway view was extremely unique and was so interesting for everybody to watch. The planes seemed so close but with the doors and windows closed you could not hear any of the airport sounds. Even out on the patio the airport noise was not as loud as you would think. Communication with host was all good.

Fantastic place!

We had an amazing time with our family staying at this home. We cooked Easter dinner and several other meals and had everything we needed. The view is spectacular and we enjoyed watching the planes and boats coming and going. We found the house to be very clean and outfitted with everything we could possibly need. We would love to stay again in the future.

Luxury Hilltop Retreat is by far one of our favorite properties that we have ever stayed at. We absolutely loved all of the amenities, and the comfort and cleanliness of the home was exceptional. The views are spectacular, we loved sitting on the balcony and watching the aircraft carriers coming into port. Everything is within a 10 minute drive or less, wonderful restaurants along Harbor drive and the weather was perfect. Little Italy, USS Midway and Old Town are great places to visit. We would definitely love to stay here again, a wonderful home.

Perfect property

Booked this property for a 30th birthday get together and it was perfect. Check in was super easy. Place was clean and very spacious. Walking distance to little Italy which we did almost twice a day! Could have asked for more. It is close to the airport but with the windows and doors shut you can’t hear it. If you are an aviation geek like myself it’s THE best view to watch the planes landing and taking off! If I could add one thing it would be some way to listen to music, but other than that a perfect stay with plenty of room! Thank you! Will be back!

Had an amazing stay and the view was mesmerizing. The place was immaculate and quite comfortable. The parking driveway was too much of a downward slope for our vehicle but there was ample street parking. That small thing pales in comparison to the great experience we had. In addition, Daniel, the host, was very responsive and attentive. He also extended the olive branch when we inadvertently left our keys by mailing them out to us at no extra cost. Would definitely stay there again and recommend!

OVER THE TOP!

Over the top, not only in the view but all the amenities. Never have we had such a rental, stocked with wonderful products, in the kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms. We enjoyed the cleanliness and everything is like new! They didn't forget anything! Our favorites: the view, all the games provided- even a dart board and foosball table, and cleaning supplies and spices and ziplocks, sound machines in the bedrooms complete with ocean sound setting, AND covered garage parking- OH MY! The location was so close to all the things top on our to do list! I truly cannot express enough the beauty of this home. The price was also so reasonable compared to other choices we looked at. We will be planning our next trip to San Diego based on the availability of this wonderful home.
