Our stay at the casita was amazing! The casita was very clean and a very cute stay for a couple get away weekend. The kitchen came stocked with dishes to use, the bed was very comfortable, free street parking, safe area, and the hosts provided great recommendations for sight seeing in the area. 10/10 would stay again!

Excellent communication from Javier! Immaculately clean, nicely furnished casita. The dresser and closet in the bedroom are huge! The kitchen has full-sized appliances and plenty of room to cook if you need to! Towels and linens are excellent. I even checked out the towel brand I loved them so much! Loved walking the neighborhood, Friendly neighbors with cute dogs. A really impressive skateboard with park nearby. Great location close to airport, freeways, and many Asian and every other cuisine restaurants and markets.Very minor areas for improvement. There is parking on the street, but one night we had to park about a block away. (We got home late.) Some items typically provided were missing but they are not dealbreakers. These things did not deter from our enjoying our stay!

The host was communicative, welcoming, and friendly. If we needed something, Javier was quick to respond and get us what we needed. Amenities were well stocked. The casita was very cozy and comfortable. There was a nice cozy little area to enjoy out front of the casita as well. It was the perfect landing pad for our trip with great food spots close by. We were only 15 minutes from the majority of the activities we had planned.

Shopping was easily within 15 minutes. Traffic was more than we expected, but it was my first time driving the coast in California. San Diego and LA has some cra-zy drivers. Kitchen setup was minimal, but fine. Very kind hosts.

Casita Rustica

Casita Rústica is a quaint and charming place to stay. It is 10-15 minutes to Downtown San Diego and close to the beaches. The place is very modern and newly decorated. The hosts are amazing and extremely friendly making us feel right at home. Our visit was over a week and loved it so much we asked if there was any availability for our next visit.

California Beach trip

This was our annual Mission Beach trip and our first time using Vrbo, so we were not sure what to expect. We usually stay at Hotel Circle, but wanted to try something different. We enjoyed our experience and it exceeded our expectations! It is beautiful, clean and we loved it! The property is a little house behind the homeowner’s and is beautiful and was absolutely perfect for us! There was open communication at all times and if we had any questions, they were answered right away. It’s about 20 minutes from Mission Beach and Old Town San Diego, another of our favorite stops! We highly recommend staying here and want to thank Javier and family for making it special!
