Amazing Property
The house was amazing. From the views, amenities, cleanliness and accessibility. We were traveling with elderly grandparents and the 1st floor apartment was perfect. The second floor was a great space and we were pleasantly surprised to find a dart board and foosball table. The house was fully stocked with kitchen appliances, cookware and dishes. The pantry was stocked with a wide variety of spices and other essentials. We also appreciated the welcome snacks, San Pelligrino and bottle of sparkling wine to welcome us. Highly recommend this property and would gladly stay there again if we come back to San Diego.

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!
The best bit about this property is its location and incredible views. We sat and watched the harbor for hours. We ubered everywhere and found great restaurants nearby. Reading others reviews I think we just had a rough deal with our time there. The patio was not put together, the Sun shade was frayed through and on the floor. The explanation was that it had been windy. Maybe the property manager, knowing that should have swung by to check on everything before we got there. The hot tub was not clean, there was a layer of dust on the kitchen island and one of the doors hinges was broken so that it did not close properly allowing quite a bit of air traffic noise in. For the price and being marketed as a “luxury” rental we just expected something a little more high end. Maybe a shade/screen by the hot tub to screen from the neighbors would be good.

This property was a huge hit with all four of our adult children and ourselves. GREAT location. GREAT view. Everyone had their own room and declared the beds super comfy. I appreciated the master bedroom jetted tub after walking all day. A quick Uber to everywhere because the location was so ideal. Highly recommend this property.

Rental with an Airport View
I don’t remember the Urban Airport location being mentioned but it would be good to know about in advance. I still give the property 5 stars because it is a great house, very well equipped and very well managed! While watching the planes take off and land provided endless entertainment it can be quite loud at around 6:15 AM when flights get going!

Amazing location and views
My family wanted to hit the Zoo and Sea World and this house was in the perfect location for what we wanted to do. In addition to those attractions, you're also so close to so many great food options. I loved the views overlooking the airport and the water. Great sunsets and views in the evening. Since you're right by the airport you do get aircraft noise outside and we slept w/ white noise. If / when I am back in SD, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

This place was ideal for our group. Having 2 condos connected allowed people to have their own private time. The view from the deck is beautiful and we enjoyed hanging out there. The place was also walking distance to little Italy which had a farmers market on Saturday. Each room had an AC unit and the rooms were spacious and beds comfortable. We will definitely be back.

This house is very lovely. The house is beautiful and a lot of space. We had 11 girls staying at the house and we had enough room for all of us. The house looked exactly like the pictures. The balcony views was breathtaking. The location was excellent. Everything was about 10 mins drive or less and Little Italy was within walking distance. Dana and Daniel, the house managers were very responsive. They took care of anything that we needed. We will definitely rent this house again.

Fabulous!
This home was beautiful and accommodating for our group of seven women. It was an easy walk to Little Italy (but a serious uphill climb on the return). It is close to the airport so there is loud noise outside while using the deck or hot tub, but inside is not a problem. The owner was very responsive to the issues we needed help with. Highly recommended.

Nice place, beautiful view
We came to San Diego for a company retreat and used this house both for some of the people to sleep in, and also for 3 days of meetings (17 people). The house worked well for both purposes. There are two levels which was nice because people could spread out a bit. The deck was a wonderful place to take breaks and eat lunch, at least when it was sunny. And the kitchen was ample and well provisioned with equipment. The main downside of this house is that it is very close to the airport, which means a lot of noise from planes taking off and landing. It's not a big deal if you have the windows closed. But if they are open, it's very noticeable.

Very comfortable home, well appointed and maintained.
We leased both units for a Thanksgiving holiday with 11 people in town. Both kitchens were really handy to have. The close proximity to the airport was a little bit unexpected, but after the first day we didn't really notice the noise much. It was fun watching the airplanes arrrive & depart from the balcony. The view of the bay was beautiful! There is no yard for kids to play in, but the house was big enough that everyone had plenty of room to spread out. We didn't spend much time during the day at the house. There was so much to do and we were very centrally located. I would recommend this house and I also really liked the direct communications with the owners through HomeAway. 🙂
