This home is perfect for a family vacation. The front deck with fire pit was where we hung out in the evenings. Sunset is spectacular, right across the street. There were 11 of us from age 11 mos. - 70 and everyone had a comfortable bed. We would definitely stay at this home again.

Excellent stay!!
We were in Point Loma for a family wedding at The Thursday Club and this rental was perfect! Beautiful view and great location for seeing the sights in San Diego with good parking. Plenty of room for family members to have their own space and privacy and then come together to enjoy each others company - we give it 5 stars!

The best Sunset we have ever seen!
Beautiful home with a brilliant Sunset View! Could have not asked for a more clean, spacious, stylish home to stay with our family. Multiple bedrooms with individual bathrooms was great to have. We truly enjoyed the front porch fire pit sunsets. Magical. Walking distance from beach and our course the Cliffs. The home had everything we needed and then some. It made our trip from New York to San Diego one to remember!

Family stay for my daughters graduation
We were in San Diego for my daughter's graduation had an amazing stay at the Boat House. You are literally at Sunset Cliffs, so beautiful coastline, and lots of outdoor activities to enjoy. The home looked amazing in pictures and was even better in person. Super clean and really nice furnishings. My wife and I travel quite a lot and I can say this is one of the best places we've rented. We were only a party of 6, but the home would be extremely comfortable with twice that many people. Also, on the outside, the sofa, fireplace were great places to hang out for a morning coffee or an evening cocktail. Also, the management team were really responsive and accommodating as well. Will definitely be back!

Amazing location and views!
The Boathouse is exactly as described! Lots of room and fully furnished, the Boathouse is beautiful from top to bottom. Laundry room had detergent, bathrooms had extra TP and plenty of towels. The location is fantastic and close to many major sights and the views from the Cliffs are super. What a way to start the day! House is also walkable to the local downtown with cafes, restaurants and Rite Aid. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Absolutely no complaints!
