The fully equipped kitchen makes whipping up your favorite meals a breeze. There is a breakfast nook with seating for 6, and a door leading directly to the outdoor courtyard dining and entertaining.

The fully walled and gated courtyard makes the perfect place for relaxing and enjoying San Diego’s world-famous climate. You and your guests will enjoy this well-designed and welcoming outdoor space complete with mature shade trees, Saltillo tiles, a walk-up bar with stools, a chiminea-style fireplace, and a group outdoor dining table under an open-beamed covered patio. Mature tropical trees and splashes of colorful Mexican tiles complete the space and add to the feel of this special retreat. After a full day of sightseeing and activities, there is nothing like sipping a cold drink and soaking in the bubbling hot tub while sharing stories of the day’s adventures.

There are 3 sleeping rooms, each fitted with hotel-style linens and comfortable beds. The primary suite features a king bed and an en-suite bathroom with a jetted tub and shower. French doors open to the interior courtyard and bring light into the space.

Each room is equipped with Streaming TV's and Cable services in the Master Bedroom.

Love the location!

by Travis M
Access to old town was wonderful to walk to. The trolley is just a short walk or basically a 15 minute drive to anything else we wanted to see perfect!

A wonderful stay!

by Sheryl S
A beautiful home in a good convenient location of SD - especially for first-time visitors. Within walking distance of the Old Town transit station. Our group of 5 particularly loved the outdoor space. Bluewater’s communication was prompt & good and they quickly addressed the few minor issues we noticed upon check-in.

Plenty of Space, Great Location, Comfortable!

by Catherine Behret
This place was great for our group! Plenty of space and comfortable. In a great location and easy to follow instructions. We didn’t have an extra roll of toilet paper, but the team was super responsive and brought us extra rolls.
