Family-friendly holiday rentals in La Mesa

We are so grateful to have been able to stay at Gwynn's place, it is so peaceful and lovely. Like a secret garden getaway. We loved all the small touches, and beauty of the space. Gwynn made us feel very welcome and comfortable! The pool is amazing and the outdoor spaces are delightful. Can't wait to stay here again.

I really enjoyed my time spent there. Not only the scenery was nice, but it was also quiet and peaceful. I also especially appreciated Jeffery’s hospitality and kindness and I would definitely recommend going back!

Great location and the house had everything we needed. beautiful home, nice decoration and really nice view from the jacuzzi.

The VIEWS!!! Absolutely breathtaking. We could’ve spent the entire trip just soaking in that ocean view—it was seriously next-level. From sunrise to sunset, it was pure magic. We absolutely loved Kate’s place and Kate herself! She was the best host we’ve ever had. The property was beautiful, peaceful, and had such a fun, quirky charm that made it feel like a hidden gem. The bed was insanely comfortable, the robes were perfectly cozy, and the coffee? Delicious. The art supplies and hot tub facing the ocean were truly to die for—I didn’t even want to leave to explore San Diego because I was so content right there. We slept with the back door open to hear the waves crash all night long and let the ocean breeze in. The neighborhood felt super safe and had such a great vibe. We already know we’ll be back to see Kate every year. No doubt about it.

Amazing stay and very well decorated unit with beautiful view. The place feels very cozy and homey and it has everything that you need. Will definitely stay there again

A truly unique place — we wish we could’ve stayed longer. What an amazing start to our California trip… the first night is already off to a roaring start!

We had such a great stay. The views were beautiful, it was very spacious and the host was very responsive. Would highly recommend staying here!

The place is way better in person than the pictures. Every amenity you can think of and even things you don’t think of are properly labeled and organized. It truly is a vacation spot and made us feel like we were in a 5 star resort. The views of the bay from Tijuana to downtown were spectacular. Eating meals and having drinks by the pool while watching the sunset are some of the best we’ve seen in San Diego. There is so much to do we didn’t want to leave the place. Patrick made us feel like family and welcomed us personally and walked us through his home. This touch was very well received. He was responsive and very friendly. The place is pristine and it’s obvious they have put lots of love into the place. I wish I could give it more stars than the 5 stars. We definitely will be back and look forward to visiting this place soon.

I really enjoyed staying here. It's on a canyon, which provided a great view and a nice breeze and was very quiet. We had our little dog with us and he loved being able to explore the yard. It's a great location in La Jolla / North PB. It's at the top of my list for my next trip to San Diego.

We loved our stay at Rachel’s place. The apartment is beautiful, light and spacious. A lovely central location in a sweet neighbourhood with lots of fab Italian restaurants on the doorstep. Important to note the parking is not onsite but was easy to find with clear instructions and only 5 mins walk from the apartment. We would come back if we visit San Diego again!

Charming Airbnb in a very quiet neighborhood. Great communication from the hosts and nice treats and a bottle of wine to welcome us. Street parking was a little tight, but we always found a convenient space nearby. Would definitely stay there again.

Anthony’s apartment was just what I needed for my adult son and me. 2 twin beds in the living room worked well as another bedroom without the cost of a 2 bedroom. The kitchen is small but had all we needed to make bfast in the mornings. Helpful to have a parking spot in back and washer dryer in unit. I really enjoyed the location next to an urban park, pretty neighborhood for walks, and short walk to restaurants and coffee shop. Anthony was super helpful when we arrived.

David is exactly what the reviews said about his responsiveness. My family and I can say this was our best experience ever in San Diego. We felt at home and this experience made it easy for my wife and I to conclude that when traveling with our young kids, we would be better off reserving an airbnb with a great host like David. Thank you once again for your hospitality, David.

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy little cottage! The space was thoughtfully stocked with common personal care and household items—perfect for those little things you might forget while traveling. We also really appreciated the extra touches like snacks and coffee, which made us feel right at home. One of the best parts was how accommodating the hosts were to our fur babies—it’s always a relief to find a truly pet-friendly spot. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and welcoming stay!

I had a great stay at this apartment in San Diego near the bay. The location was perfect — it was easy to get around both by car and on foot, with lots of places to explore nearby. The apartment itself was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The host was friendly, responsive, and made everything super smooth. I would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful Airbnb! The location was stunning, with ocean views and the soothing sound of the waves—it was the perfect place to relax after a day out. There were several great restaurants within walking distance, and we loved being able to grab snacks from the nearby Oxxo, just a short 5-minute walk away. The host was very accommodating, allowing us an early check-in, which we really appreciated. Security at the front was helpful and friendly—they assigned us a parking space and made it easy to find the building. We did experience a couple of minor issues: the shower wasn’t draining properly, and on the third day, the door wouldn't lock. The host responded quickly to our messages, but unfortunately, no one showed up after we waited about an hour. However, the issue was resolved while we were out, so everything was fine when we returned. Despite those small hiccups, we had a lovely time and would definitely consider staying here again. The view and loca

I was looking for a peaceful and comfortable place to relax and recharge and this fit perfectly. Anita and Brian are great hosts, friendly and helpful but still respected my privacy. The setting is also beautifully landscaped and the deck was great to have for relaxing and enjoying the water view. I can highly recommend.

Place was very nice and worked well for us. Definitely keeping in mind for future visits.

Great place if you are looking for a beach setting. Clean linens and towels, clean room. Kitchen has nice plates, glasses, utensils, etc.

If you're currently looking for a place to stay in the San Diego area and have kids, stop looking. This is the place to stay! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Carrie's property. Kids Paradise was ideal for our young ones, and thanks to Carrie’s thoughtful preparations, we had everything we needed for a comfortable experience. This made it possible for our children to have a wonderful vacation, while also allowing us parents to relax. I highly recommend this accommodation for families with children of all ages. We look forward to the possibility of staying at one of her other properties in the future.

The apartment is, well appointed, spacious & complete with everything you could want. The gardens are beyond beautiful, with lots of interesting trees and shrubbery and even a walking trail around the whole property. The pool is lovely and child safe. We felt very safe, there was an entry code for the front gate and another for our unit. The whole house is located in a beautiful, upscale area.

Kimberly‘s unit was a great option for a local event. It was spacious, convenient and very well priced. The kitchen was well appointed and there were excellent restaurants nearby. They were very responsive and checked in frequently during our stay. We would definitely recommend and rent this unit again.

We had a lovely time celebrating graduation and Father’s Day at Teresa‘s AirBnb! It was very spacious, had a full kitchen, and all the amenities we needed for the perfect visit. The location is perfect, with plenty of places to dine & shop! And Teresa was very quick in responding to messages! We can’t thank her enough for being the perfect host!!

The location is unbeatable, and the views are breathtaking. Mark was responsive and thoughtful throughout the whole booking process. Once we were checked in, he reached out to make sure we were all good and had what we needed. I would love to come back here. Thanks for having us, Mark!
