Apartment was clean, comfortable in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of places outside to walk. Beautiful gardens on property and easy access via car to restaurants stores etc. Susan was a very gracious host. Highly recommend!
Susan was very friendly & sharing. The guest apt. was relaxing with a beautiful view of her lovely garden. The sent of orange blossoms filled the air. My stay was enjoyable and relaxing! I will definitely stay there again. Thank you Susan.
This place is beautiful, clean, quiet, and had everything you would need while you are there. The bed was comfortable, the towels were nice, and the unit is very spacious. We loved meeting Susan and her husband and having her there if we needed anything. We are definetly going back for another weekend getaway soon!
This was such a quaint and peaceful place to stay. It was so quiet, too. The neighborhood was beautiful and a great place to take a walk if you wanted. It felt like we were far removed from the busyness of the city, but it was actually only minutes to everything.Susan was so welcoming and kind. The place was in immaculate condition. It was so comfortable and we had a great stay. We will definitely be booking again.
The host was warm and welcoming. The retreat was cozy and charming. It comes with every accommodation you could need. It was surrounded by lush trees and we sat outside enjoying the beautiful evening air. We will definitely visit again. It was such a relaxing stay.
Beautiful property that is eye appealing and a wonderful room that has all the amenities. Greatly appreciate the hospitality and look forward to returning again. Many thanks Susan!
Susan's guest house is a wonderful place for a couple to stay. High ceilings enhance the spacious one bedroom unit and furnishings are delightful and comfortable. She provided oranges from her trees for fresh orange juice in the morning. Thank you!
Beautiful part of Vista. Beautiful garden and clean apartment. Unfortunately there was a problem with ants around every day. The hosts were trying to control the problem, but it was concerning.
Overall, we had a pleasant stay at this property. We found the hosts to be gracious, kind, and very responsive. The hosts were so kind to direct us in since we were arriving well after dark. The property was quiet and secluded. We felt safe at the location and the private drive was convenient for the apartment. The apartment was spacious for a one bedroom and the large bathroom gave us both plenty of room to get ready. The bed was comfortable as advertised. We slept well the entire time.
The downside of our stay was minimal. The furnishings seemed a bit outdated but clean and functional. There wasn’t a lot of drawer space in the bedroom for a lengthy stay, but plenty of space to hang clothes. We did have an ant infestation midway through our stay. The hosts did their best to mitigate the issue but it did linger throughout the remainder of our stay. I think the torrential rains had something to do with the ants moving inside.
Overall, it was a nice stay and will return!
We had a wonderful time at a beautiful property. The apartment had everything we needed for our stay including fans, a comfortable king size bed and pillows. Gorgeous shrubs, trees and flowers surround this property. Easy parking, check in and very helpful hosts!
This cottage is beautiful, comfortable and close to dining, shopping and to the Marine Base. Susan is gracious and made us feel welcome. And we plan on coming back soon.
We enjoyed our week-long stay. Comfortable and quiet accommodations. Enjoyed the fresh oranges. Would have enjoyed a sitting area outside with view of garden.
The apartment was private. It was very clean and comfortable. My husband and I enjoyed our short stay very much. We even got to experience what a great orange just picked from the tree tasted like. Susan was very nice and we really enjoyed meeting her. If I could give ten stars instead of five, I would.
If you're looking for peace and quiet in a neighborhood that you can sleep in with the windows open, look no further. Lovely, communicative host, quaint apartment. The fresh oranges? Divine. Thank you so much Susan!

This private 1-bedroom suite with kitchen was like a home away from home. Extremely quiet and safe - we slept with the windows open and it was seriously our best sleep in a long time! Close to local restaurants and grocery stores, and a short and easy 20-minute drive to Carlsbad and the beach. The host, Susan, was welcoming and at the same time did not intrude. Gorgeous property and neighborhood. Quiet and laid-back!!
