A terrace overlooking Balboa Park is a hard thing to leave, especially once the California evening sets in and the fire pit is lit. This San Diego apartment handles big groups with ease – six bedrooms, a concierge on hand for fridge stocking or private chefs, and a kitchen ready for serious cooking. Inside, hardwood floors and a fireplace give the living room a warmth that earns its keep on cooler nights. Balboa Park, the San Diego Zoo, Little Italy, and the Gaslamp Quarter are all within walking distance, so the city is on your doorstep.

Home truths

  • At full occupancy, you'll need to make use of three rollaway beds here. We think they're best suited to children.

  • You'll find free parking for two mid-sized vehicles in the driveway outside the building – note there's no access to the garage itself. Street parking is available nearby, but keep an eye on the posted signs.

  • If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair at no additional cost. You'll need to request them in advance.

  • It is worth noting that there are only three bathrooms to share between 15 guests at full occupancy.
