Hiiden gem in sunny San Diego for cororate offsites!
Hiiden gem in sunny San Diego for cororate offsites!
This place is like a hidden gem in San Diego. Away from the craziness and traffic of downtown, yet I can be anywhere from La Jolla to Downtown, to the biotech distract in 20 to 30 min because 3 of the major freeways are 4 min away. Our team even got a chance to hit the beach for a sunset walk after a tough meeting. It was only 30 min away. I was blown away that both the water and air were in the 70's at the end of Oct, you do not see that at our HQ in San Francisco. The huge living room was perfect for company meetings and we didn't even use one of the 3 bedrooms. The speed of the Wi-Fi made doing business easy! We will be back for our next off-site in beautiful Sunny San Diego! Sandy Smith, COO

Get away to the mountains but stay close to San Diego central
Get away to the mountains but stay close to San Diego central
Stayed here with my extended family. 7 of us enjoyed an extended stay in this wonderful house. Huge living room, dining area, and patio that overlooks the local private airfield. BBQed and drank daquis into the night while watching the WWII restored airplanes doing a mini flight show for us. Mega comfy living room leather couch that opens up to an L-shaped queen-sized sleeper for 2-3 kids. Lots of bathrooms so we could all get ready comfortably. Beds were huge and very and comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed. Loved the back patio area. there is a huge trail system in the back and amazing hiking a 10 min walk away from the house. Quiet, relaxed neighborhood. So much outdoor toys and fun for the kids. Glad we found this great home (away from home). The West Family - NYC, NY

Our group had a wonderful stay at what the call "Gillespie House". The name comes from Gillespie Field, a private little airport in the eastern suburbs of San Diego. We had a great time watching the restored WWII aircraft land on the runaway. it is just close enough to see them, but far enough not to hear them. The house was big (3 bed, 2 bath) and man what a kitchen. Perfect for our family and our friend's family. With a table for 8 in the liniing room and on the patio table, we were able to all fit. The kitchen was big enough for both families to cook and we loved the 4 burner BBQ. Best was that is was only a 30-min drive to the La Jolla Shores, and all the other beaches. We had a great stay.

Up on a hill so it’s very secluded and offers tons of privacy and room
Up on a hill so it’s very secluded and offers tons of privacy and room
My friends and I stayed at the Gillespie House recently and were truly pleased. Not sure why it was named that way, we asked the host and were told about the airport nearby. It was fun to watch the old WWII planes landing. Anyway, it’s neat that they incorporated the name. There are 3 bedrooms, each named after a different color and it’s cool because the linens are all color-coordinated as well. Perfect for knowing what belongs where. The scenery outside is simply breathtaking and there is a grill outside on the patio. We cooked outside and because the kitchen has all the essentials we only had to worry about buying our food, not tons of spices, etc. The house is up on a hill so it’s very secluded and offers tons of privacy. There’s even dedicated parking for the unit on the driveway. Because of the hill, you get a 360 of San Diego. Hosts were gracious and amicable.
