Warm & Welcoming

This casita is lovely and the hosts have truly thought of everything. Towels and chairs for the beach. Wireless phone charger next to the bed. A binder with recommendations for local food and fun. Even a towel warmer within arm's reach of the shower. Check in and check out were so simple and easy. I highly recommend this host and we will be back next time we're in the area.

Lovely and serene

Our stay was restful. Nancy was responsive to my questions. The yard was like living in a private oasis. The Casita was clean, well supplied with so much. Beach towels, chairs, games, books, coffee... And a loaf of fresh bread :-)Would highly recommend this option when traveling in San Diego county...

Very Pleasant and Safe

I was traveling alone on this stay and needed a one night solution before meeting up with a friend for a short road trip. Nancy’s Casita was ideal. I felt perfectly safe and enjoyed a quiet evening reading a book. The unit was clean and well appointed, and the bed was very comfortable. I would book a return visit if ever staying in Vista again.

Special Birthday

Everything that you could ever need or think of it was there. Nancy was a very lovely host who made the absolute most amazing banana nut bread! (The recipe is there too which is a plus). Even though it was just a one night stay my boyfriend and I made the most out of it and we had such a good time! We swung on the bench outside at night and enjoyed the quiet and peacefulness. La Casita is definitely going to be a place I’m excited to go back to to explore more of the city! Nancy and Jim have some AMAZING food recommendations as we went to Swami’s for breakfast and it was phenomenal! Overall amazing trip and that wouldn’t have happened without it feeling so much like home!

Wonderful stay!

We came to visit the area for our anniversary and just wanted a quiet home base to explore the area from. Nancy was warm and kind and made us feel right at home when we arrived. The studio had everything we needed and you can tell that there’s a lot of love and care spent to make your stay comfortable and pleasant. We had a great time exploring the beaches, desert and mountains and Vista is such a cute town that we really never felt the need to go into San Diego. I was all very relaxing and we enjoyed our stay. We can’t recommend Casota high enough!

Perfect Getaway Location

This was out fourth time staying at the Chapman's Casita and as usual, the stay was perfect. Nancy and Jim are awesome hosts who make their home feel like yours. The backyard is an oasis, and the location is perfect whether you are going to the beach, the mountains, or the desert. Highly recommended.
