Casa Marlow by AvantStay | Stone Casita + Private Entrance + Full Kitchen | 15 Min to Coronado + Gaslamp

Casa Marlow gives a San Diego stay a comfortable place to land without pulling you too far from the city. The two-level casita sits behind an occupied main house in a southeast San Diego neighborhood, with its own separate entrance so you can come and go on your own schedule. A warm stone exterior, an updated interior, and a flexible layout make it a good fit for couples, small families, or a few friends traveling together, with room for up to six. Inside, the living room centers on a queen sleeper sofa and a TV, the natural spot to regroup between beach days, dinners out, and time in the city. Just beyond, the full kitchen has stainless steel appliances, including a refrigerator, stove, oven, and microwave, along with rich wood cabinetry, generous prep space, and bar seating for breakfast or a casual meal. Cookware and dinnerware are ready to go, so a quick morning before heading out or a grocery-run dinner on the way back are both easy. The layout keeps everything connected without feeling crowded, from coffee at the counter to a movie on the sofa. On the first floor, the primary bedroom has a king bed, a TV, a ceiling fan, and an ensuite bathroom with a bathtub. Upstairs, the loft bedroom has a queen bed and its own TV, and the sleeper sofa adds space for two more. One layout note to plan around: the home's only bathroom is reached through the primary bedroom, so anyone sleeping in the loft or on the sofa will pass through that room to use it. Outside, the stone facade and courtyard-style entry give the casita a bit of extra character, and on-site driveway parking keeps your car right at the property. WiFi is included throughout the stay. The casita sits along a main road rather than a secluded street, so expect some traffic noise. The location keeps San Diego easy without committing you to one part of the city. Most of the favorites are a 15 to 20 minute drive: museums and gardens at Balboa Park or a day at the San Diego Zoo in the morning, lunch in the Gaslamp Quarter, a game or concert at Petco Park, then over the bridge to Coronado or on to Mission Beach and the boardwalk when the coast is calling. With city sights, beaches, dining, and entertainment all within reach, Casa Marlow is a practical, comfortable home base between full San Diego days provides a personalized hospitality experience to elevate your stay. With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more. For anything you need, we’re at your fingertips. Deemed “America's Finest City,” San Diego lives up to its nickname.
