If I could give the property 4.5 stars, I would. Overall, this is a VERY impressive house and location. On the quiet, north side of Pacific Beach...you feel like you are right on the ocean. I would stay here again because of the location. Great restaurants and sights in walking distance.
Bluewater rentals was very prompt with communication and I could tell they were trying hard. We had issues with the hot tub. Even after fixing, it never seemed very "hot". The electronic shades on the entire top floor are not working and with the large windows, you can feel a bit exposed. Again, the rental company was aware of these issues and said they are trying to fix them.
To get to the bottom floor, you MUST use the elevator or take outdoor stairs. This ended up being fine by the end of the stay, but it took getting used to. And if we would have had a younger family using all three floors, it would have made it pretty inconvenient.
The kitchen is well stocked. There are not a lot of other "home" like things, though. Not really extra blankets, no games we could find, etc. Again, some people might like the "sanitized" house feel...but one of the things our family enjoys about most VRBO homes is the character that comes from how people choose to furnish the home.
There are parts of the home that are worn (e.g. shower fixtures that are semi-functional, well-loved furniture), but it didn't detract from the overall experience. Again, overall great stay. But for the cost, 4.5 stars.
