Our family loves to travel and host international guests. Our son lives in Boston; our daughter recently got married the summer of 2017 and lives just down the street from us.
Wes (host father) is a pastor at EastLake Church and chaplain of the Chula Vista and National City Police Departments. Aimee (host mom) has recently changed careers and is a Sugar Coach - teaching people to get off sugar. She works for 30 Days Sugar Free. Breakfast foods are provided, and when Aimee makes dinner, you will always be invited to join us. We have a backyard garden patio where we love to eat meals and relax. You will find our home quiet and peaceful, yet full of energy with friends and family who like to visit. We have a gym just 2 miles away that costs only $10 per month, plus a popular running path near our house.
We love touring our guests all over San Diego. We have kayaks and enjoy the ocean and San Diego Bay. We welcome you to stay with us. We really make you part of our family.

best Homestay ❤️

J'ai été accueillie comme une invitée faisant partie de la famille ! Chacun s'est occupé à rendre mon séjour formidable, en me donnant des conseils de visite, en m'invitant pour des sorties culturelles, sportives, familiales... Aimée a su rendre mon séjour unique par sa bonne humeur, son humour, sa patience (je parle peu l'anglais), sa gentillesse et sa grande générosité ! Aujourd'hui j'ai des nouveaux amis américains qui resteront dans mon cœur pour très longtemps...

Aimee and Wes are wonderful. They felt like my “family away from home.” I’m so grateful I was able to stay in their home. They really went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable. I miss them already!
Host reply
Aww...Kylie! We miss you too! What a joy and a delight you are to us. XOXO

This was the best experience of my life!!!! I am French 20years old and I stayed at their beautiful house during 3months. Aimee and Wes are just perfect, so kind, nice and funny. We have had so much fun together, they just took me everywhere with them, we visited the best places of San Diego. They were always doing their best to make you feel at home. This family is definitely the best one in this website! I will miss them and I will definitely come back !!

Our dear sweet Heloise, it was an honor having you become part of our family. We sure had a great summer together--hiking, beach days, shopping, kayaking, eating out, sun bathing, dance classes, gym days, Netflix binge watching--experiencing San Diego in a rich way! You will always be in our hearts. I'm confident we will see each other again. This is not good bye, but see you later! XOXO

I am so happy that I stayed with Aimee and I did it for 5 month. I studied at the SDSU and Aimees house is very close to the freeway, so thats not a problem. By the way - you will love Aimee she is the best baking queen! They are such a lovely family. They helped me for the weeks to find a place, where I could rent a car, they showed me San Diego and the special places. They made my stay awesome!
I would definitely do it again!

Aimee's house is the best homestay in San Diego. I stayed there only five days because I had a chemistry conference there, and it was enough to love! The Anderson's family helped me a lot in all aspects such as transport, interesting places to visit, to shop. I would love to come back and stay again in this homestay. Maybe next year with my husband and we will be only tourists!

I only stayed for a few nights - Great location, very close to freeway and mall. Room was tidy.
Wes and Aimee...what can I say, they're just wonderful couple. Highly recommended.
Oh and the free truffles?.....to die for.
