Welcome to Bamboo Loft, the perfect spot for large, fun groups! Just 10 blocks from Downtown, the Convention Center, and Balboa Park, this private house offers a unique "secret warehouse" vibe. Since 2016, we've hosted celebrities, Red Bull athletes, and corporate retreats. Now it's your turn to enjoy this special, socially immersive space designed for unforgettable experiences.

The space
Perfect for large groups wanting to be close to Gaslamp, Downtown San Diego, Little Italy, Coronado, Balboa Park, the beaches, SAN Airport, Costco, and more.

Experience top-notch technology with our 4K TV, wifi stereo, smartphone-controlled LED lights, and ultra-comfy bamboo mattresses.

Enjoy unique art throughout the house, making your stay feel like a live-in museum. We hope you love Bamboo Loft as much as you love exploring San Diego!

If you need extra space, consider our 9BR Bamboo Loft (a separate listing with an additional 3BR house just 10 feet away).

Guest access
Guests can enjoy all the amenities at the 6BR Loft, including a patio with a BBQ grill and a gated parking space accessible from the rear alley. Additional street parking is available on 26th or Imperial—just be mindful of street cleaning on Tuesday and Thursday mornings.

Please note that the property can only be accessed from the alley. While the neighborhood is vibrant, it might not be ideal for families with small children or seniors. Feel free to reach out with any questions to make sure it’s the perfect fit for your group before booking.

Other things to note
Our neighborhood is mostly commercial with a few residential houses. The people you’ll see around are often local business owners and friendly neighbors. Although the area might look a bit gritty at first, it’s a vibrant urban spot, as noted in our reviews.

For parties and events, please note that GoodLifeResorts does not accept them through Airbnb. The maximum guest count on Airbnb is 16. For larger groups or events, please reach out via other platforms.

Feel free to ask any questions before booking so we can help you find the perfect rental for your group. This property isn’t ideal for families with young children or all-girls groups. We recommend walking in groups of 3+ at night for safety.

Detailed check-in info will be provided once you book. A security deposit will be authorized by Airbnb (not charged) and fully refunded if there’s no damage or missing items.

For late check-outs, GoodLifeResorts may charge up to $200/hour if you haven’t received prior approval from the property manager. After 2 hours, charges may equal a full night’s stay. We need to prepare for new guests, so please adhere to check-out times.
