Definitely a fun/good time!…read more I joined my friends who hired SanDiego Sand Castles. We met their person (apologies, I've forgotten his name). We met our instructor at La Jolla Shores. He had all the equipment strapped to a hand truck with tires appropriate for sand. He was really skilled and was very chilll too. It was easy to ask questions and learn from him. In 2-hr we built a large castle with cool features. I'd recommend San Diego San Castles for a group outing. You'll need several people. This would be great for families, or entertaining out of town guests. There's some work involved so one of two people need to be stronger enough to carry water from the surf.

Time and money well spent!!! Our kids, ages 10 and 12 had a great time doing this, as did we!! We…read morewill definitely be rebooking in the future! Don't think twice, book it!

We went through several outfit and setting changes outdoors, and Diana captured some very funny and endearing moments.

What started as a simple site plan quickly turned into a full set of construction documents--and I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. After being quoted an outrageously high price by another designer, I was relieved to find Alexandra. Her prices are very reasonable, communication is clear and responsive, and the quality of her work is top-notch. In less than two months, I have a building permit in hand. I handled the permit processing myself, and Alexandra was incredibly patient and helpful throughout the process. I had a lot of questions since this was my first time pulling a building permit, and she answered them all with care. Highly recommend Miller Design and Drafting if you're looking for someone skilled, fair, and easy to work with.

I fried my MacBook (liquid damage) and was recommended to contact this place, after speaking to several places that didn't really assure me they can fix it.

So I immediately drove down and he explained process to me thoroughly, and gave me best and worst case scenarios. Tony was very knowledgeable, transparent and professional - he went above and beyond to resolve my issue and fix my MacBook to have it running even better than before. He literally saved me!
