Guesthouse in La Mesa
Da Hui Hut-Beachy home/La Mesa’s best view and spa
Da Hui Hut is a very private oasis uniquely situated at the top of San Diego county's magnificent Mt. Helix. At roughly 1,300 feet above sea level, Mt. Helix is the crown jewel of natural landmarks in the area. The landscape provides bountiful views, and the large deck is positioned perfectly to see it all. It feels like you're on top of the city! Inside, guests will encounter Californian and Hawaiian inspired decor as they collide with wooden walls to compose a symphony of color and good vibes.
