“I worked with Amy when I bought my condo in 2011. It was my frst purchase, and a short sale at that! It was a long and complicated process, but she was an absolute rock star the whole time. Answered every little question I had, and got me such a great deal on my condo. I am so grateful for Amy, and would highly recommend her for any and all of your real estate needs!”Joanie B.
“Amy O’Dorisio and her team nailed it again. She helped us sell our house in under a month (cash ofer) for more than we asked. This was a bit of a tall order considering what we gave her to work with (short timeline, pets in the house, logistical challenges...). It didn’t matter. Her experience guided us to a quick and painless close of escrow. Amy is always available, always professional, super knowledgeable, not to mention a wonderful person. This is the third time we’ve worked with Amy over the years. It almost seems like each time gets better, though I don’t know how... She was perfect in each transaction. I strongly urge anyone looking to buy or sell in the San Diego area to contact Amy O (amyosandiego.com). She is the real deal.”
- Mike M.
“When my wife Ginger and I decided to look into buying our frst home, I called a trusted old friend, and volleyball partner named Chris Magill (owner of Aztec Property Inspections) who is one of San Diego’s top home inspectors. I asked Chris for a recommendation of a good Realtor, and he sent me to Amy. Having no idea what we were in for, we started the search for our frst home. In the interest of time I will give you the condensed version of our experience …. For two months, with Amy’s guidance, and support, we searched tirelessly for what would eventually be our new home. Amy went to bat for us right away, trying to separate us from the group of 16 who put ofers in on this short sale house in the three days it was on the market. Fast forward 7 more months. After countless roadblocks, pitfalls, the inevitable delays they caused, and the stress that accompanied them, we fnally got the word that we would soon be able to make this house our home! Each time this deal almost fell through, Amy was there to save it. From the unique way she presented our ofer in the beginning, to the letters she wrote to the banks on our behalf in the 11th hour, Amy always found a way to succeed where others, I am convinced, would have failed. Having someone who genuinely cares about our lives help us through this trying time was a blessing. Amy O’Dorisio is not only one of San Diego’s most respected Realtors, but through this process has become a truly valued friend.” - Jef C.
“Buying a house with Amy was such a pleasure. Helping us choose the right neighborhood, navigate the lending juggernaut, the title process, tax issues, and closing, she was always ready and available to take a phone call or email with our many questions. I liked her Docu-Sign software enabling us to do the paperwork over the Internet. Especially, though, we enjoyed knowing her, and having a cheerful and knowledgeable person with us during our search and closing. Many thanks.” - Ed C.
“I dreaded the thought of fnding a real estate agent & my fears were confrmed based on my initial conversations with many of them. However, when I met Amy there was no pretension. I felt that we communicated in a very open & afective manner which helped her know what I was looking for & ultimately it helped her work her magic to fnd my dream home.” - Brent S.
“Amy is extremely professional, yet down to earth and very easy to communicate with. She has a vast knonwledge of the real estate market and readily shares any tidbit of information that may be useful to either buyers or sellers. She whole-heatedly loves what she does and it is apparent that she wants you to get the best home/price you deserve.” - Laurin W.

Your search for the ultimate country estate will end at this luxurious residence in Olivenhain, where expansive grounds and equally impressive interior living spaces provide an unparalleled environment for preferred living. A gorgeous corner homesite on 2 acres enhances privacy and beauty, with meandering trails and mature landscaping joining a resort-caliber pool and spa.
Entertain impressively at the built-in poolside BBQ bar, relax by the stunning custom fireplace, or socialize on the spacious loggia. Extending approximately 3,538 square feet over one sprawling level, the 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence easily caters to both
daily living and unforgettable entertaining. A large island anchors the kitchen and complements handsome wood cabinetry with glass uppers, two garden windows, a breakfast nook, granite countertops with full backsplash, and high-end stainless-steel appliances, including a built-in refrigerator. Dramatic architecture, fresh paint, new carpet, tile flooring, and a 3-car garage are also featured. A detached office makes a great studio or workshop, and the luxe primary suite displays a fireplace, a sitting area with bay window, a walk-in closet, dual vanities, a soaking tub, separate shower and a curved glass window.
Travel, even with a first-class ticket in hand, can try any passenger’s patience, jostling with long lines at TSA and customs checkpoints, consuming mass-produced meals and enduring overcrowded lounges before boarding. But a company called PS ensures pampered treatment for commercial airline customers before and after flights at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). The company recently introduced the same services at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), the world’s busiest.
Mounting frustrations over air travel have led to an explosion of private jet charters and fractional aircraft ownership programs, but PS eliminates most of the irritations over flying commercial airlines. Founded in 2017 as The Private Suite, PS is essentially an exclusive luxury terminal with a wide range of resources, including a stylish lounge called The Salon, private VIP suites in which to refresh before boarding, a no-hassle TSA checkpoint and chauffeured luxury sedan transportation directly to the aircraft.
Noting the concept already exists internationally, PS co-CEO Amina Porter explains, “Airports in the U.S. are becoming increasingly congested, and with so much innovation happening inside the plane cabin, we felt there was an opportunity to improve the airport experience.”
To illustrate that vision, she posits, “Imagine boarding a commercial flight without having to see a counter, line, crowd or gate!” While airports in the U.S. have increasingly focused on security, Porter insists that PS offers luxury and privacy without compromising security.
Joining PS means never standing in line again for TSA checks — and upon return the routine is equally seamless, including clearing customs privately and painlessly. This is how celebrities travel, but Porter says of her clientele, “Our members range from public figures to businesspeople to couples splurging on their honeymoon.” She adds, “They choose PS, whether occasionally or regularly, because they know PS upgrades their travel experience in a stress-free, luxurious way.”
While membership has its advantages, anybody can reserve PS services for a special trip. Non-member rates are currently $995 for use of the club-like Salon and $4,650 for a private suite that accommodates four or more. All-access annual membership fees are currently $4,850, which includes discounted or complimentary services throughout the year.

PS never shuttered during the pandemic, and Porter reports travelers’ desire to avoid large crowds naturally sparked increased interest in her services. “PS has benefited from travelers prioritizing safety and social distancing. Not only did we invent socially distant luxury, but our members absolutely love eliminating traffic, lines, shared surfaces, crowded concourses, and gate areas as they’re getting back in the groove of regular travel, says the hospitality executive.
The company used the pandemic-induced slowdown in air travel to enhance and expand its physical environments. “We took the low travel volumes as an opportunity to not only upgrade our existing spaces — the private suites, outdoor garden, the kitchen — but also introduce a brandnew concept: a social lounge at PS named The Salon,” reports Porter. “We worked with celebrity interior designer Cliff Fong to create the exact aesthetic we were looking for: a residential, collected and elevated ambiance that feels a world away from an airport lounge,” she explains.
The PS facility, located on the opposite side of the runways from the main terminal buildings at LAX, is about a twomile drive on access roads unburdened by L.A.’s typically horrendous traffic. The most accessible space within the PS facility is the tastefully designed Salon — with its sleek bar and cushy lounge furniture it has the air of a buzzworthy Beverly Hills restaurant — that is the equivalent to a private social club at the airport.
The company’s 20,000-square-foot building at LAX also contains 12 private suites, each attended to by a professional staff ranging from onsite concierge to private chauffeur. “It takes no less than eight PS team members to make the magic of a suite experience happen,” relates Porter. For the suites, designer Fong created a sophisticated residential aesthetic with soothing color palettes, high-end finishes, thoughtfully curated artwork, and coffee table volumes from Paris-founded publisher/ bookseller Assouline.
Each suite offers a pantry loaded with high-quality products, an equally well-stocked bar, cushy daybeds and marbleclad bathrooms complete with Japanese smart toilets. A generous supply of complimentary toiletries, beauty products and over-the-counter medications are provided to ensure a safe, comfortable journey. The PS suites, which have the relaxed feel of high-end condominiums, can be enjoyed up to three hours before or after a flight.
Supplementing the pantry and bar resources is high-end cuisine created in the company’s onsite commercial kitchen, but special requests are always accommodated. For an additional fee, guests can order food from anywhere in town, whether it be Spago or In-N-Out Burger, the latter very much in demand by Angelenos returning home after a long trip away from their favorite fast-food fix. Other amenities facilitated by PS staff include in-suite massages, manicures or hair styling, and the pandemic made physician visits a popular request among members.
When it is time to board one’s flight, private TSA checks are conducted inside the PS facility (sans the excruciating lines, of course), after which guests are escorted to a BMW 7-Series sedan for the short drive to their flight. PS clients are delivered directly to the aircraft, where they board either first or last, thereby avoiding the congestion and lines experienced at the gate.
Illustrating the ease of PS’ door-to-door transition, Porter notes that the entire distance from automobile to airplane door at LAX is a mere 70 steps for her clients, compared to approximately 2,200 steps for the average passenger. With sedan service, private customs check and suite availability, the return leg is equally agreeable. And with the company’s optional PS Direct service, passengers can be whisked directly from their arriving aircraft to their final destination, such as a corporate office, hotel or home.
After successfully debuting in Atlanta this year, Porter envisions an ambitious expansion for PS, providing far greater numbers of passengers an opportunity to experience air travel in a luxurious new way. “We want to be in every major U.S. airport,” says the pioneering travel and hospitality entrepreneur.
