The location was perfect, the weather was nice, the shops and restaurants were enjoyable, and our accommodations were perfect for the 2 of us - just as expected, clean, and bright. We especially enjoyed watching a hummingbird from the front porch. Communications with the owner were seamless and easy. Very nice welcome book - easy to find what we needed and complete. I look forward to staying there again!"

La Jolla Shores home with ocean view, private hot tub, gas fireplace & gas grill
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (161)
"Overall this was a very nice older home in an upscale neighborhood. Location was amazing! Very quiet and peaceful. Great patio area for people watching in the front facing the beach and a large area in the back yard with a hot tub. Short walk to La Jolla Beach and walkable to the town (1.7 miles). Too many fees added to the price made it expensive. The place was clean, but there were some small details that showed the age. Everything worked that we used so no complaints about that."

"Cute home moments walk away from the ocean and tidal pool adventures. Short drive to La Jolla Shores Beach for great swim, surf, SUP and beach time for the whole family to enjoy. Kitchen has most of basic needs for a small family. Kids bed arrangement best for small children - our 7 year old was able to use - our older children used the couch to sleep at night. Huge washer and dryer - a delight for road trips! Really appreciated supply of laundry and kitchen detergents - sufficient to get...

"We recently stayed at the cottage for a wedding. We had our adult children and another guest. The house was a comfortable size and the location was perfect. We could go for walks to the beach, walk into town and on Sunday there was a local farmers market that we walked to! The beds are comfy and for the most part the house was clean. As stated in other reviews, you may want to bring slippers or flip flops as the floors are old and leave your feet a bit dirty. When we arrived the mirror in the...

8.8 out of 10, Excellent, (49)
"This was a nice house to stay for a few days while visiting San Diego. The backyard is nice however those pretty flowers you see in the pics are airbrushed in. The pool looked a tad tired and so did the outdoor furniture. The pool was warm and I didn’t request it be heated. The interior was nice. The master bath was the nicest. The beds are comfortable. The neighborhood is quiet and this house is very private. It’s nice to not have cameras everywhere & I didn’t notice any here. A big negative is...
