Sit back and relax to the sound of the ocean. Oceanfront seating.
Location: Village of La Jolla, La Jolla, San Diego County, California, USA (On the Coast of La Jolla) View Map
Accommodations: Cottage, 2 Bedrooms, 1 Bath (Sleeps 4-5)
This cottage, known as Cahill Cottage, is on Whale Watch point, a quaint, hidden section of cliff along the Pacific Coast in the village of La Jolla. There is nothing in front of this two bedroom cottage but ocean. A patio in the front of the cottage is set up for the best sunset watching in town.
There are few places on the Pacific Coast where the ocean is viewed and experienced in such splendor. During the months of December thru March a parade of whales dance across the horizon and can be seen spouting and jumping from the windows. Down the cliffs are great tidal pools ready for young and old to explore.
Also there are sandy beaches to the left and right great for body surfing or boogie boarding. Just a block away is the famous seal rookery where you can watch baby seals swim with their mommas. On one of the beaches you can swim with the seals yourself. All just within a block of the cottage.
The cottage was remodeled in sea cottage blues and greens, very soothing. The living room gives view to the most beautiful stretch of coast line in San Diego. The decor is warm and comfortable as any west or east coast sea cottage can promise. Extremely clean this place lets you just sink into its cozy sofas and fill in your senses with the sounds of the ocean. The large living room, with TV and cable, and outstanding ocean views of the waves, just steps away, a waits you.
There are also two large bedrooms and a full bathroom in between the bedrooms. One bedroom has a king-sized bed; the other has 2 twin beds. The twins can be made into another king if needed. The living room has a couch that converts into a larger than a twin bed.
You can hear the ocean from both rooms, with one facing the ocean with a 6 by 6 window taking in the view.
The kitchen is modern and ready for any cook. There is a formal dining room, a laundry room and a large living room with a fireplace. Two patios surround the house giving ample room for sunning and dining. The house has approximately 2,000 square feet.
The color scheme is clearly done in open hues of blues, tans and corals for a fresh ocean cottage look. The house brightens the spirit and the ocean calms the soul. A stay here will be a time you will never forget.
It must be experienced. The price for 2 couples is way less than any 2 hotel rooms in the village and it is closer to the water than any hotel in town. You get a whole house, not just a small bedroom!
Please give this wonderful 1950's cottage a try, you will not regret it.

There is nothing in front of this two bedroom cottage but ocean, making this the perfect place for sunset and whale watching. December thru March, parades of whales dance across the horizon and can be seen spouting and jumping from the windows.
Sandy beaches to the left and right, great for body surfing or boogie boarding. Just a block away is the famous seal rookery where you can watch baby seals swim with their mommas.
