Review Submitted: 11/27/11
This being our first time to La Jolla booked a week stay at what turn out to be a faboulous rental home. Everything was perfect. It was like staying in a top floor suite in the Ritz Carlton! This home has everything! Every morning we walked a block to Starbucks, the grocery store a block away, unbelievable choice of restaurants withing 2 to 5 block walking distance and of course the beach in which we walked to every morning with our cup of coffee for our morning walk. The owners (Lisa & Mike) were absolutely delightful. We rate this a 5 star!!

We have stayed in a number of rental properties over the last 4-5 years and this is the nicest one yet! The property is exactly as described and the owners (Michael & Lisa) go out of their way to make it as comfortable as possible. They have thought of every detail to make it a wonderful home away from home. The location is a few blocks from the beautiful beaches of La Jolla and an easy stroll to shopping, coffee, dining, etc. They even had beach toys for our two year old! Perfect place for families or couples.

Please "View Property Details" .. they say it all ... and the photos are all exactly as they are in reality... It is a truthful description of this beautiful LaJolla Getaway Vacation Home. The Location in the quaint LaJolla is perfect. Easy and close to walk to everything : the beach, restaurants, shops, cute town, farmers market, etc... as well as near the highway to the rest of California/ LA/ San Diego. The Home is Clean (extremely) and well maintained. I truly recommend this vacation home to any friends and family adventuring to the East Coast. Fellow Travelers -Enjoy - I am jealous of your trip - I know it will be fabulous!

Four of us spent a lovely week here in October 2010. The apartment was well appointed, comfortable and very well-equipped. The advertised pictures were accurate as was the description of the property. We felt that this was a homely property and would easily return if the opportunity ever arose. The proprietors were extremely helpful and most friendly and made the stay very pleasant. They even provided us with the day's newspapers after they had read them, which was before breakfast!. We were welcomed with a plate of home-made cakes. They also offered for us to use their computer to print off our boarding passes for the flight home. Las Jolla itself has a pleasant, relaxed air about it. It is in a pretty cove setting and there are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby as well as a large supermarket within 100 yards. It is also near enough to the main sights of San Diego. Our sincere thanks to Lisa and Michael.

Recommended! This place meets the description in every aspect. Like earlier visitors we were pleasantly surprised by how clean and well maintained this place is. Also our communication with the Maher family was very pleasant, both before and during our stay. The location of the guest house is good. A couple of blocks from the Windansea beach. It's walking distance, but with beach gear you'd prefer to take the car. Also downtown La Jolla (The Cove area) is a short drive away. La Jolla Shores is a bit further, 15-20 min. drive depending on traffic. Windansea is a nice beach to hang out and watch the surfers. The Shores is more a family type beach with less surf. Be sure to go snorkeling on the south end and look for the Leopard sharks (they're harmless). Also watch out for stingrays, the don't like to be stepped upon. Snorkeling at The Cove is fantastic, plenty of fish and it's great to swim with the Sea Lions. There are a couple of nice restaurants and a Starbucks one block away. Be sure to check out Bernini's Bistro. The house also has a nice kitchen and an outside grill if you prefer to stay home for dinner. We're looking forward to coming back to La Jolla and staying in this house again.

Perfection in La Jolla

Date of Stay: 02/25/10
Review Submitted: 04/14/10
We (four adults) stayed in the Village Guest House at the end of February, 2010 and loved every minute! Lisa and Michael were friendly and helpful, the accommodations were exactly as described, and La Jolla has become our dream for our retirement years. The Mahers were easy to contact and deal with regarding our stay, and take obvious pride in their rental property which is right behind their own home. When we arrived, there was a bottle of wine, fresh fruit and flowers to welcome us. The living room seating and beds were very comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed, the Wifi was complimentary and there was a collection of movies for entertainment. They also allow guests to use their laundry facilities which was an added bonus. The free parking was appreciated and you'll find you don't need your car when you stay at the Village Guest House - just about everything is within walking distance. La Jolla is a beautiful area with a wonderful downtown, pretty beaches and parks and wonderful restaurants. We enjoyed Piatti (in La Jolla Shores) and Whisknladle - and if you drive into downtown San Diego, don't miss De Medici, Kemo Sabe and Rama. We highly recommend this vacation rental and wouldn't have changed a thing about it. One couldn't ask for a better place to call home in La Jolla!

Four of us stayed in this homey vacation rental in February. Everything was just as described or even better. The property is on a pretty side street within easy walking distance of the beach, shopping, restaurants and groceries. The Mahers went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed, even setting us up with a wonderful realtor they knew, since we are interested in purchasing property in the area. Communication and the rental process were both quick and trouble-free. The unit was immaculate and comfortable with a full kitchen and outside patio grill, nice-sized bedrooms and a large living room with TV, DVD/VCR player and plenty of movies for entertainment. Wireless internet was complimentary and worked perfectly. A nice bottle of wine, fresh fruit and flowers were there to welcome us when we arrived, and Lisa and Michael were friendly and warm every time we crossed paths (they live on-site). The washing machine and dryer downstairs was an added bonus. La Jolla is a little slice of heaven, with beautiful views of the ocean, pretty parks and a nice downtown area. Our favorite restaurant was an Italian place in La Jolla Shores called Piatti, but we also loved Whisknladle. If you want to drive into downtown San Diego, we highly recommend De Medici, Rama and Kemo Sabe. I know we will be back to stay in the Village Guest House and are sure you will be just as happy with your visit as we were!

We were here in February, 2010 for a respite from the snowy Northeast! Lisa and Mike's place is perfect in every regard: wonderful location with every amenity you can think of, charming hosts, super comfy beds (!), and La Jolla is a beach lover's delight! We will go back!!

The owners are wonderful people living on the property and will accomodate most requests and are very gracious people. The view of the ocean is a little distant but we saw wonderful sunsets. We were within walking distance to nice restaurants and shops. We enjoyed the fireplace in the cool evenings. We will certainly try to return again.
