LOVED this quaint little bungalow! So cute, had all the amenities we needed, plus beach items to use, quiet neighborhood, easy walk to ocean & food options, hosts were so kind & easy to work with. Perfect size for myself, husband & 16 yr old daughter - could not fit anymore in the house though. Highly recommend this rental.

Quiet, spacious shady retreat away from the hot sun, but a 20 minute walk to lovely Windandsea beach. You can see the sun set over the ocean from your private bench! Kind hosts and the adjacent La Jolla bike path were extra great.

This was the most perfect place for our family to stay and enjoy La Jolla. The hosts were so kind and lovely and everything about our stay was easy and convenient. Our two kids fell in love with bird watching and even got to see a couple of the resident wild bunnies. We caught some gorgeous sunsets from the private watching area and enjoyed all the bonuses like the hammock, the hot tub and the gorgeous covered space to enjoy our coffee in the mornings. Will 100% book again. Incredibly convenient location as well!

Lovely property, wonderful hosts! The hosts were easy to communicate with from the time we booked until the time we were home (and they found my missing sunglasses!). The property is in a great location for all things La Jolla and San Diego. Provided bikes were awesome, we took the trail to downtown for breakfast one morning. The beach is an easy ten minute walk. Don't underestimate having dedicated parking either, especially after a day of sightseeing and parking spot hunting in the rest of the city. Overall, a wonderful stay for my daughter and I for a long weekend!

The property was charming and as described. We loved the location and the privacy. Trish and Justin were both friendly and responsive to our questions. The attention to detail was impressive - kitchen was well-appointed, firewood was provided, there were plenty of towels, pillows, toilet paper, and drinks and snacks awaited us. There was nothing that we needed that we couldn't find.

The perfect getaway

As many of the reviews mention - the pictures do not do this property justice. It is the most peaceful and relaxing property I have been a guest at. Absolutely beautiful. We loved being able to enjoy a cup of coffee on the terrace and a glass of wine by the fireplace. Trish and Justin were fabulous hosts. We cannot wait to get back here!
