About this property

3 Blocks From Beach, Free Kayak Rentals

Nestled above a retail space in the quaint La Jolla Shores neighborhood, this upstairs unit is a two minute walk from San Diego's most beautiful and family friendly beaches, La Jolla Shores.

The unit is upstairs from Hike Bike Kayak Adventures, who generously includes free equipment rentals for guests of this unit including kayaks, boogie boards, snorkels, foam surf boards, paddle boards and wetsuits. They also include 25% off guided tours for guests of this unit.

The unit is a one bed, one bath with queen size blow up matress. Perfect for a couple or young family.

La Jolla Shores is a mile long pristine beach and the neighborhood is much quieter, easier to park, and more relaxing than La Jolla Village. However, La Jolla Village and La Jolla Cove are still a five minute car ride, fifteen minute bike ride (for adults), or twenty minute walk. While La Jolla Shores has such famous restaurants as Piatti's, Osteria Romantica, and the five-star Marine Room, the shopping, restaurants, bars, and art galleries are still very accessible from this location.

From La Jolla Shores, depending on the season, you can relax on the beach in the sun, kayak the La Jolla Sea Caves, snorkel with the famous (and completely harmless) leopard sharks, kayak with gray whales, surf gentle waves, boogie board around the beautiful coast. All with equipment or instruction from Hike Bike Kayak Adventures.

Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Fantastic location! Close to beach, shops, and restaurants. Apartment is comfortable for a short stay. Arriving and leaving was extremely convenient and the communication with the host was great. I especially appreciated the access to kayaks from the shop. Really made my stay wonderful!I would make a small suggestion to do some refreshing of certain things, especially the pillows on the bed.

The location was amazing! Hands down a 5! However, very disappointed in the rental. The place seemed very run-down- mold on shower curtain and in shower, ceiling fans filthy, carpet dirty, balcony run down, pillows yellow, smell and dirty for the bed, 1 of the 4 beach chairs were usable! Very upsetting to see the condition from a top VRBO host.

This is a lovely place to stay which is very close to some fantastic places to eat (including the best little bakery/coffee shop next door) and the beach is within a very short walking distance. We would definitely stay here again!

We absolutely loved our stay while visiting our freshman at UCSD! We made use of wetsuits and surfboards to have family fun as well as appreciated the discount on a kayak tour. The location is so perfect- steps away from the beach and breakfast/coffee shop next door. We also lived the Cheese shop for sandwiches. There is a fun and festive evening atmosphere to walk around. We will be back!
