About this property

SD Writer's Pad ~ KILLER location near La Jolla, PB, Downtown ~ walk to Trolley!

This sunny condo is close to EVERYTHING.. The bay, beach, Downtown! PB just down the hill, La Jolla (one exit away), Sea World, Old Town and Downtown Gas Lamp District just minutes away. Walk to the Trolley Station… Huge windows in living room, balcony. Flatscreen smart T.V.'s in every room. Fast Wifi, cable, gorgeous kitchen w/granite bar.. Swimming pool, huge jacuzzi. BBQ’s - deck areas… Newly remodeled, beautiful furnishings. Comfy beds; high end mattresses, luxury linens! Fully appointed kitchen with spices, cooking oils and bar ware. Walk to restaurants/bars, sushi bar, brewery, liquor store & dry-cleaners; all just around the corner.
As condos go, it is excellent... only one common wall on the North side... quiet neighbors. It is an amazing location as it is super close to the freeway and though you are right there above Pacific Beach, you don't have to be 'stuck' trying to get in and out of beach traffic in summer. La Jolla is just one exit away on the freeway and all of the most popular beaches and attractions are an easy and quick ride. That way you can Uber down into PB or La Jolla or downtown for super cheap if you want to have cocktails!

Another Great Stay!
Our family of four spent 2 wonderful weeks feeling right at home at the Writer’s Pad. We found Lacy’s condo to be so spectacular that this was a return visit! The Writer’s Pad is a clean, updated and quiet condo that has everything from a fully stocked kitchen with newer appliances, comfortable beds, plenty of high quality linens and towels and easy access to laundry facilities, propane BBQ’s and the large outdoor pool and Jacuzzi. The condo features three flatscreen tv’s, fast WiFi, fans for warmer days and plenty of room to relax both inside and outside on the balcony. Owner Lacy made our late arrival check-in a breeze and made sure to leave some much needed beverages and snacks after a long drive. She also left us with a few dates and locations of some fun local attractions to make our stay even more enjoyable. Thank you Lacy for being a wonderful host with attentive and quick communication before, during and after our stay!

Wonderful Stay
We had a nice time visiting San Diego with this as our home base. Locate close enough to everything that we could visit the city, south to the border, north into Carlsbad and beyond and east to the desert and Julian in the mountains. The condo had all we needed for a relaxing week. We all agreed we would definity stay again.

Comfortable and well appointed
The apartment is comfortable, well appointed and very close driving distance to La Jolla, Pacific Beach, and San Diego attractions. A quiet place to work or relax during the day or to recharge in the evening after a day sightseeing.

Great DIY Writing Retreat Location
This place really fit our requirements. It was clean and well appointed. The owner was helpful and information. Two small reasons why it isn't getting a 5. You need a car. It's not as central as I would have liked and the neighborhood isn't walkable. Also, no laundry in the unit itself (which was a surprise). We'd book it again.

I am a singer-songwriter-author. I am also a San Diego native and know this place like the back of my hand. I love this city.. it is so close to everything...

Why they chose this property

This property is so special because it is in a most ideal location. Easy access to freeway and you can go to La Jolla, Pacific Beach, Mission Bay Downtown San Diego (The Gaslamp District) all within a few minutes! You can also walk just around the corner from this condo to several restaurants, bars, a winery and a brewery... (also a coffee hut, a liquor store and a dry-cleaner). If you don't want to drive that's easy too because evrything is a cheap Uber ride away. The condo has instruments to play and super comfy beds with expensive linens. It has a very sunny livingroom with lots of natural light and gorgeous decor. Everything is newly remodeled.
