We have stayed in this area a couple of times and loved this property. The proximity to the beach is amazing.The yard and hot tub were amazing. The house supplied us enough room to move around, and with a two-year-old with us, it allowed us quiet rooms for naps and sleep.

Despite how old the house is, it’s very clean and the garden is incredible!! We loved relaxing in the yard among an abundance of flowers and beautiful landscaping. The location can’t be beat within a short walk of a great beach and the yard adds to the whole experience. Parking on the road gets tricky depending on the time of day and proximity to neighbors can be interesting but it was worth it! We loved our time in this darling updated beach house!

Our host was amazing and very responsive to messages. Beautifully restored cottage with everything we needed for a long weekend stay. Centrally located for everything we wanted to do (the zoo, Torrey Pines, USS Midway, Coronado Island). Very quiet neighborhood just a short walk from the beach and a short walk or drive to SO many restaurants. We felt very safe there and had windows and doors open to enjoy the gorgeous weather. The house was spotless! We would stay here again without hesitation!

We had an amazing stay in this perfect beach cottage! Lots of charm in the house itself and it’s very tastefully decorated, too. Beds were comfy and the house had everything we needed. The location was fantastic- a quick walk to the beach in one direction (we loved watching the surfers) and a quick walk for coffee in the other direction. Owners were very easy to work with. We’d stay again in a heartbeat!

Excellent stay

Fantastic neighborhood and such a neat cottage house, so close to the beach, walking distance to an excellent coffee shop and market place store, 7-11 etc but otherwise very quiet and tranquil. We had a great stay and everything was as advertised. The house is charming, not new but that is the charm. We loved it!

We loved this cottage by Windansea beach. It is a very cozy comfortable home. The location is incredible. The house is a very short walk to the beach. Within a block there are several great spots to eat and a very nice market . It is also an easy 15 minute walk to Pearl street with many more dining options including an excellent fish market, an Afghan restaurant and much more. A really sweet cottage in a great beach neighborhood.

We loved our stay at this house right down the street from Windansea Beach! Lovely garden on the property and front porch that is perfect for morning coffee or evening glass of wine. It's in a great neighborhood with lots of coffee shops and restaurants walkable nearby. Would definitely stay again- Crystal is a great host!

Perfect Family Spot!

This charming beach cottage was a perfect home base for my two pre-teen boys and mom while we explored La Jolla and the surrounding area. The location was perfect - a block from the beach and steps away from a market for breakfast essentials. A quick drive or 1.5mi walk to La Jolla center and sea lion hangouts! We loved the hot tub and the convenience of laundry. The garden and outdoor space was impressive and fresh flowers inside were a lovely touch! Highly recommend and would stay again!
