Great house with beach, ocean view. Well equipped except no beach equipment. I mean no beach chairs, beach umbrellas, boogie boards, carts etc. So, for house accomadating 12 guests, you need to travel 6 miles to pick up ‘free’ rental equipment and haul back to house, then repeat in reverse last afternoon. How I am supposed to do this without pickup truck? Outside of that, top notch place for summer rental. Easy walk to beach, which is fantastic esp for children with a very gradual wave break. Beach is busy, that’s okay by me, no problem swimming. Nearby nice restauants on Avenida De La Playa. La Jolla Shores my favorite beach town.

Thank you for your detailed feedback, Daniel! We're glad you enjoyed the house and the beautiful beach, especially the gentle waves perfect for children. We appreciate your note about the beach equipment—it's helpful for future guests to know about the rental process and potential logistical challenges. We're happy to hear you found the house top-notch and enjoyed the nearby restaurants and La Jolla Shores. We hope to host you again for another fantastic summer getaway!

Great well built open concept house

We enjoyed the house and the open air and high ceilings of the house. We had plenty of room to spread out- we did not have little kids but had we the house had lots of bunk beds for a big family reunion. The upstairs patio was great too/ for sunset

Great stay, walkable to La Jolla Shores shop/restaurant area and beach

Beautiful property, with ample space to spread out and relax even when traveling with a big group. Easy walk to the beach and local shops/restaurants in La Jolla Shores. The property has some beach equipment and says that they have a deal for free beach rentals for bikes/surf/beach gear but note that none of them seem to be close by La Jolla Shores. The lock for the casita can be a bit tricky —more detailed instructions might be helpful for the property guide.

We're so glad you enjoyed the space and convenient location near the beach and La Jolla Shores. We appreciate you noting the beach gear availability and the location of the free rental partners; that's helpful for us to clarify with future guests. We’ll look into ways to improve that convenience. We’d love to welcome you back anytime, Rebecca!

Lived up to the hype

The pictures and description of the home and property certainly got my attention and did not disappoint! Home is beautiful, great finishes and very functional with lots of great common areas to hang out. Host was amazing and professional. Short walk to beach and restaurants/cafes. Loved it!

Gorgeous clean property

Everything was even more beautiful in person. We loved that every inch was clean and the kitchen was well-stocked with dishes and supplies for the group. Easily walkable to beach. Actual person answered when I called with a question. Just needs beach supplies likes chairs and an umbrella. Otherwise, perfection!
