What a view!! Girls trip. Two of us. We did not cook or do laundry while we were there. The home is beautiful and immaculate, the beds comfortable, the showers great! The host was easy to communicate with! Did I mention the view?! My only piece of advice is that if you walk into town, you might want to Uber back! That hill was a little tough for us to climb! Maybe nexttime we’ll bring our husbands!

Francis was a lovely & thoughtful host, checking in on us regularly to ensure we had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. His home was so clean, bright and comfortable, with beautiful ocean views, a well stocked kitchen for cooking light meals, and a clothes washer & dryer - perfect for active guests and longer stays. My husband and I love to walk whenever possible, so we were happy with the convenient walking distance to local cafes, restaurants, grocery stores, and downtown La Jolla, as well as the La Jolla coastal trails and beaches. We also loved the ocean view deck for enjoying Al Fresco breakfasts, and sunsets after a day out.

Beautiful views in the heart of downtown la jolla

Went to school at UCSD and always love making my way back to La Jolla when I’m in SoCal. Brought my family along this trip and really enjoyed the stay. The property has gorgeous views of La Jolla and is so close to all of the things you need. My family and I had a blast!

It's all about the view

Accommodations were good; the location and view were awesome. The kitchen is very well equipped and we appreciated the spacious refrigerator/freezer with an icemaker. You'll want to bring shower gel, shampoo and Kleenex.

Wonderful view, great location, easy walking distances and the cottage fit our aged family perfectly. Comfortable beds and outfitted kitchen for family meals or jigsaw puzzles. Might suggest at least one comfort height toilet seat install, regardless it was easy to manage.

Incredible view and everything you need

The view from Sunset Cottage is second to none! Francis, the host, is helpful and available and the house is well-stocked with everything you may need. It is located close enough to walk to Girard St in La Jolla but also far enough away from the hubbub of downtown. We will definitely be back.

Thank you for a beautiful short stay

My family and I had a fabulous long weekend at Sunset Cottage. The property is clean and exactly as pictured, communication from the host was prompt and friendly, check-in instructions were clear and complete. Wi-fi was fast and reliable, which was nice on the super foggy morning we were stuck inside. We appreciated the extensive area information provided in a binder. For those concerned that there is no dedicated parking, we were there on a holiday weekend and had no problems at all. The neighborhood was quiet and felt safe. I would 100% stay here again.

No better place overlooking La Jolla

Our hosts were VERY attentive, made everything quite easy. But the two windows - one at the snack table and the second in front of the master bed - are front row seats to the spectacular sunsets of La Jolla. Any reader of this review should hear the sound of relaxation and ease. Next time we're back we intend on coming back to this property!

Exploring San Diego

Very clean which is important to us! Had all needed basic necessities! Perfect location to explore the San Diego/la Jolla area. Very relaxing atmosphere to return to each evening to chill and watch the beautiful sunset and rest before beginning our next day’s explorations! So nice to have a washer/dryer, beach towels and cooler to borrow!! Thank you!!

Wonderful place to stay

My husband, three children and I absolutely loved our stay at Sunset Cottage. The view of the ocean was spectacular and the house was nicely furnished. It was also so nice to have laundry detergent, paper towels, napkins and several rolls of toilet paper left for us so we didn’t need to go out and purchase that. Beds were comfy and the owners have a nice information binder with lots of great restaurant suggestions and things to do in the area as well as maps. The house is located on a nice quiet street and the location was great to get around to the local restaurants and stores. We would definitely stay here again the next time we vacation to San Diego!

Would stay again in a heartbeat!

Property was exactly as described. We had everything we needed and more. Property was very clean and well maintained. Homeowner was extremely responsive and helpful. I was traveling with my elderly mother. House was very easy for her to manage with zero stairs. I enjoyed short walks down into town and up further into hills. We enjoyed the view and spacious living room. We would definitely stay here again.

Incredible view and location

The pictures of this place don't do it justice. It definitely overdelivers. It's a 2/2 house on the top of the hill surrounded by mansions in a great neighborhood in La Jolla. Extremely safe, only 10 min walk to downtown La Jolla. The view from the bedroom and living room are absolutely spectacular. Owner was very responsive and helpful. I will definitely stay here again! Thank you for offering your property to rent for others to enjoy becuase this place is a gem!

Well maintained home with Beautiful Sunset

The property was perfect for our grandparent/grandchild trip. The two bedroom/two bath was ideal for our needs. Not only was there a washer/dryer, they provided the soap. The house was very clean and the view of the ocean and sunset was spectacular and was icing on the cake. A warning...If you are a walker, the last portion of the road up to the house is fairly steep.

We were pleasantly surprised by the views and location of the Sunrise Cottage. Sunsets were amazing. It is close enough to walk into town or the beach, but, the hike back up the hill to the cottage may not be for all. Francis was very responsive when I had questions and the cottage was spotless. I would happily rent the cottage again. Make sure you pack shampoo, body soap and conditioner. It was not included and I missed seeing that when I read the listing.

Stunning view and quiet retreat

This was a great place to stay at in La Jolla for my husband and I. We would definitely stay here again. The house is in a quiet neigborhood and yet it is only a short walk to the beach, restaurants, and shopping. It is only a short drive to the major San Diego attractions. The house could easily accommodate 2 couples or a family. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals. In general, the house was well stocked with the things we needed. Having a/c in the entire house was appreciated as there were a few warm days. Sitting outside on the balcony and enjoying the gorgeous 180 degree ocean view is a real treat. The view is also great from the living room master bedroom, and kitchen. Francis was wonderful--she was a pleasure to work with. She made sure that everything went well while still giving us a private get away. We have stayed at a lot of rental houses and this one is a 5+ out of 5!
