About the host

Hosted by Trish Stanley

Host profile image
I'm a couples' therapist by profession, and love the freedom that being self-employed gives me, to play with my schedule, plan travel, and take off on adventures. My next trip will be a live aboard boat trip to the Channel Islands off the coast of Santa Barbara for hiking, snorkeling, birdwatching and kayaking.
I have always loved entertaining on a small intimate scale, and now, hosting this vacation rental gives me the opportunity to welcome guests from all over the world. I've always loved connecting people with what they are looking for, and now I get to recommend spectacular hikes, the most perfect local beach, tucked away restaurant gems, art venues, Kayak adventures and more.

Why they chose this property

I have lived in this amazing setting for 44 years. The front house, where I live, used to be a train station on the La Jolla-Pacific Beach Electric Railway over a hundred years ago. The Bike Path which runs in front of the property (instead of a street) was the right of way for the railroad tracks. Some of the original Monterey Cypress trees still provide shade! The back bungalow was built in the postwar period, and has a mix of mid-century modern and craftsman styles in its ambiance. Water features, wild bird and hummingbird feeders, a few carefully placed wind chimes: all contribute to a comforting, restorative environment.

What makes this property unique

What's really special about this property is that there is only one neighbor on this side of the bike path. To the north and east we are surrounded by permanent open space. And then, it's only a two-minute drive, five-minute walk and 3 blocks to the world famous Windansea Beach. Champion surfers claim the surf breaks here, but there's room to swim, boogie board or rest and read in one of the sheltered sandy spots between the large sandstone formations.
On-site are an ocean view bench for sunset watching, a new double hammock with pillow for daydreaming, a alcove under a tree with two cushioned Adirondack chairs for morning coffee and a private covered patio with a teak table and chairs and a cushioned chaise. I am tickled when guests rave about the quiet, the feeling of spaciousness and the unique ambiance of Windansea Woods!
