Great choice for easy-breezy time in La Jolla! Location was key for us on this trip, and this spot delivered exactly what we wanted. Super close beach access, quiet nights and mornings, and easy walks to fun breakfast cafes made it perfect. Living room and outdoor tiny patio are comfortable spots for two people, though not for any entertaining. The bedroom is small, but the bed is perfect. One of the most comfortable I've ever slept on. The kitchen is well-stocked with every small appliance you could want and plenty of plates and glasses of all types. No dishwasher, but that was fine with us as we were mostly eating out. -- One odd note: despite all the cooking utensils you could wish for, there was a very limited supply of flatware to eat from (only two forks, for example, of non-matching size). Again, for us this was not a big deal, but it might be for some people. Host communication was great, and super-responsive when we noted a minor issue.If you're looking for a spacious, elegant beach house, this isn't it. Several spots where a refreshed painting job would be nice. But for what my husband and I wanted, it was excellent and we'd stay here again for sure.

One block from one of the world's most beautiful beaches! What else could anyone want? Nice, simple place. If I could add anything, it might be a little washable rug on the floor. The directions should make it clear that you have to enter through an alleyway in the back--I'm sure they'll fix that minor glitch.

The listing is much smaller than it seems in photos. Very bare bones, basically just a place to sleep. Felt pretty overwhelmed the first night because I didn’t realize how small it would feel and considered leaving and booking a new place. The apartment was very dirty, I had to keep wiping the bottom of my feet if I was walking around inside without socks. There was a folded cardboard box keeping the ceiling fan from rocking, which didn’t function as intended anyways, and a dirty napkin shoved into a hole in the ceiling in the bedroom. Honestly very off putting and not worth the cost paid. Also only had two towels for two people for 6 days, with no washing machine. Had to use the same shower towel for 6 days as no more were provided. The shower was so small I kept hitting my elbows on the walls, and felt like I was staying in someone’s college house due to the dirt and size. Also no coffee filters were provided for the coffee maker, making it impossible to make a cup without drinking all the grinds and probably breaking the machine. Additionally, the smart lock stopped working one night, so I had to climb in through the bedroom window to get back inside. Might’ve been better off sleeping outside, as the basement style windows certainly aren’t the easiest way to get back inside. Only perk was it’s a few minute walk to the beach. I’d recommend booking a different place to stay.

Response from VrboOwner on 21 Jun, 2026
We sincerely apologize for the conditions you experienced during your stay. The cleanliness issues, lack of towels for a 6-day visit, the broken ceiling fan and hole in the ceiling, missing coffee filters, and the smart lock failure are serious problems that should not have occurred. We're very sorry you felt so uncomfortable that you considered leaving, and we understand your frustration with the overall experience. The discrepancy between the listing photos and the actual space is also a valid concern. We take your detailed feedback very seriously and are committed to addressing these issues and improving the property significantly for future guests. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
