Great location, well presented property.
Suited our two couples very well. Nice courtyard at the rear and dining area at the front of the property worked well. Quiet notwithstanding central location.

True Gem in La Jolla Shores
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay - the place is perfect and in a great location. Short distance to the Main Street and a few blocks from the beach - can’t beat it. Everything is comfortable and I felt at home almost immediately. Highly recommend.

Wonderful house, perfect location
Loved staying here with our two kids (5, 7). The location was amazing-- a very short drive to downtown La Jolla, but walkable to the beach and a little strip of restaurants, coffee shops, and shops. House was great, had everything you could need in the kitchen, little patio outside was peaceful for relaxing and reading a book. Owner could not be more amazing in terms of communication. Any question she responded within minutes and made sure we were doing well in the house. Only issue we had was the washer dryer combo wasn't working when we were there-- washer did't work at first (then we got it going), but dryer wouldn't work at all. Owner was very apologetic and said they would get it fixed. But overall fantastic place and would highly recommend.

Wonderful cozy cottage
This cottage is beautiful, clean and has everything you need. Complete with fire pit to make s’mores. Beautifully decorated as well. Great location. 5-10 min walk to beach. Perfect for family of 4. There is space for everyone to spread out if they want alone time. Lots of toiletries provided as well as plenty of towels
