Absolutely Loved Our Stay in La Jolla

We stayed from April 4-7 and had an amazing time. The apartment is spacious, clean, and beautifully designed. The kitchen was a standout—fully stocked and perfect for cooking meals. We felt right at home. Evenings were peaceful and romantic as we watched sunsets from the front of the house. The location is ideal - right across from the ocean and walking distance to La Jolla Village with great restaurants, shops, and theaters. Highly recommend this place for a relaxing, scenic getaway. We’d love to stay again!

This was exactly what we had hoped for and more.

We are a family of four and were looking for a spot to stay in san diego that was walkable to town and the ocean, clean and quiet. This checked all the boxes. The location is amazing - the building is literally across the street from the ocean. While it doesn't face the water, you walk out the front door and you're right there. sunrise, sunset, walk down to the water....so beautiful. Prime spot for walking to la jolla cove or an easy walk into town for restaurants and shopping. we had a car so the garage was helpful for exploring greater san diego but we didn't need it in town. The apartment itself was beautiful, renovated and very clean. Easy in and out. It is definitely a quiet spot which is what we wanted. I would not stay here if you're a louder party crowd. The owners were super helpful and responsive. We hope to have the chance to come back again in the future. Thanks for everything!

La ubicación está increíble

La ubicación está increíble, el mar a unos cuantos metros, caminar y ver la Fauna marina fue una maravilla. Los restaurantes de lujo, el departamento muy limpio y acogedor

Aug 04, 2025 Wonderful property Wonderful property - right across the street from the water with multiple access points. Convenient to shops and restaurants. Well appointed and comfortable condo. Great hosts who were easy to reach and very helpful. Alden E
Aug 24, 2025 Great location right next to the beach and an easy walking distance to La Jolla village with great restaurants. Great set up for couples or small groups for a week of remote work. The hosts were very flexible and responsive to any questions or issues. William Brockman
Oct 16, 2025 Garage opener was not where it was supposed to be, but everything else was great. Unit was clean and quiet with access to stunning walks alng the shore. Carl Brooks
Oct 23, 2025 Beautiful and roomy spot on the fourth floor within steps to the beach. Great location, walkable to restaurants, shops and sights. Partial ocean view but mostly windows to the street. Two key codes required to enter the complex and the room. While there are two window A/C units, the space could benefit from ceiling fans. The hot water takes a long time to warm up but the host was responsive and offered to send someone to look at it. Kendal Perez
