This was the most perfect place for our family to stay and enjoy La Jolla. The hosts were so kind and lovely and everything about our stay was easy and convenient. Our two kids fell in love with bird watching and even got to see a couple of the resident wild bunnies. We caught some gorgeous sunsets from the private watching area and enjoyed all the bonuses like the hammock, the hot tub and the gorgeous covered space to enjoy our coffee in the mornings. Will 100% book again. Incredibly convenient location as well!

Lovely property, wonderful hosts! The hosts were easy to communicate with from the time we booked until the time we were home (and they found my missing sunglasses!). The property is in a great location for all things La Jolla and San Diego. Provided bikes were awesome, we took the trail to downtown for breakfast one morning. The beach is an easy ten minute walk. Don't underestimate having dedicated parking either, especially after a day of sightseeing and parking spot hunting in the rest of the city. Overall, a wonderful stay for my daughter and I for a long weekend!

This was a true find. We loved how it nestled into the hill and provided a green oasis while we explored the ocean and La Jolla. Very easy to walk to many things. Would have loved the bikes - but it rained when we had time for them. Thanks!

Wonderful

This place is so dreamy and relaxing — it’s our favorite place we’ve ever stayed. Loved the fireplace and hot tub, as well as cooking in the kitchen. There was some rain during our visit to La Jolla which made our stay here feel extra cozy, but we were able to take the bikes out during a break in the rain which was an incredible way to explore the area. Trish and Justin are A+ hosts — super kind and responsive. Don’t pass up an opportunity to stay here! We hope to come back soon.
