This property worked out great for a week long family of 5 vacation. Centrally located in La Jolla within walking distance to the ocean, restaurants, and close enough to all that San Diego has to offer. The only reason for the 4-stars under the accuracy of listing is the pictures didn't give us an overall layout as to the bedroom and bathroom locations prior to arrival. Overall, great size house for a family of five to enjoy all La Jolla has to offer. I would definitely rent again!

This served our needs as a family with young children traveling with our dog perfectly! We previously lived in SD so we’re very familiar with how to get around and time traffic, but easy enough for someone unfamiliar with the area. The overall functionality of the amenities far outweighed the drawbacks and a great deal for renting an entire house. Pros: five minutes walking from both beach and tide pools; multiple food options walkable, grocery stores (Von’s & CVS) a short drive or longer walk if carrying items; Costco (including gas) and Trader Joe’s are about 15 minutes drive (without traffic); a full kitchen and laundry facilities; a back patio secluded from the street for eating, relaxing or just drying wet items; time traffic and it’s an easy drive down into PB/Mission Bay & major attractions like Sea World and the world famous San Diego Zoo; covered parking/carport shared with owner (street parking can be tough); new/big tv with streaming services provided; relatively quiet neighborhood and safe enough to not worry about walking the dog at night. Cons: it’s an older house, so almost everything is dated; no AC and the whole house fan, while helpful, does have some limitations, so set expectations accordingly (we went in summer so no need to use the old/clunky looking wall mounted, floor level heaters); the electrical system can easily be overloaded, with breaker reset process included in welcome instructions; I found the mattress in the master far too firm to sleep comfortably, but that’s subjective; loud/dangerous driving can easily be heard in the area at night; being that close to the beach, street parking can be tough to come by if you need more than the provided carport; the PA system/music of a nearby comedy club can easily travel very loudly at night. All in all, this is a great location to use as a base to enjoy the area from, especially if you treat it like a vacation hotel and primarily use it to sleep, eat breakfast/ dinner and reset between excursions, except it comes with much more space to relax and spread out than any hotel. Plus, being pet friendly was a very important factor for us!

I really enjoyed my stay at this beautiful La Jolla house. The host, Kim, was wonderful to work with. Two days before my trip my dog had an injury and my dog sitter was not comfortable with giving him pills and I wanted my dog with me. I messaged Kim and she answered within a few hours and allowed me to pay the pet fee and bring my dog with. This was a trip saver for me. As for the house, I think there are some areas that need to be upgraded because it is getting older. Pros: Very clean house. I was impressed with how clean the house was when I first walked in. I appreciated all of the cooking supplies. Close to everything. There are three ways to get to the beach from the house that do not require driving and the longest is only about a 7 minute walk. There are a lot of food options also within walking distance. The grocery store is about four lights up and there is a CVS really close that has free customer parking. The gas station at the corner had some of the lowest gas prices that I saw in CA. The host provided supplies for the beach which were very handy. Here are my cons: The front room only has two small end table lights that do not do much good at night. It would be nice to see a ceiling fan/light combo added to all of the rooms as only the master bedroom has a ceiling fan. The kitchen is missing drinking cups and cereal bowls. There were six small cups that were starting to crack and five glass cups. I think there were only four cereal bowls. It would have been nice to have a bigger seasoning selection for cooking and oil. All that was provided were salt and pepper, but this is me being nitpicky. The cleaning supplies were limited; there were no replacement garbage bags, two kitchen hand towels, only enough mopping solution to do about half the floors, only four rolls of toilet paper for four people and seven days. There were only 3 full size bath towels for four people. The lights were burned out in the hall and the light above the kitchen sink. The big question is would I stay here again, and I think I would. The house is clean and in a great location. The cleaning supplies are limited and the few towels and TP are livable and I can buy that stuff at the store.

Great location, walk to everything....beach, restaurants, groceries, etc. Deck out back was nice. All amenities needed for the family. Would definitely stay again.

Had a great stay at Kim's. She was responsive and easy to communicate with. The house was walking distance to so many places and had everything I needed for my stay. Thanks!

This house is a just a short walk to the La Jolla beach and the wonderful promenade above the beach. And it's also a short walk to many good restaurants on Pearl Strest and elsewhere in La Jolla Village. It was a comfortable old house and we really enjoyed our stay. Spacious and comes with most things you'll need.

Wonderful!

This unit is one of the few stand alone houses that you will that is available to rent on the beach side of La Jolla Boulevard. Kim was a pleasure to work with and the house is spacious and clean, with wood floors running through much of it. The location cannot be beat, within a few blocks of Marine Beach and the cove.

Kim's rental is a mid-century beach house in a great location near White Sands Beach and within a short stroll of everything in La Jolla village. Kim's great to work with, the house is cozy and spacious, and the included off street parking is a huge bonus!

This place was great for our family. Amazing location and spacious older house with a nice backyard. They also have beach chairs and toys as well as nicely equipped kitchen with all we need to feel home. The host was always very helpful and gave us all information we needed for a great stay.

I am reluctant to share how wonderful this place is because it might be booked the next time we want to stay. The house was perfect with we needed and including bonus beach towels, beach chairs, and a great back yard to rinse off after the beach. The neighborhood is close to the beach, quiet, and close to tons of places within walking distance for food or shopping. So very sad to leave!

This property was perfect for our family of 7. It was larger than we thought it would be. Location to the beach was a short 3-5 min walk. Location in La Jolla is close to everything. Awesome that boogie boards, chairs, toys, cooler and towels were available. Parking was good in carport. We stayed in August. The weather was perfect. It did get warm in the house. The window AC unit didn’t work well, but opening windows & running the fans helped a great deal. Mattresses weren’t great, but we would definitely stay here again.

Hope we can go there again in the future. If you like being a participant in quiet, peaceful nights, this location is for you. Convenient, property manager responsive, spacious.

Amazing location. Close walk/drive to a couple different beaches. Great neighborhood to walk around and very clean and safe. Rented a gold cart for the day from the place right next door and had a blast. Shopping and restaurants super close. Would stay again in a heartbeat.

We would definitely stay here again. Two bedroom, each with queen bed plus sleeper sofa in living room. Great deck area in rear for kids to play. Probably 10 min walk to beach. There are beach things at the house for use....boogie boards, kids sand bucket, ice chest, beach chair, etc.. which was a great touch.. Many eating places are a short walk. Sammy's Woodfired Pizza place is good. Pannikin Takeout at Pearl & Girard Street is fantastic for outdoor sitting with great coffee and the breakfast tacos are excellent. Host Kim was very responsive during our stay and answered all our questions!

This house is clean, spacious and in a fantastic location. Close to everything you need. Can’t wait to come back.

Renting this property was our best decision on our family’s trip to San Diego! It was well equipped to prepare our own meals, had great access to the beach (plus a variety of beach related necessities), and was extremely comfortable. The pristine community of La Jolla was a treat to traverse, and this property was no exception. We felt safe on the quiet street, and it was an added bonus to be able to park our car in a covered carport. We look forward to coming to stay again!

Everything exceeded our expectations.

Everything about the stay was perfect, not least of which was the hostess. She was accommodating and available to us as needed. We had six of us, 2 adults and 4, 15-16 year olds. The four of them shared a room with a queen and a pull out couch even though there was another in the living room? Kids! We used the kitchen throughout and it had just what we needed as far as plates and pots and pans. The location of this place was absolutely awesome, 5 minutes to the beach with plenty of access, and 5 minutes to downtown Lajolla and ancillary shops and restaurants were close in. LaJolla open air market is close and an amazing place to go for fresh foods, and locally made items. I also had the best ceviche there I have ever had! If you are on the fence at all about this place....BOOK IT! Just awesome all the way around.

This cute house is certainly dated and has a lot of original 1950s features but was clean, spacious enough for our family, and the location can’t be beat with close beach access. The owner was responsive to our requests and look forward to staying here again.

Awesome house!!! Amazing property located so close to the best beach in La Jolla. Everything you need for a perfect getaway. Kim is the best host!!!! Will definitely be staying here again.
