You won’t be disappointed with this stunning home on the sea. Everything you need is right here:Gorgeous king size bedroom with panoramic view of ocean;Stunning views from first floor looking over the lawn down below;A beautiful patio just outside the door - the views of the ocean and beach are magazine worthy;A staircase descends to a magical space with an oversized lounge hut (with hammock), a dining table, outdoor kitchen and grill and ample lawn chairs. A key opens the gate to stairs that take you to a wooden platform Ed patio that’s literally looking over the beach. From there, you can pass through a green door to the beach itself. It’s a wonderland of nature - cormorants, pelicans and seagulls fly overhead all day and into the evening. My small puppy loved exploring the beach and playing frisbee on the lawn above. Truly spectacular. Properties like this are one-in-a-million. The neighborhood is gorgeous and if you turn left when you walk out onto Camino de la Costa, walk down to Pamona Street and there’s a beautiful beach there. I’d suggest renting a bike at California Bike in La Jolla (north of the Villa). Ask for Jason. Then bike all along the shore and up and down the beautiful streets with vintage bungalows and Star Jasmine blooming everywhere. A bike ride to Pacific Beach south of the villa takes about 30 minutes.Our favorite neighborhood was Bird Walk, a 15 minute walk from the villa.

The property is a clear 5. Truly amazing. There are however some things the owners could do to improve the overall experience (especially at this price point. The windows upstairs are filthy between the glass (still a great view but they need to replace these) and the fire place was out of service. Most important they need to add a handrail to get in and out of the shower (it is two steps down into a deep tub and the only thing to hold on to is the shower door which swings open) - scary experience getting in and out!! Additionally it would be nice to have a few extra towels (we did find one in the closet) and a Kleenex box.

Tranquil, clean, very pet friendly, safe.

Absolutely wonderful stay! Everything was perfect-beautiful sunsets, relaxing sauna felt like we were staying at a spa, amazing ocean views from both floors, walks on the beach, welcoming host, clean and stocked home, bottle of wine on arrival. We didn’t want to leave and will definitely be back.
