This was a fabulous VRBO! Very clean, cozy and well equipped with an easy check in/out process. Location is perfect (close to windansea surfing and La Jolla, Birdrock neighborhoods). Both the owner and property manager were in touch throughout the stay.

This was a very nice, light and airy rental with a private, cute tropical-themed courtyard. The walk to the beach was only 5 minutes tops. I would take my coffee down there in the morning and meditate to the waves crashing in. Very convenient to San Diego sights, seal beach, Mt. Soledad, etc. My only suggestion would be to have a code for check-in to facilitate the process. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone staying in the San Diego/ La Jolla area!

We were very happy to have a quick walk to the beach at sunset. And, we frequently walked to La Jolla Cove to the north and Bird Rock area to the south. The furnishings are fine and the skylights in the master bedroom are marvelous, especially on a warm day because they open for ventilation. The private, locked entrance is greatly appreciated as is the dedicated parking. All in all the price is fair.

The property is nice and only a 1/2 block from the beach, but it's a bit worn. A cute courtyard. The bed was very comfortable in a large bedroom. The kitchen and bath work, but are original to the structure and could use an updating. We had a problem working the living room TV. (Only could get LG programming). Aside from these minor issues, we really enjoyed our stay.

My husband and I loved staying in this bright, clean, comfortable place. The casita had everything we needed and wanted for our stay. The outdoor space is perfect for enjoying San Diego weather and the location is perfect for a quick beach walk or a day at the beach. The pictures on the listing are just what it looks like. We enjoy walking, so a walk to the "Children's Pool" to see the seals or to the retail area of La Jolla (we especially like Warwick's) or to Bird Rock were fun. Communication with the owner and property manager was quick and easy. Definitely 5 star.

If you love the beach, marine life, great restaurants, and a beautiful walking neighborhood, this is the place for you! You can hear the surf while enjoying coffee on the patio in the morning, and the incredible sunset each night at the beach just two blocks away. The seals, seabirds, sufers, and La Jolla's many beaches are all nearby. The cottage is spacious for two people, or a small family. Many amenities are provided, including a stocked kitchen, soaps/lotion, beach supplies, bikes, a good parking spot right outside, and a welcoming property manager. The furniture and bed are comfortable and the area is very quiet. We look forward to returning!

Wonderful neighborhood, as quiet as can be, but just steps from La Jolla Blvd. and steps in the other direction to Windansea Beach. The property was meticulously clean, and the linens top - notch. The rooms were all much larger than they appear in the listing. A real wonderful base for exploring the area.

Our family of 4 loved this rental. The place had everything we needed, including sand castle equipment for our toddler. With 2 adults, 1 teen, and a toddler, we had just the right amount of space and didn't feel crowded. Communication with the property manager was spot on. We loved that we could take a short walk to the beach. Looking forward to a future visit.

Beautiful, safe vacation cottage
We had concerns about the safety of taking a vacation during the COVID-19 pandemic, but the Lovely Beach Cottage turned out to be the ideal place. It was very clean, quiet, comfortable and airy; we kept the windows and French doors open and ceiling fans on so there was plenty of air circulation and no need for A/C. We able to avoid crowds and never had to enter any other buildings during our stay. Catherine, the property manager, thoroughly answered all our questions and concerns before we arrived, and we felt very safe the entire time we were there. We brought our own food and took advantage of the well-equipped kitchen to prepare all our meals. We enjoyed walking on the uncrowded Windansea Beach as well as reading and people-watching while relaxing on the beach chairs and umbrella that were provided. We had fun taking long walks on the nearby scenic Fay Avenue biking/walking trail. We especially liked spending time enjoying the fabulous La Jolla summer weather outdoors on the small patio filled with beautiful tropical plants and flowers.

Perfect for two
We loved our stay here! It was exactly as the pictures and description showed, and the perfect size for me and my husband. Very private, yet close to the beach and restaurants. Easy walk to downtown La Jolla. The only suggestion I'd give is to have a few games (cards, dominoes, etc.) available as there was only chess, and possibly Netflix as an option. The house had beach chairs, umbrella and towels available for use. We would definitely stay here again!

Great place close to the beach
What a great place to stay for us while we were in the San Diego area. La Jolla is a great little town and the Beach Barber has everything we needed for our stay. We rode the bikes that were provided to the farmers market, could walk to dinner and shopping, and the tavern around the corner was a great place to catch a drink at night. We had one minor issue and it was addressed immediately. Cathleen, the property manager, is super responsive and great to deal with. Overall we really enjoyed our time!
