PRIVATE LA PLAYA BEACH/SPACIOUS 1300 SQ FT VACATION IN POINT LOMA SHELTER ISLAND

My husband and I are retired and wanted to spend the winter in Point Loma near our son and his family. This condo is perfect. Not too big but big enough to feel spacious. The rooms are all large with high ceilings. The furnishings are comfortable and really appreciated the king bed with a foam mattress as I have a tempurpedic at home. Leticia and Hector (owners) are responsive and easily available. The bay is only one block down a hill with a beautiful walking trail along the water. San Diego is truly a paradise. My only complaint is the traffic noise (as other reviewers have noted). The condo is street side and close to the navy base so in the early morning hours, there are a lot of cars. It took us about 1-2 weeks to get used to it-then we were fine. I definite recommend LaPlaya condo.

Overall good accommodations, this street is the main entrance to the Base therefore a lot of vehicle noise in the AM and PM. Unit was clean with everything you need, probably return again.

La Playa was the perfect place for our month of January in San Diego. Our daughter lives in Hillcrest and we wanted to escape winter in the Midwest. This condo in Point Loma was great. We really enjoyed the location with the beautiful beach walk to coffee or dinner in La Playa. The condo was well apportioned. The beds were comfortable, the master bath spacious, and very functional kitchen and a good living space. Of note, bring an HDMI cord to connect your laptop with the TV for streaming services. It was easy to get to Sunset Beach, Mission Bay, Liberty Station, Downtown and Balboa Park from the condo. We utilized on-street parking for our comings and goings during the day, and dedicated parking spot under the building for overnight. The views of Shelter Island and downtown San Diego from Kellogg Beach at the end of the street were fantastic. We did experience some street noise from vehicles entering the navy yard, but the condo supplies a white noise machine, so not a big deal. Also, the condo's outdoor space is not really functional, but San Diego has a plethora of outdoor spots. Finally, Leticia and Hector responded immediately to all of our questions and any issue that arose. They are great hosts.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in La Playa! The condo has everything you need for a short or longer term stay. We couldn't have asked for a better location - it is close to everything you could want or need. Leticia is a wonderful host, very responsive and attentive. We walked everyday on the path next to the harbor in to town for coffee and several times for lunch and dinner. There is a swimming beach at the end of the block, which is very convenient, and it's within a ten minute drive to OB if you want surfing or a larger beach. We were in San Diego for three months for my job, and commuting to my office downtown was a breeze. We couldn't have asked for a better location for our stay, and the condo was well stocked with every amenity that we could ask for!

Loved the beach. Quiet space.

Wonderful.

We enjoyed all aspects of this VRBO. The condo is well equipped, the proximity to the beach is ideal and the walking paths are wonderful. However, the condo is on a busy street which tends to be noisy during certain times of the day.

Spacious with everything needed to feel right at home. Owner very accommodating; good communication. Very much enjoyed my month - ready to do it again next year!

Lovely Condo with garage and also lots of free parking all through the La Playa area. Car or Uber needed to enjoy Downtown San Diego but this place is a great home base to do this. We spent lots of time on the cute bay beach and walked many times on the bay sand path to stores on La Playa and also walked to Shelter Island with its wonderful views. Don't miss the USS Midway tour and Cabrillo National Park, they are simply unforgettable.

We thoroughly enjoyed our June/July 2018 stay at Leticia's condo. The location is extraordinary -- just a block from an extremely family-friendly neighborhood beach next to Shelter Island. The Point Loma neighborhood is about a mile from its village center with plenty of restaurants, cafes and small retail shops. There is a LOVELY walking path accessible from the beach which runs along the bay/marina all the way into the village. The first floor condo is very tastefully decorated -- all mid/high end quality-- fully equipped with great appliances, furniture and all needed (and more) items. The bedrooms and living room do face a fairly busy street which is a bit noisy in the mornings and evenings - but manageable. The building itself is of high quality with quiet, friendly neighbors. Parking space is easy both on the street and in the private garage. Kids loved to take out the kayak and other beach equipment. Leticia was an excellent host -- kind and very attentive to any request. I would definitely recommend this option and would happily return there in the future! Great value!
