Great Beach House/ Parking/Walk to Shores

We stayed here with 2 young kids for 5 nights. PROS: 1. The location is good, just a few blocks to the beach, a little market and the restaurant strip. 2. There’s a nice big wagon and lots of beach toys, as well as bicycles. CONS: 1. The road beside the backyard is quite busy these days and can be loud if you’re out enjoying the yard. An ambulance even went by one day and woke up my toddler from his nap. 2. He slept in the garage area, which has no window coverings (so we brought our own, but still had to makeshift it to get darkness). 3. Our 4 year old slept in the room with the bed against the wall, but its window coverings still let a ton of light in. We also didn’t like the fact that there’s a door to the outside in that bedroom. 4. The faucet in the bathtub was very calcified, and there wasn’t any shampoo, conditioner or body wash/soap. 5. We asked prior to arrival if there was a pack ‘n play available and they said yes, and that they’d drop it off before we check-in. It was not there, so we contacted them again and they apologized and finally dropped it off at 8:30pm. Good thing my cousins had an extra one at their place, because my son’s bedtime is 7:30pm. 6. There was no coffee pot, so we contacted the rental co. about it and they said they’d bring one shortly, which never arrived. They also said to go buy a brewed coffee and they’d credit us, which hasn’t happened yet. 7. There was no toaster.

Wonderful house and location

It’s hard to pick what stood out the most. Wonderful house close to a stunning beach and many fine restaurants within walking distance. We had a great time. This VRBO exceeded our expectations. Thanks for a great time in La Jolla.

The home was very clean and was in a great location!

The stay here was a little rough... Let's start with the Pros:- 2 blocks from La Jolla Shores--great location- Pet friendly with awesome yard for the dogs to run around- Lots of rooms and price isn't badCons...Make sure you read the description...this spot does NOT have air conditioning. I missed this in the description, and since we stayed in September it was extremely hot and humid. Even with all the windows open at night, the house does not get anywhere close to cool (and you have to leave everything open which means noise and risk of break in). I couldn't sleep at all with how hot it was. I definitely wouldn't stay here between May and November...it might be fine between November and April.We had a major issue with the plumbing. It didn't work well to start, but in the middle of the stay the sewage started backing up, spewing water, sand, and more into the house through the bathtub, toilet, etc. This just happened to be on our wedding day...which was awesome. The property managers handled it decently well and quickly, sending a plumber immediately and cleaner eventually...but it meant we basically lost access to the house for a whole day (again our wedding day...)...so we had to scramble to find a place to shower, get ready, etc (the property manager did offer some options but they weren't good ones).

Great stay

The house was lovely! It was very easy to communicate with the owner. It was amazing to be so close to the beach and have access to all the beach gear, like boogie boards, wagon, beach bikes,etc. The only suggestion I have is to improve the smart tv access. One of the tv's was not working properly. Otherwise, amazing stay!! Highly recommend!!

Great location. Short walk to the beach.

The check in process was very easy and had great communication throughout stay.The location was perfect with shops, food, and beach minutes away. Very peaceful neighborhood! bikes/seats need some TLC.

Perfection location to the beach and to nice little shops and restaurants! The house was clean, and very cute. Yard was nice!

This place is great spot to spend a week - perfect location for everything San Diego has to offer - La Jolla beach is so close and little beach town 5 minute walk. House itself was generally nice - master comfy bed and nice room. Kitchen good, hang out area good. Host super responsive. Only dings were back yard hang area was real beat up - rusty and cob webs on chairs, bikes were rusted out and unusable, beach chairs kinda gross.

Wonderful home for our family beach vacation. Two blocks to the Shores!

Close to many things, and easy walk to the beach. The interior (floors, carpets, trim) are showing a lot of wear and should be refreshed.

There are two reasons to stay here: first, location. it’s a five-minute walk to the beach, and about the same to the local restaurants. Second, the yard is totally enclosed, so it’s great for a pet. Our second time here!

Wonderful experience right from our first inquiry through booking, easy checkin process and clear speedy communication with our host was easy! Great space and everything was spot on as per listing pics and detailed description. Traveling as a couple but with LOTS of gear (bikes, golf clubs), the layout of this property provided ample space for our needs and we were able to really relax and settle in for our longer stay. Home was exceptionally stocked with anything and everything we might need to feel right at home and make best use of it. Master was very comfy and pressure/temps in the shower was excellent. We did not use the bbq provided during our stay but we did make great use of the beach gear provided…such a bonus! The outdoor space is very secure and even the front deck is quite private for morning coffee and lazy afternoons. The LOCATION was second to none, as being so close to the beach was just fantastic…we would definitely stay here again!

Great house with great location. Very clean, bright and modern decor. We loved our stay and will book again the next time we return to San Diego.

I stayed at the property with my wife, 2 infants and small dog and we loved it. The place was well stocked and had a lot of cool stuff for the beach. Staff was responsive and really helpful.

This property was amazing. We will for sure return!
