The Shangri-La of La Jolla

Great location and has potential to be much better, but as others noted it is not as well maintained as it could be with lots of cheaper furniture and accessories (coffee table seemed like it might fall over). Also, our first night one bed frame broke (cheap particle board) and in the morning I made coffee and the coffee machine was broken, and it leaked all over the counter and floor before I saw it. Tough start to the weekend trip, but I will say the property management team was friendly and very helpful, they got us a new coffee machine and fixed the bedframe the same day (Saturday). Sadly, no offer to reduce the rate after all of that. If you don't expect too much, it is in a great location, was stocked with what is needed, good parking, and does the job.

Kitchen lacking adiquate cooking tools and kid gate was broken. Too many mirrors placed so it looked bigger than it was...deception!

Overall, very pleased. Short walk to the Ocean and a number of nice restaurants. Short drive to the Cove. Clean and comfortable.

The house was in a great area of La Jolla. Check in and check out were easy and the house was clean. The only issue was the interior carpet, the furniture and the blinds really need updating. You could tell it was cleaned well, but it still felt dirty because the carpet was old and stained and the chair and couch in the family room were really old. The blinds were hard to work.

It is super close to the heart of LaJolla and you can walk everywhere!

Great location.

Our stay was lovely. We were all comfortable and the location was fantastic. It was very clean which allowed us to relax. The location allowed for easy walks to the beach and restaurants. Would definitely stay here again.

Great property and location. Great restaurants nearby and central location to do day trips and make lasting memories with family. The short walk to the beach was a highlight.

bad weather but had fun anyway

Spacious house. Perfect for a trip with our adult children. So much to do within walking distance or a short drive away.

The location is wonderful, quiet and safe. It was easy to check in and check out. It was great to have parking spots as well. The rooms and space are as advertised. There were plenty of towels and paper towels. However, the house is in need of major renovations. Everything is pretty dated and used. It was clean but the rugs are very old and many of the shades on the windows don’t work properly. The primary bedroom is pretty bright so if you’re sensitive to light you should bring an eye mask. The shower in the primary bedroom hardly works - we were glad to have another shower to use. The shampoo and conditioner provided were travel size and I’d recommend bringing extra depending on how long you’ll be staying. The kitchen has pots and pans and utensils but not much else. The knives are usable but dull. There are no essentials like salt, pepper or olive oil. There was soap and a sponge, as well as dishwashing pods but it would have been nice to have some other cleaning supplies to wipe counters and the outdoor table. Two of the burners on the barbecue weren’t working. We used the oven and it worked fine after we figured out how to use it - it wasn’t very intuitive. We didn’t use the stovetop so I’m not sure if that functions properly. We’ve stayed in several rental homes in the area and since this one is very dated the pricing is fair. It was comfortable and we stayed 4 nights, but if we were staying longer we might look elsewhere.

Wonderful location in a peaceful neighborhood! Yummy selection of restaurants within walking distance of this property. Needs new furnishings throughout, especially family room! One small sofa is not enough! Four adults cannot relax comfortably! Not much more that caught us off guard.
