Amazing condo minutes from the beach!
The pictures don't do this place justice. It has very high-end finishes, and the furniture is all very nice and comfortable. The hosts have thought of everything, and it has a fully stocked kitchen, and beach chairs and other items available. The location is great as well, and you can easily walk to the beach to see the sea lions or one of the many nearby restaurants.

A Relaxing Stay in La Jolla!
We came to La Jolla for a 5 night stay for a wedding. This was our first time to the San Diego area and we absolutely loved where this condo was located. We were literally 5 mins from the ocean and could walk just about anywhere! The condo itself had everything! The beds were so comfy and we loved the layout of the place because the two levels made things seem more private and spacious! The property manager made a point to check in on us and ensured we had a smooth check in. We had nothing but wonderful things to say about this place and cannot wait to return and visit

Great location and service
The property was in an excellent location to take full advantage of the walkability of the La Jolla coastline and neighborhoods. Great location for families with the proximity to the La Jolla Rec Center, Tide Pools, and Children's beach. The property was furnished well (including a kitchen very well prepared for guests who love to cook), provided garage parking, and the customer support staff was always responsive and helpful. We visited with an 8-month old, and our only complaint would be that the bedroom doors were not very sound and light proof, compared to what our baby is used to.
