Hot tub was wonderful to have available.House well stocked, beds very comfortable.Weren’t sure initially about how much and what type of things were acceptable for recycling but daughter got that figured out. Neighbor hood could be noisy during the day but it was quiet during the night, enough so that we could hear the seals barking down at the cove, loved that!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautifully updated historic adobe Spanish-style home over the 4th of July weekend. The house has so much character and charm, yet it offers all the modern conveniences we needed. Nestled in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood, it was the perfect retreat after a day of exploring.The location couldn’t be better—just a short distance to La Jolla Cove, fantastic restaurants, and of course, the gorgeous La Jolla Shores beach. We especially appreciated how accessible everything was for my 75-year-old mother, who uses a cane and walker. She was able to enjoy the beach without issue, which meant a lot to our family.Overall, we highly recommend this lovely home for anyone looking to enjoy La Jolla’s charm, comfort, and convenience. We’d definitely stay again!
