SD Writer's Pad ~ KILLER location near La Jolla, PB, Downtown ~ walk to Trolley!

This sunny condo is close to EVERYTHING.. The bay, beach, Downtown! PB just down the hill, La Jolla (one exit away), Sea World, Old Town and Downtown Gas Lamp District just minutes away. Walk to the Trolley Station… Huge windows in living room, balcony. Flatscreen smart T.V.'s in every room. Fast Wifi, cable, gorgeous kitchen w/granite bar.. Swimming pool, huge jacuzzi. BBQ’s - deck areas… Newly remodeled, beautiful furnishings. Comfy beds; high end mattresses, luxury linens! Fully appointed kitchen with spices, cooking oils and bar ware. Walk to restaurants/bars, sushi bar, brewery, liquor store & dry-cleaners; all just around the corner.
As condos go, it is excellent... only one common wall on the North side... quiet neighbors. It is an amazing location as it is super close to the freeway and though you are right there above Pacific Beach, you don't have to be 'stuck' trying to get in and out of beach traffic in summer. La Jolla is just one exit away on the freeway and all of the most popular beaches and attractions are an easy and quick ride. That way you can Uber down into PB or La Jolla or downtown for super cheap if you want to have cocktails!
The condo is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with WiFi. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a coffee maker.

Wonderful Stay

We had a nice time visiting San Diego with this as our home base. Locate close enough to everything that we could visit the city, south to the border, north into Carlsbad and beyond and east to the desert and Julian in the mountains. The condo had all we needed for a relaxing week. We all agreed we would definity stay again.

Great DIY Writing Retreat Location

This place really fit our requirements. It was clean and well appointed. The owner was helpful and information. Two small reasons why it isn't getting a 5. You need a car. It's not as central as I would have liked and the neighborhood isn't walkable. Also, no laundry in the unit itself (which was a surprise). We'd book it again.

Comfortable & Great Holiday Stay

We had a great time staying here as a family over the holidays. The location was great as it was close to many of the places we wanted to visit. Lacy was very humble and welcoming before, during and after our visit. We would highly recommend the property and of course Lacy! We look forward to recommending and hopefully visiting The Writers Pad San Diego again.

Another Great Stay!

Our family of four spent 2 wonderful weeks feeling right at home at the Writer’s Pad. We found Lacy’s condo to be so spectacular that this was a return visit! The Writer’s Pad is a clean, updated and quiet condo that has everything from a fully stocked kitchen with newer appliances, comfortable beds, plenty of high quality linens and towels and easy access to laundry facilities, propane BBQ’s and the large outdoor pool and Jacuzzi. The condo features three flatscreen tv’s, fast WiFi, fans for warmer days and plenty of room to relax both inside and outside on the balcony. Owner Lacy made our late arrival check-in a breeze and made sure to leave some much needed beverages and snacks after a long drive. She also left us with a few dates and locations of some fun local attractions to make our stay even more enjoyable. Thank you Lacy for being a wonderful host with attentive and quick communication before, during and after our stay!

Writers pad stay

Our experience at this property for our Family vacation was wonderful. The location of the condo was perfect -short drive to shopping, restaurants and beaches. The condo itself was clean, and plenty of room for our family of 4. Laundry facilities and access to pool and jacuzzi was a bonus. Lacy was a gracious host and communicated with us before and during our stay. I would not hesitate to rent again if we return to the area.

A great place to get away!!

My family has stayed at a lot of places, and this one took one of the top favorites. Just perfect for our family and only a short drive to the beach. I communicated with the owner prior to and it was everything (and more) that she promised. Clean, comfy, and she even had 'treats' available. Some places we've gone, they had very little in way of 'supplies', but it had everything and more! The owner defiantly knew how to take care of her renters!! I would highly recommend it to any couple or family with a few kids.

Comfortable place in a convenient location

We stayed here for one week in April while exploring SD and surrounding area. The directions to the place were clear, and the keys were waiting with some instructions. The kitchen had everything we needed. We enjoyed the shared jacuzzi multiple nights. WiFi worked well..multiple TVs were present and seemed to work well (we ended up not watching anything beyond 5 minutes of local news). The owner was responsive to our questions. Overall a good experience.

Wonderful stay

We spent three months at The Writer’s Pad. I highly recommends this as your “home away from home” when visiting San Diego. The location of the condo is perfect and it convenient to all the major tourist areas. In addition, the neighborhood of Bay Ho offers some good dining options with a less touristy feel for a nice alternative. The condo itself is very quiet and relaxing, The beds and sofa are extremely comfortable. The kitchen Is well equipped with anything you might need. Lacy is a responsive and accommodating host. I highly recommend this spot and look forward to a return visit in the future.
