La Jolla Cottage by the Sea
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (85)
"Situated in a quiet neighborhood but within walking distance of coffee shops, restaurants, and the ocean, the cottage offered a perfect balance of comfort, privacy and convenience. The bed was very comfortable and I enjoyed being able to read, write, and bird watch on the private balcony that overlooks a tranquil garden. On-street parking was readily available anytime of day and check-in/check-out was easy as pie. Many thanks to Mark and Marty for being excellent hosts! Hope to see you again...

9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (82)
"This was one of the coolest places we have stayed. The location and view was perfect for our trip. We walked along the coast every morning to see the seals, sea lions and birds. It has an unobstructed view of the sunset from the balcony. Bathroom was huge! Tub and shower very nice. We were pleased. Stairs are not as bad as the look. You basically see all that are there - looks intimidating but it’s not. Very quiet area but close to everything at the same time. We hated to leave. Don’t hesitate...

Kitchen has most of basic needs for a small family. Kids bed arrangement best for small children - our 7 year old was able to use - our older children used the couch to sleep at night. Huge washer and dryer - a delight for road trips! Really appreciated supply of laundry and kitchen detergents - sufficient to get...

"We recently stayed at the cottage for a wedding. We had our adult children and another guest. The house was a comfortable size and the location was perfect. We could go for walks to the beach, walk into town and on Sunday there was a local farmers market that we walked to! The beds are comfy and for the most part the house was clean. As stated in other reviews, you may want to bring slippers or flip flops as the floors are old and leave your feet a bit dirty. When we arrived the mirror in the...

La Jolla Shores home with ocean view, private hot tub, gas fireplace & gas grill
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (161)
"Overall this was a very nice older home in an upscale neighborhood. Location was amazing! Very quiet and peaceful. Great patio area for people watching in the front facing the beach and a large area in the back yard with a hot tub. Short walk to La Jolla Beach and walkable to the town (1.7 miles). Too many fees added to the price made it expensive. The place was clean, but there were some small details that showed the age. Everything worked that we used so no complaints about that."
