I can't say enough about our stay at this property. The location was perfect. We loved having access to a grill, beach chairs, umbrella, cooler and boogie board. This was one of my favorite rentals of all time.
We fell in love the moment we walked in the door! Perfect for two people. We stayed for two weeks. We were able to walk to the beach every day sometimes twice. It’s a three minute walk. So beautiful! The kitchen was the perfect size, we cooked and ate in quite a few times. There is a little dishwasher, which was very helpful. They have a few different ways to brew coffee. The bed was very comfortable. Lots of pillows, including a memory foam in the closet. Laundry on site, outside. Very helpful! We use the outdoor shower after the beach. Indoor, the bathroom, shower and vanity set up is very nice! There is a book with lots of recommendations of things to do, places to eat, etc. We loved Carolines Seaside Café down by La Jolla Shores. We walked a lot, very nice area We recommend this place so much, and I hope we will be able to go back someday!
What a great little place, tucked in the back of the property, so no road noise. A short walk to the Ocean, with great views. This place was comfortable, clean and definitely had the vibe of a surf shack.
Loved every moment of our stay. Our bungalow was perfect! Perfect size for two and had everything we needed. The location was amazing and so beautiful. We even got to meet the owner of the property and he was so welcoming and great to talk with. Highly recommend to everyone. Can’t wait to book again!

it wasn't the stray it was the company I rented from. I had an emergency and could not go on my trip and i lost all the money i paid to rent this unit. So before you rent from this company made darn sure your plans don't change.
This was a fantastic location, in terms of accessing Torrey Pines, as well as highlights of San Diego. La Jolla did not disappoint and the accommodations along with local businesses made the stay a wonderful spot.
Beautiful, immaculate, charming bungalow, in a perfect location, two blocks from beach, with walking distance to shopping, coffee shops and restaurants.
Owner very friendly and accessible!
Would absolutely stay there again!
The bungalow was just the right size for us and tucked away so it was quiet and away from the crowds- which is our preference. Karl was very friendly and helpful with excellent restaurant recommendations. We were extremely happy with the proximity to the beach and everything about our stay. We didn’t want to leave!
Nice clean place in a great location. Perfect for a two or three night trip. Excellent communication, smooth check in. Bungalow was just as advertised. Would happily stay here again.
Incredibly cute and comfortable cottage - location, location, location!
My partner and I enjoyed a delayed honeymoon here. All amenities were as described. The hosts were welcoming, friendly, and respectful of privacy. Windansea Beach is a few minutes walk, with amazing views. Nighttime sleep is accompanied by waves sounds and little else. An absolute gem and excellent value. Thank you!
Cottage is very well outfitted with everything we needed and seems brand new inside. Location is excellent, half a block walk down to the beautiful ‘Windansea’ beach. Restaurants and coffee shops within walking distance also.
Bikes and surfboards in picture belong to neighbor but there are beach chairs, umbrellas and boogie board available.
Hope to stay again
What a sweet little property! No AC in the unit, but plenty of shade, windows, and a super-powerful fan in the main room. My friend and I celebrated her birthday with sleeping in under the marine layer, reading and yoga-ing on the brick patio, and daily walks on the beach. We saw sea lions, pelicans, and bush squirrels. We did a lot of slowing down and this rental was the best possible "frame" to the weekend. Thank you!
Absolutely perfect location. Steps to the beach. Easy walk to food, coffee, shopping. But really, the ocean is the draw. Friendly host. Everything you need is present. Comfy beach chairs and umbrellas. Tastefully decorated, space best suited for a couple. We will be back.
The cottage was sparkling clean and very quiet. Nicely equipped mini kitchen. I felt like I was one of the first to stay there and really enjoyed morning coffee and afternoon wine on my patio. Minor concerns- there was no table/chairs, the end tables were not handy to eat from; I don't think I liked not being contacted by agency to check on me. The contactless check in was too impersonal for this old lady and would have appreciated more info on the TV, I am in my 80's and not tech savvy. Despite these concerns, I would recommended it to my single/widowed friends and would like to come again.
The property was perfectly advertised, the check in process was seamless, the rental group provided everything we needed, 3 minute walk from the beach and walkable to downtown area, this was a great place. Hope to return in the next couple years
