Guest House

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (206)
"I’ve stayed in many short-term rentals, including two similarly-priced units in nearby Del Mar. This was the best of all and in far better condition than the previous Del Mar units. It is located in a beautiful, quiet residential area yet just one short block to the beach and two blocks from La Jolla Village. The furnishings are quality and comfortable. The hosts, who live next door, are very responsive and helpful. They added a small table for dining. (I guess other guests eat out for all their...

Cozy & Charming Cottage w/ a Private Patio - Just Steps from the Beach

8.4 out of 10, Very Good, (144)
"Enjoyed property very much, its super peaceful and steps away from the beach. Only have one suggestion the plants frawns had fallen down and it was blocking pathway and a bit noisy to walk on when trying to get in and out of cottage. Neighbor was bit annoyed with us walking through because of the stepping on the plant order to get around. Other than the cottage was quite cozy comfortable and spacious for 2."

"We love coming here. We always get a room with a kitchen and it’s fully stocked with good quality kitchen wares. The beach is a like 5-10 minute walk and you can borrow beach chairs, towels, wagon, and sand toys. There’s plenty to keep us busy with the beach, pool, mini golf, gym, and arcade. There is construction going on around the property and we could hear the noise from it during the day but it wasn’t bad and it didn’t start too early. Parking is a breeze. And the price is great. I’m hoping...
