Francesca was extremely warm and friendly. She even helped me locate an umbrella when I desperately needed one! The property is super nice, comfortable, well maintained, and one of the nicest I’ve stayed at. Loved it. Bed was very comfortable.

We used to live in SD. This was a vacation with catching up with old friends. The location is excellent to walk to wonderful spots in La Jolla and cafes and restaurants. The freeway is also fairly close. Francesca is super friendly and available to point out things to do and make sure that you are comfortable! Definitely saved in our address book for future stays!

Our stay at this casita was absolutely perfect! It was spotless, cozy, and ideal for a couple’s getaway. The location couldn’t have been better, just minutes from the beach, great restaurants, coffee spots, and even hiking trails. Francesca was an amazing host and gave us the best local tips to make our trip even better. We can’t wait to come back!

This Casita was in the perfect location for food, coffee shops, beaches, etc. Very walkable and never needed our rental car exploring in La Jolla! There is also a grocery store blocks away that we would walk to for any last minute needs. 10/10 would recommend to all family and friends visiting this area.
