We are thrilled to have you as part of the Bluewater family! Thank you for sharing your kind words with us. It means the world to us and to our entire team! We look forward to hosting you again soon!
This is the second time in two years that we have rented this beautiful property. The owner/manager is extremely responsive, the house is immaculate, it close enough to the beach that my six and nine year-old can walk home to go to the bathroom. We are definitely renting for a third time in three years.

Thank you so much for your continued trust and kind words! We're delighted to hear you've enjoyed your stays and that the vacation home has felt like a home away from home. It's wonderful to know the location works perfectly for your family, especially with young kids. We’re already looking forward to hosting you again for your third visit next year!
When it comes to cleanliness, communication, and location- this is one of the best houses I’ve ever rented. Bravo to the owners and the management company! This property is very welcoming and unlike most rentals that are a bit stiff.

What a great house! We stayed with 8 adults to celebrate a birthday and visit our UCSD student. The fact that every bedroom had its own bathroom was amazing! The house is spacious and wonderful for gathering a large group. Beautifully clean and comfortable! Will definite look to return. Simply walk across the street for a lovely walk on the beach. A perfect stay for a large group. Also, communication was phenomenal. Thanks for everything!!

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience, Erin! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the spacious, clean, and comfortable home, perfect for celebrating with a large group. It’s fantastic to know that the private bathrooms and beachfront location added to your enjoyment. We truly appreciate your kind words about our communication as well.

The house is bigger than I expected with bathroom for every room which allowed each one of our family members to have their own space. Each room and bathroom had towels and sheets. The beds were comfortable. The house is spacious and has a beautiful view of the ocean. We enjoyed having a glass of wine on the deck at sunset. Walking distance from La Jolla shores.
The check in and communication with the management was so easy.
