About this property

Beach Property at Beautiful Sunset

This is one truly adorable guest home that you will not want to miss. It is a block away from the breathtaking beach. Perfectly located 1/2 a mile between the famous Wind n Sea Beach and La Jolla Cove. Come park your car and never have to get back in it! Conveniently located on the Bike Path, great for walks or jogging. A short 1/2 mile from Village for shopping, restaurants, coffee shops and grocery stores. The home has been completely remodeled, flat screen TV in the living area and bedroom, a queen size Tempur-Pedic bed, bamboo wood floors in the kitchen and living space, out door heated shower to wash off at when coming back from the beach, washer and dryer and private entrance...No expense was spared. If you want to experience La Jolla this is the place for you.

We absolutely loved our stay and thankful to be so close to the beach! Literally a 2 minute walk for toes in the sand. We parked our Jeep and were able to walk the entire town the whole time we were there. The guest house was very clean and well appointed with everything we needed to make meals when we didn’t feel like going out. WiFi worked great and the house was clean as could be.

John’s beach house in La Jolla is probably the best rental house I’ve ever stayed in. It’s beautiful and equipped with everything you need for your stay. The views from the front porch are phenomenal, and the beach is just steps away. The neighborhood is quiet and safe, and I was able to walk everywhere as I was traveling without a car. I hope to come back again in the future!

This is my 2nd time staying at John and Katie’s adorable cottage. The location is amazing just steps from the beach and the most beautiful sunsets. John greets you and is the most welcoming kind host. The neighborhood is quiet yet walkable to everything you need. And the cottage is adorable, comfortable with everything you need to make dinner and stay in, relax outside on the patio or go for a walk and enjoy everything La Jolla has to offer.
