Wonderful time at La Jolla Shores
Our family of four loved our stay here- our first time in the area. The cottage is very clean and comfortable and a great layout- a little oasis. We walked to the beach, kayaking and surfing. Marilyn is a responsive and helpful host. We’re already planning when we’ll come back!

Peaceful, lovely cottage, steps to the beach and all you need
Our second stay in the twin/sister cottages (now been in both). Wonderful cottage with a very private patio to dine, and another separate larger patio accessible from all the rooms with chaise lounges, firepit, BBQ and sitting area. A hummingbird's delight. Tasteful and whimsical decorating both inside and out. Well equipped and furnished, very clean and quiet. Steps to beach, coffee, restaurants. Enjoy!

La Jolla Shores gem
Everything about this cottage was perfect - the indoor and outdoor layout, the amenities, the location and Marilyn, the host, were all top class. As a family of 4 we really enjoyed the separate internal and external living areas, we loved wandering through La Jolla Shores to the beach and we loved the many great restaurants within a few minutes walk. Most of all we loved returning to the peace and privacy of the pretty walled yard with its water features and fire pit. This was our second attempt at booking the property and Marilyn was a most generous host. If you're planning a stay in the La Jolla area, don't look any further than here. We really did not want to leave!

Beach Vacation
My husband and I stayed with our adult daughter for a few days over Christmas. The house worked perfectly for us - so close to the beach and restaurants. The courtyard was a lovely bonus for sunning, reading or sitting by the fire pit. Highly recommend.
