This property is perfect for your stay in La Jolla. The owner was so nice and gave us a lot of recommendations! It’s a super easy walk to the coast trail, the sea lions, and tons of shopping and food and drinks. It’s so cute inside and very tranquil. We would definitely go back!

This was one of the most charming, welcoming and perfect stays I have experienced! In the perfect location. Walking distance to all shops and La Jolla Cove.

Delightful
A peaceful place to be in the craziness that is San Diego. At 70+ years of age, we were able to walk throughout the village of La Jolla but were delighted to get back to our oasis of peaceful tranquility at the casita.

PERFECT VACATION!
This gorgeous Spanish Casita was perfect for my husband and I for a romantic getaway, and to also visit our daughter who lives in Ja Jolla. It was a short walk to La Jolla Village and the stunning La Jolla Cove. The casita was spotless, stunning, and just as pictured. Location was perfect, parking was easy, and our host, Francesca was a delight! We will definitely make this one of our regular places to stay when we visit. Thank you for everything Francesca!!!

Francesca and Steve's casita amongst the gardens is a divine slice of La Jolla. I was contemplating staying on the cover or beach, and grateful to have decided on the casita instead! Francesca and Steve were generous hosts that offered fantastic recommendations, while providing a clean and comfortable home away from home. Brava!
