Vintage “Castle” in some disrepair
We planned a family reunion almost 2 years ago. This property seemed ideal at the time despite the cost and the exchange rates. There was no barbecue of any use only a rusted out "two burner" which was not safe or clean let alone with any meaningful utility for a house that big. There were at least 3 windows that could not be closed. It rained heavily during our week and we had three leaks. The pool was great but the spa never got hot enough and stopped working properly. One toilet ran over and we were told to use the plunger which we did but the problem didn’t resolve so we used another toilet. Most of the home living area didn’t have adequate heating. We never found a kettle so we used a pot on the stove to make tea. Maybe our expections were too high. However, it is a very grand old home with lots of space which needs freshining up to match the advertisement.

Beautiful House
We are a family of 10 adults, 4 children and 1 infant. The house had plenty of space to all be together and yet spread out. The pool table was entertaining for adults and everyone enjoyed the hot tub spa and pool. The views are beautiful and the house is well equipped. We enjoyed out stay at this beautiful villa.

Fantastic place for a family reunion for families meeting for a very special get together.
The castle in the sky was a wonderful house for an amazing family reunion. We were 15 people ranging in age from 1 to 71! The house was so homely but so spacious and well equipped with every thing you could wish for! There is everything you need in the kitchen to prepare.The beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms were lovely too! The adults loved the pool table and everyone had fun in the pool and spa pool. The house is thoughtfully equipped with indoor games and lots of books plus tv in several rooms though we didn’t actually use any tv while we were there! There are swim towels and pool toys provided which was lovely as we were coming from the UK, Australia and Canada. The children loved the little go cart too. The area was gorgeous with great beaches, shops and restaurants. We didn’t actually meet our host David but he was very helpful. Thoroughly recommend this house and location!

We had a wonderful stay. The views were breathtaking and we really enjoyed the pool. We were there over the Fourth of July and were treated to a spectaular fireworks display. We loved the location of the home. We had 11 people in our family group and it was perfect for our size.

This is an amazing house. The pool and hot tub are great. It has several large meeting areas. The only suggestion would be to get better lighting.

Our Girls Annual Week!
Loved the property especially the hot tub and pool. We never eat out, we cook gourmet all week. In addition we had a Private Chef cook for us one night. The Kitchen appliances were 50/50. A fabulous 6 burner Viking Stove. The refrigerator needs replacement, even though it is high-end, (a Sub Zero), it is a much older model. It had no working ice maker and we purchased a lot of ice. Also has shallow shelving compared to (today's) Sub Zeros standards. The 2 islands and kitchen table are magnificent for a lot of cooking. There does need to be better lighting in the entire house. All rooms were very large with the most wonderful furniture pieces. (Had to photo All) The pool table got a lot of action. (Was disappointed with the BBQ. as was a very small 2 burner.) Was unable to use for 7 people. Actually thought there was to be an outdoor kitchen. We enjoyed the large porch overlooking the pool and ocean. Was fabulous for enjoying martinis at sunset. Over all it is a very beautiful home and also Very private! Hope to do it again!!! Thank you!!!

Excellent choice for special events
This villa provided a pleasant and practical base for an extended-family multi-day gathering. Very spacious both indoors and out on patios and pooldeck. Somewhat dated furnishings (though that worked well for the several elderly persons in attendance). Convenient location which provides a great view without being too difficult to get to: walking distance to downtown La Jolla and the cove, close to perfect rental.

Fabulous views and location and space
The Castle in the Sky has amazing views and a fabulous location for enjoying LaJolla and San Diego. It was great to have bathrooms for every bedroom. We loved the pool, hot tub, and pool table and had a great celebration dinner in the spacious dining room. The home is furnished with unique antique furniture. The large sectionals let our whole crew gather to watch football, though as some others have mentioned some chairs are showing their age. We also found the lighting a bit dark (for cooking), but overall loved it.

Can’t beat the view!
Dave was wonderful, accommodated our change in flights and even purchased pack n plays for our little ones! The pool, hot tub and that view, truly can’t be beat. The house was perfect for our large multi generation family, loved that the grandkids had their own space with the large open room and bedroom above the garage. We had a fabulous week in La Jolla!

Beautiful home in a lovely setting
Our family of 13 (eight adults and five children) enjoyed seven nights in this beautiful home in LaJolla to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. Dave was a great host - friendly, responsive, helpful. Views from the house and the pool are amazing overlooking the city and ocean. Great location; easy access to the beaches and stores, and to the greater San Diego area. We enjoyed the quietness and privacy of this location and property. We had more than enough space for cooking, dining, socializing, and sleeping, and enjoyed the pool, hot tub, pool table and large TV to watch World Cup soccer. A great place for a family vacation!
