Stunning home in the heart of La Jolla

This home is luxury at its finest, from the home design, to the decor, to the landscape; it is all top notch. The owner and property manager were very attentive when we reached out with a small issue. They replied within 10 minutes and a solution was in place not too long after that. Our family really enjoyed the stay and are looking forward to staying there again.

Incredible home with a perfect location!

The home is clearly loved, all the details being well-attended to. We enjoyed having real plants throughout the house, and the art is moving, thoughtful, and impressive. As a group of ten with four kids, the location--walkable to all parts of La Jolla's Cove and village helped our stay feel grounded in the gorgeous environment and relaxed in our ease of movement.

Weekend Getaway

We were on a weekend getaway trip with good friends (2 couples). The property was great! Walkable to places in La Jolla, easy to uber to other places in San Diego. Clean, and spacious property. Lots of parking in the driveway. The property managers were awesome! We were arriving early in the day and they allowed us to drop off our suitcases at the house before check in so we could walk around and grab a bite to eat. They were quick to respond. This is a great location to stay in La Jolla.

Wedding Weekend Stay

Our extended family came to La Jolla for our niece's wedding and stayed at this wonderful house. The house had plenty of room (especially for a wedding weekend when everyone was getting ready). We spent most of our time enjoying the kitchen area for breakfast and lunch and enjoying family time together. The casita provided some extra space, was very comfortable and where my wife and I stayed. The house is very centrally located in town and was within walking distance to the beach, restaurants and most of the wedding activities. We loved our stay and look forward to returning to La Jolla for a family vacation.

Excellent La Jolla Villa

I cant say enough good things about this beautiful home in La Jolla. Truly a Villa with great views and amazing furnishings. The best part was the location, as we were able to walk to coffee houses, galleries, restaurants and the La Jolla Cove to visit the seals & sea lions each morning. What a treat! The Villa has a inviting vibe with unique and delightful pieces of art & collectives.It is obvious that Michael has lived a life of adventure and color.We all had plenty of room and privacy, the bedding was elegant and comfortable & the home was fully stocked. We enjoyed this home so much! Will definitely return to La Jolla & the Villa.

Perfect Location in the Perfect House

We just returned from a wonderful trip to La Jolla. This property is ideally located in the heart of La Jolla within walking distance of everything. The bed in the primary suite is very comfortable, the kitchen is well appointed, and it is very quiet at night. Our only complaint is that the WiFi is a bit spotty. We let management know, so they should fix it for guests in the future. We wouldn't hesitate to book this property again, and I really appciated the excellent communication with the host. It's truly a five-star property!

Incredible vacation home

We were in town for a wedding with friends and were able to stay in this lovely home for a long weekend. The home is incredible - pictures do not do it justice!! All four couples in our group had plenty of space and privacy. The home was warm and inviting and had any and all amenities you could need.
