Great little spot! The space was clean and perfect for two weeks close to the beach. Parking was easy and you are a block from the beach. My only reminder for travelers is most properties in So-Cal don't have AC, including this one. It is tucked away for privacy but doesn't get a breeze. Tons of fans provided, but a reminder that it can get warm. Recommend staying here!

The wind and sea area is lovely. This place is a block from the beach with surfing nearby. The place is smaller than it looks on line but totally serviceable. We really appreciated the Landry and all the restaurants and the walk ability of La Jolla.

Great private place with easy beach walk.

My wife and I had a very enjoyable stay. Easy walk to the beach and to many eating options. Short drive to the La Jolla Village and many eating and shopping options. The nearby beach is dramatic and beautiful. This cottage had everything we needed.

German Sheperd lives above this unit and eats dog bones that is extremely loud. The owners charged me an additional 120 for 2nd cleaning that I just found out that I was not obliged to pay per VRBO! The unit's location was truly 1 block from the beach. But there is construction right across the street that is not conducive to serenity. The parking is not always available. For the price, I would not recommend this place!

We are very upfront about requiring mid stay cleanings every 10 days for longer stays, and we even pay for one mid stay cleaning per month ourselves. Not sure why this guest acted surprised after checking out as she was fully informed of our policy upon booking. La Jolla is an urban beach community and there is sometimes construction in the area, but only during strict daytime hours. There is ample street parking with no permit restrictions and easy to find a spot in front or within 1/2 block of the studio.

Nice place

We enjoyed our visit to beachcomber hideaway. Convenient location with parking on the street. The unit is clean and well maintained. The beach is a short walk but we found having a car is best for all the sights and activities that are in the area.

Being our 1st time doing STR I was very pleased with everything. Easy entry instructions .. Parking was pretty good (construction going on) . Easy access to the beach. Loved my early & late walks along the beach with my dog. (oh yeah, Pet Friendly too) .. the only thing missing was (maybe) a hook in the bedroom. Kinda tight in there.Definitely looking forward to another visit.

We enjoyed being able to walk to the beach multiple times each day, and having stores and restaurants close was a plus. Comfortable, well equipped and clean. I would recommend this property.

Amazing location

The location is great and the apartment is perfect for 1-2 people. The only thing I would improve is that some items like the laundry basket or kitchen utensils should be replaced. It is well equipped with cookware and silverware.

Wonderful location

This property is located in a beautiful neighborhood 1 block from the fabulous Windansea Beach. The apartment made very good use of the square footage and was roomy enough for our needs. The back patio added to the feeling of space. Nice remodel, comfortable bed. 2 of us stayed there 2 weeks and would stay there again. The only negative aspect is entering the building you walk through the trash can alley to get to the door. But we always felt safe and enjoyed coming ‘home’ to the cozy apartment.

A Whisper Away From the Beach

The location makes this place worth it, no question. It's just up the hill from Windansea Beach, so you can dart down to stroll, scramble over the rocks, set out your towel or watch pelicans. It is small (*really* small on rainy days!) and the kitchen fixings are very basic. The neighborhood has largely kept its charm, but there is lots of new construction (which, alas, could be loud.) Really glad we chose this overall.

We're so glad you loved the location of the studio! The kitchen has all the "fixing's" including multiple small appliances so that you can cook up a chef's feast, dishes, flatware, glassware, pots, pans, utensils, etc. etc. The size of the studio is larger than a standard hotel room, but it has a separate bedroom.

We're sorry that your husband has a bad back. Our property size is described and while small, is laid out very cleverly so that you have everything (and feels larger than it is) you need, as well as a separate bedroom and a nicely sized private patio, all 1.25 blocks from beautiful Wind n Sea beach.

Experience

The suite is at a fantastic location. 1 block from the beach. You can walk to shops, restaurants and grocery stores within 20 -30 min. The suite is in a great neighborhood and felt very safe when out walking. We used Uber to get around. The suite is a bit old with an updated bathroom but overall a great place and i would definitely come back again. Pictures are accurate. Owners replied quickly with any questions. Thankyou for the great time we had.

Wind and Sea

Small but ok for a week! Entrance not very nice as you go past several garbage cans. Some things that should be addressed are as follows. Both chairs on the patio have broken seats! Beach chairs are rusty and very dirty. Front of the sink in the kitchen is peeling and needs repair. It could be a nice spot as the location is great. Just needs some attention to detail.
