This historic property (site of the La Jolla/Pacific Beach Electric Railway in the early 20th century) is surrounded by six acres of permanent open space. The property fronts on a paved path for bicycling and walking, so there is no street noise. Guests have their own private spacious covered patio with an outdoor dining table and chairs as well as a cushioned chaise lounge, softly lit for evening relaxation. Just a few steps up from the patio is a hot tub for two under a custom-designed redwood enclosure with tiny lights, equipped with two soft terry robes and beach towels. A classic double hammock provides a peaceful, relaxing experience.An outdoor fountain offers a serene background soundscape.

The property is on a gentle slope. Guests enter through a short private path. Spend time on another short path up the hill to a secluded platform and bench with an ocean view. At the base of the property, there is an alcove in the foliage with two adirondack chairs and a small table, perfect for morning coffee or tea. The entrance to the house is secured by electronic key pads and keys.

Super quiet, well appointed with luxury details, but still rustic & cozy and only a short walk from the beach. We really enjoyed our short stay in La Jolla and look forward to returning to the area again soon!

A Slice of Paradise
I have to say: writing this review is difficult -- because I don't want everyone else to know about this place. My wife and I booked our stay to celebrate our 30th Anniversary and we couldn't have picked a more amazing house with fantastic hosts in a beautiful city. Everything about our stay was perfect: from the amazingly beautiful grounds to the cozy nature of the house. Having the kitchen was fantastic and that add in a beautiful outdoor patio and grill with hot tub -- eating in was almost better than eating out in La Jolla. The property feels so secluded: at night it is peaceful and quite -- except for the owl who kept us company at night and he was most welcome. And while the house is tucked away it was very easy to access all La Jolla had to offer from beaches to museums to restaurants. And our hosts provided everything: beach chairs and umbrellas and also bikes to not only explore the nearby trail but get around town if we wanted. We enjoyed our stay so much -- it was difficult to leave. We are very excited to return.

A Rare Find
Beautiful little 1 bedroom quaint cottage nestled in the woods. Quiet location in LaJolla close to Windansea beach and right along the local bike path. Private backyard outdoor dining with hot tub and small seating area with bench to view sunsets. The owner and her son are very nice, keep to themselves but are very attentive when needed. Loved it!

An interesting property in a lovely setting
My wife and I were celebrating our 55th wedding anniversary, so booked this property to give us a good base of exploring the city of La Jolla. We live in LA, but had never visited the city. The property was close to a beach with rocky shores and beautiful views. Our stay was marred somewhat by a loud, squabbling couple next door, and next door was VERY close. The hot tub was nice but closer to the angry duo. All communications with the owners were excellent. The house is multi-level, and rather smaller than the photos suggest. Also, it is older, vintage 1945, with all that that date may imply. We in the main liked it a good deal, and as a LA Jolla base it may be very good.

Jewel in the hills
This was a true find. We loved how it nestled into the hill and provided a green oasis while we explored the ocean and La Jolla. Very easy to walk to many things. Would have loved the bikes - but it rained when we had time for them. Thanks!

The perfect getaway
As many of the reviews mention - the pictures do not do this property justice. It is the most peaceful and relaxing property I have been a guest at. Absolutely beautiful. We loved being able to enjoy a cup of coffee on the terrace and a glass of wine by the fireplace. Trish and Justin were fabulous hosts. We cannot wait to get back here!

Late February stay
We truly enjoyed our stay at the Windnsea Bungalow. As others have mentioned, the place is even nicer than shown in the photos. The lush landscaping is gorgeous, and the outside seating areas are well planned and executed. The bed and furniture are super comfy; we even made good use of the fireplace. Trish, Justin and their dog Daisy are fabulous hosts. They think of everything. The binder in the bungalow is full of useful and interesting information. It was such a pleasure to stay with them and hope to have an opportunity to visit again.

Wonderful
This place is so dreamy and relaxing — it’s our favorite place we’ve ever stayed. Loved the fireplace and hot tub, as well as cooking in the kitchen. There was some rain during our visit to La Jolla which made our stay here feel extra cozy, but we were able to take the bikes out during a break in the rain which was an incredible way to explore the area. Trish and Justin are A+ hosts — super kind and responsive. Don’t pass up an opportunity to stay here! We hope to come back soon.

A wonderful family vacation
From the moment we arrived we were made to feel at home! Trish and Justin were very hospitable. The property was amazing, with tons of windows and natural light. There was enough space both inside and outside the property for all to feel comfortable. The location is close to many beaches, shopping and restaurants, as well as markets, if we wanted to stay in and cook. My husband enjoyed the jacuzzi every night. The property comes with two bikes and we used them frequently throughout our stay. We hope to return!!!

Excellent, charming, wonderful host
Charming cozy house. Fully equipped w a hot tub, full kitchen and the best hot shower/water pressure. We brought our kids (20 months and 5) and Trish was super accommodating. While it’s kid friendly I wouldn’t describe it as a place for kids but if you’re just venturing out for the day and coming back for nap/bed it’s totally fine for that. The area is beautiful and there’s ton of restaurants and beaches nearby. Overall was a perfect experience save for the crazy rain (which isn’t exactly Trishs fault ;). Great host, great description, great house and area. 5/5.

About the host

Hosted by Trish Stanley

Host profile image
I'm a couples' therapist by profession, and love the freedom that being self-employed gives me, to play with my schedule, plan travel, and take off on adventures. My next trip will be a live aboard boat trip to the Channel Islands off the coast of Santa Barbara for hiking, snorkeling, birdwatching and kayaking.
I have always loved entertaining on a small intimate scale, and now, hosting this vacation rental gives me the opportunity to welcome guests from all over the world. I've always loved connecting people with what they are looking for, and now I get to recommend spectacular hikes, the most perfect local beach, tucked away restaurant gems, art venues, Kayak adventures and more.

Why they chose this property

I have lived in this amazing setting for 44 years. The front house, where I live, used to be a train station on the La Jolla-Pacific Beach Electric Railway over a hundred years ago. The Bike Path which runs in front of the property (instead of a street) was the right of way for the railroad tracks. Some of the original Monterey Cypress trees still provide shade! The back bungalow was built in the postwar period, and has a mix of mid-century modern and craftsman styles in its ambiance. Water features, wild bird and hummingbird feeders, a few carefully placed wind chimes: all contribute to a comforting, restorative environment.

What makes this property unique

What's really special about this property is that there is only one neighbor on this side of the bike path. To the north and east we are surrounded by permanent open space. And then, it's only a two-minute drive, five-minute walk and 3 blocks to the world famous Windansea Beach. Champion surfers claim the surf breaks here, but there's room to swim, boogie board or rest and read in one of the sheltered sandy spots between the large sandstone formations.
On-site are an ocean view bench for sunset watching, a new double hammock with pillow for daydreaming, a alcove under a tree with two cushioned Adirondack chairs for morning coffee and a private covered patio with a teak table and chairs and a cushioned chaise. I am tickled when guests rave about the quiet, the feeling of spaciousness and the unique ambiance of Windansea Woods!
