Oceanfront beauty
We enjoyed this rental soooo much! Has everything we needed even some left over beach toys for our 3 year old which was a pleasant surprise. I could sit on the couch and stare at the ocean all day! We picked this place because it was a couple blocks down the street from my sisters place. It did not disappoint. Surely we would love to come back!!

Nice view
Good property location. Great view,,, house had everything and was spotless. The garage is difficult to get in and out and is shared w other tenant behind house. There was at 6-7 people living in their cars (homeless),, lots of drinking and illicit smoking (drugs). Wasn’t expecting that. Property Manager communication was excellent.Overall a good experience.

Perfect Beach Getaway (Hidden Gem)
We stayed on this property for five nights and we had an amazing stay at this home. Weather was perfect during our stay too as it was breezy and sunny most of the time. Such at a great location right next to the beautiful Windansea Beach. The views were wonderful and sitting on the oversized deck or even in the living room where it has this huge open window to watch surfers was always fun to start the day! The house was comfortable and easy to gather as a family as well find some quiet time. We will definitely stay again. This house was hosted by Drift Vacations and they did a great job communicating and checking on us the whole time. Thank you for a great time!!

The Best!
Our daughter moved to La Jolla 9 months ago and lives down the street. This was a perfect house for me and my husband to be near her and have the relaxing and beautiful view to stay in. We enjoyed everything! Thank you for sharing your slice of heaven with us. We are hoping to come back Thanksgiving 2024.

Everything we came for!
Perfect long weekend at the beach! Escaping the snow and seeing palm trees, blue skies, and gorgeous sunsets is good for the soul. This beach house had the most unbelievable views and was in a perfect location. My son and I chilled and watched the surf, while my wife and daughter enjoyed the contemporary art museum and shopping in La Jolla. This beach house has amazing outdoor spaces--the last thing we wanted was to be cooped up in a glass/concrete box, so this house was perfect. Even when we were inside we could open up the dutch door, windows, and french doors to the deck--hear the ocean, take in the salt air. I think there is as much outdoor living square footage as there is interior living space. And the outdoor spaces were completely private, so we could let the dog run around without any worries. Garage parking, great local restaurants in walking distance, only twenty minutes from all the San Diego attractions (we had a fun afternoon at the Midway), I'm pretty sure this place is paradise.

Great Stay!
The pictures of the front patio won us over and the stay did not disappoint! The house was very clean and very well kept. The front patio made for some great relaxing sunset views. The location wasn’t bad at all with small beaches being just steps from the house and included a nice walkway along the beach as well. A few restaurants were a 5-7 minute walk away and many major tourist attractions were 10-20 minutes away. The owner and other reviews were detailed to share that the garage is very narrow and not connected directly to the house. Not a big deal for us but good to know going into it. Also, the parking lot across the street had some people living in their vans who stayed there for the night, but they kept to themselves and we never felt unsafe with our one year old. Still, things to be aware of going into the booking. All in all, we loved the place. We would definitely stay again! We spent a lot of time looking at other houses/hotels and we’re grateful we found this one. For the price and amenities compared to other places we checked, my wife and I were very happy with the place!

Amazing
We were so happy with the location and the house that we cancelled two days of activities so that we could just hang. There is definitely more beach than the pictures suggest and chairs and an umbrella to use. The deck was great for people watching, surfer watching and just relaxing. I read a whole book. Love, love, love!! We will go back!

Restful, Charming, and So Much Fun
Came here to say that we could not be happier with our stay at this charming beach house. It was spacious, had amazing out door spaces, and was so thoughtfully appointed that we never wanted to leave. The views from this house are incredible. So is falling asleep to the sound of the ocean. I think my son took the longest nap of his life while we were there. We took advantage of the gorgeous beach out front most days of our trip--made sand castles, dug for sand crabs, explored tide pools, and splashed in the surf. The fact that there is dedicated parking (in the cutest garage I have ever seen) made exploring the town of La Jolla and the rest of San Diego so easy. We couldn't believe how close we were to so many fun things and we never worried about finding parking upon our return--important when tired kids are part of the equation. The house had everything we needed. We discovered lots of restaurants, shops, and a market that has the most amazing dip in the universe--all within walking distance. La Jolla is a beautiful, eclectic town and exploring it is so much fun. This beach house is truly a gem. It exceeded all our expectations and we hope to come back very soon. Highly, highly recommend.

Great getaway!
We recently had the pleasure of staying at this lovely beach house. The location was perfect, right across from the beach with stunning ocean views!! Walkable to lots of shops and restaurants. The house itself was very nice, comfortable and cozy. Their management team was attentive and friendly, they responded very quickly to any questions. We will definitely be back!

A Breathtaking Escape!
This property is a treasure, mindfully designed, with unobstructed views of the sea. At every turn, guests enjoy unmatched vistas and thoughtful details, from the large, modern kitchen which opens onto a charming outdoor dining space, to the preserved period details, the house and surprisingly large surrounding property was a space we didn't want to leave. We watched dolphins and seals amble by from the large front windows and took daily walks on Windansea Beach, which is literally steps away. Excellent shops and restaurants are within easy walking distance or a short drive to the village of La Jolla. We stayed with our young family, and the property was well set-up to accommodate our group. Throughout the house, the original art work of local award-winning artists James M Fisher is showcased; this is, as I understand it, the home where he grew up as a child, and he understands the light and textures of the sea there like no one else. I own several Fishers, and his seascapes in particular are unmatched. I inquired if any of the art in the house is available--it is, and at surprisingly reasonable rates. We will be coming back! For a magical escape that nourishes and restores both body and soul, surrounded by the beauty of nature, inspiring art, and charming architecture, I can't recommend Neptune enough.

Great location except for the bums
Great house … clean, super location. Unfortunately, there are anywhere from 3 to 5 bums that permanently park in their vehicles across the street. They may leave for a night or two during the week, but always return. The police have little time to stay on top of the issue, so, unfortunately, you have to deal with their drinking, smoking, a variety of things, and the noise they create. It’s too bad that local ordinances or not enforced. La Jolla prohibits overnight camping in public parking spaces but that law is only as good as its enforcement.

Exceeded Expectations
We had a very wonderful experience in this comfortable and cozy beachfront home. From the home, the view of the world-famous Windansea Beach is spectacular, and the sunsets are absolutely gorgeous. A large deck attached to the residence overlooks the beautiful beach, and the quaint landscaped yard made our stay a paradise. The host is excellent to work with. Highly recommend this five-star property to anyone.

Gorgeous oceanfront view.
Our girls trip was to take in various sites in San Diego. Little did we know that the best place to be was LaJolla. Our VRBO was so delightful that we didn’t rush out each day. We lingered at our ocean view VRBO mornings and evenings. The neighborhood was great for evening walks. The local restaurants had something for everyone. I would stay here again!
