About this property

FLASH SALE!* FIRST CLASS  ACCOMMODATIONS AT COACH CLASS RATES! CLICK FOR DETAILS

Already included are a genuine concern for your comfort, a fully equipped residence, and VIG treatment (Very Important Guest.)

Enjoy a wonderful vacation at our authentic Spanish home.

Your 3 bedroom 2 bath casa with parking is located just two houses (a 30 second walk to the west) from the sand at the world famous La Jolla Windansea Beach.

Savor the salty air and see incredible sunsets, including an occasional Green Flash when the horizon is a clear crisp line. Land's end here, where the Pacific kisses the California coast is hard to top.

Built in 1926 (and tastefully remodeled in 2012), your vacation awaits.

We have many beach toys for you, surf/body boards, beach chairs, a BBQ, old-fashioned floor heaters (the best!), air-conditioners, and a new laundry. We have a pack 'n play, toys, and high chair/booster seat combination.

Relax in the private patio or spend the evening in the cozy living room with tall coved ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace.

We also provide an office/den for the business traveler. (Or enjoy a peaceful breakfast there.)

The centrally located dining room can be the focus for a family vacation or serve as a quiet dining experience for adult vacationers. It’s easy and fun to prepare a delicious meal using the modern appliances in your charming kitchen with a gas range.

Other key features include 2 off street parking spaces and, upon request, a garage. A two minute walk east in our quiet and safe neighborhood brings you to several charming eateries. 

We strive to provide upscale accommodations and service. Our family considers it an ultimate compliment when valued guests return. 

So come, be our guest in the beautiful Windansea community, play in the sand and waves, and then let the surf lull you to sleep.

Your comfort is our business. And we take it seriously!

Great family vacation house
We loved staying here and were so impressed by the amount of things for a young family at the home to make our vacation so much easier and more enjoyable. The location was perfect and an easy walk to the beach with young kids. I would definitely stay at this house again!

Multigenerational Family Vacation 9 months - 60!
We had a great stay at this property. Quiet and clean. All was as described. Close to beach, restaurants and grocery stores. We took daily walks by the shore and the Coastal Walking Trail. We went to the Zoo, Mission Basilica San Diego de Alcala, USS Midway and Seaport Village. We picked up evening meals from the Promiscuous Fork twice and several meals from The Taco Stand! Evenings were quiet with a kid friendly movie in the lovely living room. We would be happy to stay in this home again and recommend it!

Showing off San Diego
We drove from AZ to meet NY sisters who flew in to CA for the first time! Showed them all over San Diego, LaJolla location was perfect - in between downtown and then north beaches up to Carlsbad. I have NEVER stayed at a VRBO with such a responsive host like Paula!! Returned emails - all my questions - so quickly. The neighborhood is beautiful ... really enjoyed watching the surfers.

Charming vintage seaside home
Perfect Windansea beach locale, wonderful strolling—and running, people watching, sunsets every night. The residential neighborhood quiet, one-of-a-kind 1920s cottages, architecture. Well-stocked kitchen, best VRBO kitchen we’ve experienced, appreciate. Bring warm pjs & socks for chilly evenings. Good heating from vented heaters, though an intermittent clang. Very close to grocery & two very different taco shops, repeat visits to Promiscuous Fork. TV not hooked up to WiFi, so bring your Netflix code (we didn’t). Responsive host, replaced failed coffeemaker right away, thanks. We enjoyed our stay.

Quintessential beach cottage on a gorgeous block
This beach cottage was a great place to stay in La Jolla. Beach at the end of the block is amazing, and the cottage had a lot of great beach supplies, which was very helpful. The host is very thoughtful, and the house was comfy. It was the perfect place for our stay.

La Jolla Trip Christmas 2024
My wife, our younger son (22) and I stayed at this lovely house for 4 days while visiting my older son, who now lives in San Diego. The location of this house is perfect. The house is located less than a 2 minute walk to the beach & a 5-7 minute walk to restaurants & shopping. 10 minute drive to downtown La Jolla and easy access to the highway to San Diego. Everything was as advertised. House had everything we needed. We were able to park on the street each night although there is a garage and driveway in the back that is easily accessible. Paula was very helpful and professional. We will stay here again next time we visit our son.
