About this property

3 Blocks From Beach, Free Kayak Rentals

Nestled above a retail space in the quaint La Jolla Shores neighborhood, this upstairs unit is a two minute walk from San Diego's most beautiful and family friendly beaches, La Jolla Shores.

The unit is upstairs from Hike Bike Kayak Adventures, who generously includes free equipment rentals for guests of this unit including kayaks, boogie boards, snorkels, foam surf boards, paddle boards and wetsuits. They also include 25% off guided tours for guests of this unit.

The unit is a one bed, one bath with queen size blow up matress. Perfect for a couple or young family.

La Jolla Shores is a mile long pristine beach and the neighborhood is much quieter, easier to park, and more relaxing than La Jolla Village. However, La Jolla Village and La Jolla Cove are still a five minute car ride, fifteen minute bike ride (for adults), or twenty minute walk. While La Jolla Shores has such famous restaurants as Piatti's, Osteria Romantica, and the five-star Marine Room, the shopping, restaurants, bars, and art galleries are still very accessible from this location.

From La Jolla Shores, depending on the season, you can relax on the beach in the sun, kayak the La Jolla Sea Caves, snorkel with the famous (and completely harmless) leopard sharks, kayak with gray whales, surf gentle waves, boogie board around the beautiful coast. All with equipment or instruction from Hike Bike Kayak Adventures.

Memorable LaJolla
This 2nd floor apartment is quaint, centrally located and a short walk to the beach. We ate right across the street at the Sandpiper and cooked meals. Perfect coffee each day was just next door. Next time we will take them up on their free kayak offer. Not sure ibetter.

Perfect Stay in Perfect Location
Condo was as advertised and better! We loved it. Location is great with useful beach essentials provided (chairs and towels). Super easy to get around and easy access to route 30 bus into La Jolla and San Diego in a breeze. Highly recommend this rental to any couple looking to spend vacation in La Jolla!

Location! Three blocks from sand, and a few steps from dining options, coffee next door! However, this dated property needs some TLC, and a better cleaning crew.

Coming back!
We've stayed here before and love it. It's very light and has a wonderful decor and feel about it. It's quiet except in the morning with trash trucks. We soon got over that. Great location for going to the shore and also having a kayak or boogie board.

Surf trip Lajolla 2024
The cottage was conveniently located to the beach and shops and dining areas. It wasn’t super fancy but it was definitely sufficient. We had all the amenities we needed. The outdoor shower and patio overlooking the street were excellent! It was not noisy even though we were all near the Main Street in Lajolla Shores. Parking was the only inconvenience. Surfing was great and the weather was fantastic! Definitely a great vacation

An amazing stay in La Jolla Shores
Just a great place to stay. Terrific private space above the rental shop. Clean, well maintained and had everything we needed. Interactions with the host were easy and friendly. Sharon made accessing the kayaks easy. Just a short walk to an amazing beach to walk, kayak and snorkel. Highly recommended!
