We (small family, 2 large dogs) enjoyed our stay at Stephany’s, especially the extremely close location to the beach. You can walk right down to the water in about 5 minutes, and there are so many restaurants and shops within a 10 minute or so walk, as well. Short drives to plenty of attractions ( Sea World, the Zoo, Old Town, lots of theaters, etc. ) and we appreciated being close to La Jolla as we had an event there. There was no issue using the “ natural air conditioning,” we were very comfortable temperature wise and all the beds and bed linens, pillows were comfortable. There is a nicely stocked kitchen, in that there are plenty of dishes, cookware, utensils and appliances and the basic oils and spices necessary. Great towels and beach towels, and we loved having beach equipment available, rather than having to pack our own. The patio is pretty and it’s great to have a fenced space for the dogs there is not any grass back there, if that affects your dog, but ours loved to roam the patio space while we hung out either in or out of doors. The space is well decorated and has great little touches. Thanks Stephany!
