Both host Karen and the house were wonderful. We were in La Jolla for my son's wedding and as it turned out the house was only a 10 min walk to the area of the beach where the ceremony took place. The house was clean, bright and very comfortable. The area was more than sufficient for the 7 of us staying there. The neighborhood is safe and quiet. With an added bonus of being able to hear the ocean from the house. There are restaurants within walking distance. More shops and restaurants are within a 5 min drive. All in all a very positive experience. Would definitely recommend staying here.
