Sharon is a wonderful host and was great at communicating with us. The area where we stayed was clean and well-suited to our needs. We went out and explored La Jolla and San Diego and it was nice to have the backyard and some comfy lounge chairs to come home to at the end of a long day of adventures. Charlotte, the dog, and Brave, the cat, were also very sweet and it was nice to spend time with them. Our only note would be that this is an ideal stay if you have access to a car, we did not rent a car and sometimes it was a bit of a climb back up the hill from spending time at the beach. Overall, wonderful place and highly recommended.
