My 3-year old daughter and I stayed at the cottage for several days, and enjoyed every moment. I am someone who finds quirky little details like a blue skylight right above the bed to be incredibly charming because it gives character to a place that no amount of savvy high-tech whatever can give in an upscale hotel. It is one of the best visiting experiences I've had in La Jolla, and I've previously stayed at hotels like Grande Colonial and La Valencia, which really are not THAT nice for being among "the nicest" in La Jolla. BTW, the review that Liza provides about what to expect about the cottage is spot on.

I lived In La Jolla several years ago, and was so delighted to bring my daughter here to introduce her to one of the most beautiful places in the U.S. The space in this cottage was perfect for the two of us in just about every way. Also, John, the property manager, was incredibly helpful and very quick to get back to me with questions I had.
