We stayed here for a week and the experience was fabulous. Upon booking we got a message from Paul with the basic information on checking in. We had a couple of questions and he very quickly replied - timely and precise. When we arrived it was easy to get in and the condo was spotless. The location is excellent and one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in La Jolla, which is in and of itself quite nice. We had enjoyed walking the area and the amazing $10-$20 million homes that you can spy at through the gates or between the privacy hedges. It is convenient to shopping, dining, and right on the ocean. The front deck is maybe 50 yards to the water with nothing but a street and walking trail between the condo and the beach. I was a little worried about traffic on that street running in front of the condo but it turned out that while there is some car traffic during the day, it is very quiet after dark so no problems for light sleepers like me. Once the sun is up, there is pretty constant activity outside as The Windandsea Beach is spectacular and a destination of sorts, so if you like to people watch or view the surfers surfing, you can sit out on the deck with a glass of wine and just chill. If on the other hand, a chill in the air, the fire pit is easy to start up a fun way to get warm. Inside, the furnishings are modern and in excellent condition. The bed was very comfortable. There is a big screen LCD TV with a ton of U-Verse channels, though the U-Verse signal was occasionally cranky, it was not an issue as we spent more time just gazing out the floor to ceiling windows. And when we wanted privacy, the wireless electric shades went down with the push of a button. Too cool! Even cooler - the shades are somewhat translucent so even when they are down, when it’s light out you can still see the view to the ocean, though it’s muted and you can’t see in at all – so you get both privacy and some of the view. The gourmet kitchen was amazing with all Viking appliances. I loved cooking on the gas stovetop – you can bring a cup of water to boiling in 60 seconds. There were plenty of quality pots and pans provided. There’s a Keurig coffee maker and a coffee packets were provided, though you may want to buy some of your favorites. My only recommendation for improvement would be to get a set of cutting/steak knives. With the Weber gas grill on the patio, you may want to grill a nice NY Strip. But you would have to share the single steak knife to eat it! Otherwise, all the necessary items were provided including soap, shampoo, conditioner, trash bags, paper towels iron and board, and a blow dryer. Besides the...
