Sitting here on a blistery cold day back in Philadelphia, it is difficult not to get distracted by memories of the beautiful beaches just a few minutes away from Nadia’s wonderful place in La Jolla. The accommodations were impeccable and made you feel immediately at home. Nadia’s house is located in a quiet residential neighborhood just minutes away from several wonderfully eclectic restaurants and coffee shops, which Nadia will highlight for you on your first night there. The AirBnB apartment was impeccably clean and being on the lower part of the house was very private with its own entrance and garage. It was beautifully decorated with a large living area, two bedrooms and a large kitchen, which we ended up using on several evenings, opting to “stay at home” and watch one of the old movies from Nadia’s eclectic collection. My wife, daughter and I spent 4 wonderful days in La Jolla on a short get away to visit colleges and relax and we found the apartment’s size very comfortable for the three of us. Because the guest bedroom actually has two mattresses, the apartment could easily have accommodated our second daughter had she not been in college at the time. As a host, Nadia was simply marvelous! She greeted us on the first evening to tell us all about the apartment and about her top places to eat in the area. After our initial meeting, Nadia was always available by text or phone but she made sure to give us as much privacy as possible. On our next trip to California, we definitely will stay at Nadia’s place again, hopefully next time with both daughters. Merci Nadia et à très bientôt j’espère!
