I was fortunate enough to find this beautiful retreat at the last minute when I sorely needed a quick getaway for some time alone. The private suite was clean and comfortable. I had the lovely upstairs patio to myself with flowering foliage and a gorgeous view of the Pacific. This neighborhood in La Jolla is stunning. Easy access to a gourmet market (2 miles away) where I found everything I needed to settle in for some serious rest and relaxation. Mary is a lovely woman and she could not have been more warm and welcoming. If you're looking for some quiet and private time to "get away from it all" I would highly recommend. There is some construction going on in the neighborhood but there was no noise over the weekend and they didn't start until after 9AM on Monday morning when I needed to be up and on my way anyway. I didn't want to leave! I plan to return any time I need to recharge my spirit. Such a blessing!
