The main attraction for me when I booked this spot was the location, and it definitely did not disappoint. We walked the few short steps to Windandsea Beach every day. It was never very crowded compared to the other beaches we visited, and there were several surfers to watch every day.
The house has 2 decks and a rooftop patio area that all allow you to see and hear the ocean. For us, that was the most important amenity, but the home itself is also very nice. I read some others had trouble parking in the narrow garage. Just to give reference, we rented a VW Jetta for our trip. While I did go very slowly and carefully in and out of the garage, the car did fit and we used the garage the whole week.
We hadn't been to the San Diego beaches in about 20 years, and I was happy we chose Brian's place in La Jolla. It is only about 20 minutes to the airport, and was a great location to serve as a home base while we visited the tidal pools, Torrey Pines, Anna's Canyon, Oceanside, and the Ocean Beach, Pacific Beach, and Mission Beach areas. We were very happy with our choice.
