The cottage is a well appointed in law unit with a private gate entrance. My daughters, 11 and 10, and I had a great long weekend in La Jolla. We enjoyed how close the unit is to the ocean-maybe a 5 minute walk. The neighborhood was quiet and we felt safe with the windows open all night. There were beach towels and a couple of beach chairs for us to use during our stay. There are many good food options within walking distance. We rented a car, but as our goal was to play at the beach we would have been fine without one. Street parking was easy. We took Maureen’s suggestion and walked up to Caroline’s cafe for breakfast one morning.
