The only problem with Stella's Beach Cottage is we had to leave! Seriously, if you don't want to wake up to the smell of cinnamon rolls baking in the building behind you, throw a rock and hit the beach, walk to amazing restaurants nearby, play with every beach toy you could imagine, watch amazing sunsets from your patio, cruise the beach boardwalk for some of the best people watching, sleep in the softest sheets ever, then you probably shouldn't book here! This place exceeded our expectations. We were traveling with our 18 month old and the kids amenities included were a huge plus (high chair, pack n play, kids books and toys). Lisa is an incredible host. She checked in occasionally to be sure we had all we needed and responded quickly to questions. Lisa's place is a short drive to the Zoo, airport, La Jolla and downtown. The place is adorably decorated with beach decor- even mermaid knobs in the bathroom! We loved Miss. B's Coconut Club, Olive Bakery and Better Buzz Coffee around the corner. One night we even enjoyed a free live concert put on by our kind neighbor singing and playing his guitar to 90s hits. Don't think; just book! We can't wait to go back. Thank you Lisa!
