Seaside Spanish Casa, Just Steps to the World Famous Windansea Beach of La Jolla

Built in 1926 (remodeled 2012), we offer you a comfortable beach vacation experience in this Seaside Spanish Home located in La Jolla just steps from the world famous Windansea Beach.

Stroll along the Pacific Ocean on the boardwalk or in the sand, walk to restaurants, coffee shops and a grocery store in this safe and charming neighborhood. Less dense and quieter than Pacific Beach and Mission Beach, a real neighborhood with mostly year-round locals as neighbors.

This 1850 sq ft single-family home, steps to the world famous Windansea Beach is in a quiet, beachy neighborhood of La Jolla. You are sure to feel at home in this well-appointed beach house.

Enjoy the historical aspects of the house, the high coved ceilings, wood burning fireplace and original hardwood floors. Also included are 3 bedrooms (King, Queen, 2 Twin beds), 2 full bathrooms, a spacious living room, dining room, breakfast nook/home office, additional queen air mattress, well stocked kitchen, laundry machines, laundry soap, towels, shampoo/conditioner, hairdryers, 2 pack 'n plays with mattresses and fitted sheets, stroller, toys, beach toys, beach wagon, surf boards, boogie boards, beach chairs, cooler, umbrella, games, books, TVs with roku, and more! It’s easy and fun to prepare a delicious meal using the modern appliances in your charming kitchen with a gas range.

A BBQ, built in table/benches and two off-street, tandem parking places are located in the back patio. The front of the house is south facing and has a large green grassy yard with views of the ocean to the west.

Savor the salty air and see incredible sunsets, including an occasional Green Flash when the horizon is a clear crisp line. Land's end here, where the Pacific kisses the California coast is hard to top. Come to La Jolla and find out why we call it the The Jewel.

We loved staying here and were so impressed by the amount of things for a young family at the home to make our vacation so much easier and more enjoyable. The location was perfect and an easy walk to the beach with young kids. I would definitely stay at this house again!

Wonderful home away from home !

This was my first time ever booking a house for a trip. One daughter was getting married in La Jolla and I thought a house, rather than a hotel would be better for 5 adults and a toddler. This place was perfect! It was clean and comfortable, stocked with all the essentials, and a short walk to the beach. It was perfect for us! Communication with Paula was easy as well.

Multigenerational Family Vacation 9 months - 60!

We had a great stay at this property. Quiet and clean. All was as described. Close to beach, restaurants and grocery stores. We took daily walks by the shore and the Coastal Walking Trail. We went to the Zoo, Mission Basilica San Diego de Alcala, USS Midway and Seaport Village. We picked up evening meals from the Promiscuous Fork twice and several meals from The Taco Stand! Evenings were quiet with a kid friendly movie in the lovely living room. We would be happy to stay in this home again and recommend it!

We drove from AZ to meet NY sisters who flew in to CA for the first time! Showed them all over San Diego, LaJolla location was perfect - in between downtown and then north beaches up to Carlsbad. I have NEVER stayed at a VRBO with such a responsive host like Paula!! Returned emails - all my questions - so quickly. The neighborhood is beautiful ... really enjoyed watching the surfers.

Great Windansea Location for Families!

We enjoyed our stay here. We were in La Jolla for our daughter’s wedding and the location was perfect for our needs. Our grandchildren loved all the fun toys in the closet and outdoor closet. The house is very well-stocked with all the things you might need to enjoy a beach day. It’s also a great location from which to explore the many San Diego attractions!
