This was our best vacation rental ever. Two things made it so; a unique location with a bounty of marine life right across the street, and our friendly and responsive host, Clem, who made us feel truly welcome.
Clem’s condo is by no means glamorous, but it is comfortable, with a kitchen that’s surprisingly well equipped. Its biggest selling point is the full-length window that looks out onto the ocean, the coast, and the critters. There’s a popular restaurant right next door, but it didn’t bother us. There’s also a steady stream of traffic (both people and cars) but that didn’t bother us either. The noise insulation is excellent and the tourists leave at dusk. You will enjoy the intrepid swimmers who show up in the early morning to plunge into the (not warm) ocean.
The condo has no outdoor space apart from a small balcony. But it sits on miles and miles of scenic bluffs, beaches and parks. The village of La Jolla, with restaurants, shops and galleries, is a just short walk up the hill.
Highly recommended.
