While a quick dusting and vacuuming for spiders and cobwebs would have made my daughters' and wife's first impression much better, we enjoyed our stay. I suggested perhaps this is just the nature of the area with year-round warm weather lots of mature vegetation nearby. A little initial work and clean-up took care of the problem. The property appeared aged compared to what I could see in the photos but was still completely functional. The tiny loft was difficult to access and had the most spiders and webs, so nobody stayed up there. The property location is very nice, with a beautiful backyard and large BBQ grill, which worked well. The driveway is steep, exits onto a busy road, and is only accessible from one direction but was not a problem once we learned how to handle it and local drivers were polite when traffic was heavy and needed in or out of the driveway. The nearest walking access to the beach just south of the Marine Room restaurant was around 10 minutes away but inaccessible around high tide. The other beach access to the north was a bit further since it requires going all the way around the private beach and tennis club down Avenida De La Playa. Both walks were very nice. The outdoor shower is an awesome feature and the shed full of beach accessories is a terrific amenity. This property met the needs of our large family very well with the multiple bathrooms, spacious living area, large dining table and great back patio. Overall, this property was very good for our visit to La Jolla Cove, La Jolla Shores and surrounding area.
