You cannot beat this location, central to everything, perfect for what we wanted. Only hiccup we had was the lockbox number given to us did not work, but thankful there were contacts given in the event that this happened. Enjoyed our stay.

Location, location, location

Just as other reviewers stated, this place isn’t about the accommodations (which are 100% adequate as a minimal home base during your stay); rather, it’s all about the close proximity to beach, restaurants, and shops. I’d stay here again for the great location and easy check-in/check-out.

Long holiday weekend

This place is so cute and centrally located to the beach and restaurants and even a movie theater. We parked the rental car and didn’t use it the entire weekend. We got lots of steps in! The home was the perfect size for me and my spouse. The prop mgr responded quickly when I asked for early checkin. I recommend staying here for couples and if you like to be able to walk everywhere.

Cozy, clean, and close to all things

I liked my stay here. Very clean overall. , The bedroom was smallish but the bed was very comfortable. Closet had hangers, a dresser, and was perfect for a couple. The kitchen had everything and more. The living room is just big enough for a couple, with adequate furniture and a dining table. The bathroom was small and a bit tight( I’m a 200 pound male and the seat was a bit small for me). Close access to local eateries, the shops, and the beach was perfect!Minutes to it all!Some traffic noise at this location being close to the restaurants and apartments. Parking on Eads is the way to go to avoid a parking citation. Be aware of parking limits throughout La Jolla: they are enforced! I would stay here for sure if by myself again. Nothing more than a couple.

Short walk to everything

Short walk to everything when we do our getaway trips to the La Jolla area we love to just park the car and forget about it. This property was perfect for that as it allowed us to walk in and explore the local restaurants, the ocean, and just the quaint neighborhood. It perfectly met our needs. It was a bit smaller than we expected but truthfully we didn’t need more space, I think it would be crowded for more than two adults and maybe one small child but then again, those traveling to enjoy the beach are likely not spending a lot of time indoors. Check in and check out was very easy, property was spotless.

Perfect Location for La Jolla

Couldn’t ask for better access to restaurants, shopping, and the beach. On the smaller side, however, it was not an issue as we were always out and about. Would definitely stay again! Thank you

Good location near the Cove

We wanted to be able to walk to local restaurants and the ocean, so this worked for us. The Cottage is close for breakfast and lunch. A bakery is across the street. It’s a tiny place but the two of us were comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. Each morning there was considerable noise from trash trucks and restaurants’ deliveries. The neighborhood itself was nice. I would return.

Blue Topaz - excellent location

We had an excellent stay at the Blue Tapaz right in the heart of downtown La Jolla. The location could not be beat. The living space is pretty small but perfect for 1 or 2 guests especially since we were out and about enjoying all that the La Jolla and the surrounding area had to offer. Very clear that this is a professionally managed property so that helped as well. We hope to be back again!

Surprisingly affordable - excellent location!

We stayed at Blue Topaz and it was wonderful. Amazing location and extremely walkable. All the amenities we ever needed. The bed was one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in. We did not hang out at the apt very long otherwise it would have maybe been nicer if we had more of a view. You have no real view - just a street at ground level. But when you're sleeping, that doesn't matter. We will definitely be back as it was very affordable and perfectly comfortable.

Was the quality I expected for the price of the rental.

This property is one of the cheaper house/condo rentals you can get in la jolla and it was the quality I expected for the price. There were a few problems: the bathroom had a leak coming from either from the shower or the toilet. I also wish the patio was in the sun and not in the back alley way, and it was quite loud in the mornings because it was right next to a breakfast restaurant that gets food shipped very early in the morning. If you are someone that likes to sleep in or are a light sleeper this would probably drive you crazy, but I am a morning person so it didn't bother me too much. Parking was difficult as I think it is all across San Diego, and some days we had to park several blocks down the street. If you are considering staying anywhere in la jolla and are renting a car it is worth it to get a parking spot even if you have to pay extra. That being said, the price of this rental condo was good and the house had all the amenities I needed: two tvs, fully stocked kitchen with a stove oven coffee maker toaster microwave and full sized fridge (only missing a dishwasher), and a washer and dryer. The pull out couch came in handy although I wouldn't say this property houses 4 people it really is for two people since there is only one queen sized bed. It is also a short walk to prospect street and the beach and close to tons of places to eat and shop. It is very close to the 30 bus line, if you are using public transit. The house rental company la jolla vacation rentals was also very professional, and sent me several emails and phone calls answering any of my questions and gave me all the information I needed to know before arriving at the condo rental. Overall it was a good stay, but I think I will try a different place with this house rental company when I visit la jolla next year.
