Perfect retreat
Situated in a quiet neighborhood but within walking distance of coffee shops, restaurants, and the ocean, the cottage offered a perfect balance of comfort, privacy and convenience. The bed was very comfortable and I enjoyed being able to read, write, and bird watch on the private balcony that overlooks a tranquil garden. On-street parking was readily available anytime of day and check-in/check-out was easy as pie. Many thanks to Mark and Marty for being excellent hosts! Hope to see you again next time I’m in San Diego.

Bird Rock Bungalow
Quaint one room apartment in a quiet area. The accommodations were very comfortable and very clean. It was a perfect space for my short stay in LaJolla. The owner is very responsive to questions. I would stay again when in LaJolla.

This cottage was an amazing stay! From the utilities provided to the area begin so close to awesome spots. Felt just like home away from home! The neighborhood is very quiet, cozy, and beautiful. Especially loved the accommodations when it came to early check-in and late check-out! Huge plus in my book! Would definitely be coming back and recommending to friends.

It was a cute little room, it had everything I needed. Enjoyed the two block walk down to the ocean. Mardy and Mark were both gracious and friendly. I enjoyed the breakfast my last day.

Great spot
This was a great spot in a perfect location for our brief stay in La Jolla. The bed was surprisingly comfy, the croissants at the nearby bakery were wonderful, and having bikes available to use was a huge plus. Thank you, Marty, for a great stay.

Just what I needed
I had a conference at a resort later in the week and decided to come in a few days early for a "me-cation" and to explore the area. This cozy cottage was absolutely perfect for what I needed! It's just a few blocks from the little downtown area of Bird Rock. I could walk and get pastries and coffee in the morning and enjoy them while looking out over the cliffs at the ocean. It's an easy Uber ride to anywhere else you want to visit. I didn't get to use the bike because of the rain, but I dodged the raindrops enough to enjoy visits to the Zoo, Mission Beach, and walk the main streets of La Jolla and the Cove. Marty was incredibly sweet and helpful, even offering to grab me anything I needed from the store since I was arriving late. Just a really lovely stay all around.
