About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Villa Serena- full kitchen, and just a 3 minute walk to the beach!
Rest peacefully in this relaxing, 2 bedroom cottage in the peaceful Windansea Beach village of La Jolla. This unique and welcoming cottage is about a mile from La Jolla Village which offers a superb shopping experience. It's very close to Bird Rock, La Jolla cove, and La Jolla Shores. It's a few miles from Pacific Beach and Sea World. The zoo is conveniently close as well. If you would rather see seals and sea lions in the wild, we have plenty of those within walking distance at La Jolla cove. You can snorkel at the cove with wild sea lions swimming around you. There's also a wonderful opportunity to swim with hundreds of little leopard sharks when they come to shallow water to breed. It's an amazing experience! There's always something fun to do in and around La Jolla's Windansea Beach neighborhood.
Key Features:
- 3 minute walk to beach
- residential neighborhood
- peek ocean view deck- perfect for sunsets
- modern kitchen
- a park up the street with swings and a slide for the kiddos
- 1-3 blocks to market, restaurants, shops, coffee, bakery
- Plenty of free, 24/7 street parking right out front
- laundry machines just outside he kitchen
- AC available for those occasional heat waves
- Luckydog Sanctuary save 10-20% off repeat visits
Closely-supervised kids are welcome. This home is most suitable for infants and calm children age 5 and up. We don't allow running in the house or on the deck and, in general, we like to keep the noise level down for the neighbors. Pack n'play available.
We'll consider families of up to 6 for brief stays in this home if we can chat first to ensure it's a great fit. Book instantly for a family of up to 4. Due to there being only one bathroom off the main bedroom, you may wish to rent two or more of our adjacent cottages or one larger cottage if you have more than 4 or desire more privacy.
Our humble, rustic cottage is not suited to people with allergies or people who expect a property without wear-and-tear. We want our rentals to be pet-friendly so we do not try to keep them perfect. We use non-toxic/humane pest control which sometimes takes longer to work. In a nutshell, wear and tear, a little fur/sand, and the occasional pest is included in the rental. Thank you for understanding. =)
The following canines are not allowed on the property due to our insurance company (which does not make an exception for assistance animals): Akita, Cane Corso, Chow Chows, Dogo Argentino, Pit Bull, Presa Canario (Canary dog), Rottweiler, Staffordshire Bull Terrier, and any wild canine or hybrid thereof. We welcome dogs that are well-behaved with reliable temperaments that are not of these breeds. No destructive or aggressive animals allowed. Pet fee $30/night/pet ($90 mininum). If your pet isn't used to traveling and staying in a new place please reach out to us about renting a crate and/or having a plan in place to be sure they are safe and comfortable.
Thank you for supporting Luckydog Sanctuary and choosing to rent our vacation homes!
