We truly enjoyed our stay at this property. The views are amazing and never get old. The house is very clean and is in great condition as it has been kept up well. Management was very helpful and went above and beyond to help us...even when our car battery died. The location is perfect. Just a short drive to downtown La Jolla, but also in walking distance to the shops and restaurants in Birdrock. We look forward to returning!
We had a wonderful stay. The house is beautiful and in a great location. Can walk to stores and restaurants and close to PB, OB and downtown San Diego. Kitchen was well stocked and nice welcome gift from management. Back deck views were amazing. Would definitely stay here again
My family truly enjoyed our stay here. It has everything you could possibly want and is much more open and spacious than the square footage would lead you to believe. Property management was prompt and efficient with any questions we had. 10/10 stay!
We visited one of our sons who lives in San Diego. He an other family joined us and this property was perfect for a long weekend. The house was spectacular and you absolutely cannot beat the location and views. The layout, fit and finishes were superb and it had everything we needed. They enjoyed the welcome package and the instructions for everything were so well written and organized. We would 100% recommend this property and definitely want to return again!!!
This place is designed to "WOW" and it does not disappoint! It is expensive, but totally worth it. Style and comfort merge with premium and luxury in this property. There was plenty of room for 6 adults in 3 bedrooms and 3 full, en suite baths. The additional half-bath was another welcome feature. If I had to summarize this experience in one word, it would be "premium." From design to space to surfaces to appliances to fixtures to furnishings, there is nothing lacking. Treat yourself, and enjoy!
The home is very clean -immaculate - and the view is as depicted online - simply perfect. Our family enjoyed an incredibly relaxed visit. The management team was exceptionally professional and the arrival and check out process was seamless.The guest manual, welcome gift, and thoughtful communication via texts added to the overall excellent experience. Our stay exceeded our expectations. 10/10. Thank you. :)
I cannot say enough great things about this house! The location is amazing. The house is beyond beautiful and having the water right in front of you never gets old. Waking up and seeing the seals right out front was lovely. There was ample room for our multigenerational family stay. And at night the house transforms with the firepits and fireplaces into a haven for us to be able to unwind and enjoy the sounds of the ocean.
Thank you to Bluewater for the ease of check in and out and always being responsive to our needs. You will not regret staying here in fact you may not want to leave.
The house is beautiful! It is exactly as it’s portrayed on the website. In fact, it is even nicer than the pictures show. The view is to die for. You are sitting right on the water on a little cliff overlooking bird rock. Every morning you’re greeted with surfers, seals, and all manner of seabird. The deck is large, with two gas fire bowls that were used often at night. Can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed that deck! The house is very very clean! It has been newly renovated, and everything is very upscale. The master bath is huge.
We were there during pretty warm weather, at least for La Jolla. (80’s during the day). Probably the only complaint we had was that the small bedroom attached to the master did not have air conditioning that could keep up with the hot afternoon sun. But that was very minor and there was a fan you could use that helped a lot during the warm afternoon hours.
The location is perfect. There are a number of restaurants and shops all within walking distance. However, the neighborhood itself is fairly quiet. When we return to La Jolla we would not hesitate to rent this house.
The good: The house is beautiful and in a perfect location. It is recently remodeled and beautifully furnished. Check in is super easy and the management team was largely easy to reach.
The bad: There are a few maintenance issues that I would not expect in a property of this price or quality.
The spa was dirty, with sand and debris at the bottom and an odor to the water. I was told it was cleaned weekly but I am not sure this had been done (well) recently. I called the management team and they had someone clean it.
There was a planned power outage during our stay of which we were not informed. We were in San Diego for a medical procedure and to not be able to adequately tend to my wife post-operatively due to a planned outage on the day of the surgery was unacceptable. Had I known about the outage I honestly would have cancelled. I told the team and they did offer us a small discount on our stay.
The air conditioning went out during our stay. I left messages with the team which went unanswered. I finally texted a photo to the team of the interior temperature of the house (89 degrees) to which they ultimately did respond. They were unable to repair the unit and we went without air conditioning for 2 days of our stay. The maintenance crew said I could expect a call back from the manager and likely another discount on my stay. I was never called. I left messages for Amy but she never called me back.
Excellent property and home overall. Incredible views from the deck and located in a beautiful part of La Jolla. We appreciated the short walking distance to shops and restaurants. Home interior and amenities were great. Thanks!
This property was clean and beautiful! The house was well equipped with everything you would need. The outside patio was amazing! The pictures don’t do it justice. It was so quiet and peaceful. We loved this house!
The pictures don’t do this house justice. It’s an amazing view. The house is modern, clean, and well-stocked.
I just sat and watched the surfers, waves, and birds. It was so relaxing. I would definitely go back.
I couldn’t figure out the fire pit and blue water sent maintenance guy. He was super helpful.
