Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our 4th time staying in this complex and our first time in this particular unit. It never disappoints! We had six adults, two children and a dog and there was plenty of room for all of us! Love that this unit has a pool right out the door with a play ground for the kids as well. It is a short walk to the beach which is a big plus to staying here. The unit was clean and comfortable for all of us. I highly recommend staying here. We will continue to bring our family back for vacation time.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Lajolla Shores unit was a good fit for our 4 generation family. Kids pool & playground right across from us. More adult pool was just a short stroll. Beach in walkable distance but wish it was cleaner. Only complaints were needed a bigger frying pan, unbroken broom and there was no dustpan. Mosquitos were a problem at night going in & out the door.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay. The location is perfect, took a golf cart to the beach each day. The bedrooms are very roomy and the home has a cute decor. The 2 parking spots are perfect, easy to unload. The home was clean and pictures are very true to view. The rental management staff were extremely helpful both before our visit and during with questions. We loved this little place. If I had to list one picky thing then it would be the showerheads, there is water pressure but faint streams coming out for your shampoo/rinse, so just be patient.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had two issues during our stay. One was that two of the bathrooms and bedroom light did not work. Since it was after hours, we were on hold for a long period of time and they could not tell us when they would be able to address the issue. My husband was the one to find the circuit breaker and found that the breaker was tripped. We were able to fix the issue since we needed light and did not know when the maintenance person would be able to come over to fix. The second issue was that we were locked out of the condo due to the battery on the key bad was dead. This happened after hours and we had to wait an hour for someone to repair. This happened at 11pm at night after coming back from a restaurant. This was very stressful due to many of our guests were over 60 years old. I think that after hour support should be quicker to accommodate.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Accommodations were nice and spacious! Did have the smoke/fire alarm go off three times during the night. Couldn't find the reason other than the batteries were getting low. Recommend checking them out. Front doorknob was hard to operate from the inside (not set right). Recommend repositioning. Also, there were no black wash clothes as requested in the bathrooms to remove make-up. Overall, our stay was great!

Really enjoyed our stay! Other reviews from a few years ago mentioned cleanliness as an issue, but the unit was spotless. Bedrooms were large and it was great having 3 king beds since there were 3 couples. The other beds (a bunk bed, pull-out couch and a day bed with a trundle in the living room) don't offer much privacy, but that's to be expected, and it was really nice having all the bed options since we had a few friends join us for a couple of days during our trip. Kitchen was well-stocked in terms of the number of pots/pans, plates, etc. Other reviews also complained that there weren't spices and other kitchen supplies like foil, tupperware, etc., but after reading the reviews when we booked the unit, we knew to bring supplies with us. In addition, grocery store is fairly close so it's not a big deal if you need anything. There is a hose to wash off feet right outside the front door, and despite leaving our shoes on the porch, floors got sandy. The stick vacuum isn't the greatest, but definitely took care of the keeping gritty floors to a minimum. We didn't really have any problems, but management response to a couple of questions was almost immediate, even outside of normal business hours--very impressive. Overall, the unit was great. Short walk to the beach, pool right outside the door--the pool temperature was really nice vs. the warm bathwater that you might expect in August. Check-out was really easy too.

Literally 4 paces from front door to pool locked gate. Expect playful children noises. Nice clean place inside and out. Pool guy maintained chemical levels daily. Close to dining and bar. Bring beach towels, 1 block walk or very short drive to beach. Golf cart rental available nearby. Close to grocery and food services. Animal area only rocks no grass. Cold AC. Make sure to bring personal supplies and necessities. 5 -10 min to marina guide fishing. Comfortable place. Easy in-out. No issues, contact by email or text. Ms. Sierra was there if necessary.

This condo was amazing. Our family had a great time. Loved that the pool was right outside of the condo and the beach was just a short walk for us. Would definitively stay here again.

We enjoyed our week at this condo. The two pools were a great convenience, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the beach was within walking distance. Well, walking distance for some folks, but an even shorter drive. Picking up a beach parking permit from the nearby gas station is easy enough. When we first arrived, the handle pulled right off the front door. While inconvenient, we reached out to have it fixed, but it never was resolved. We would still make it work, but just a heads up!

The property is close to the beach and the property overlooks the pool. One big disappointment for me was the coffee machine. I would have liked a better coffee machine. We had three vehicles with only two reserved spots but there was not an issue with the third parking.

Family of 11 stayed here and main call out is the limited kitchen supplies, we literally had to buy our own spices and foil, Tupperware at the local grocery store. There were no dishwasher packs. Limited kitchen towels. Kitchen amenities definitely needs a facelift. Also no complimentary beach towels and we requested extra towels and we were told to wash what we had. Linens are not the best grade so don’t expect a nice comfy bed with hotel Style bedding. Overall the location was great and the family had a good time.

This was our 3rd VRBO stay and it wasn’t the cleanest place we’ve stayed at. In the grand scheme of things, it’s a great location and a clean enough unit but there were a few issues here and there. The rug upstairs was cover in sand when we got there. The only vacuum was flimsy and cheap. One of the upstairs bathroom’s white shower curtain had reddish stuff all on the bottom. The last issue we had was the small amounts of stuff they give you. There’s hardly any kitchen stuff (no scissors) and they limit you on all the usable stuff in the unit. We guessed it was because it was a company rental but if I’m paying a couple thousand dollars for my stay, I would think it got me more than 2 trash bags, paper products and laundry pods (especially when I had to use one on their dirty shower curtain). Looking past those issues, we had a good time. Loved the pool outside the front door for our 4 year old.

The condo is great for a large group. Other family members were staying in other units and we had a great time at the pools. The location is great with easy access to the beach

Very nice inside, new remodel, good kitchen. Steps from the pool. One of the bedrooms overlooks the pool. The kids (4, ages 3 to 11) enjoyed the pool, the splashpad and the playground. We could not really relax with the noise from the pool, which was continuous at all hours. The walk to the beach wasn't too bad (5min fast pace or about 10 minutes with small kids and older relatives), but too far to go more than 2ce a day.
