This is the best place we’ve rented. It had everything. The house layout was perfect, the beach access was as amazing, and the pool was magic. The weather was not very nice to us, with highs in the high 50s and lots of wind. Because the pool was tucked into a courtyard, the kids were able to swim every day. And we kept the double doors open in the kitchen all day. I can’t wait to stay there again!

Amazing location, wonderful space, the beach access is unreal, and the pool courtyard is perfection. I can’t wait to stay here again!

Our mix of family and friends visited before Christmas. It was amazing! The heated pool was perfect even for our 50/60 degree weather. The spa was toasty in the evenings. The views were amazing. The location was the best. The beds were comfy. The home was well stocked. We rented a golf cart, expensive, but worth it. Yard great for kids. We used the inside and outside fireplaces daily. Property managers were very responsive. 5 stars all around.

Great views, great home, great location!

Thanks so much we had an incredible stay. The house was more then we could have asked for. Perfect for a multi family group. Location was incredible close to everything with just a scooter ride away.

Wonderful home in a beautiful location. Property management was great. Can’t wait to return.

We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay, highly recommend.

This property is truly special. Unbelievable ocean views, and sounds of crashing waves. The pool was great for the children. We found the kitchen very well stocked with plenty of utensils, dishes and pots and pans. We all agreed that we would love to return

Expensive place to rent but view is wonderful. Stair access to the public beach is a bit steep. Property management not very helpful when trying to determine any amenities. They also forgot to send us our access code. Place was also not quite ready on time. Go for the view but not the customer service!

The house is well stocked & the view is spectacular! The management implant was very responsive & had excellent customer service. Would stay there again!

Very clean and comfortable. Beach access was great. We didn't even need the pool heated. We are already planning on renting it again next year!

This was such an enjoyable experience! The house is amazing, the views are just stunning from every room except one. It is stocked with just the right amount of amenities and starter supplies. I have zero complaints. The property managers were responsive, warm and welcoming. I would 100% recommend this property to anyone looking to stay in La Jolla.

We selected this home for its location and space and it worked well for 6 adults and 3 grandsons. We walked to dinner one night and cooked in the large kitchen when we weren't out and about. The first night was rather fraught as the large oven we needed to bake pizza and cookies didn't get quite hot enough. When we texted Stephanie the next morning, she immediately sent someone over to take care of it and a door that wouldn't lock. The door was fixed but the oven required a technician who came the next day and fixed the oven. The refrigerator and counter space worked well for cooking. When we weren't eating outside on the lovely oceanfront deck (our favorite place for breakfast and coffee and sundowners) we could all gather comfortably around the large table inside. The house includes an ample supply of glasses, dishes and cutlery and a wine cooler. The three master suites worked well, although as another reviewer pointed out, the master bath on the main level is a bit dated, but it worked well enough. The rooms for the grandsons also had ensuite bathrooms which sped up showering etc. Loved the fact that the pool was in a spacious side courtyard and protected from the ocean breeze. We enjoyed the pool and the spa, although we were surprised when informed a week before our arrival that heating the pool would be extra; there was an inconspicuous note on the VRBO listing that we missed. There was no indication that it was an option on the rental form unlike other VRBO homes we have rented. Spa heating is included and there were plenty of pool/beach towels. We had a great time and would happily go back.

The home was larger and nicer than the pictures. The views from the home are incredible. It is located on a dead end street but very close to everything. You have to walk over the rocks to get to the beach, but the beach and the tide pools are very nice. The heated pool was also a great feature. The home is very comfortable and roomy. I would highly recommend it.

we were never told the beach had washed away and we also had some one from the management co enter our rental with out telling us bad

We rented this house for a 3-generation family vacation and it exceeded all our expectations. The house was lovely and the location was perfect for us. The house seems to sit right over the waves--local surfers provided the entertainment for our dinners on the spacious main deck. The home's 3 floors easily accommodated all of us-- Grandma and two young families with a total of 5 children ages 18 months to 5 years--with large spaces where we all could gather for meals and family time, but also privacy for everyone when needed. The highlight for the children was the beautiful pool area where we spent almost every afternoon. Restaurants and shops were an easy walk from the house, which is in a neighbourhood of charming homes and gardens. This was a very special vacation for us and we all agreed that this house made it all the more memorable. All of us agreed that we would love to be able to return one day.

My husband & I live in the San Diego area but not on the beach. As a surprise, my husband booked this AMAZING house for my belated birthday celebration along with several couples. He was able to come to La Jolla & physically look at several beachfront properties before making his selection & while there are others that were more “upscale” or “fancy”, most were on cliffs above the ocean. My husband said there is nothing that is better for the beach & beach access than this house. Additionally, this house is a true California beach house that has the tradition of the Mexican/Spanish heritage of the state complete with Mexican terrazzo tiles throughout the house which made us not worry so much should we come in with a little sand on our feet. The comfort & charm of this house is evident once you enter & the views will truly knock your socks off. You are literally ON the ocean…walk through the house’s seawall gate & you are ON the sand. To the left is one of the best surfing spots in all of California (our son is a surfer) & to the right is THE best body surfing & swimming beaches in the area. There are certainly other beaches in the La Jolla area, this one is more shielded from the masses of public beach traffic that we get when we go to the Shores. There is some construction going on around the house, but, it didn’t bother us too much as that is the case in most all of San Diego’s nicer neigborhoods & we spent a lot of our time on the ocean front patio an the beach. Bluewater Vacation Homes were SO awesome, and they helped my husband set up a masseuse who came to the house! We will definitely come back!

We stayed here over Spring Break last week! The house is spacious! It is a older home but mixed with new appliances! It was perfect! The kids loved having the pool! The days we were in La Jolla the weather was foggy on the beach, so the kids swam a lot! It really is the BEST location! We loved it. The construction next door starts every morning at 8am during the week..that is the only reason I didn't give the house the best possible rating. I do recommend it!

We were extremely disappointed with the house. It's in a great location, but is an old house that is not well maintained. The listing says the property is air conditioned, but in reality the house has several large (loud) floor AC units. The windows and doors on the beach side are covered in cardboard and duct tape to allow for the AC venting. This prevents you from opening them and enjoying the beautiful view. There are extension cords strewn across the floors to power the AC. When we arrived, one of the cords was lying in a puddle of water leaking from the AC unit. With small children, we were extremely worried. Additionally, when we arrived, there was no power on the 2nd floor of the house. When we contacted the management company, we were asked if we could just use our cell phone flashlights for the night. House was missing basic amenities such as wine opener, coffee filters, and dryer sheets. When we contacted the management company asking for a wine opener, they sent us a link to a YouTube video on how to open a bottle of wine with a shoe. Windows and deck furniture were old and dirty. I just wish I could post photos. In summary, this is not a "luxury" rental by any stretch of the imagination. There are plenty of other beautiful resorts and houses in the area that are well maintained and have much nicer amenities. NB – One of the reasons we decided to rent this house was due to the glowing reviews from past visitors. When we contacted the management company regarding the issues we were having, they told us that the house had recently been purchased (prior to our stay) by a new owner and they have had several complaints since then.

We rented this beautiful beachfront beach house in La Jolla from Bluewater Vacation Homes this past weekend. The house was perfect; it was very clean, the photos were accurate, and we had a great time! Bluewater was very responsive and communicative, and remained on call to answer all of our questions, and were extremely helpful. We traveled with a lot of children, and it was well worth it. We will definitely be back, and would definitely recommend this rental company!

This house is better looking in person if you can believe that. The very nice reps met us at the house and walked us through. They assured us if there were any problems to give them a call. This was a great experience and we plan on coming back. They gave us the names of rental companies they work with and they had some surf boards and SUP on site when we arrived. The only work I had to do was cook, because I didn't ask for a chef. The beach was basically all ours, and it was memorial weekend! Kids loved the critters in the rocks and playing in the sandy surf beach. We left the back door open in the master up stairs at night so we could listen to the crashing waves and feel the cool breeze. All the basics were supplied just like a resort. Cant wait to use this company again.

Bluewater vacation homes - Villa La Playa Amazing! A total R&R holiday at this stunning home in Carlsbad! Villa La Playa is exquisitely furnished and oh so accommodating! The private grounds are beautifully manicured with lush floral & foliage at every turn! Anything we needed or wanted was at our fingertips. The fire and ice pit was fantastic for intimate settings as well as entertaining for a larger group. The beautiful photos reflect exactly what is waiting for you and then some! We all got to relax in the hot tub and embark on a little canoeing and stand-up paddle boarding (everything kept right there to be used at our disposal!). There was so much to do and see right from our private beach. This property was truly paradise and we will definitely be returning! Donna and Mike pampered us from the minute we arrived until the minute we left! They both went above and beyond and were so very gracious and accommodating – making us feel as if we were in our own home –our stay was truly worry-free and absolutely fabulous. I can’t say enough about what a fantastic & relaxing time we all had. Honestly I did not want to leave! This place was badass!
