What a wonderful property, location, and property management company!My husband and I stayed here for 4 nights with our daughter-in-law and 20 month old grandson.Very comfortable for all of us. Weather was in the mid-70’s most of the time and with the windows open at night we did ok without AC. I’m guessing that could be an issue with hotter weather however.LOVED all the outdoor seating. Kitchen was adequately stocked. Windandsea beach nearby is a beautiful beach and one of my husband and my favorites BUT not the best for babies/toddlers- but we knew that going in and just drove to a nearby beach for out main beach day.But the big surprise for me was how accommodating and responsive the property management company was!! We had a major flight delay on our departure date, and they were able to push the cleaning until 4 PM so that we could stay in the house until then- without me even having to ask explicitly!! That was a HUGE deal with a baby to accommodate for the day! Highly recommend Drift Vacation Homes!!One suggestion would be to stock the master bedroom bed with more pillow options. They had two sets of king size pillows on the king bed, and they were all the same firmness level. Unfortunately they were all very thick and firm and not particularly usable, at least for us. We were able to find some usable pillows in one of the extra bedrooms, but if we had been a larger group that wouldn’t have been possible and we would probably have had to buy some.

Enjoyed our stay

Overall, this property was clean and comfortable and is nicely located. We enjoyed the living spaces, especially the outdoor areas where we enjoyed watching the sunset. The walls are rather thin and noises are easily heard both within and outside the house. The bathroom in the main bedroom has a shower curtain for the door, which was a bit of a surprise. There was a clothes steamer which was a nice touch and came in handy. The check in and out directions were convenient and simple to follow. It would be a nice place to return to one day.

Perfect La Jolla Getaway

Our family really enjoyed our stay in La Jolla. The house was perfect for our family of 4, but could certainly accommodate more. We loved the rooftop deck for morning coffee and happy hour. There are also multiple other outdoor places to hang which is so important when traveling. Front patio, back patio and another deck off of a bedroom. The house was very clean and well stocked with everything you need. Lots of beach towels and beach chairs/beach umbrella. Check in was seamless and check out was so simple. Our only complaint is that we couldn't stay longer!

Quite and amazing location

We had a wonderful time, family of 5 in this beautifully appointed home. The two outdoor decks were wonderful for quiet time, as was the front of the home which was equipped with an outdoor shower and lounge sofas to relax after a day out on the water/beach. Just steps away from Windandsea beach made for a nice stroll every morning, and a very short drive to La Jolla shores as well as plenty of food options. Fabulous and and would stay again. This is located on a quiet street which is exactly what we were looking for.

Absolutely Wonderful 10/10!

Everything about this rental was perfect for our family of 4 (2 teenage kids). The house had everything we needed and more, the kitchen was well stocked, beds were comfy, and the ample patio and deck space made for great reading, relaxing, and spending quality family time together. There were also plenty of toiletries, fish and laundry detergent, and toilet paper. The location worked well for us, about a block and a half from the beach (amazing sunsets), a few restaurants and coffee shops that are walkable. The walk back from the beach is rather steep but luckily we are in good health and didn’t have any issue with it. I also enjoyed taking walks in the morning and taking in the gorgeous views of the ocean as well as the incredible homes in the area. We are from the east coast and in prior reviews others mentioned no AC. It was pretty warm (80 degrees) a couple of the days we were there and the house cooled down perfection at night and the no AC didn’t bother us one bit. We hope to return sometime soon!

Great Location

This location is great for a quiet foot traffic spot centrally located to activities from San Diego to Carlsbad. The property has amble room with multiple out door seating options. The two located on the main floor have shade and the front location offers a great option for relaxing after a beach day. The second floor patio is great and the rooftop patio offers ocean views. For those concerned about no central AC…welcome to So Cal. Keep the windows open throughout the day and you’ll sleep cool enough with or without the included floor fans. Our family would definitely stay here again!

Great location close to everything

This was a great propert for our family of five. The house was very close to the beach, and the beach chairs and beach towels were a great bonus. The house was well equipped and had a well stocked kitchen, dishwasher/laundry pods. The views from the top deck were great at sunset and the seating area over the garage was a great escape. From this location we were able to get to every family destination (zoo, sea world, Torrey Pines, Midway, Petco Park) in under 30 minutes. We would definitely stay again!

Lovely place to stay

The house is just as described. The photos all reflect reality. It is well located, light and atmospheric, and really close to the beach. Everything is well organised and whatever one my need is available. We used the grill, the upstairs roof terrace, the outside shower, and cooked nice meals in the kitchen. Time passed far too quickly and we regretted not staying there longer.

Great location and beautiful house

I stayed here recently with my husband, 6 year old, and 3 year old. It’s a beautiful house, located one block from a gorgeous beach and close to lots of restaurants and other sites in La Jolla. It is fully stocked with beach chairs, wagon, umbrella, and beach towels, as well a nice additions like shampoo/conditioner/body wash in the showers. My 6 year old also loved the bunk bed! We ate several times on the roof top deck which has views of the water. Wind and sea beach is right down the street, which is beautiful but not exactly kid friendly (big rocks and huge waves) so we would go to other beaches to swim and just walk down to wind and sea after dinner to watch the sun set, which was beautiful. The only surprise is that the house doesn’t have AC. We adapted pretty quickly, as it’s often 65-75 degrees there and you can be comfortable with fans and the windows down. But as east coasters we prefer our AC! The management was really nice too- they let me check in early and even dropped off another beach umbrella within an hour or two when I let them know it was missing. We had such a great stay here. Would definitely return if we come back to La Jolla.
