La Jolla Shores Getaway

Overall, a FANTASTIC vacation experience! Eric manages several vacation properties and about a week prior to our planned vacation we experienced a potential issue with our plans. Eric remained in constant contact with us and went to extraordinary lengths to make sure that our family was taken of. Not only did Eric ensure that our trip remained on track, his efforts lead to an experience far better than our family had originally expected. The Property: The La Jolla Shores property is ideal for family vacations. The house easily slept all eight of our family members (six adults, two kids), with a large shared master bathroom, a medium sized downstairs bathroom, and a small powder room. There are two separate living rooms (first and second floor) which allowed the adults to socialize even after putting the kids to (URL HIDDEN) least we could have if we weren't spending the evenings on the rooftop deck enjoying the sunsets and ocean breezes. This property includes everything that a family needs for fun filled days on the beach, including boogie boards, a paddle board, beach chairs, umbrellas, and even a beach wagon to help make the short 2 block trip to the water. The Area: La Jolla is an upscale, family friendly community. As Eric told us before we made our reservations, many of the beach communities closer to downtown San Diego have a different atmosphere with more nightlife and closer proximity to attractions like Sea World, but without the beaches of La Jolla. La Jolla is only about a 20 drive from the activities of downtown (airport, zoo, Sea World) but presents a much more relaxing experience. The powder sand beaches, bordered by public parks with picnic tables and grills, are meticulously groomed. The shore offers something for everyone with Seal Rock to the south, a surf line great for wading, boogie boarding, and surfing, and tide pools for observing sea life up close to the north. Just off the beach and about a 10 minutes walk from the house is the main street of the community with shops, tours and rentals, and restaurants galore. The bottom line is that if you are looking for a family friendly vacation destination where you can relax into the beach lifestyle, this location can't be beat!
