Beautiful house in great location!
My family stayed for a week with our 2 grade school aged kids for our spring break trip. From the moment we walked in, we knew we had made the right choice. The house is extremely clean, has modern appliances and updated bathrooms. Each of the rooms has great light from the windows. The bedrooms have comfortable beds and pillows. We were all so glad to have our own rooms as well as a comfortable, sizable living room to hang out in together. The rooms are all larger than they appear in the photos. We ended up having more meals at home then I thought we would, as it was so comfortable to stay "home". We walked to the beach (windansea) each night to play in the water and watched the sunset.
The neighborhood is quiet with many small and large homes. There is a convenience store and small set of shops/restaurants within a block or two. We also walked to the Children's Cove and downtown La Jolla easily, with the kids. We also drove to the zoo, Coronado, Sea World and the Birch Aquarium with fairly easy access to Hwy 5 from the house. I would highly recommend this house to any of my family or friends.

December 2012 stay in La Jolla
We stayed in this house late December 2012. Initially we had asked for a discount because only two of us were going to stay here.The request was denied, we were offered the house at full holiday fees. Since we paid full price we had 4 others stay with us. The onsite manager questioned this which we thought was strange. The contract to rent included a clause that we would be responsible to pay for extra water usage. The first and second day of our stay, the manager was washing clothes. We asked how is water usage kept track of if she is doing laundry? She said not to worry we wouldn't be charged extra. We were not. The manager lives on the property, it was unsettling to go into the yard and have her and her dog hanging out.
The house itself was comfortable. It sleeps 6 but in the dining area there is only seating for 4. So having meals together as a family was a challenge.
The area is residential, so it was quiet and close to a grocery store and some restaurants.

Owner's Response: Thank you so much for the review. As owner, I felt I had to follow up on your comments because we usually get 5 Stars everytime with many favorable comments about Barb and Blondie! I would hope everyone would read them to get a feel for the house. Barb works hard to be sure it is a good match for the guests with the house so everyone is happy.Yours was only a 5 night booking,usually we do require minumum 7 nights,but initially since it was only 2 persons,Barb went ahead and made it. The reason you did notice her doing laundry was the the Holiday season was back to back and the sheets,linens,towels,etc had to be ready for the next guest.Again,she thought this would be no problem with only 2 persons staying,but with 6,everything had to be clean and ready to go,since she had to clean for 6 rather than 2 after you left.Barb is fanatic about having the house clean for the next arrival and was nervous she could not have it ready.Barb also respects (and has been reminded!!)the privacy of all our guests in regards to use of the back yard. It has worked both ways,as she reminded me,that she get's knocks early in the morning on her back gate "wondering if Blondie can come out and play?"from children (and adults!) staying in the house.I think this is evident from previous reviews.But there are those times,complete privacy is preferred during your stay and Barb is the first one that wants to be clued in so your wishes can be respected.Again,we want guests to be happy on their vacation,the house is very pleasant and sunny with lot's of windows,a big fenced in back yard and perfect for those that want to enjoy a warm,friendly,relaxed vacation. A plus of having Barb close,is that problems that occasionally occur,can be dealt with immediately.Hopefully,next time you can find a house more matched to your needs and give it 5 Stars,but thank you for the input,as we can all learn from our mistakes!

Fabulous Home!
We rented this wonderful home while in town for our daughter's wedding. It was the perfect home for our celebratory week! The house has a cozy welcoming atmosphere that made us feel right at home. Everything we needed was there. Barb, the property manager was so friendly and helpful; just what we needed during this special time. Our family and friends also enjoyed Blondie, Barb's beautiful dog. This property is highly recommended; we'll definitely return!

Fabulous home
My husband, daughter and son in-law stayed in this fabulous home for 1 w eek in October. The home is well equipped with all kitchen supplies, towels etc. it is also located in our favorite part of La Jolla, walking distance to restaurants, shopping and the best beach in the area. The house is open concept and airy in feel, due to a large number of windows. The back garden was very pleasant as well. Barbie was very helpful and a pleasure to deal with...we fell in love with her dog, Blondie. We would definitely rent this home again. It was very comfortable. Felt like a home away from home.

Home Away From Hme
Our family of four rented the 'Pottery Barn' House for fall break! It was perfect for our needs! It felt like a home away from home! Barb the onsite manager, was very helpful and friendly! Our entire family felt like she was like family to us by the time we left.
The house was in a great location for the La Jolla community and a very quick commute to San Diego and other areas such as Carlsbad! It was so nice to come to the house after touring around and relax in such a well kept home! Our family would not hesitate to rent this home again if we are ever in the area again!

Perfect Family Vacation
This was our first time choosing a vacation rental home, but wanted something were we could bring our dog. The Pottery Barn house was the perfect set-up for my husband, daughter and I, along with a large golden retriever. Great to have the fenced in back yard- perfect for dog and nice patio to enjoy coffee/breakfast every morning. Easy walk to Wind-n-Sea beach as well as restaurants, grocery store and some fun shops. Central location made it easy for quick day trips to San Diego and the Gaslamp District, to SeaWorld and several trips north to Del Mar (great dog beach). Thanks to Barb for a wonderful visit.

Great vacation house!
My husband and I stayed in the Potterybarn house for a week with our two young boys. This house was PERFECT for us! There was a nice yard for our boys to run free and we had our dog with us to enjoy the outdoors as well. It's a short walk to the beach and so close to everything you need! Barb was great and answered all our questions. We will definitely be returning...soon, I hope!!

Wonderful!
This was the most amazing place we have ever stayed for a vacation! The house is absolutely perfect! We traveled with two small children, a teenager and the two of us. The house was perfect. The house was immaculate and we had plenty of room. Barb, who manages the property was so great to meet with us late at night to get us in and situated. She gave us information about the area and was around in case we had any questions. We will tell everyone we know about the Pottery Barn House who is going to vacation in San Diego. We miss it already and can't wait to go back. Thanks for everything!

Best vacation ever!
I just finished the most wonderful vacation of my 65 years. I had the good fortune to find the "Pottery Barn" house in La Jolla. The house was beautiful, extremely clean, beautifully furnished and in a great location. I felt like I was at "home'. The location was fabulous as well. I walked to the beach every day and to the village on most days. The neighbors are friendly and to top it off, I was able to have my golden retriever with me and use the back yard. The landscaping was recently completed and made for a great place to entertain. I can't recommend this highly enough. You won't be disappointed. If I could, I would give it 10 stars.

A Memorable Christmas
We arrived with our son, daughter-in-law and 2 young children for Christmas. We chose the Pottery Barn style house in La Jolla as we wanted to enjoy a Christmas together rather than in a hotel. The little house worked perfectly. We purchased a Christmas tree 2 blocks away and set the scene. The house was extremely well-equipped and everything worked very well. We were delighted to find the distance to the beaches, local parks and the town so close (we found Sammy's Wood-fire Pizza, a terrific Italian restaurant nearby, excellent and accommodating for young and old).
From the house too, it was an easy drive to the San Diego Zoo, Balboa Park and Legoland all an absolute must to see.
Barb was most welcoming and helpful and we would definitely stay there again.
