With its abundance of fine dining and shopping, resort-style amenities and superior oceanfront accommodations, the upscale San Diego community of La Jolla certainly lives up to the Spanish translation of its name: "The Jewel". La Jolla, California is desirably located just 15 minutes from downtown San Diego, but boasts a wealth of attractions all its own. Cultural destinations such as art galleries, museums and historical landmarks fill the area. La Jolla real estate owners enjoy numerous outdoor activities, including visiting the beach or any of La Jolla's country clubs and golf courses. La Jolla is also an excellent place to enjoy a spa treatment or a night out on the town.

La Jolla has plenty of attractive neighborhoods, each offering desirable real estate choices. La Jolla oceanfront real estate is of course extremely popular given the community's proximity to the beach, and home buyers who want to be close to the Pacific flock to the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) for homes in the La Jolla Shores, Lower Hermosa and the Beach-Barber Tract areas. Of course, home buyers can also seek estate homes with views of Mount Soledad, such as those in Hidden Valley and Country Club, as well as condominiums and town homes close to the numerous business, shopping and dining destinations in La Jolla Village.
