Why Concert-goers love it

Sands Of La Jolla strikes a sweet balance between buzz and calm. You’re close enough to catch a gig at nearby venues yet far enough to enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep.

Nightlife Options

La Jolla offers a more refined nightlife scene, with cozy wine bars, ocean-view lounges, and craft cocktail spots all within a short drive or Uber ride. For those who want to keep the music going, downtown San Diego’s vibrant club scene is close enough to explore, then retreat back to the calm of La Jolla.
