Great property overlooking the ocean not too far from San Diego. The room was very nice and spacious and actually had a balcony. While the food at the restaurant is good service seems to be slow. The views from the pool area are excellent and it’s a great place for an early evening drink. Overall we had a great experience here.

1/1/25: We couldn’t wait to jump in bed naked. Thank you housekeeping for taking our bloodied sheets. It was that time of the month but it didn’t stop us. Special thanks to Bob at front desk for being so helpful. He didn’t do sh*t. …………………………………………..

We stay here every Christmas and this was the first time I am writing a review. I would recommend servicing the exercise equipment, cleaning the workout room from top to bottom, and providing towels in the workout area; especially when we are being charged daily resort fee. I guess I would like to know what the resort fee is for when the items that fall under the resort fee are not maintained. This was the first time the hotel room was not as clean as it normally is. The floors needed vacuuming, the bathrooms needed cleaning-all of it. I understand that good help is hard to find, but prices keep increasing yet the services one receives are reducing at the same time.

Room was very nice and clean. Bed and bedding were both very comfortable, slept like a baby. Had a delicious breakfast at the Chandler’s restaurant. Self parking was easy and just across the street. Loved the area and definitely will be back for a longer stay.

Great hotel. Decorated beautifully for the holiday . Pool was heated, Had lunch and dinner at the restaurant. We stayed in a suite, plenty of space. The only one bad thing is the couch bed is very uncomfortable. Would of liked the wet bar to have wine glasses.
