    Private beach is nice . King room size was good.

    The room smelled horrible, like wet dog. I know it’s San Diego and it’s humid but we have stayed at other resorts in the area and didn’t have that issue. It’s definitely an older hotel and is pretty expensive considering how old it is. The bathroom was small and the drain was broken so we had to bathe our kids quick before the water drained. We didn’t do baths until 2nd night there and didn’t want to switch rooms after being settled in. The morning of check out, we were loading the car and took the kids to play and when my husband went back to the room to get the last of our things, they were already in there cleaning our room! It was before 10:00 am and we hadn’t checked out yet. check out is at 11:00. I guess because the housekeeper saw us with some bags and our kids they assumed we were gone but they should have verified before going in. We even still had the do not disturb sign up. For what I paid for 4 nights with a resort fee, it wasn’t worth it overall in my opinion. We still drove everywhere we wanted to go since we have 3 small children and it had to haul too much stuff to walk. I would recommend staying somewhere else that is cheaper. The price was not worth it.

    It’s close to sea world and the beach though I don’t recommend walking to either one. There is a restaurant on site but it’s very pricey and wasn’t consistent as we went 2 nights in a row for convenience and the second night was not as good as the first and we ordered the exact same dishes. We didn’t make reservations in advance but they were always able to get us on the list. We just checked in after swimming and then went back to the room to get ready because it was always at least an hour before we could get a table. The pool area and hot tub were nice and there is a small playground for kids on the property which was fun for my kids. Parking was free and we could get a spot fairly close to our room if we parked before 5-6. If we got back any later than that, we would have to park pretty far from the room.

    felt the price was a little high compared to what you get- no smart TVs, to connect to Netflix you had to connect a laptop with an HDMI cable and then pay 59 a night for Internet speed that could stream video, pillows could have been newer,

    location was great easy access to everything, rooms were clean, beds were comfortable, staff were exceptional,

    Rooms are outdated and would have been nice to have Netflix or similar avail as we were rained in for one day. Fitted sheet didn’t fit so kept coming off while sleeping. The outlets in bathroom would pull away from the wall when unplugging a device. The bathtub faucet kept running. The fridge wasn’t cold when we arrived. Upon check-in the staff chatted amongst themselves rather than help incoming guests.

    The view from our room was amazing and the location is convenient.

    It's sad that Parents don't obey the rules and watch their children. We had an incident with unaccompanied minors in the Jacuzzi. They were doing belly flops in the shallow water disturbing everyone else and when we asked them to leave, the flipped us off. There parents were not even in the pool area. They were in their room.

    We had a wonderful time. The Resort is Beautiful.

    The pictures of the room on Booking.com were not of the room I thought I was getting. Apparently they use the same pics for different rooms and I didn’t double check website to make sure of what I was getting, but overall the room was still very nice.

    The property is beautiful and well maintained. Private beach is great. Room was very clean.

    The room we were put in faced the public beach, which really wasn't bad, but the old metal doorwall frame wasn't good at keeping noise down.

    The dockside restaurant was fantastic. The staff was excellent.

    A noisy area because of where the room was , dogs were unattended in the room next to us, barked every day. I believe left alone. Probably should have reported it.

    The room was a little warm, as if AC just couldn't cool the room. Main areas were a little dated and could use an update (carpeted steps, etc).

    The location was perfect. Liked being able to see the water out of my room. Loved the landscaping on the property. Very secluded.

    The bathtub drain needed to be replaced. The overall bathroom facility did not match the standards of the rest of the room or site.

    The site is well planned for families as well as singles. Pool was large and well maintained. Room was large and excellent bedding. Food at the restaurant was excellent. Staff were very friendly.
