Every condo has a wall of windows with a patio door in the middle that opens facing the ocean. We get to see, smell and hear the ocean but are far enough back that we don’t get the people noise. You literally walk across the sidewalk then down the stairs to the beach. Every condo we have rented came with...

Top San Diego Hotel Reviews

Crowne Plaza San Diego - Mission Valley by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Quick check-in. Room was clean. Check out was super easy."

Wyndham San Diego Bayside

8/10 Good

"Location was great, near restaurants and entertainment. Great view of harbor from our room."

Hard Rock Hotel San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was wonderful and helpful. Food and both restaurants attached to the hotel was amazing."

Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"Exceptional stay. Clean, comfortable, well planned rooms. The only challenge was there was lots of construction - which is a positive because they're obviously keeping up on maintaining and upgrading the property, however the pool situation is a bit of cluster. There is a smaller pool open currently - but because there are two towers worth of rooms that pool has to service - it was crowded and impossible to find a place to sit down or even a spot to really move around in the pool and enjoy the day. Great location - walk out the back door and your in Seaport village, and right across the street is the Gaslamp District and Petco park. A lot of great things to explore in walking distance. Friendly, helpful staff. Great gift shops and market with everything you could need and more. Loved the scent being infused into the lobby. Just a lovely stay."

Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Downtown Little Italy

8/10 Good

"Spacious clean rooms with comfortable beds. Walking distance to great restaurants. It was a little loud being so close to the freeway and the parking garage ramps are tight for bigger vehicles."

Bay Club Hotel & Marina

"Great hotel! Super clean, super friendly staff! We will be back and recommending this place to anyone coming to San Diego!"

Bahia Resort Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is one of the best properties I have ever stayed out. Courteous staff. Clean beaches and amazing restsurants. . Just an awesome place close to the beach and amusement park. They even have a seal habitat on the property where they rescued blind seals. You get to watch and appreciate them while drinking your coffee at the excellent airstream cafe beside there habitat. 10/10 resort. Thumbs up from a Canadian."

10/10 Excellent

"Unique."

California Suites Hotel
