Hyatt Vacation Club at The Welk, San Diego Area
Amazing resort! We loved the room, with a kitchenette and a beautiful patio to enjoy morning coffee. Lots of fun playing pickleball, foosball, pool and foot golf. Many pools available and other facilities we didn’t have time to explore. We will be back!

DoubleTree by Hilton San Diego - Del Mar
Only one item that needs improvement is the parking lot situation. There is no parking during Saturday nights and the parking width is too narrow that you won’t be able to get out or inside your car if a car is parked beside you.

California Suites Hotel
Our room was right above the gate door and all we heard all night was the slamming gate door every time it was opened and closed all night and morning. It’s nothing special of a hotel. The towels are rough as heck
