Top Dog Beach Hotel Reviews

Ocean Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

":)"

Bahia Resort Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beds were super comfortable, a/c worked really good in the room and there was a heat wave while we were there so that helped. Not the most updated hotel but we knew before we went and I don’t care that much about that as long as it’s clean. Which it was. Staff was friendly and helpful, the dockside restaurant has great food. Loved the cabanas by the water. Ordered a drink to our cabana and it turned out to be $40 Canadian so wouldn’t suggest doing that but just wanted to do it because I could. Location is fairly good. Not a ton of good restaurants in the area though. Dockside and the coaster saloon are my suggestions. Easy to grab a bus into town or uber. Halfway up Mission Beach towards Pacifica Beach are some good restaurants though. A bit of a walk but could rent a bike or take the bus."

Hyatt Regency Mission Bay Spa and Marina

8/10 Good

"Hotel and grounds were amazing! Only problem we had were no staff controling the wild kids at the pool area, running, screaming, splashing, jumping in and out of hot tub with no one watching them, made pool area hard to enjoy."

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great vacation rental for dogs! This is the first time we took our dogs on a trip away from home and they were scared. The hosts really made our dogs feel welcome as well as us. They really cater to your pets as they provide all the amenities of home for them. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality!"

Newly Updated Retro Beach Rental

10/10 Excellent

"Very comfortable, well renovated/maintained, and clean apartment on the second floor of the building. Everything was provided that one would need and more. The host occupy the first floor, so they are readily available if needed-but all was good. Located in walking distance of beach, restaurants, coffee shops, stores, etc..."

Beach Front Property! Newly Renovated 2/1

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect spot for Dog Beach fun!"

Beach Bungalow, Free Parking, 2 blocks to the beach

8/10 Good

"This cozy beach bungalow was perfect for our weekend in San Diego! It is an older building, so it was kind of warm during the heat, but there is an air conditioning unit provided in the bedroom which helped a bit. Due to the heat, the place can have a slight mildew smell, but when we opened the windows and aired out the place it was fine! Even then the smell wasn't awful.Plenty of amenities are included which was nice, including shampoo, conditioner, body wash, iron, ironing board, hairdryer, and hangers. We had initial trouble checking in as the lock code was not working, but even at 9:00 pm our host reset the lock and got us into the place in less than 10 minutes! I really appreciated the quick response. The place was very good walking distance to everything. About 5-10 minutes to local shops, restaurants, and the beach. Plenty of bedding and pillows provided. Overall, if you're looking for a budget-friendly cozy place and are fine with a older building and it's charm, this is the perfect place for you! I would definitely come back for future stays :)"

8/10 Good

"This is an amazing location. The view of the harbor inlet was gorgeous. Watching the boats, paddlers, seals, dolphins and airplanes was very fun. The beach/ocean front was just a quick 5 min walk. The boardwalk area is an easy stroll to all kinds of restaurants/bars. It was close to all the boardwalk fun but not in the direct mix so quiet. The host was very responsive to messages. Pros. Location, view outstanding, size (We had 9a/3c), 2 off street parking spaces, boat, airplane, wild life watching, kitchen well equipped, quite neighborhood. ConsAirplane flight path(the airport has night time restrictions ), not a lot of beach gear so bring your own, portable ac units in the bedrooms."
