Top Encinitas Hotel Reviews

The Encinitan Hotel & Suites

The Encinitan Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent
"The reason(s) I would return to this hotel: The staff was impeccable. The room was immaculate. The kitchenette was clean, working and well equipped. Areas of improvement: Vending and ice machines were out of order. Onsite restaurant was under construction. Hot tub settings were broken. Breakfast area was below par. Juice dispenser was on the fritz. Breakfast options available were poor or non-existent. UNDERSTANDABLY, the hotel is situated less than a 2 minute drive in any direction from plenty of eateries and grocery stores."
