Top La Costa Hotel Reviews

California Suites Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great room great price and close to everything San Diego !!!"

Estancia La Jolla Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"This property is a beautiful complex. Lovely grounds, nice pool, nice restaurants, upscale rooms. That said, it’s expensive. Food and drinks on site are delicious but a bit overpriced. For example, the breakfast buffet is $45 a person without any alcoholic beverages and cocktails at the pool are around $20. We went there for our honeymoon and it was a very nice homebase for the week. Easy trip into the town of La Jolla to eat or into San Diego or Temecula wine country or even across the border into Baja California. There were a few times I wish the staff would have been more helpful but overall, it is a nice resort."

La Jolla Shores Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We got a great deal on the La Jolla Shores waterfront hotel, with a pool and hot tub! The price reflected the age and work that needed to be done. The food at the hotel restaurant was good but we didn't always have good service, and it was painfully slow! Otherwise, we had a nice, large room and bath area with a view looking down the coast, which is what we wanted!!"

The Seabird Ocean Resort & Spa, Part of Destination Hotel by Hyatt

10/10 Excellent

"This resort was exactly what we wanted, nice pool and beach view. The staff is EXTREMELY friendly. Pricing for parking is high, but you can seek other options if you are willing to deal with it resetting at 12:01am. Valet guys are charming. Food is pricey but delicious and really get what you pay for, with excellent staff at your service. One of our bags got delayed and the airline delivered to the hotel and they put it in our room while we were out and about. Sister in law took amtrak down from LA to meet us, station is 2 blocks away. You never hear the train at the property though. Great get away and all local restaurants were delicious. Bier garten and Craft coast bear and tacos were our faves..and dont forget Parlor Doughnuts!!"
