"It’s a beautiful quiet place. The staff were super-friendly. I stayed in a lodge room, and it was totally fine. The grounds are very pleasant. Breakfast and happy hour included. My only real criticism is that breakfast is from 8:30-10, and I think that’s too late. It should start at least at 7:30. "

GetAways at San Diego Country Estates
3.0 star property
9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (36)
"We stayed a few times at the property, both in 1Bdrm and 2Bdrm units. SD Country Estates is an older time-share property, which means that units are quite generous in size, very nice but show their age (mostly on the appliance and fixtures side). However, there are extremely clean, well-equipped and maintained, and very welcoming. Amenities are fine, the pool small but pleasant and the place quiet and relaxing. It is not easy to find (not a good idea to come after dark), quite far from the town...
