Top South Oceanside Hotel Reviews

DoubleTree by Hilton San Diego - Del Mar

10/10 Excellent

"The cookies!"

Hyatt Vacation Club at The Welk, San Diego Area

10/10 Excellent

"It’s practically turn key everything we needed plus more was in the condo. Full kitchen, bath, washer/dryer, 2tv’s , couch bed, dining area and patio with 2 large rocking chairs. Very quiet, beautiful hilly grounds. Take your walking shoes or be prepared to drive around the grounds depending on where your room is located. The canyon grill was good food and drink, couple snack shops, not much to do but pools and relaxing but close to San Diego for entertainment if that’s what your looking for"

Hotel Avenida - Oceanside Camp Pendleton

2/10 Terrible

"Where do I begin? Bb gun shots on the door, dusty furniture, stained bed sheets, stained crown molding , floors, walls, etc. Grimy shower, clogged sink, dirty pool, with floating pieces inside......disgusting overall establishment that needs to be inspected by city. Homelessness surrounding cars...the ksut goes on and on..... overall a very sketchy.....do not stay here, especially with a family!"

LEGOLAND California Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"As the first timer, the resort was a lot to unpack! Just know that that is a lot going on visually and audibly when you walk into the lobby and through the restaurant. I do however appreciate that once we got to our room, everything was toned down enough to unwind. I would definitely stay again. There was a temporary power outage, but I had to believe that that was a one off. Other than that, it was so convenient to go to and from the park as well as go down to eat. My kids had a blast!"
