4 year old had fun playing on the sand, making s’mores in the rooms fire pit, renting bikes in front of resort.

The pool isn’t big but it wasn’t overly crowded.

Definitely a family friendly place to stay.

They get everything right at this hotel. Formally a Hilton and built to those standards so rooms are quiet even the ones facing a major freeway. Rooms have been tastefully updated. The bed was firm, which I like my spouse thought they were too firm. Mission Bay itself isn’t the greatest body of water you’ve ever seen, but the resort does create a very inviting upscale atmosphere. Service is excellent, the in room Lavazzo espresso machines are as good as it gets for in room coffee. Resort fee. Cocktails and parking are high, but that’s to be expected at a property like this..

Beds were so hard and squeaked so badly. Absolutely no padding on them felt like we were better off sleeping on the cold tile floor. Coffee machine didn’t work and it took the maintenance guy hours just to fix the tv. We stayed in a waterfront villa paying $470 a night and I don’t think we will be returning. We had to go home and sleep we were so exhausted

Everything was great, the staff was super friendly and super helpful, the room was clean and spacious with my family of 5. THE ONLY thing we had a problem with was the hours of the two other bars/restaurant. Granted we went durn the week but the resort was still busy. The pool side bar was only open on Sunday and Plaza del sol was only open because there was an event going on. Plus the food menu was different at all three. Other than that everything else was amazing.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Property is beautiful - right on the Bay - with tons of fun activities right on site. Food in the restaurant was delicious. The only concern was the loud music that was being played in the park next to the hotel until 9:45 p.m. on Sunday night. But that was it.

The fire pit that was at the jr. suite was great, our son had fun.

The online downside to our stay was our king size bed. The mattress was uncomfortable, we recently stayed at the Yaamava resort and the mattress felt like a cloud. The box spring was also outdated.

Stay was alright. We went during the end of March but seemed that some families were still on spring break as the pool was quite busy all days we were here. The food on site was not that great, and nothing is really walkable since it’s a little secluded. But quick drive will get you some better food. The coffee was pretty good but that’s it, the pastries and the sandwiches they offered were so mediocre and look like they just sit there. The hospitality was lacking. Rarely any one ever said hi to us, even upon checkout, they just handed me the receipt and didn’t even ask how our stay was. Overall the room was clean and it is well located with a short drive to the beaches and zoo. Nice parks with big playground walking distance.

Wading pool for little ones, bigger pool for adults. Onsite yoga, but be sure you check where it will be held; it moves around. The staff is excellent, checking in via text to make sure you have everything you need. Just one front desk person was a bit off-putting. She seemed annoyed by questions.
Coffee shop is very friendly, but the food and espresso is so-so. The Cove restaurant is really quite amazing. Locals we talked to say they go there just for the restaurant.
The walking path is GREAT, and leads to Mission Bay Beach Club, which has better breakfast and espresso.
We would go again!

Activities for all ages. Restaurants were good but pricey. The scheduled events like movie night and smores were a letdown, felt cheap and forgettable. Room was okay but there was a leftover sock and toy from previous people when we got there and a strange clicking sound in the bathroom every 20 seconds. Also no overhead lighting and no way to turn off the patio light at night.

Positives: Beautiful room, beautiful area, beautiful pools and hot tubs. Cleaning services were very responsive and did a great job.
Negatives: AC didn't work, but it did provide white noise to drown out my family's snoring. Shower leaked water out and we did our best to have towels down to minimize any damage. Pool was cold during the 4 days we were there. Because of that the hot tubs were over used and needed more cleaning.

Rooms near the pool were appreciated. Coffee shop needs improvement with preparation. I feel there were so many people ordering the staff was flying through preparing orders which lead to coffee drinks that we couldn’t enjoy because they tasted so bad. Cleaning staff showed up very early all the days we were there so that was a bit annoying. Property is great though and because of that it’s our go-to resort.

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. Everything was extremely clean and the staff was very accommodating and friendly. The location is perfect to get to Mission Beach, Belmont Park and Old Town San Diego. The kids enjoyed the pool and the amenities, and I really enjoyed the gym. They had serviceable pelotons in there which was a bonus for me. My only complaint would be the beds were too stiff for me, but when I mentioned this to the staff, they added extra bedding and it made a big difference! We would definitely stay there again.

All-Inclusive to Mexico is better. This resort is a nice way to step away from the crowds of tourists at the parks and surrounding areas. However, public furniture is dirty and overused. Prices are typical for California….2x the prices at other tourist destinations in the western states. The pool is nice, but too small. Hot tubs are crowded with kids under 13. Too many young families here. If you have teens find a different place. The water level at the bay is also low and sandy beach is dirty.

Stayed on the second floor of two floors. No elevator access where we stayed. Had to take our stroller up and down stairs every time we left. Pool restaurant and bar closed at 5pm. Pool is salt water and not heated. Beautiful resort and very well maintained. Staff were fantastic. Recommend for anyone with kids, San Diego Zoo and Sea World we’re about a $15 Lyft away. $45 Resort fee per day is ridiculous because it is taxed at 15%

There appears to be an issue with the plumbing—every time a toilet was flushed, it made a very loud noise that sounded like the whole toilet was falling through the floor. I was also overcharged for parking after checkout, despite advising the front desk that only one night should be billed. I’ve reached out by email and through Expedia and have not received any response.

We tried out three rooms: 220/222 and 307. All faced the court yard and bay and so the views were nice. The 200 series rooms had a musty odor that did not go away. They were a little dated and one of the beds had an old frame that squeaked. The 307 room was on second floor and was very nice. Updated and nice carpet and white, wood trim. All rooms were quiet. Did not hear much from the neighbors. The staff is amazing. Very kind, helpful and eager to please. The two on site restaurants are very good. And the prices, to me, seemed very reasonable. We loved the pool area. Plenty of seating and one can order food and beverages and they are brought to you. You can also rent a Cabana, which is nice. Overall, we really enjoyed this resort and would definitely recommend it. They just need to upgrade some of the older rooms and slap some paint on the exterior and it would be top notch!

This resort was the absolute worst resort I have ver been to in my life. Right when we entered our room there was bloodstains all over the ground, meaning they didn’t mop. I asked what the standard was and she said they vacuum and mop. That’s false, our room was not vacuumed or mopped and the one they moved us into was the same thing, but I drove 9 hours from the Bay Area to come splurge on this hotel because we haven’t vacationed in a very long time so I said screw it let’s splurge on the resort because I wanted my girls to have a good time. It was horrible we stayed out the whole day and only used it for sleeping and when we checked out the pools and it was absolutely disgusting. Oh, when I complained the supervisor didn’t reach out, no one cared, not one comment.

My stay at this hotel was just average. The hotel itself is pleasant, but nothing extraordinary. Upon arrival, I was charged $400, which included resort fees and parking. While this amount seemed excessive for a three-night stay, I suppose it’s what you get for a resort. The rooms were also ordinary, nothing to write home about. However, the housekeeping was satisfactory, and the pool area was charming.

The resort is very nice and in a great location. My biggest complaint is the FREEZING pool and TINY hot tubs. No one wants to be in the pool because it’s too cold, and the hot tubs are over crowded. For such a high resort fee and high parking cost I would expect the pool to be heated. The pool service also closes too early. I honestly probably wouldn’t come back just for that reason alone.
