Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Del Mar/Solana Beach, hotel in Cardiff-by-the-Sea

This Courtyard hotel is just 100 meters from the beach and 0.5 miles from Solana Beach Amtrak Station. The hotel features a heated outdoor pool, a whirlpool and a spa.

The location was great. We were upgraded by you and the hotel gave us some money off in the end as there was a lot of noisy refurbishment being done at the hotel and there was no access to the pool. However everything else was great and we will return.

Park Hyatt Aviara, hotel in Cardiff-by-the-Sea

Escape to Park Hyatt Aviara on the San Diego coast of Carlsbad, a AAA Five-Diamond luxury resort just minutes away from LEGOLAND® California, Carlsbad State Beach, and San Elijo Beach.

The hotel is stunning, boasting impressive and tasteful decor. Every staff member wears a welcoming smile, and I was pleasantly surprised when the doorman remembered my name. I left a lasting impression when I quickly went out to buy a leash for my dog, showcasing their attentive service. The restaurant offers exquisite and delicious food, especially the wood-smoked grilled steak! The inclusive breakfast is rich, and the omelette is exceptionally tasty. I find it perplexing that some people describe the breakfast as average – what more could you ask for?
