Great family vacation!!

We stayed at the La Jolla Shores Hotel for 6 nights. We have been spending a week at this property during the summer for the past 10 years. I understand some of the not so positive feedback from other reviews. However, from our previous experience as a family with kids this property offers the best and gets the highest marks for the different activities available for a family vacation. We love the security of the property, and the outstanding staff top the list. Yes, the property is dated; however, the location makes up for it all. Walk out of the room and step into the sand! The Beach Services staff (McKenzie, Kaleb, Jacob, Matt, and sorry if I missed others) do a great job of making sure the beach experience is fun and comfortable. The rest of the staff lead by the GM, Chuck Merriman, are accommodating and quick to take care of any issues. Our extended family decided to try our summer getaway spot this year, and everyone was happy. Nothing beats a run to the beach after a day visiting the many San Diego area attractions. As a business owner, I understand first-hand the challenges presented by the COVID pandemic. Struggles with staffing and supplies are a daily challenge, and I believe the same situation exists for most businesses. Given the situation, our experience was great as we believe the management and staff have done a great job to improvise and do their best given the circumstances. Our family, young and younger, have all had a great time. We will be back next July to continue our tradition. Thank you to everyone for your hard work and efforts!!

Birthday Staycation

This is our favorite hotel in SD to do a staycation at (so much this is our 4th visit), much accolade to Brittany in Marketing for getting this set up for us! My husband works nearby and it happened to be his birthday week, so why not! We came here last year for our anniversary with a beach front view. This year we did the coastal view and it was perfect too. Even during this trying time of the Coronavirus, it was much needed. We were able to spend all day at the beach with the help of the beach set up of umbrellas and chairs. My son and daughter loved being in the water and it was prime location to be how many feet away from the hotel. The attendants helped with my stroller and bags especially with 2 kids in tow. Although I lost my hat at some point, someone at the beach benefitted from it. If you're worried about last minute groceries there is The Corner Merchantile. Quite a few places walking distance for breakfast, lunch and dinner if you don't choose to eat at the hotel! Amanda at the Shores restaurant was awesome too! We loved Brick and Bell for pastries, especially the scones. Dough Momma Pizzeria has yummy margherita pizza and garlic knots, and Shore Rider for drinks! We love staying at this hotel and supporting the local businesses!

BEACH FRONT DREAM

What an amazing experience! This is honestly one of the best hotels I have ever stayed at in San Diego. You really can't beat the views from your room with the ocean view from your bed or the balcony. You take 10 steps out of your room and you are on the sand. You can stroll to the kayaking experience or walk to the pier. Fantastic shops and restaurants all around, or enjoy some of the amazing food the hotel has to offer. They also have pools, spas, ping pong tables, and so much more to offer. Highly recommend this hotel for your stay whether you are looking for a romantic getaway or a family fun experience!
