6. Capri by the Sea by All Seasons Resort Lodging

Pacific Beach

"We have stayed at Capri by the Sea multiple times throughout the years and have never had a bad experience. Our favorite thing about it is location at the end of the boardwalk on Pacific Beach. Every condo has a wall of windows with a patio door in the middle that opens facing the ocean. We get to see, smell and hear the ocean but are far enough back that we don’t get the people noise. You literally walk across the sidewalk then down the stairs to the beach. Every condo we have rented came with...

"We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful, clean and modern home! We fit 2 families in this home comfortably. The room with 2 full beds was large enough to fit 5 kids/teens. We did bring a queen air mattress and there was still enough room for 1 more. There was enough bath towels and beach towels for everyone. We utilized the washer/dryers as well. We appreciated the cleanliness of the home as well as the modern touches. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. Even had a meat...

Top Pacific Beach Hotel Reviews

Ocean Park Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay here. We had a oceanfront room with a patio on the first floor. We loved the patio, the security of sitting out there with a glass partition, overlooking the ocean. The rooms are well designed, light and bright. The bathroom is spacious with plenty of room for 2 people. Our only complaint is that I booked and paid for a king-sized bed via the Hotels.com app; we did not get the king bed. Expedia owns the app and seems to send erroneous information to the hotels about bookings. We’ve had an Expedia-furnished glitch before this week. All in all, we really enjoyed it."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham San Diego Mission Bay

10/10 Excellent

"This is an excellent place to stay; the rooms are very clean, spacious, and free of any unpleasant odors. The outdoor pool and jacuzzi are also spotless. You can spend hours relaxing after a long day in San Diego's parks. And best of all, it's close to all the city's attractions."

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott San Diego Pacific Beach

10/10 Excellent

"My family and I stayed at the hotel over the weekend 24-26th. Pros: Very Clean, AC, Free parking, complimentary breakfast, close to the beach, freeways, shops, dining, SeaWorld, and park across the street. Our room was very spacious and very clean! We saw housekeeping in the hallways daily. We really liked the fact that they had a little convenience store in the lobby and ice makers on each floor. We ordered food from door dash and they were able to easily find our room. The overall experience was good. The only I experienced was some of the girls at the front desk can be a little short, but some are super sweet. We also appreciate the check out being at 12. Price for Value can’t beat it! 😊 Trip typeVacation · Family Rooms5.0Service4.0Location5.0 Hotel highlightsQuiet · Kid-friendly · Great value RoomsSpacious and clean.
