Top Encinitas Hotel Reviews

Comfort Inn Encinitas Near Legoland

8/10 Good

"Helpful staff. The water pressure was not good in the bathroom. Wish they change the carpet"

Brisa Pacific Hotel Encinitas

10/10 Excellent

"Great little spot, super close to the coast for an affordable price. Pet friendly! It’s clean, comfortable and conveniently located. Parking that accommodates my giant van. My go to spot when I come to Encinitas for work. Will definitely be back, have stayed multiple times. Always a great experience!"

Beautiful Oceanfront Sanctuary E952-0

10/10 Excellent

"We recently had the pleasure of staying at this large home perched high on the cliffs overlooking Beacon Beach in Encinitas on Neptune Ave. We were impressed by how clean the property was. We rented the top half of the house, which featured 3 spacious bedrooms/2 baths, laundry on the main floor & an upstairs master & full bath, along with a second attic style bedroom that could sleep 3 or 4 children & a rooftop jacuzzi.The layout was perfect for our group,w/ first floor large open kitchen & a living room that opened up to an expansive balcony. The outdoor seating area was delightful, providing us w/breathtaking panoramic views of the ocean & the coastline & front-row seat to the surfers at Beacon Beach. The upstairs primary bedroom was comfortable w/a private balcony and large shared bathroom. The second bedroom, which could accommodate two to three beds, was small. This room had a sink but does not have an en-suite bathroom, which means guests would need to share the master bathroom. This setup worked for our group but could be a consideration for larger families. One downside for us was the adjacent parking lot for Beacon Beach. At sunset, this area becomes quite crowded w/people gathering to enjoy the views, & we experienced loud music from a mobile DJ. Thankfully, everyone honored the 9 o’clock quiet time, but having a baby with us made it a bit challenging due to the noise. Many stairs. We appreciated A/C &Having the garage but it is VERY busy location on Neptune Ave."
