What guests think

Spacious apartment with a magnificent oceanfront view. The beach is cleaned of seaweed daily making it pristine. The beach equipment that is set up by the beach staff is comfortable, beach towels are plenty, allowing for a relaxing beach holiday.

The rooms don't block outdoor noise, especially if you have one of the rooms that face the outside breezeways. You can hear everyone walking past your room, all the luggage being dragged across, etc. But being on the beach was amazing, and I love the option to reserve a beach bonfire space each day if you'd like.

I wish Expedia would have posted on their website that there were major renovations going on and it was noisy from 8 am on weekdays. Also all rooms are noisy since you can hear everybody in their rooms talking and walking around. Also you have to be out of your room by 10 am or they will not clean your room

This resort is one that I wish we booked elsewhere. For the price, there are so many better options. The resort is old and in need of renovation. Our room smelled like moth balls and your grandma’s house. It was clean at first but the white comforter had a big stain on it. The smell was very off-putting. Not sure if it was the old furniture, rug, but very musty. The location is nice with the beachfront but you can do so much better for the price. I wanted to check out after one night and go elsewhere but we had only one other night and they were charging me regardless. I called down and asked but they would have penalized me a night so we just stayed. So wished I had booked elsewhere. The website is high bar but does not match the atomsphere. And my biggest recommendation would be to just don’t stay here. Unless you like moth balls smell.

Booked King room and got 2 doubles which was a challenge with our 18 month old. However they were able to accommodate us with a pack and play. Not the cleanest floors and bed linens had some staining that they should have bleached out or not used. Also we stayed in room with kitchenette which was great but they had a bit of a roach issue that only presented at night. However the service was exceptional, the towels are soft, and the food from the grill restaurant is great. Very family friendly and nice direct beach access. Overall would recommend.

nice grounds, tennis facilities. pool -- nice in idea, but there was a used diaper on the edge of the kiddie pool, and a suspicious mark at the kiddie pool floor, trash scattered around (packaging from googles and such), so we stayed away. construction on site, our rooms were very outdated, with musty smell, and very poor noise isolation. booked 1 king room and 1 room with two double beds, but upon arrival we got 2 rooms with 2 double beds each, which did not work well for our party of 5. we did not need the kitchenette in our rooms, but would rather have a bigger dining table. overall, great place to come to as a tennis club, will never stay there again as a hotel.

Great beach location! The best in San Diego. Beautiful resort location in La Jolla. I was promised a garden view room and received a parking lot view instead :(. Book directly with the hotel for better rooms since they cannot guarantee third party incorrect room descriptions nor their reservations. Splurge for an ocean front room, it’s worth it!

Tiny room on parking lot. Very dated. Central air did not work so they had a portable unit in window, which effectively had an open window to the parking lot. All voices/noise in parking lot could be heard as well as other rooms, thin walls.

The amenities of the short golf courses, tennis, pickleball, cornhole, and more were a hit. The rooms were clean and spacious, and the beds were super comfy. The only thing to be aware of is that the rooms aren't luxury - though they make for a perfect stay at the beach with family!

First time staying here but won’t be the last. Literally has everything you could want on premise and surrounding. If you don’t want to eat on site walk right up the street and you have so many great food options. I will not be staying anywhere else when visiting San Diego. This place is older but awesome. Their first level Ocean front room was amazing. We stayed in 110 which was literally max 5 steps to the sand. We would open our windows and listen to the waves crashing. I can not say enough great things about this place. If your reading this and trying to decide if you should stay here or any other places in close proximity do yourself a favor and get an ocean front room here it will not disappoint. So many amenities that are worth it.

We had a wonderful weekend at the La Jolla Beach and Tennis Club. The location is ideal, the service was wonderful, and we just loved everything about it but the check in. Note to Expedia, the club doesn’t guarantee the bedding arrangement, which is highly unusual. We booked a room with two queen beds, and they initially gave us a room that only had one bed. The club was fully booked that weekend and it was a struggle for them to figure something out for us, but eventually they did and we were given a two bedroom suite. Whew! My step-daughter and are close, but we were not prepared to share a bed. The weekend was almost a bust, but instead turned out perfect!

We rented a BBQ and outdoor table service for dinner the BBQ never was started properly. We called for service several times and it never came. Fortunately we had another party allow us to use their BBQ. In the morning and throughout the day our first floor oceanfront room view was blocked by a stack of chairs and tables. Not really what you pay to have an ocean view of! Overall not the experience I had in the past or expected. A disappointment.

Beautiful view of the ocean and on the beach. The 2 bedroom 2 bathroom room was nice .The carpet was worn but clean. The restaurant was over priced but good. If you park on the street there is street cleaning days that will give you a ticket if parked there in the morning. The signs were hard to see at night because they were old and the words on the sign were worn. Luckily I was able to move it before I got a ticket. The lady at the front desk said we could park there but didn’t mention the street cleaning days. Overall the place was really nice. We would go again.
