"This incredibly charming guest room never felt anything but a private cozy hideaway. With its own entrance, restroom, and accommodating host - we felt so fortunate to have found the perfect home-away-from-home for our trip. The island is a beautiful slice of Americana, and the host George was accommodating and available any time we needed without ever feeling like we were imposing on him. With an incredibly fair price, Swiss Army knife of amenities, and in such an incredible location no matter...

"I loved everything about this hotel. The staff, property location, great amenities with 3 pools, hot tubs, and pickle ball courts. Free shuttle to downtown Coronado. Beautiful views of the Bay and Marina. Rooms are spacious and clean. Truly a wonderful resort getaway experience. We look forward to staying here again."

Handlery Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff, clean. Very happy and would stay again."

Bay Club Hotel & Marina

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, and we had a propane fire pit in front of our room and we were able to have dinner with an espectacular marina view."

Bahia Resort Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice location, beautiful views, but somewhat older buildings. The rooms could use an update, but they were clean and comfortable. The staff was very helpful any time we needed anything. The on-site restaurants and staff were actually very good, albeit somewhat expensive (but it's a resort so that's expected). The gym was very small, but worked fine for us since it was not crowded. The gym never had any hand sanitizer though and rarely had disinfecting wipes for the equipment."

San Diego Marriott La Jolla

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was clean , comfortable , and friendly!"
