Estancia La Jolla Hotel & Spa

The setting for this resort is gorgeous and the grounds are lovely. Our room was as described and both the bed and the shower were great. We were appreciative of the fact that they were able to extend our stay one night as a result of our flight cancellation. The pool area was good, though the seagulls also swimming in the pool wasn't ideal. If that was the only issue, our rating would have been a five. The customer service left much to be desired, and the accounting office was at times inept and other times simply confused. The fact that there is not a microwave available unless one is willing to pay a $30.00 fee is ridiculous. Surely the $49.00/daily resort fee could cover the use of a microwave either in one’s room or in the public gathering area in the lobby. We were not informed at check-in about the enhancements for purchase—and luckily inquired that first night in time to take advantage of them. Folks should know that reservations seem to be required for breakfast-unless one is willing to wait 45 minutes. The front desk told us that the regular breakfast menu would be available on the weekend as well as their brunch menu. That was not true. The ice water by the pool was removed in mid-afternoon on Sunday and there were no towels available for a while at the pool either. Individually, these are all small things. Added together they make a very lovely resort into a less than desirable spot. I am hopeful that the management will address these issues.

Exceptional clean hotel resort. All food experiences were exceptional except mustang dinner Resturant. Skip Mustang s at all costs. Everything else on the property is excellent.

Came here for a weekend getaway with my mom. Had a great time! Beautiful resort. They went all out for the holidays, the decorations were great. They had a holiday bar as well that was super cute. I’d come back.

We had such a great experience at Estancia La Jolla thanks to Phil, the bartender. Even though the kitchen wasn’t open at the time, he went completely above and beyond—he kindly offered us complimentary drinks and still made sure our food orders were put in. Phil was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely attentive. He turned what could have been a frustrating situation into a memorable and enjoyable evening. Service like this truly stands out and reflects the best of hospitality. We’ll absolutely be back and hope to see Phil again.

From the moment I arrived I felt like royalty. The grounds were so serene annd picturesque. I love the fire pits everywhere and plenty of outdoor seating for relaxing in the gardens surrounding the property. The staff did everything to accommodate any requests I had and were willing to help with anything I needed which made the stay so comfortable. The room was perfection, beautifully decorated with a cozy nook with a table. Bathroom was stunning, most definitely recently renovated. I loved the bathing products supplied. My Room was facing the garden with a balcony which was lovely. The bed was so comfortable. I loved the coffee machine in the room as well as 2 bottles of water daily.
