Located in the charming community of La Jolla, just minutes from Torrey Pines Golf Course and 14 miles north of San Diego, Estancia La Jolla Hotel & Spa is a stylish retreat reminiscent of an early California ranch estate. The property - listed on Condé Nast Traveler's coveted Gold List and Hot List - pays homage to its rich history by emulating and utilizing materials from the original 1880s equestrian compound. The business center resembles the original caretaker's cottage, the intimate hotel lobby was created from the old farmhouse, and Mustangs & Burros, the hotel's rustic rancho-style bar, was inspired by the tack room. Even the restaurants reflect the old spirit in their design, menu concepts and gracious service.

I've been a vendor partner with Estancia for about 4 years now, and I just can't say enough about how great they are! Every corner of the hotel, from the courtyard, to the bar, to the gardens, is more stunning than the next. They prioritize native plants and artists with murals around the property, while still maintaining a prestine appearance. In regards to their annual Agave & Whiskey Festivals, I am a bit biased, but they are a must to attend! Each year has gotten better and better with the experiences that are offered, the decor, the food, and the vendors and brands that make an appearance. What is great about Estancia's team (Lauren especially) is that they take guest and vendor feedback into consideration for continued improvement of the venue and the events. Couldn't recommend more! Definitely visit while you're in San Diego, or make a special trip if you're a local for one of their events!

AMAAZING birthday experience!! Highly recommend for celebrations and a little splurge. I only stayed in the hotel and the balcony, I did not go in the pool or the spa but those seemed nice too! During your stay, I recommend trying out the different cafe and restaurants there! It’s all very convenient located.

Convenient location, helpful and friendly staff; hotel was clean and our rooms were very comfortable. We didn't have an opportunity to eat at the restaurants but the cafe was delicious. We will definitely stay at the Estancia La Jolla again!
