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.

Nice hotel but service was horrible. I reported at the front desk that there is mold on our shower head. They said that they’ll take care of it. No one came so the day after I asked on front desk again and they told me that we had sign “Do not disturb” on our door but ironically we didn’t have this sign at all we had to request that as well and and they also told me that they sent me text message and guess what I didn’t received any message. I am doing big deal of it not because it’s 4* hotel but because we were there with our 7 months old baby and I definitely don’t want any mold to be close to her. Overall pretty disappointed!

The property is beautiful. The food is delicious. The staff is professional and authentically friendly. The rooms are exquisitely appointed.

I tell ya what, this place was GREAT. Beautiful property, and even better staff. We had Andrea at the pool and she was on top of it. Great service is what takes a day at the pool to the next level, and we will definitely be coming back here again for Andrea.

Andrea provided some of the best service at the pool during our stay. Incredibly friendly, fun and helpful!

This was our second time visiting Estancia. We traveled to SD for soccer nationals and it was once again exquisite! It is pricey but you get what you pay for. Wonderful staff, serene and calming environment and the grounds are just amazing! The only improvement I would suggest would be Mustang and Burros restaurant. The pool menu and food were great and I would suggest adding those menu items to the main restaurant menu. We visited the Greenfinch on our last day, and food was great as our last visit, as well as in addition to the local coffee pastry shop where we ordered daily for breakfast. Great visit and we plan to stay again on our next visit to SD !
