About the Hotel
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.

Reviews for Estancia La Jolla Hotel & Spa
Family Friendly
If you don’t get a chance to see Phil and Gabriela at the bar pool you are missing out! They are easily the nicest and most accommodating people at the hotel. We loved the rest of the hotel, with its beautiful landscaping and calming atmosphere. They are so family friendly and we have had the best week. But seriously Phil is an Estancia La Jolla Treasure. Gabriela is a saint. Love this place!

Phil at the pool was the best
The pool bartender, Phil, was amazing. The service was excellent, he was so attentive with the needs of a family at a pool. We had a great time.

Friendly service, beautiful grounds
This hotel is located in an unexpected location, walking distance to UCSB, perfect if that's where you will be visiting. The most memorable detail is the landscaping throughout the hotel, it makes you feel like you are at a luxury European ranch. We spent a day at poolside and Andrea was the most amazing host, she made sure we had everything we needed and checked on us frequently. There is a bar and food service which is super convenient. I would definitely stay again when in the area.

Exceptional Service
We were in town for UCSD graduation and the location was perfect for a stroll over to the ceremonies. The standout feature of this hotel are their employees. The valet, bell hops, front desk and lobby bartender gave exceptional service. Hands down, this is the best service I have had at any hotel and I travel extensively! This is saying a lot considering they were completely booked. The grounds are impeccably groomed and gorgeous. Our room was clean, well maintained and beautifully decorated. The suite was spacious enough for us to have 8 people in it for a drink before dinner. Although the balcony opened up to the courtyard, the room and hotel were very quiet. Pool and gym were on the small side but were functional and perfect functional for a quick workout and dip in the pool. As far as value, you get what you pay for here. Room prices reflect the level of service and room we chose. I would highly recommend this Hotel and hope to be able to stay here again in the future.
