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
Not the best luxury hotel to redeem your benefits in
There is a lot of hidden service charges. And make sure to check your bills -- I had to correct several pricing issues and non-applied credits. Once over the phone and finally at checkout where I noticed it still wasn't fixed. Staff is nice, but everything in this hotel is built to gouge you on prices even with credits. The hotel was very confusing to navigate too and I'm guessing they prioritize to do weddings and other events rather than people trying to use hotel credits from premium travel cards. (It makes sense business-wise since one will obviously net them more money -- but just keep that in mind if you are looking to use credits here.)

Beautiful and Peaceful!
This was my second time staying at Estancia and I love it! The grounds are beautiful and peaceful. The hotel was at capacity with a wedding as well as a couple of seminars and still it was peaceful. We came to spend spring break with my granddaughter who is at ucsd to have a relaxing spa getaway and spent a week. It was hard to leave! The staff are very friendly, helpful and kind. Stay here.

Stylish yet relaxing, top notch service and facilities
We booked this resort for a 1 night stay so we can visit UC San Diego (which is conveniently across the street). The property looks beautiful and classy. The moment we arrived we were greeted by the bell services and valet warmly. Check-in was a breeze and they completely honored everything promised by the American Express FHR program (which is how we booked this). The room was clean, well equipped and super comfortable. As a family of 4 we also greatly appreciate how spacious and well designed the double queen room is. We also had breakfast at the Greenfinch restaurant which served amazing food and great service. Overall, we were very pleasantly surprised and highly recommend this resort to anyone.
