Nearest Airport: SAN
We paid a premium price for a resort experience and apparently got the “vintage San Diego” package: musty rooms, dirty AC vents, limited TV channels, and enough duck poop to qualify as a wildlife preserve. We actually switched rooms because of the musty smell, only to discover that the new room had the same issue, just with nicer-looking furniture. The “smart” TV was about as smart as a brick. No casting, no streaming, no real way to watch anything except the handful of channels provided. Apparently, the TV and I have very different definitions of the word “smart.” The grounds could also use some serious TLC. There was trash, spoiled vegetation, and so much bird and duck poop that I started wondering if we were staying at a resort or renting a timeshare from the ducks. And we live in Florida, so we're not exactly new to birds. Even the water glasses on arrival were spotty and looked questionable. Not exactly the first impression you want when you're paying premium prices. Honestly, there’s a lot of potential here. Invest in some modern amenities, clean the AC systems, upgrade the technology, pressure wash EVERYTHING, and give the grounds some serious attention. Do that, and the property could absolutely be worth the money. Until then, lower your expectations, then lower them some more, and watch where you step. The ducks apparently own the place. 🦆😂

This place has gone down hill. We use to come during covid a lot, just before covid we discover it and they had the best well mantain sail boats in the bay. We kept coming until 2023 and today we went back, taking more family with us. We rented the Catalina 25 and it was DISGUSTING. Chips on the floor, no handles to use, terrible smell, the sink had a terrible smell and pieces of corrosion plus something definitely not cleaned for weeks. The floor was as bad as you can imagine, I would think they had not clean it for at least a month and no deep clean in a very long time and I can keep going on. On our way out I realized all the boats were in bad shape, not just this one. I had to take a shower afterwards cause I feel like the smell came with me in my clothing. It's sad how poorly maintain they are specially since I see the beautiful picture of how the boats use to be. Hopefully some day they can get new boats and keep them well maintained as in the past. It makes me very sad.

The location was very close to everything. I was able to go on a morning walk. SeaWorld is right over the bridge, definitely within walking distance, and having the convenient QR code to purchase admission was so convenient. The staff was amazing, always warm and welcoming.

We started our family vacation at Paradise Point - one of the things that stood out was the staff. Every employee we came in contact with was incredibly kind, helpful, and thoughtful. The grounds are beautiful and peaceful, and we loved the location on the bay. The food at every restaurant on-site was delicious. The rooms were clean and modern, however, the grounds by the bay did not appear to get cleaned regularly. The surrounding area is fantastic with so much to do!

Old and dirty Booked a presidential suite for $900 a night, and was disappointed with the room. Furniture dated, no central ac, white drapes turned black, toiled seat cover is was worn out and had nog been changed for years. Trash was thrown outside of the room next to the beachfront. Wish I could give 0 stars. I was there 20 years ago and looking and it was old, but from the pictures I thought they might of remodeled, but unfortunately not. Such a great setting 0 care for the space.
