About the Hotel
Consistently ranked among the best of the best by editors of top travel publications, Rancho Valencia, a member of Relais & Chateaux, is a sanctuary for the senses. Situated in a bucolic region of San Diego near Del Mar, known for its polo matches and refined way of living, the resort has all the amenities needed for the perfect getaway. With its secluded location and bougainvillea-draped buildings, the intimate guest rooms are picture-perfect haciendas featuring a generous amount of square footage, hand painted tiles, mission-style fireplaces, exposed wooden beams, pitched ceilings and earthy stucco walls that are cool to the touch. The bathrooms, which are equally spacious and spa-like, are rich with tandem tubs and separate showers. French doors transition the indoors to a private outside garden where you are likely to find a sunken whirlpool or conversation pits for intimate entertaining.

Reviews for Rancho Valencia Resort and Spa
Reputation deserved
All items 5 star except wait times/service in the (restaurant) the pony room. Food excellent- service was not up to the task but they kept apologizing ( 2 meals). Room service was flawless. Will give them a pass as they nailed everything else during our stay!

Sensational Hotel
First time visiting RV. We will be back. This is a 5-Star facility in every way. The rooms are very spacious and the Pony Room was fantastic

Customer service was second to none!
My wife and I got marred at Rancho Valencia, and we both agree that we've never been treated so well in any hotel or resort we've been to. Immaculate grounds. Cozy ambiance. Attention to detail. And best of all, their customer service was out of this world. We were treated like royalty. And a shout-out to Rebecca Venturi for helping to make our wedding special and seamless.

A beautiful stay, impeccable service, amazing property
Rancho Valencia is the perfect escape from San Diego, from checking in at the gate house you enter an oasis. The service is spectacular, from check in to getting into the beautiful room. The rooms are spacious, modern but cozy, and the property is large but beautiful. The tennis centre is world class, and the walking paths have great scenery. The food is incredible at the Pony Room, busy for dinner but service never slips. The morning orange juice is such a nice, unique touch. Try Rancho Valencia next time you’re in the area, you won’t regret it.

Excellent service and comfortable stay
I’ve traveled to many places, but I find the accommodations inside their casitas to be one of the best we have experienced.

Great resort! The only negative thing I can say is that our time there was too short! We were first time Luxury Link users - the service, meals, accommodations all exceeded our expectations. We have nothing but good things to say about this resort, what a wonderful treat. We have recommended Rancho Valencia as well as Luxury Link as a result of this trip.
