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.

This is the top location my spouse and I choose to get away to each year. Beautiful grounds. Amazing accommodations. Fabulous staff. Gorgeoous spa that is also co-ed. It's fun to enjoy the spa together with my spouse. We couldn't ask for a better place to come relax and rejuvenate.

The resort has the best facilities and best staff in the country. The spa and workout facilities are unmatched, and all meals were excellent.

This property is amazing. I stayed with my husband and three kids and we had a fantastic time. Everything was perfect and the staff was wonderful. We highly recommend.

RV is the most exceptional resort we have experienced. A five-star, for sure! We loved everything - from the professional and gracious staff, delicious dining in The Pony Room, relaxing spa and meditative yoga sanctuary, beautiful grounds of walking paths and gardens, to the most luxurious accommodations in which to relax and dream - all make for a most memorable vacation in the hills of SoCal. It rained, so we missed playing on the red clay courts, yet they looked as nice as any that Rafa Nadal Academy would choose.

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.
