"The location is okay, up in the mountains. You can drive directly up. It's about a ten-minute walk from the hotel to a street with plenty of food options. A little further on, you can reach the beach. The room facilities were a bit damp; there's room for improvement."

"Located next to the train tracks this somewhat shabby hotel is definitely thin on amenities and would be more of a 3 star range in regards to condition of the room, quality of the comfort of the beds, and overall feel of the place. It’s got a rundown sort of feel and needs a serious updating"

Comfort Inn Encinitas Near Legoland ★★
"AVOID!!! The elevator is broken, the hotel is extremely close to the freeway, we saw 2 homeless people living at the hotel, the TV did not work and the phones also do not work in the room. I tried to call the front desk and ask why the water was turned off at 10am while we were showering and brushing teeth for Legoland. I walked down and said the phones are broken. I was met with the hotel manager Everet, with a big fake smile that said “I just picked up and you wouldn’t say anything so I hung up.” Seriously? You’re trying to lie to my face about your phones not working?!? I knew at this point I was up against a monster of a hotel manager. I said the water was shut off and no one in my room could brush their teeth or flush the toilet. He said “What am I supposed to do about it?” I said “You’re a hotel manager and you provide customer service.” His response was, “I do not work in customer service.” Again, I couldn’t believe the conversation I was having. I asked him for some water, and he said he could not give me any. I pointed to the 500 bottles of water in the snack area and asked for 1 so we could at least brush our teeth and give our kids some water. His response was “No”. This is the same hotel manager I witnessed talking very rude to a female front desk clerk the day before. I then spoke with a few other hotel workers about this man and they all agreed that he has a lot of problems. They said everyone quits working there after a few days…wonder why. They’ve been trying to renovate this hotel since 2017 apparently."

The Encinitan Hotel & Suites ★★★
"Checked in with Jeff very easy yet not very personable. Amenities extra $15/day even if you’re not using. Gym pool spa internet parking buffet breakfast. No disability parking in front door entrance only back (which was to far away from room) no help offered with luggage (only self service heavy push carts) Did not ask if I wanted help or if I was going to utilize these amenities. Room smelled of heavy use chemicals to clean room. (Could taste it). Ocean view claim with balcony was actually only seen if you walked and peered to the left. Bed not the most comfortable. Exit room door would slam at night very loud. Walk in tile shower floor slippery while showering and shower head had very low pressure."

Alila Marea Beach Resort Encinitas ★★★★★
"Overall, this is a very good resort hotel. I can't find any major problems. The service and cleanliness are very good. We checked in one hour earlier and had a free late check-out until 12:30. The scenery is also very beautiful. There are lounge chairs on the balcony. There is a public swimming pool and rest area outside, but the glass is mirrored during the day, so you can't see inside from the outside. There are not many people outside at night, so there is basically no privacy problem. The surrounding business and public transportation are not well developed, so it is recommended to drive. Currently, parking is $60 a day, and valet parking is only available. The service is quite fast. The room is very new and modern. The lack of latex pillows or sponge pillows, the air conditioner cannot be turned off at a time, and the sink is not easy to adjust the water temperature are minor shortcomings. The shower water pressure is extremely high. It is one of the hotels with the highest water pressure I have ever stayed in in the world. It is very comfortable. The breakfast included in the room price is a choice of main course, a choice of side dishes, and a choice of drinks. There are many choices, and the kimchi fried rice is particularly delicious. I also had dinner, which was OK, although the price-performance ratio is definitely at the hotel level."

Inn at Moonlight Beach ★★★★
"My husband and I came to the Inn to celebrate our wedding anniversary not really knowing what to expect. We were blown away by every little detail. The gardens, the honey, the staff, the bath, the breakfast baskets, the rooms, the spa…. Every aspect had such care and intention behind it. We walked away from our stay with great peace and appreciation. Thank you!"
