We were there to attend a family wedding, coming in from out of the country. Hotel prices in the region are pretty nuts, so we went with a chain, figuring it would be adequate for our purposes. It was -- barely. The room would have been basic and fine, were it not for some notable issues I will list below. The location was good, as it sits right off I-5. Internet was good. Staff were very nice and accommodating. The beds were comfortable. Breakfast was actually pretty good. But, if one were willing to spend just a little more, you could get a much better deal elsewhere.

Beautiful location & ocean views. The pool area and fire pits were amazing. Loved that there was a beach concierge. Absolute 5-star luxury. It’s adults-only, 21 and over which was perfect for our aunt-and-niece staycation. Even though the hotel was sold out, it did not feel crowded. Due to the smaller boutique size, it was quiet and had high staff to guest ratio, and every amenity was perfect.

    I love everything about Encinitas.

    I love everything about Encinitas. It is one of the spots where you can go and feel like a local even if your not. I have stayed at the 12 Senses Retreat which was super cool with their nature themed rooms and the amazing hostess. And it is just up the road from Swammi's Beach and the Self Relization Center, which is gorgeous. I have stayed at Brisas Pacific Hotel which was super affordable and a few minutes walk to the beach. You can pretty much walk everywhere in Encinitas. I plan to move there myself soon :)

    Charming surf town.

    Charming surf town. We enjoyed walking the beach, watching the local surfers and the sunset from the bluffs. Plenty of shopping and restaurants all within walking distance. Bigger box type stores for groceries, etc within about a 10 minute drive. Traffic was not bad. We visited San Diego Botanical Garden and highly recommend.

    I grew up in north county and Encinitas was a regular stomping ground. Great restaurants and shopping and it offers a train stop that will get you to/from union station in San Diego where you can catch an Uber or bus to the airport while enjoying breathtaking views!

    Unfortunately, we had a very busy wedding weekend and didn't have much time for learning more about the city of Encinitas. We enjoyed the places we visited (Encinitas Cafe for breakfast and the Solterra Winery for the rehearsal dinner). Food and ambiance was great. Would love to go back and enjoy more of the city.

    We loved Moonlight Beach and shopping in downtown Encinitas.

    We loved Moonlight Beach and shopping in downtown Encinitas. The lunch places seem to get very crowded, so it's good to go early. Encinitas also has a big beautiful Target, which was very exciting for my daughter who lives in NYC (the Targets there aren't very nice). Driving around was really easy. Encinitas is a fun place to be a tourist, and it doesn't seem too touristy. I wish we had time to try many of the hiking spots nearby, but now we have a reason to come back.
