Great location! We felt very safe while still being close to food and activities. It was a beautiful space with lots of light! Very clean. It was also very quiet except for the airplanes flying over which was VERY loud. The beds were too hard for all of us but otherwise everything was comfortable. We would 100% stay here again.

    The location was excellentt, rght on the beach and near two great restaurants! The rooms were newly renovated with new funrnshing that had a beach, boutique hotel vibe. The bathroom was spacious and well appointed. We loved sitting on the common deck that faced the ocean, drinking a glass of complimentary rose'. We watched the activities of the lifegards in training and the busy, lively pace of Del Mar Beach The village of Del Mar is just a few blocks away.
