Hampton Inn by Hilton Cardiff San Diego
9.1 (108 reviews)

Hampton Inn by Hilton Cardiff San Diego ★★

📍 1661 Villa Cardiff Dr, Cardiff-by-the-Sea

"I can only say that the facilities and environment are definitely not worth the price. At night, if you have poor eyesight, you can hardly see what's inside the house. There are only two small bedside lamps and a small table lamp in the whole room. It looks like a guesthouse from the 60s or 70s. It's hard to describe!"

📍 142 Chesterfield Dr, Cardiff-by-the-Sea

📍 607 Leucadia Blvd, Encinitas

Days Inn by Wyndham Encinitas Moonlight Beach
7.2 (108 reviews)

Days Inn by Wyndham Encinitas Moonlight Beach ★★

📍 133 Encinitas Blvd, Encinitas

"The breakfast is a pack per person, which contains two snacks and a box of juice, which is better than nothing. The facilities are relatively old, but very clean, quiet, and cost-effective."

The Encinitan Hotel & Suites
8.3 (105 reviews)

The Encinitan Hotel & Suites ★★★

📍 85 Encinitas Blvd, Encinitas

"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."

Brisa Pacific Hotel Encinitas
8.4 (100 reviews)

Brisa Pacific Hotel Encinitas ★★

📍 410 N Coast Hwy 101, Encinitas

"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"

The Encinitan Hotel & Suites ★★★
"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."

Alila Marea Beach Resort Encinitas ★★★★★
"The location is half an hour's drive from SD. If you are a nearby resident, it would be more suitable for a vacation. The hotel facilities are relatively new, but there are few surrounding supporting facilities. It is suitable for lounging in the hotel. The beach and other entertainment facilities are also average. This is the only hotel in the United States that can It's alila if you're bringing children. It's not recommended to bring children. There's not much to do."

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!"
