Lakehouse Resort

8/10 Good

"Highly recommend Lakehouse resort. I would’ve rated it excellent except for the experience we received when we checked in. The front staff was very snooty and not friendly at all. Just couple of things in the room that needed improvement: the lighting. One of the lamps did NOT work. The room looks very dark. It you want a vacation, this place is the place. The whole place gets very quiet after 10-a very peaceful environment. Also family friendly place. They have fire pits (where you do smores at night)and movie nights by the pool. MOST IMPORTANTLY-this resort is very DOG FRIENDLY. LOVE ! LOVE! LOVE!!! Housekeeping excellent also!"

Hyatt Vacation Club at The Welk, San Diego Area

4/10 Poor

"We chose this hotel mainly because of the water slide, but unfortunately it has been out of service since yesterday afternoon with no prior notice. The room also had an overwhelmingly strong disinfectant smell that made the stay very uncomfortable. We were told we were being moved to an “upper level,” but the room actually felt more like a semi-basement, and there was almost no cell phone signal. On top of that, the hotel Wi-Fi was completely down from last night through this morning. For a family-oriented hotel, a 10 AM checkout time is also surprisingly inconvenient. Overall, the experience did not match the expectations or the price paid."

DoubleTree by Hilton San Diego - Del Mar

10/10 Excellent

"Nice property. Pool was heated which was a plus since it was kinda cloudy. There was some construction going on in the parking lot and it was a little tough to find a spot in the evening. Other than that, it was a great stay and would definitely come back"
