Shops nearby were helpful. Super close to a big Macy’s that had food options and in walking distance of a Trader Joe’s. The pool was under maintenance while we stayed which we were not informed about before hand. That was disappointing.

It is a quieter neighbourhood, close to the beach and airport. It has great shopping and dining facilities. The people were very friendly and I felt safe to walk around. I would definitely stay in Pacifica next time.
