Top Dog Beach Hotel Reviews

Heritage Inn San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"Na"

Paradise Point Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"This hotel is very central and a good base. The room was clean and a good size. Moving around the property is a good way to make your step mark. Dining options are limited to 2 restaurants on premises and a market. Will recommend to bring your own snacks and water if you have a large group. Has a marina in place and you have multiple rental options. The views of the cove are great"

Catamaran Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We loved it! We had a family suite that was much much bigger than we expected It’s definitely a more “vintage” Hawai’i feel as in the room had a very dated look, but in clean way. We loved the pool area with the weekend bar, free arcade, and the music choices were 👌. Location was 100/100! Restaurants were all very good!"

Bahia Resort Hotel

8/10 Good

"The staff were always friendly. I would suggest getting an upstairs room as there was concern of little critters on the bottom floor. But it was cleaned well. The location was amazing."

Wyndham Garden San Diego Near SeaWorld

8/10 Good

"Not the prettiest stay; it does give motel energy. But it was clean and good for a quick weekend trip. Parking wasn't outrageous and came out of the deposit. Staff was very pleasant, and there were no hang-ups. Would recommend for a quick, no-frills trip to SD,"
