It is a home away from home. With breakfast cycling in an apartment we go there often and that is where we stay every time. The staff even recognizes. And that makes this feel good.

Perfect location for families. The bayside is great if you're not into waves crashing. Plus, right on the boarder of Mission/Pacific beaches (>5 min walk). Loved the little free arcade, the later pool hours, and the overall island feel.

Where to stay in La Jolla
Learn about the top neighbourhoods of La Jolla
Those on a mission for sand, surf and fun in the sun are lured by the splashy appeal of San Diego's Mission Bay, a lovely lagoon inlet a few miles north of city center San Diego. It's where guests flip for Shamu shows at SeaWorld, while others head for Mission Bay Aquatic Center - the world's largest instructional waterfront facility - to learn how to surf before hitting the cool-dude beach scene.
Those dropping anchor here get prime waterfront access a few miles outside of San Diego International Airport. A destination for the "super yacht set," Shelter Island is all things nautical, boasting marinas, waterfront hotels, seafood restaurants and bayside parks. In Point Loma, guests can tiptoe through tide pools, board a whale-watching tour and climb the lighthouse at nearby Cabrillo National Monument for spectacular 360-degree views.
One of America's most affluent communities, a 25-minute drive north of city center San Diego, La Jolla is ideal for guests looking for an upscale yet laidback So-Cal stay. Those bound for downtown head straight for La Jolla Village for prime people-watching and an impressive bistro/boutique/gallery scene. Great outdoors fans can hit Torrey Pines Golf Course or hike Torrey Pines State Park, both set at the northern end of this area. Home to University of California, San Diego and Scripps Institution of Oceanography, La Jolla is a meeting ground of beauty and brains.

Top Tips
- Book hotels 45-60 days ahead for 15-25% lower rates compared to booking within 30 days, based on 2023 data. For peak times such as summer or major La Jolla events, plan to book even earlier.
- Add 12.5-14.75% in taxes and fees to quoted rates, as La Jolla's total hotel tax includes state, county, and city surcharges. Check your exact tax rate before payment, since it can vary by property.
- Stay west of I-5 for walkability, as properties average $310-$420 USD per night and offer a Walk Score of 70+. This area is closest to attractions like La Jolla Cove and local dining.
- Choose hotels with 24-hour Wi-Fi guarantees if remote working, since median upload speeds in La Jolla hotels are 18 Mbps, below the citywide average. Confirm speed and reliability with your hotel if upload speed is important.
- Verify step-free access beyond ADA labels by explicitly requesting a 'roll-in shower, zero-threshold entrance', since 38% of beachfront properties audited failed full step-free transfer standards. Contact the property directly before booking to confirm accessibility features.
- Decline Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC) at check-in, as it can add a 4-7% markup over the mid-market exchange rate. Ask to be charged in USD to avoid extra conversion fees.
- Avoid parking fees by booking properties with off-street permits near UC San Diego, or expect public parking costs of $2-$4 USD per hour. Some areas offer walkability or shuttle options to the main attractions.
- Request rooms facing away from Prospect Street to avoid noise, since sound levels can exceed 60 dB in street-facing units on weekend evenings. Note this preference during booking or check-in for better results.
- Skip single-use toiletries; refillable dispensers are required by CA law in 78% of hotels with 5+ rooms, reducing plastic waste by approximately 3.2 kg per stay. Bring personal toiletries if you have sensitivities or specific preferences, since in-room options may be limited.
- Use ATMs inside Chase or Bank of America branches to avoid $5+ USD surcharges often found at independent kiosks in tourist zones. Check if your home bank has ATM partnerships for more savings.
- Confirm water refill availability, since drought restrictions may disable pool or landscape systems, and 40% of hotels lack on-site refill stations. Bring a reusable water bottle and ask hotel staff about refill options upon arrival.
- Tip housekeeping $2-$5 USD per night, left daily in an envelope, as gratuity is not typically included in resort fees. If no envelope is supplied in the room, request one at the front desk.
