Estancia La Jolla Hotel Spa

Location and grounds

Stairs and distance to elevator. Plus resort WiFi was extremely poor.

Great boutique hotel in La Jolla. Kind staff, good dining, peaceful grounds, elevated vibe.

The walls are paper thin and we could hear the neighbors TV blaring at 5am. Be prepared for lots of excessive additional charges to be tacked on in addition to the cost of your room, it?s outrageous.

Beautiful, fancy spa hotel. Loved laying around the pool being served drinks and food. Dog friendly!

The food was underwhelming. For a place this expensive the food should be fantastic, especially considering what they charge for it.

NOT kid friendly, NOT family friendly, absolutely nothing to do, tony pool for entire hotel and its adult environment, alcohol centric

The hotel was beautiful. The location stunning. Rooms were comfortable.

We called the hotel direct after booking to confirm 2 beds and let them know we would be arriving late. They confirmed we were booked for 2 beds. When we arrived we had ione king. We called the front desk and they said they said no more rooms.

Gorgeous landscaping and beautiful grounds.

Room carpet old. A/C broken. $30/night resort fee was not expected!

The grounds were beautiful. Valet were friendly and helpful. And their order-in room service food is delicious. The manager was kind to offer us free amenities because of mistakes in our check-in on our honeymoon.

Staff could be more warmly service oriented and friendly. It was our honeymoon and we didn't have a the best overall feeling of appreciation and got a used bedroom - then got moved to a room with double beds.

Everyone knew what was going on in the hotel to the reservationist, telephone operators, security and cleaning ladies. They gave out free waters and other items that hotels usually charge. I loved it.

beautiful grounds. complimentary wine tasting!

the service at the pool was terrible.

The Concierge, Valet, and Shuttle staff were super helpful in organizing trips, POI and tips for visiting the La Jolla area, especially with the crazy July 4th Crowds!

It a couple of reminders to the front desk to correct our white wine bottle request. But the Concierge made up for it. The only other issue is gate access to the onsite gym was not working with any guest or staff room keys.

Beautiful location and hotel. Friendly staff. Good service.

The architecture and courtyards were beautiful. The room was clean and comfortable.

Front desk nice, but not helpful. The valet staff were the most helpful. They offered the shuttle to town for our convince, but didn't tell us we needed to make reservations more than an hour in advance.

The grounds are a little like a botanical garden. Very nice.

They charge $25/night to park along with the $25/night resort fee, and you can't really walk anywhere from there. So, your real price is higher than you expect.

The salt water pool is fantastic. The whole pool area is a delight.

The level of service was very subpar. Our room had exposed carpet tack strips, to which their response took many hours while we waited and missed out on about 20% of our vacation weekend. Also there was heavy fighting by a couple in a room above.

The Grounds beautiful flowers, plants, restaurants, staff.

Our room was very small and the hall in our area smelled very musty. Bathroom was very basic.

architecture and landscaping

The room had a small concrete pad outside of the patio door, with one chair, which was just a few feet from the parking lot wall. Should do something to make that area a little more appealing

The surroundings, the beauty of the rooms, the history (been staying there for years), the peace.

Things have changed, it appeared to me. The employees were not helpful and so busy trying to adhere to policy they forget they are dealing with a paying customer. Examples at the front desk, the spa, and the pool.

They did not charge a resort fee.

nothing special about the location. Pool is small

High Ceilings, facilities were clean. Professional staff.

Additional $25 to self park.
