Hyatt Vacation Club at The Welk, San Diego Area
The grill at the Mountain Spring pool closed early, which was a disappointment because we had called regarding hours, etc, as we were planning for a group.

DoubleTree by Hilton San Diego - Del Mar
Loved the Staff, hotel is in good condition, and is located in a great area of town! Parking is a nightmare & you have to pay handsomely for the privilege, of experiencing, said nightmare. Will avoid this otherwise great hotel, going forward, due to parking situation.

It is by far my favorite place to stay. Fantastic location,,beautiful view, wonderful staff and a great property. I’ve been staying here for well over 10 years when I’m in town and the only issue I’ve ever had is I never want to leave.
