La Jolla Shores Hotel

Great staff and experience. We are working on when we can go back. Hotel had some construction going on but other than not being able to use the pool, it did not effect us.

Highly recommend La Jolla Shores Hotel / Beach & Tennis. Prior to our visit, Justin at the reservation office, was very imformative with helping us make our room selection and answering all of our questions. We decided to stay in a condo @ Beach and Tennis for our family size/needs. Everyone there was super friendly and helpful with restaurant suggestions, tips, grocery delivery, etc and went out of their way to make sure our stay was extra special. The kids enjoyed playing pickleball, swimming in the heated pool, exploring the grounds and watching the sunsets on the beach. We were within close walking proximity to many great restaurants, a convenience store, ice cream and a short drive to town and also to Torrey Pines for incredible hiking/views. The Marine Room restaurant was our favorite meal by far. Our server, John, was so friendly and knowledgeable. The food was unique, fresh and delicious. On our second to last night, we misplaced a very sentimental item that belongs to my son. Everyone went above and beyond to help us track it down, especially Victor, the housekeeping manager and the housekeeper who found it. We can't thank them enough! Overall, an amazing vacation for our family to unwind, reconnect and spend quality time together. California definitely holds a special place in our hearts and we look forward to our next visit. Thank you for a wonderful stay and unforgettable memories made!

Perfect location for beach front rooms with an amazing view. This is the place to stay if you want to be on the beach and its for families or a romantic getaway.

Having the pool & hot-tub closed during renovations was a MAJOR disappointment with no notice. This was a romantic getaway weekend & we purposefully looked for a hotel with these amenities. The Valencia hotel was available for use, but not a convenient walking distance, there was no hot tub there, the pool was full of screaming small children, AND the 3 times we attempted to use the hotel shuttle service, the wait was 45min-3hrs until available. Overall NO amenities were useful & being charged a resort fee is a joke!

I made this reservation in September 2025 3-nights 4-days to celebrate my husbands birthday. I specifically asked for Beachfront deluxe room with two queen beds. Upon arrival I was told " we upgraded you" - I didn't ask for an upgrade and did not want a king bed. When I inquired I was asked "didn't the manager call you to see if it was okay" and I said no one called me. So when I asked again for the corner room beachfront deluxe room it became apparent this room was NOT available. Also, I was NOT told that there was constructions going on (disruptive) and the pool was closed! Paying over $2200 I expected more. Although the room was clean, the outside patio was dirty and it was NOT a corner room. We ordered two nights take out, and the food was excellent. The room service carts started ~ 6:30 am and were very noisy traveling on the Mexican travertine tile - so much for trying to "sleep in". We won't be back.

My son and I had a great experience with staying here. It is really a family friendly place and they have outdoor fire pits that you can get a scores kit and let the kids roast marshmallows in the evening after playing in the pool or the near by playground.

We have stayed here several times, the staff is amazing. I wish the rooms were more updated and that the distinct smell could be cleaned from it. It just still seems “old”. I really love this place and would stay if it could be updated even more with the bathroom fixtures, walls, and flooring. When I asked if the construction was to update the rooms- they told me it was to update the balconies. I feel like the insides should be updated first. But overall, staying directly on the beach is awesome and the price is great for it!

The room was very quiet, a great bed, wonderful staff and beach view if you stand up. It's great that they except dogs. Since they're remodeling you should know there are less amenities. Until it's remodeled "resort" is a stretch. Luxury rooms is a complete miss for the money. The beach helps make up for that but not enough.

Safe and fun family experience! Great view of the ocean and spacious and clean rooms. I would definitely recommend this place.

Great place to stay. Really nice location and parking was easy. The downside was the drunk gal at the hotel bar screaming endless profanities at the hotel bar.
