Cons:

The bed was extremely uncomfortable and I was double charged for my stay. Almost a week and no resolution. Very disappointing for a "resort"

Pros:

Loved the views and the privacy of the beach. The resort offers 3 restaurants and several activities.

Cons:

The beds were super firm, al.ist as if they stole them from the Flintstones.
We had a double queen room with a sea view and for the price I thought the room was larger.

Great restaurant!
Pros:

(This review is only for the restaurant as we did not stay there, dined only).
Very nice decor and ambiance, excellent piano player/singer, great food, outstanding service from Jessica, excellent view of the bay.
Walked around the grounds after eating and we liked it so much we were looking at our calendars trying to figure put when we could come and stay for a few days!

Pros:

Stayed last week for our zoo family trip.

The good: The location was great and the room was very spacious. We loved that we were able to set up a crib and roll away bed and still have plenty of room.

The bad: booked a garden view room through Costco travel and was given a room with a view of the neighboring park. The music at night was very loud and we could feel the vibration from the music. The room smelled upon arrival, the blow dryer was broken, we learned the fridge wasn’t working when we went to grab our baby’s milk and it was warm and unable to use. The outdoor patio furniture had bird poop all over it.

Not sure if we will stay again but if we do I would prefer another building. We were put in the Coronado building which was the furthest one back.

My Favorite Place to Stay
Pros:

Located on lovely Mission Bay, the hotel is near Sea World, the zoo, Old Town, beaches and all water sports on Mission Bay. The hotel has boat rentals and many water sports rentals to enjoy on the bay. There’s a terrific playground. Walkers, rubbers, casual bicyclers. Will enjoy miles of their favorite activities around the bay. Picnic areas galore. The hotel has a great pool, spa, restaurants, and lovely, relaxing grounds. Both couples and families will enjoy.

Needs Improvement
Pros:

We had some issues during this stay. Ice machines were not working. Tree trimming was happening during our stay and maintenance to the restaurant. Neither of these items warranted a notification and we had to discover this on our own. We brought issues to the staff but they were never handled. Not the best stay this time around.
