Overall this was one great experience! From the beginning we had Benjamin assist with an early check-in so we could enjoy the amenities early ($35 fee). Got in around 12:30 pm and was met by Hannah at check-in. She was so cheerful and even walked to the pool to provide vouchers for drinks for us! Caelyn and Jasminh also provided great customer service when requested. We had happy hour (2-5) at the bar and had great appetizers and drinks (get the humus and brusel sprouts). $5! We had a birthday dinner at the restaurant, Avant. What a great place for views, food, and service. Sergio was our server and took care of us. The food was 5 star. Had the local bread, sashimi bluefin, and branzino. The quality and taste was excellent. The price was very reasonable and a great value. We had breakfast there and Sarah was our waitress. Again great service and food. Had the granola/fruit yogurt and avocado toast. Food quality again great. Also golfed at the resort and got a good rate for staying there. 3pm rate only $70 and worth it! Again, don't think twice about coming here for a day or more.......well worth it! read more

We recently booked a weekend stay at Rancho Bernardo Inn hoping for a luxury resort experience, but unfortunately, it was marked by severe understaffing and poor service recovery. Service & Dining: Breakfast at Veranda started off on a bad foot with an unattended host stand, an unwelcoming greeting, and a 20-30 minute wait, forcing us to pivot to the coffee shop. While the coffee shop team was sweet, they were visibly understaffed and running low on basic inventory. Food overall across the property was unimpressive for the price point. Housekeeping: The biggest issue was returning to our room late in the evening after being away for over 10 hours, only to find it hadn't been serviced at all. Management: When we texted about our disappointment, management gave us cold, dismissive, copy-pasted responses rather than taking accountability. To top it off, shortly after giving us canned answers, they sent an automated text begging for a 5-star TripAdvisor review! Verdict: The property itself is lovely, but the level of service, staffing shortages, and indifferent management fall far short of high-end standards. Wouldn't recommend for travelers expecting a reliable, high-touch resort stay. read more

I wanted to give this place 5 stars, but the restaurant here is WAYYY over priced. DO NOT....I repeat DO NOT GET the 3 course meals. 3 small pieces of steak (which wasn't great). Over $1,700 (Gratuity was included) for 8 people is INSANE! Yes there was a few drinks between some of us, not all of us had any cocktails. We should have just ate the bar there. Would have saved hundreds of $$$!! The bar food was much better by the way. Other than that golf course was fun and in great shape. All the other services was GREAT. Rooms were OK. We would come back, but we would definitely stay away from the restaurant. read more

We had a great time at the spa for a friend's birthday! Beautiful, clean grounds, wonderful service, poolside lounging at its finest on a quiet weekday now that people's kids are back in school! Yay! Food was good and reasonably priced for the location, the facilities were very nice and it was a beautiful day overall. read more

Visited Rancho for my Birthday! Service from everyone from the front, to the bell hops, to the towel lady was excellent! I really liked their attention to cleanliness in the room and bathrooms.. The grounds were beautiful and I was happy to see they have a family pool for the folks with kids and an adult pool for those who didn't- both salt water. I came to relax and chill, so Rancho was perfect for that! If possible, get the suite with the tub. Also make sure to wear bug repellent cuz the mosquito situation is no joke! I got ate TF up!! I did have an issue with my room, it wasn't the room that was advertised. Online it was a double bed with a garden view, I got a single with a view of the parking lot.. Patio furniture was dusty Af.. I don't know if it's them or Amex I should blame for that.. Wasn't fixable til the next day- I was only there for 2 days.. Also room wasn't t ready for almost 2 hours after check in.. Food from Veranda left a whole lot to be desired! Ordered steak and eggs and it was awful, even the bread wasn't good! Ordered waffles, they were cold and the bacon was even bad- like it had been sitting grease and reheated.. pro tip, get the pancakes with sausage and don't get room service.. Bar food was Pretty decent tho, the happy hour was great! read more

Our stay was perfect! We were able to check in three hours earlier and get a free room upgrade with the golf course view! The bell cart worker was also super kind and brought up our stuff quickly. The pool and room were clean however there are a BUNCH of mosquitos so I would just be aware of that whenever you walk around the resort. read more

Rancho Bernardo Inn - AVANT Restaurant at Rancho Bernardo INN - Resorts Near Me - San Diego, California

I remember way back when when the village of Rancho Bernardo did not exist at all, and was simply open and barren land off the 15 Freeway. You now exit Rancho Bernardo Road and proceed eastward to about the second or third light. At that intersection, you make a left turn. Thereafter, you travel along a quiet and residential street of pretty houses all the way to the end of the street, which ends in a cul de sac at the gated entrance to the Rancho Bernardo Inn. I love the architecture of the Rancho Bernardo Inn. It is very 1970's interpretation of Spanish baronial hacienda, and it works and seems fresh and modern, depite being over 50 years old. The lobby extends into a long and covered loggia that takes one into th garden of the hotel. The place to eat at the hotel is Avant. read more

Very nice and clean resort. My fiancé and I drove in from Irvine to stay here for a few nights. I used AMEX so that upgraded our room to a suite facing the golf course. The resort is very well kept and clean, the grounds are older but you can tell they do a good job with upkeep. My fiancé went to the spa and got a facial, she said it was a great experience. The breakfast was really good, everything is fresh from their Chefs Garden. The only complaint I have would be the self parking which they charge 40 dollars a night for and on the weekends it took 25 minutes to find a spot after 8pm because of the restaurant, golf and weddings. I called the front desk to inquire and the manager Benjamin was quick to comp the parking fee for the whole stay. Amazing customer service. Staff was nice and friendly. Would come back read more

We just got back from our second stay at Rancho Bernardo Inn, and it was just as amazing as the first--if not better. We came back with our now 9 year old along with 4 and 5-year-olds, and the experience felt so thoughtful from the start. The bellman was genuinely kind and welcoming (not in a forced way), which set the tone right away. The hotel also paid attention to a note I left ahead of time--our room was near the pool, and the kids were surprised with tents, s'mores kits, plus a welcome fruit board and San Pellegrino. The room was well maintained and clean (and I'm picky about cleanliness), and the overall vibe of the property is charming with a Spanish-style feel--warm and inviting without feeling outdated. Service was great across the board. Even when we had a small issue, it was handled quickly and professionally. The family pool was perfect for the kids, and we loved that there were quieter pool options for adults too. Housekeeping was also very attentive and consistent. Overall, such a relaxing, family-friendly stay. We'll definitely be back again. read more

I did a day pass through Resort Pass. It was a good experience. I was at the adult pool. Thank goodness there is an adult pool. I ordered the BLTA which was delicious. The fries were salted perfectly. The bread was buttery, the ranch was creamy. I'd order this again. I also got a lemonade which was standard. For the pool, you to have to call a number to get service. It takes about 20-30 mins for the delivery. So expect a drink to take a while to come to you. It's a nice option though could be nicer if a server walked by occasionally to check in. There's a few umbrellas but not that many. Good selection of menu items. Parking was ok. They have a lot. It was full so I ended up parking in the neighborhood which was a 5 min walk. I didn't necessarily mind this since I'm used to a parking in central San Diego which is always terrible lol. read more

Yes, I know... I'm a little late with this, but it gives everyone a head start for next year. If you've been, you know but if you haven't been, then you need to see this for yourself. The RBI is keeping Christmas spirit alive and well. It's always decked with Holiday Cheer, something fun for the adults and more for the Littles. Specialty bar and food items available at the restaurants. Always a treat. One of the most festive spots in Southern California during the holidays. Simply amazing and oh by the way, it's the RBI. So the service is always spectacular. You must see it for yourself. Thank you RBI for staying consistent. read more

Rancho Bernardo Inn is always a gem hidden within a residential neighborhood of Rancho Bernardo. I have stayed there several times before (rooms are clean, and beds are comfortable) and have eaten at Verandah Grill and Avant countless times over the years (both very good). It also has a nice spa which I have also visited many times (it is tucked away which requires a bit of walking down and up a slope; the spa is a bit dated but clean). Over the Christmas holidays, the hotel has an amazing life-size gingerbread house or village. That is a must see! The staff is always professional and accommodating, and the service is good. Parking can be challenging at times, which may require you to park on residential street or overflow parking at nearby clubhouse at times. There is valet available as well. read more

Update: This morning, my husband called to try to make a tennis reservation, and fortunately they were able to fit him in at noon, even though it is Martin Luther King Jr. weekend. The receptionist did note that they typically prefer more than 24 hours' notice, which is important to keep in mind, especially if you're only staying one or two nights or checking in later in the day. Regarding the spa, after expressing how much we wanted a day pass, we were told the spa would call us in the morning as soon as they opened if any passes became available. Unfortunately, we never received that call, so we followed up ourselves. At that point, we were told they couldn't take any payments because their system was down. I suggested charging it to the room, and after some back-and-forth, they said they could--but only at the holiday rate of $140 per person when the hotel receptionist had previously told us the rate would be $69 per person and never mentioned holiday pricing. After the hotel intervened and acknowledged the pricing discrepancy, they honored the $69 rate. In the end, we were able to access both the tennis courts and the spa, but only after a significant amount of back-and-forth and clarification. It was far from straightforward and did not match how seamlessly these amenities are marketed. If you are booking this property specifically for the spa or tennis, be prepared to reserve everything well in advance and know that these amenities are not directly managed by the hotel, which can lead to delays and confusion. Access is not guaranteed simply by staying here. I do want to specifically call out Chloe, who was instrumental in helping us secure both the tennis and spa reservations. Without her help, we likely would not have been accommodated at all. While we ultimately enjoyed the amenities, the process was frustrating and stressful, especially during a holiday weekend. Clearer communication and better coordination would go a long way in setting accurate expectations for guests. Despite the miscommunication and logistical confusion, the grounds and spa were beautiful and the food was delicious, which made for a relaxing getaway once we were accommodated. read more

Had a lunch meeting here and honestly... I may have accidentally turned it into a mini vacation. Beautiful sunny day, sitting outside under an umbrella table sipping iced tea like I had zero emails waiting for me. My co-worker and I ordered two different flatbreads and split a salad because apparently we are now "ladies who lunch." Everything was delicious! The golf atmosphere was actually really fun too. I don't even play golf, but after watching everyone cruise around looking relaxed and sporty, I briefly considered becoming the kind of person who says things like, "I'll catch you after my tee time." Great food, great vibes, and perfect patio weather! I will def be back! read more

Pricey but if you are going to make use of the facilities, appreciate the grounds and the lay out of this hotel then it is worth your money. We had a very spacious double queen bed looking out onto the golf course. It was quiet enough for us to sleep with the window open and benefit from the fresh air brought in by the light rain. Our room was super clean with a large bathroom. Front desk was responsive and the different type of food services around the resort hotel make it easy to navigate for families. There is a family pool and a secluded adult pool. There were two weddings and two conventions during our three days stay and it member felt overcrowded or that we were spoiling someone else's event. All staff were super busy yet pleasant and helpful. read more

The front desk experience with Hannah was extremely disappointing. From the beginning, she came across as rude, dismissive, and not willing to help. We asked her for assistance with a few things during our stay, but the requests were either not handled or not followed through on. We ended up having to call again to ask for the same things, which made the whole process frustrating and unnecessary. The front desk is usually the first impression of a property, and unfortunately Hannah's attitude and lack of follow-through made the start of our experience feel unprofessional and poorly managed. Her customer service was far below what I would expect, and it negatively affected our stay. read more

The spa was so good, our old arses walked out feeling young again! :::laughs::: Worth every penny- we will definitely be back! read more

It was our first time staying here and I would come again. It was a very serene vibe where you are kind of forced to sit and do nothing. Sometimes you need that in life. The grounds of the property are beautiful and naturey. When we booked our room, we booked over the phone and got a better deal than what we saw online. Our parking was waved and we got $50 credit to spend at the property. Pros: - Beautiful grounds to walk around - Serene, peaceful, quiet environment - Front desk staff helpful and friendly - Comfortable beds and you can pair the tv with your phone and stream from Netflix - cute patio - 2 restaurants to choose from and a great little cafe - you can order to the pool food and drinks - having a separate adult pool Cons: - I wish there was music by the adult pool its very quiet and could use some speakers - rooms are a bit dated. i see dust in places. - patio has a lot of bugs - on their website they make it seem like you can use the spa pool (it's the nicest pool at the property). Not everyone can use it and you can only use it if you get a service done at their spa. This is annoying because it's like the first picture on their website so it seems like you can use it, but you can't. read more

We checked into the Rancho Bernardo Inn in California on January 30 for a three-night stay. The hotel was quite full with several events taking place, yet everything felt well managed and unhurried. From the moment we arrived, the valet staff took excellent care of us, and the front desk check-in process was seamless and welcoming. A bellman escorted us to our room with our luggage, gave us a brief introduction to the space, and made sure we were comfortable before leaving -- a thoughtful touch that set the tone for our stay. That evening, we used our $100 dining credit for dinner, which was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere was stunning, with a guitarist softly strumming near the fireplace, creating a warm and elegant ambiance. It's truly one of the most beautiful places to dine, and it's also where breakfast is served in the morning -- something we really enjoyed. Overall, the service, setting, and experience exceeded our expectations. I would absolutely stay at Rancho Bernardo Inn again. read more

I'm pretty disappointed that nobody from RB Inn has even bothered to reply. Do they really not even care? I've been to dive bars that know better than to serve wine in a juice glass. I will not be going back for drinks or dinner if they don't even respect their clientele enough to reply. Serving wine in a juice glass is GAUCHE! They might as well serve it in Dixie cups or Red Cups. Way to stay classy, RB Inn. read more

The Rancho Bernardo Inn is a wonderful and unique and beautiful establishment that will give you many opportunities to create special memories. The quiet atmosphere and serene area allows one's perspective to be directed to make discoveries of peace and harmony in a place where the rest of the world continues in its own chaos. The many waterfalls and well maintained and manicured gardens helps you to forget the drudgery of life that you're trying to escape from. The employees are generous with their hospitality and service is always amazing and delightful. There are many activities that are offered from Spa Services to Live Entertainment to Special Themed Soirées that the RB Inn is known for. Always check online for scheduled activities. For that special occasion or just to get away from the world, you will always make great memories when you choose the Rancho Bernardo Inn!!! read more

A beautiful resort that I have been to but never stayed overnight. So far a bit disappointing. The room I booked had a balcony but no elevator so they gave us a room on the first floor as we couldn't do stairs due to a health issue. Ended up in the furthest building which had multiple stairs in the pathway to get here. What?? Then the AC didn't work and neither did the tv..after 2 hours an engineer arrived- he walked out and it started working - no one knows why..?? TV - no clue..hoping for a better experience for the rest of the stay as it is a beautiful resort and the staff is responding. read more

Treated to stay here by my friend. Only 3 stars First the property is beautiful and very relaxing. Check is was simple and front desk very inviting. Room overall was large and clean. Took a bit to get ac really going. Went to shower and grabbed the robe. One sleeve was fine the other was literally old and ratty with hole. New robe was provided. Went to grab a water from fridge noticed the fridge door would not completely close are small ice area was frozen over with top of fridge area being very hot. Notified front desk who didn't seem to think it was urgent. Check out wax easy. Bellman never showed up to help with baggage but my friend's husband had arrived so really not a big deal. Would I stay again???? Probably not since I don't golf or play tennis. Minor improvements need to be made. read more

If I could give negative stars etc. Do not stay here. Especially during the summer. You literally have to get the on site facilities team to override the motion detector that turns off your AC when you're not in the room. So, if you leave for dinner and expect to come back to a nice cool room to fall asleep in, it's not going to happen. Now it's almost 11pm and we're waiting for the room to cool down (it's at 80 stifling degrees) so I can get up for a business meeting in 6 hours. There are also no elevators, which is insane. So I hope you like dragging your baggage up 4 flights of stairs. How and why I couldn't tell you. There's also no signage to tell you what building you're in, so that's a fun guessing game. I cannot imagine why anyone would stay here. Worst experience at a hotel that I've had in recent memory. read more

Our daughter's wedding was in late February 2026. With a 5 month engagement, planning had to move quickly. JENNY RHYMES (Catering Sales & Services Manager) was wonderful to work with. She is friendly, knowledgeable, sweet, on time, and responds to emails and phone calls within 24 hours. Without Jenny the rehearsal and wedding would not have been so seamless. Everything about the wedding far exceeded our expectations. Ease of parking, signage, food, ambiance, guest rooms, and the overall feel was exactly what my daughter and her husband had dreamed of. RBI provides a unique setting, beautiful greenery and old world charm. The ceremony was on the North Lawn surrounded by rose bushes. The reception was like a fairytale on the Santiago Courtyard and the dancing was in the Santiago Ballroom. Big thank-you to the entire staff that helped in making our weekend perfect. read more

Rancho Bernardo Inn Let's start with the fact that I'm writing this within a few hours of checking in, and I'm really happy. Booked RB Inn at the last minute when I needed a place to stay after an emergency room visit at a local hospital. Wasn't planning to even stay in the area for this trip, but I was thrilled to be able to book a last minute stay at a great rate. I'd remembered being interested in Rancho Bernardo Inn when actually PLANNING a trip to this lovely area of California. I hadn't had any sleep the night before and was really hoping to be able to lie down and nap, well before the traditional check in time. But I wasn't that hopeful. However, they accommodated my early check in request and I was so psyched! In fact, the entire check-in experience was pleasant and helpful. That act ALONE won me over. But by no means did it end there. The room itself is GREAT. Honestly, I know this is a really nice resort but my expectations were still exceeded. Just the simple main level room, but so much to like. Two padded chairs and a table outside the room, on the little patio outside the room. Clean clean clean. Really comfortable bed, nice pillows, mattress perfect hardness for me (a LITTLE firm). Table and two chairs, REALLY nice sized refrigerator (you don't have to cram your wine into the traditional mini-fridge), yet another comfortable chair with a nice reading light, HUGE flat screen TV, plenty of drawer space, great bathroom (good water pressure in the shower, convenient wall-mounted body wash/shampoo and conditioner), plenty of space, plenty of USB outlets. NO complaints about the room. Valet guys were great too. I'm not even a golfer but I enjoyed looking at the course and the landscaping. You know, an unfortunate circumstance brought me to Rancho Bernardo Inn, but I like this place so much, I'm gong to plan a future visit here specifically. This place has great rooms, great service, and great location, and I'll always remember and be grateful for how they accommodated me and how it turned a stressful medical emergency to a pleasant hotel stay. read more

I frequently put together weekend trips for my girlfriends, and this past weekend, 50 of us descended on the Rancho Bernardo Inn. We worked with the hotel's staff to arrange for rooms, to reserve space for our exercise classes, to block space for the meals we would be eating collectively there, and to select menus for those meals. The check-in process was a breeze, and all of the spaces were as promised. Many of my friends took advantage of the spa, and were pleased with the services there, as well. We also collectively spent a good amount of time in hot tubs and around fire pits. The grounds are beautiful and the weather was perfect. Staff was friendly and service was terrific.

Stayed here for our wedding... our wedding bands and several thousand in cash went missing from our room while we were out. Hotel staff entered for turndown service and maintenance (latter without telling us). We returned to find everything gone. No forced entry. No resolution. We filed a report and even spoke directly with the general manager, who acknowledged their staff entered the room during that exact time , but took no accountability or compassion for the fact that we were the wedding couple and had a big group staying with us. No support. Just argued with us. (We had stayed here the year before and had items discarded, only to have housekeeping come and apologize after we complained... they had this on file so we are not just making things up). We decided to give the place another try... our mistake. We filed a police report in the end. Zero empathy. Zero hospitality for a luxury resort, that claims to offer everything. If you care about trust, guest safety, or basic decency... book elsewhere. Beautiful property, yes. But if something goes wrong, you're on your own. read more

Really bad service this trip I have stayed here 3 to 5 times. I am a local. We decided on a last-minute stay and called the hotel directly to book. Reservations promised me a room that was not available. They also made a bunch of notes with my requests, yet no one ever called or followed up or honored these requests. I had to follow up myself a second or third time. When I checked the next morning on one of my requests, I was told "no" by two different people at the front desk. After being given the runaround and contacting the front desk for a fourth time, they finally honored my request. This became a pattern. We noticed we had to ask for something two or three times before the same person finally said yes. I went to the spa pool and was never serviced. No one asked if I wanted a drink. I eventually left because I was not getting service. We dined at Avant and were unimpressed. The chef is doing too much. I sent back 2 cocktails and was embarrassed to send back a 3rd cocktail. My husband's drink was served with a giant fly in it. There were so many large flies where we sat (corner of the patio) we were fighting them off of our food. We were not impressed by the food and left to order room service. I called room service to order from the in-room dining menu, only to be told that what I wanted was not on the menu, despite it clearly being listed on the "Inn Room Dining Menu". I was then told I could only order from the Veranda menu for in-room dining. I asked if they could add pickles to my cheese burger and was told "no we do not have pickles in the kitchen." He said it was related to the different chefs and their different things they were trying to achieve with their respective menus and things get lost in sauce. Housekeeping came in to clean while we were out on our patio. She was extremely brief and left before taking the trash, and before we could even tip her. Upon checkout, I had to call the hotel twice to order a bellhop. The bellhop never showed up. We had to carry all of our bags all the way to reception ourselves in two trips. The resort is loaded with hidden and excessive charges. There are multiple taxes and fees for nearly everything. Each night's rate includes two to three different taxes plus a resort fee. Each meal has its own price plus two different taxes or surcharges and a tip. We checked in with plenty of cash for tips and left with all of it because no one gave us any service worth tipping. read more

WHY WE WENT HERE: - wedding THE LOOK (FROM THE OUTSIDE): - extensive grounds; parking seemed like when you attempt to go to the mall during Christmas time; each day we were here (wedding rehearsal and wedding itself) there was either a golf competition and/or another wedding taking place as well - golf course onsite - bride's and groom's rooms were located off the parking lot to the Greens building - the "getting ready" room was in the Gardens building in Andalucia I past the lobby - the wedding ceremony took place in the North Lawn - the cocktail hour took place in between the North Lawn and the Catalina Ballroom - the reception took place in the Catalina Ballroom THE LOOK (FROM THE INSIDE): - bride's room was very nice; just not a fan personally of pocket doors (restroom) - there was a balcony off the room so she/we got good shots/videos for the getting ready portion - Andalucia I we weren't anticipating being so far from the bride's room (she wasn't sure until after the fact if she could have requested her room to be in the Gardens building for ease); so it was definitely a trek to continuously walk/run back and forth from the chaos of the wedding day; we were also informed we wouldn't have access to the room (no time constraints specified) all day so we made sure to keep on putting our belongings back in the bride's room; we honestly could have kept everything there until after the ceremony so we could have easily just taken everything out and then had a shorter distance walk to our loved ones for the cocktail hour and reception to put underneath our respective ballroom tables prior to our grand entrance - the area that the cocktail hour took place was very nice! loved the bar and fireplace and a lot of congregating areas for the various guests - Catalina Ballroom was nice as well! loved the variation of the banquet tables and the round table seating; bar and photo booth were able to be comfortably placed in the corners as well; the bathrooms were very clean and spacious read more
