Upon arriving, we did have a few slight hiccups with our room, (we had to move a few times) First room, no AC. Second Room, No Electricity, Third Room was near the lobby and not so private like our original..... However, our 4th room was wonderful!!! All thanks to Georgia!!! She really took care of my partner and I, as it was our first trip together and we were very overdue for a vacation. Obviously some things are out of peoples control, and I'm beyond grateful for the We stayed in a King Suite, which was super comfortable and the access to the bay was just steps from our room right onto the beach. My dog also had a wonderful time!!! He was welcomed just as much as we were. Having the ability to swim and play fetch in the bay really made our trip whole. We had dinner and cocktails at Bianci and had wonderful service. Sophia went above and beyond to give us amazing recommendations as well as pleasant and fabulous conversation. She even catered to my dog and brought him water and lots of love!!! The Manager (whose name I forgot) and the bartender "Senaida" were also super hospitable. Overall the entire trip was wonderful and my partner and I will absolutely be back in the near future! Thanks so much for the amazing time!!! And thank you Georgia for taking the best care of us that I've ever experienced in San Diego!

This is a particular kind of review because I attended a Prom at the Catamaran on Friday evening…read more The party was from 7-10, and adults arrived a bit earlier than the Junior and Senior attendees. We had most of the upstairs space available for the kids including a large and airy ballroom, and adjacent rooms with spectacular views of the bay where we could sit outside on a balcony. There was food offered for the kids including veggie crudites, mini pizzas, chicken fingers and a huge array of desserts (churros, cookies, brownies, etc.) The space is large and inviting, and tropical in theme. Very on brand for San Diego and it feels like you are on vacation when you enter this space. Some of the decor seems dated and was giving "Golden Girls vibes", but because the location and everything else is solid, it does not really take away from the overall experience. The service, from the bartenders who were making mocktails for everyone to the servers who were keeping the food restocked and clearing away used dishes, was very attentive and present. They were cool, calm, and collected in the midst of kids doing very "kids" type things... hacky sack in the hallway anyone? There were several managers present throughout our Prom as well. They were attentive, and helpful. The kids seemed to have a great time, and so did the adults. The hotel itself is in a vibrant and very exciting location. You're on the bay, and across the street is the ocean. There are plenty of eateries and activities within walking distance, and this is the perfect location for a beachy stay or function. Due to these perks, this property is on the pricey side though, so keep that in mind. Mahalo!

This place is absolutely perfect in every way. Except-I was…read moresitting out outside for coffee in the morning for at least 25 minutes and when I finally went into the restaurant area to ask for service, they told me that there wasn't service outside until 11:30.

The manager Isabel went above and beyond to make me feel special and I truly did. All the staff were so kind from the moment we walked in and made us feel right at home. Shortly after getting to our room, Isabel sent a charcuterie board, chips with salsa and guac, and a sparkling non alcoholic cider to the room with a very sweet note. It was incredibly thoughtful and so appreciated. After that we all had a very relaxing time at the spa, and I had a great prenatal massage. As we were leaving the spa they gave me a little goodie bag as a congratulations which made my heart melt. The rooms were so cozy and clean and the beds were very comfy. We all woke up refreshed the next day and some of us even made it to yoga! I am so grateful to have had my babymoon here and grateful to Isabel for truly making it an experience I'll never forget. We loved it so much my friend bought my baby a little Lodge at Torrey Pines onesie from the gift shop! I have since had my baby and every time she wears it, it reminds me of our great weekend at the lodge. I now recommend staying here to all of our friends. Thanks for making a pregnant girl feel so special

Everything from the grounds to the rooms felt well cared for and thoughtfully designed.

Service was solid and the overall experience felt polished without being over the top. Definitely a spot I'd come back to--would absolutely stay here again.

Our room had a roomy bathroom that included a shower and a bathtub, comfy beds with ok pillows (like any other hotel), a large TV, etc... We had a great view of the harbor as well! There is a pool, a restaurant with outdoor seating in front of the harbor, and a lawn for activities. It's really not necessary to valet here because they have their own dedicated parking garage for self-parking. The front desk is friendly and informative. It's a little challenging to figure out where to go to find your room, so listen when they explain the details!

Marriott is usually reliable, but this hotel is reliably forgettable.

This was my first time visiting San Diego Mission Bay Resort which happened to fall on Memorial Day…read moreweekend (Monday). We had a cabana rented which was great. The staff here were incredibly friendly and attentive. They not only were knowledgeable about the menu, everyone worked together as a team to ensure seamless service start to finish. It was like as soon as I put the order in, within 5-10 minutes the order was already out! Grabbed the burger and fries which were super tasty. Also snagged the chicken tenders and fries which were great. Another dish ordered were the hamburgers from the kids menu, which also came back as a winner for us. Regarding the drinks, I am happy to report the Froze Rose was a massive hit! None of the tastes were overwhelming, perfectly mixed adult frozen beverage . For being pool side food, I was so impressed by how good the food was. The pool itself is very family friendly. I didn't see any life guards, and I'm not sure if that is standard at every hotel resort pool. There is a splash pad for kids with seating surrounding it, which can be fantastic for the younger kids (younger than 5 or 6) to enjoy some time in the pool as well. My children had a wonderful time & there were so many friendly kids including us in their play time. One of the many reasons I absolutely love San Diego-we are just one of a kind when it comes to the vibes. Always a great idea to get a resort pass, which is what we did here. Parking is included that way, but there is free parking just outside the parking lot all along the road in the event you want to take that route. The grounds for the hotel are absolutely gorgeous and well put together. So excited for future trips back to Mission Bay Resort!

I visited the SDMBR for business. I was quite excited since the photos looked amazing and my…read more$450/night room was being paid for. I was so happy the first evening. I arrived in time for our 6:30 welcome dinner. The food was very good and the cocktails were also good. In the evening light, the resort looked amazing and the views over the bay were lovely. After dinner, I joined four others for a cocktail around the fire and that was magical. I had a bay view and I regretted not adding another day. The room was nice. I could see the ocean but there was not screen on the sliding door, which seemed weird. Luckily it's not mosquito season yet and I enjoyed keeping the slider open. The room was clean so yay, but nothing special. The next day, the meeting room was nice and again the food was quite good, although there was no theme: like Indian rice and some sort of coconut thai fish and chimichurri steak. All solid, but not thematic, maybe they had leftover rice and needed to serve it. I was really looking foward to pool time, but it was very crowded with young kids. So i went to the hot tub, which was quite cloudy. Mission Bay in that area is not a nature experience or looked great for swimming, so in the end, I was just as glad to leave the next day and wound up not thinking I would stay again. For this type of stay, I prefer the Carlsbad Inn, which has adults only hot tubs and such. However, this place would be great for parents, all the rentals and lots of activities. I did rent a kayak. He gave me a triple but just took two seats out but it was too much boat for me and I think they could have done better. However, I loved the front desk staff. They could not have been nicer and more thoughtful. Especially Isabel and the gent who checked me in. They could not have been more amazing and helpful.

This really is a nice resort offering lots of great activities without needing to leave the island. This includes a nice little sandy beach, yummy food options, a little market, reservable sports activities, spa treatments, kids activities, and more! I loved that the island had little nooks and crannies to explore. My favorite morning activity was heading to the morning cafe, ordering a coffee/light breakfast, and walking by the shoreline. There were two restaurants available and they both had delicious options. I believe one of the spots offers live music on select nights. During the day, there was also a little market which offers snacks, clothes, s'more necessities, and more. Additionally, I took advantage of the sports activities by booking the pickleball court. I picked up the equipment (paddles + balls) and headed over there with my group. We had a great time! There pool facilities were also wonderful. There's a few different heated pools and they hosted a little movie night with free popcorn on one of the nights. Lastly, the staff was really great! Everyone I encountered was nice and could answer my questions. No complaints at all! As for the surrounding area, there are fun spots (Seaworld, restaurants, etc.) all within driving distance. The islands a little isolated, but there's lots to do around the city. Would definitely go again!

Turns out the back door on our room did not have an RFID for our key card to open the door. It was a manual lock being on the resort My Wife and I didn't think much of that and went to hang out with a few people. We met on a fire pit a couple doors over. During that time somebody came into our room, stole my wallet, my credit cards, my cash, and my wife's purse. We found out when security called us the next morning to say they found credit cards and things strung along the beach. I had to cancel all of my credit cards all my auto payments all because they did not have room key access for our back door, but they did on other back doors. This hotel is taking zero responsibility blaming me for being robbed when if they just simply have the key key lock on the back door none of this would've happened. I would not recommend this place. Feels like we got violated twice thanks paradise point
