Very good stay!

I had picked this hotel for an extra day in San Diego after a cruise mostly for the the pictures it showed of it's location online.
We arrived via Uber about 10am and were promptly checked in by Alex and Clinton in the nicest way possible! Our room was ready, which was areal blessing to us, since hubby didn't feel well and needed to rest.
We stayed in the Casa Marina building, room 863, which had a beautiful view to the channel (I didn't expect a view at all and it was amazing!). We immediately used the balcony and really enjoyed it.
The room was large and well appointed, a bit older in it's appearance, but very clean and comfortable!
The property has two pools, a hot tub, exercise room, computers and a restaurant on site. Breakfast is not included in the price, but available at the Blue Wave restaurant (we didn't have breakfast, since we had to be at the airport at 6am).
We had dinner that night though at the Blue Wave (see separate review).
All staff we had contact with was amazingly nice and I had a question about my bill after we got home and Anette took care of it immediately!
Yes, it might be an older property, but would love to stay there again!

We had a great stay. Our room overlooked a marina that we really enjoyed. We enjoyed walking around the whole island. That’s the hotel is on. I would go back tomorrow if I could the only thing that I really dislike that was the restaurant if you just need some appetizers it’s fine but their meals were terrible.

The hotel and staff were amazing! At the last minute they accommodated all 33 of our group for a dinner! It was a grad success and Patricia- the housekeeper- did a fabulous job cleaning my room!
