"The resort is surrounded by beautifully maintained tropical gardens which along with the location on shelter island makes for a quiet and relaxing location."

“What stands out here is the private beach, a rarity in California, enhanced by bonfires and immediate access to water sports, plus proximity to the marina. I think couples will appreciate the adults-only pool, while families can take full advantage of on-site dining and cruiser bikes for exploring San Diego. A full-service spa rounds out the resort's appeal.”
