We were in town for the race track. Your hotel is perfectly located. It’s a 7 minute uber to Del Mar racing. Plenty of restaurants within walking distance. Wife enjoyed the shops. Also being right on the beach was great for early morning walks. Very relaxing visit.

This is a little gem of a hotel and very well run. Looks recently updated. Everyone was nice and more than on top of things. Perfect location. Parking can be a bit tight so we just walked or ubered. Restaurants next door are great. Pizza up the street. Beach etc. The beds and pillows were comfy - rooms a good size. They cleaned the exterior hallways at least twice....had towels and wine and were constantly on top of things. We had a small Expedia issue with the booking and the property manager was above and beyond. We will be back Del Mar Beach hotel!

It was an updated hotel that was right on the beach felt clean and fancy enough. The only drawback is that parking was a little bit of a hassle. Their parking lot is small.

This is a gorgeous little property located directly on the beach with convenient beach access. The staff members were so kind, welcoming, and generous!!! They give you a welcome glad of Rose! We ate dinner and breakfast on one of their several outdoor tables, which all had a beautiful ocean view. 100% I'll be back with my family and highly recommend this spot for travel.

My family and I are regulars at the Del Mar Beach Hotel because it is fabulous. It is the quintessential old school family owned California beach hotel. Completely renovated in with a classic beach palette and with the most comfortable beds on Earth. The staff is always super friendly and helpful. You'd expect to pay far more to stay at a place on the sand in San Diego. . . especially one that makes you feel like it's your home away from home.
