Alila Marea Beach Resort Encinitas

When I arrived I was told complimentary valet parking and turns out they charge $60 or something like that when you go to check out. Room was thin walls and we heard our neighbors which woke us up at 7am. Hotel was very empty but they put us next door to loud neighbors with 20 plus rooms empty in both directions. Stay at a better hotel. This one is not worth the money.

Beautiful convenient hotel but terrible incompetent staff from top to bottom. Front desk manager Amir was wrong and smug about it. Imagine being wrong and smug. Stuff like that will get your blood boiling. Voice complaint to operation manager Sydney and was promised a call back. Never received one. These people aren't qualified to service a motel 6 but yet here they are to ruin your vacation

Nickel and dime resort - four seasons prices for holiday inn service. Staff was young, inexperienced, took 30 minutes to get our luggage in our room. There was a crib in our room for some reason for the entirety of the stay as well. 55 a day for valet is a joke, so is their coffee shop, and the hotel restaurant is just new agey tripe. No way is this place worth the $$.

We went here for an anniversary trip. The staff was mostly excellent. The bellmen and front desk were particularly amazing. The hotel is beautiful and the rooms mostly have stunning ocean and estuary views.

Love this hotel and the area. Rooms are wonderful, restaurant is quite good. The town is a typical CA beach town with a mix of casual and good restaurants along with some quirky yet quaint shops and businesses. Close to outlet malls. Great road biking all around. Beaches are best for surfing, a bit of a drive for sandy beaches.

Great hotel but def not for the price. A glorified Hyatt with Four seasons pricing. Could have better staff customer service for the price. Great beds, great views and fun drinks!

We really enjoyed our stay here. It was very relaxing. We had a balcony room facing the ocean and it was nice to hear the waves at night. The overall experience was very nice and pleasant. The rooms were clean and the staff was very professional and friendly.
