I really like Hyatt brand, service, and properties. However this property set up was a disappointment. So pay almost $900 a night and even though the room is nice but that is all you pretty much get. Pool is may be at best square 15-20ft. There is not much around the hotel area within walking distance yet the parking is valet only instead of leaving it comfortable to hop on car and drive around since not much to do at the hotel taking the pool out of equation. So honestly I am not sure was this property supposed to be truly a resort which we went there and got disappointed or something else. The beach next to hotel is also not the best in San Diego in our opinion. Service still as any other Hyatt property was great.

Beautiful location and modern design, we enjoyed our stay here. A+ attentive staff that was friendly, expedient and on-brand. The bar at sunset is not to be missed & features a well trained team with a craft forward skill set. Of note: as others have said, if you are not a fan of the restaurant, you’ll be challenged with room service (it’s an extension of the chef’s influence).

We enjoyed every moment at Alila Marea, from the check-in process to checking out with our valet. We were lucky enough to get an upgraded room with an ocean view. The food and service at the VAGA restaurant was excellent. The room was clean and had an amazing view. We were able to take advantage of the free ebike rentals. The lounge area was very relaxing with the views and sounds of the ocean waves. We highly recommend this resort if you get a chance to stay here.

As someone that spends over 180 nights a year in hotels I have to say that the Alila Marea exceeds all expectations! Service and staff are so friendly, helpful and professional. The location and rooms are lovely! The hotel industry standards have dropped incredibly over the years but not at Alila Marea. Highly recommend!

Fantastic hotel. Excellent staff, well-appointed rooms, large balconies, nice pool area. Very much enjoyed our visit. Best views are the rooms facing the west (ocean) from the second or higher floor. South rooms will face condos and north facing rooms will view the ocean, the nearly beach, and segments of the 101. Valet only. Some restaurants are within walkable distance, but not much. You will need water shoes for the beach (rocks).

I needed a place to stay for the Breeders' Cup, so I used hyatt points to book it. The room came with free breakfast. There was a nice pool and hot tub with an ocean view. The only problem with the hotel is that the shower pressure is so low, that it took a very long time to get the soap out of my hair. The room keys are made if wood, which is a nice touch. The shower had leaves on tip of it. Overall this is a great hotel.

Recently we had an "All Hands" corporate meeting at Alila, for our property management company Southwest Equity Partners, and it was amazing. The venue we had there was fantastic and suited us perfectly. The lunch out near the pool overlooking the ocean was excellent as well. What really made this place stand out however was the people. At one point during our meeting, a new Mom in our employ needed a place to feed her baby, and as opposed to uncomfortably feeding her son in her car, the wonderful staff at the Alila Marea found her a nice place onsite to do so. Truly Thankful for your staff going above and beyond!

Nice location. Pool area is really tiny. Bad food choices, not enough food choices and poor food quality. I've read other reviews with similar feedback only to see the hotel management brush them off. We wanted to relax in the resort but were forced to eat at local restaurants outside of the resort after the very first meal/night. That takes away the whole "stay at a resort" idea if you truly want to relax. At least for us. Will not come back because of it. Not worth 600+ dollar a night. That said, the resort staff was very professional and made us feel special.

We were skeptical upon arrival as I was not impressed w/ customer service when calling prior to arrival. As a matter of fact, we reduced from 3 nights to 1 night. However, check-in was friendly and attentive. Location/ views very nice - also right off 2 busy streets surprisingly. Room was beautifully decorated and spacious with partial/ side ocean views on higher floor (3). Would not have enjoyed patio. Pool area grants great ocean front views but is small. Signage and lighting is poor. Hallways are very dark and directional signage - where existing - barely legible. While I appreciate contemporary/ modern it may appear very cold to others. Breakfast was excellent, dinner average. Host desk needs training but I realize the hotel just opened. Nice setting but overpriced at $860/ night

First of all, I really must send a heartfelt appreciation for our Concierge, Alyssa, who provided a remarkably welcoming atmosphere upon check-in; a genuine smile and sweetness prevailed throughout our stay. In addition, she accommodated a last minute request for a special event of ours, which elevated our experience all the more. She really made our visit special! The suite itself is quite beautiful, from the beach and ocean view to the calming interior decor. Breakfast was quite delicious, uncommon among many hotels today, and the service was excellent. Here, it is important that I note the quality of the restaurant coffee and cappuccino, again a rarity among current hotel offerings. Thank you , Alyssa, and all of the staff who went out of their way to be kind and respectful to us. With sincerest gratitude,
