Top Rancho Santa Fe Hotel Reviews

Handlery Hotel

Handlery Hotel

8/10 Good
"We stayed for 4 days and one of the days our room was not cleaned. There was also construction going on in the parking lot next to our room and the workers were using noisy machinery outside our window/room at 7:30am in the morning. Also an alarm for the entry door went off due to a battery that needed replaced at 6:30am in the morning. The staff were apologetic but this was our vacation and we wanted to sleep and come back from our meeting to a clean room."

Ocean Beach Hotel

Ocean Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Love this small hotel and the fact that it is directly across from the beach with nothing between you and the ocean. About 30 steps to the sand and sea and right at the heart of all the action of bars, dining, shopping and absolute fun. Only wish is that the rooms had microwaves but, plenty of hot food and hot/cold drinks right on Newport Ave next to Ocean Beach Hotels. Please don't go here though. I need to ensure vacancy when I wish to go back to Ocean Beach!"

"I loved the patio. There was a large big pool clean, the fireplace and the Jacuzzi was my favorite. We did a lot of walking and my body was so sore and it felt really good to sit in the hot tub. The staff was very accommodating and the breakfast was very good. Everyone was friendly. I loved it here. I’ll definitely stay again."
