Pala Casino Spa And Resort

10/10 Excellent

" Very nice staff in all parts of the hotel. Nice selection of restaurants and food was very good. Room was spacios and clean and concert hall had great acoustics. Will be back. "

San Diego Mission Bay Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Maybe a little more family froendly than I'm used to - aka kids in hot tubs and doing cannon balls everywhere - but that's not on the resort. Ground are immaculately taken care of. Rooms are on point. Pool bar staff came in early to work on a busy weeked. Best part - my flight got delayed and they allowed me to stay pool side all day. That's above and beyond right there. I'll be back! "
