L'Auberge Del Mar

Exceptional

Most lovely stay!

Liked: Location is fabulous, the service is amazing, the food is terrific and complimentary yoga on the weekends! Loved that weekend events ended early as to not disturbing the guests.
Disliked: The pool area was quite small, but the beach is steps away so not a problem.

Passable

I won’t be going back.

Liked: Location and restaurant and staff
Disliked: The rooms smelled so extremely bad, like sewerage. We requested a room change which was accommodated but the new room also smelled terrible, just slightly less so. It is really wrong to have to pay that money and stay somewhere you can’t breathe clean fresh air. We were told that it is an old building so it smells.The air conditioner hums so much that it caused our floor to vibrate.

Exceptional

Liked: Hotel central to shops and restaurants
Disliked: No towel racks close to shower

Over charged. Ripped off.

Liked: Old. Tired. Run down
Disliked: Not on the beach as described

Enjoyable

Disliked: Very noisy neighbors. Small children slamming doors and lots of crying temper fits day and night. Parental shouting.

Beautiful relaxing resort that feels...

Liked: Location, proximity to beach, Sam driving the golf cart to the beach was excellent, relaxing pool and lobby, coffee bar was understaffed on a Tuesday morning but the barista was patient and calm, service was prompt. Room service menu was outdated but not a big deal.
Disliked: Not much! Returning in May and holding a graduation luncheon there!
