If you're looking for a great place to relax this is it. Kick back and watch the ocean, sufers, pelicans, dolphins etc. and relax by the pool or take a walk on the beach. But if your looking for the amentities of a hotel this ISN'T it. It's a small 36 unit time share complex. No restrurant on the grounds... more

We keep coming back to Wavecrest year after year and find something new to love each time. These units have a million dollar location overlooking the Pacific and within an easy walk to the delights of Del Mar and the beach. If you are lucky, you will get a one or two bedroom unit directly on the bluff over the... more

We were a little apprehensive about going here after seeing some of the experiences posted. My hubby and I decided that it must be because others don't want The Wave Crest to be discovered. We LOVED it!!!!!!!! In a VERY nice community. The train does pass by, but in our unit, we didn't even hear it. Very friendly, spacious, clean,... more

Very noisy!!! A lot of constuction nearby. Located with a busy street in back & a train track in front. The room was smaller than most hotel rooms, with a wall bed,& a tiny kitchen. I had called ahead, & was told by the woman at the front desk that I had a quiet room with a lot of space.... more

The staff is extremely friendly and the complex is very quaint. The units are "cottage style" very pretty and the grounds are lush and very well kept. The rooms themselves are spacious and well equiped. Great vacation spot. Short walk to the beach, park and shopping. Only possible drawback might be that the railroad tracks are between you and the... more

I wish I could live at WaveCrest! We just returned from a weeks stay at this resort. Wonderful location overlooking the Pacific Ocean, walking distance to many restaurants, Seagrove Park (next door) with easy beach access. The grounds are a tropical paradise without the humidity. Pool is ideal for children and an easy cooling dip for adults. Nice handrails for... more

We just got back from an experience at Wave Crest. Worst thing is no a/c! and we got probably the worst location of the complex. Unfortunately the weather was hot but being at the beach and being stuck in the smallest unit at the back with no air was extremely uncomfortable! We had to use 2 fans continually - no... more

We have traveled all over the world and Wave Crest is the ONLY place to stay for a week. The front two bedroom suites are great. more

I am sorry to say the person who rated this place "one star" was very mistaken...there is no better location in Southern California than Del Mar. The units are all low rise directly above the Pacific opening onto a grassy knoll which has served as the Wedding site for dozens of locals...the cost is reasonable for us versus the 300%... more

Wavecrest is a beautiful oceanfront timeshare property in the heart of Del Mar,next the town's gorgeous park. The 30 or so studio, 1BR and 2BR Cape Cod style cottages are immaculate and the staff is very nice. The pool overlooks the ocean. There is a common rec room for entertaining. Lovely flowers and foliage everywhere. Maids come by daily with... more
