“good location”

Reviewed April 4, 2013

Not my first time here and the room provided was not great. large and comfortable though. an "I-prefer hotel but they ignore that" 25 minutes to check in at 1am in the morning after a long flight was not the best start. Apart from check in the staff were excellent, and accomadated a late check out.

“"Seriously good experience."”

Reviewed April 3, 2013

I won a free night stay here by entering a contest through Facebook. I couldn't have been more happier with my stay. The customer service was excellent, the room was super clean and spacious, and view of the harbor was beautiful. I will definitely go back very soon.

Thank you very much for sharing. We appreciate your participation in our Facebook contest and are delighted to hear how much you enjoyed your experience. We look forward to welcoming you back and creating more memorable experiences in the near future at the Balboa Bay Resort. More

“Fantastic lodging on the Balboa Marina.”

Reviewed March 27, 2013

My son (age 7) and I got lucky on a discount hotel site and booked two nights here at a fabulous rate. We explored nearby Balboa Island and then spent 48 hours in relaxation by the heated pool and napping in uber comfortable beds. Rooms have private balconies, another plus. Staff was professional and courteous. Concierge Patrick made dinner reservations... More

“Right on the harbor”

Reviewed March 27, 2013 via mobile

When the weather is good this place has a wonderful bar for cocktails along the harbor in front of some of the biggest boats on the harbor. Great sunsets when the weather is good which is not that often anymore because of an coastal fog called June gloom that used to exist for a week of so during June. Now... More

“Nice night away but we won't be back”

Reviewed March 12, 2013

My husband and I went for a weekend get-away and stayed here with an online discount deal. That brought the base rate down significantly so it made the stay OK. I would not pay regular prices for this hotel because I don't think it is worth that. The fact that it has a yacht club attached that has exclusive rights... More

“Rooms feel like a Courtyard Marriott”

I attended for business, so did not take advantage of the outdoor spaces which could have improved this visit. The lobby and meeting spaces were beautiful - the decor was slanted to the heavy wood and very ornate fixtures, but still looked well kept. The meeting space we were in opened onto a cement dock that secured all of the... More

“Wonderful resort!”

Reviewed March 2, 2013

It was a treat to stay here! I would recommend a bay view room. It was expensive, but if you want to pamper yourself for a pleasant weekend try this place. The room was pretty, cheerful and comfortable. Loved the bathroom and the big tub. Although, one must be agile to climb into it. The carpet was a bit stained,... More
