We stayed in a Del Mar Suite. Very very Private. The room was spacious and had a fabulous view. The private mini pool/hot tub on the terrace was great - you must go for that room level. Loved the special surprises delivered each morning and night. And tennis was awesome. We went mountain biking and to the beach, very easy... more

This is an amazing property! The villa we stayed in was intimate and incredibly comfortable. From the moment we were greeted by the valet, my wife and I were treated exceptionally well. This resort is in 'up in the hills' not far from San Diego. It is in a gated, sprawling compound comprised of villas, a clubhouse with restaurant, and... more

We have stayed at RV twice now with our 7 year old son and 5 year old daughter and both times it was a truly wonderful vacation. One of the attractions for our family is the fantastic tennis facility and pros. You don't need to play tennis to enjoy RV but if you do, you will probably never find more... more

My husband and I stayed here for our 2 year wedding anniversary. Went a few years ago while we were dating before the spa was completed so we were very excited to try it out, especially because it is now an Auberge resort. It is beautiful and relaxing with a quiet pool, plunge pools and jacuzzi surrounded by flowers and... more

Stayed only briefly, although we will be back several times over the next few months. Originally found the property via AMEX fine hotels and resorts and then researched in further on Trip Advisor. Very glad I did! Our room was quite spectacular and comfortable, probably 1400 sf with a very large, private patio. Very nicely appointed, fantastic bedding, comfortable furnishings... more

For an anniversary get away, my husband surprised me with a weekend stay at Rancho Valencia. From the minute we arrived, the service was impeccable. From the smiling and warm doorman (who was also our bellman) to the person who cheked us in on the front desk-they made us feel very welcome. They all used our names and wished us... more

We went here for a quick getaway for a couple nights. The grounds are very beautiful and the citrus trees and jasmine filled the air with flowery scents. Our one bedroom suite was large and comfortable. Our two teenage boys played tennis each day with a nice and knowledgeable pro. The pool area, restaurant, and other public areas were well... more

My wife and I stayed here recently because we received a gift certificate for the Essential Spa package. The grounds are very nice, and the room was spacious. But the place has deferred maintenance problems, for sure. More importantly, we thought the quality of the food was really poor (and not worth the cost). We had a lunch and a... more

My initial contact with the resort started off on the wrong foot, but they made up for it later. I am a travel agent and called the resort for an industry rate. I was quoted a rate and, although this trip is an ongoing event for our group, some of the ladies who were not going to attend decided to... more
