I have stayed at ALL the 5 Star hotels and although there are certain amenities NONE come close to the location of Del Mar Motel on the Beach! My room was literally steps from the beautiful beach of Del Mar!! This is one of the most beautiful pristine beaches in Southern California and to spend a full day/weekend at the beach and have your room steps away is priceless!! I loved it so much my wife and I are going back in a few weeks!!!

Wonderful beachfront location. Classic motel format-no interior hallways-all rooms accessed from the outside. Nice seaside decor-not really fancy, but very nice. If you are looking for nicer accomodation, stay up on the highway. But then you will not be right on the beach. Upper and lower decks beachfront and literally steps to the sand and water. Lots of surfing action on the water-and a Baywatch-style professional lifeguard headquarters right next door.The guests there are really nice-easy to strike up a conversation. Yes, there are families with kids of all ages, but this is not a distraction. Free parking which is a real convenience. They have chairs, umbrellas and towels for guests to hit the beach. I could just go on and on. But it is the location that is so prime. Try it-I think you'll like it.…

Fabulously located right on the Del Mar beach, at the epicenter of New Year's Day's Penguin Plunge, this motel is a throwback to the old days of funky, low-rise, nonaggressive beach development--a far cry from the proposed, huge luxury resort to be built on a nearby bluff. I've seen the negative reviews, but my experience was positive--lovely, attentive staff; comfortably spacious room (Room 126, upstairs); table by the window for working plus a small desk; good bed w/ suitable lighting for reading. DMM's public spaces are pretty fabulous: Adirondack chairs for viewing the beach, tables for sitting & chatting over wine, barbecues for dinner. All for no extra charge. Renowned restaurants next door--Poseidon and Jake's--if you want to go upscale, but you can also BYOB and relax inexpensively at the motel. We were there over New Year's, which may offer a difference experience from high-season summer.…

What sweet, small, clean hotel literally right on the beach! There's a downstairs area with loungers on the property that you can bring a bottle of wine and literally look at the waves or right next to those loungers is the stairs that literally walk right on to the beach. There's also an upstairs area with chairs to bring your bottle of wine because it's still on the hotel property to again look at the beach. It is small little motel with plenty of parking but if for some reason you were to come back and no parking they would park for you, the people were really nice and it was very clean! Next door is a very popular restaurant called the poseidon that you have to go to to eat as well and the little town of Del Mar is just adorable.
