The hotel is located in a very nice area and is just across the street from the beach. The front desk employees were very accommodating. The Studio Ocean View was very lovely and clean. I would love to go back one day.

Greetings d-for-dylan, Thank you for staying at the Pantai Inn. I appreciate you recognizing the amazing team that we have and will share your feedback with them. The Studio Ocean view are the perfect room for a quick getaway with an amazing view. They are also one of the room types that you can wake up in bed with a view of the Pacific Ocean. We would love to welcome you back to the Inn very soon! Ryan

Greetings cindycarolinaortiz75, Thank you for visiting the Pantai Inn and taking the time to leave a stellar review. Also thank you for acknowledging the amazing team we have. Cleanliness is our top priority at the moment and we are thrilled you noticed the efforts of our hard work. The Pacific Ocean can not be beat for a time and place to get away and refocus life during this stressful time. Thank you, Ryan

Front desk manager was very accommodating and the view was amazing. The room linens were very soft and I the rooms are very well decorated. But the fire pit really was my favorite area to hangout while it’s got great running areas nearby on the ocean.

Unfortunately our experience at the Pantai Inn was not as great as some of these other reviewers. First and foremost we really were expecting more of a luxury hotel but to be honest we found the this place to be just a glorified motel. There is no restaurant or food service . The room itself while large, felt very old and kind of smelled a little bit funky. Extremely overpriced in my opinion. Looking back the best thing by far about our stay was the location which is essentially across the street from the beach, however it was EXTREMELY crowded. Basically you can walk to the beach and all the local tourist attractions from the hotel and that is a big plus. Although the front desk was very friendly and tried to accommodate all our needs it just did not live up to the 5 star expectations set forth on this site. On another note the hotel is supposedly a member of the Luxury Hotels rewards program. However since I booked my trip with the hotel rather than the Luxury Hotels program I was denied any points and received 0 credits for my stay. That is a bunch of BS. SO if you do choose to book this motel please do not book exactly with them if you are planning on getting your rewards points. But honestly I would have rather stayed anywhere else especially not a place with a mold smelly room and no restaurant. I hate to be the guy to disagree with the other reviewers but I would not recommend this hotel and I surely will not be staying here upon any return to La Jolla.…

Greetings Jgrammatic, I would like to apologies for the less than perfect stay your experienced back in August. Thank you for recognizing the efforts of the Front Desk team. It seems as if it were not for the décor you may have enjoyed your stay more. Due to Covid restrictions we were no longer able to provide the buffet breakfast. While we are a part of the Small Luxury Hotel collection, you are correct if you don't reserve a reservation through them it does not earn you points as there are often multiple ways to book and discounts offered through third parties. If you would like to discuss further, please feel free to contact me directly. Ryan White

My wife and I decided to stay at this hotel for two nights based on TripAdvisor reviews. I was skeptical to stay here after looking at the pictures but the reviews won us over. I arrived and was treated very well by the staff. However, when taken to my one bedroom ocean view room I was completely shocked. The room smelled appalling and the place was in very poor condition. I’m a discerning traveler who as been fortunate enough to travel to many beautiful hotels in six continents. I can’t travel internationally because of Covid so we tried La Jolla. I immediately went to reception and offered to leave if I would only be charged for one night not two. The receptionist was very helpful and professional about the situation agreeing to only change for one night. I left the hotel after approximately 15 minutes. That cost $620. My mistake, don’t stay here if you used to five star hotels. Honestly, I haven’t stayed in anything similar to this since I was a poor law student. The bathroom was pathetic and the carpet was disgusting. Paint damage on the wall and the furniture was in very poor repair. The balcony was filthy and rusty. …

Greetings chrisoT7530XB, My apologies about the less than 5 star experience during your visit. The smell in the room is unacceptable as we strive to offer a safe and very clean environment especially during this time. I thank you for acknowledging the professionalism of the team and would be happy to see if there is another room type that suites your needs better. I appreciate the feedback and the opportunity to improve the Inn for your future enjoyment. Please feel free to contact me directly about the experience. Ryan
