I'll be brief since others have previously done a good job of describing the hotel. The people were very nice and the service was very competent. The location is obviously an excellent one being right on the beach/ocean. There is a large community park next door as well (north side of the hotel). The restaurant is nicely done and the... more

We stayed at the La Jolla Shores hotel for 3 nights in late April. The location is fantastic -- the hotel is situated right on the beach and our ocean view room was directly on the beach with a beautiful view of La Jolla and the ocean. We woke up every morning to dolphins swimming along the coast and some... more

My boyfriend and I stayed here for one night as a precursor to staying at the Del Coronado for my birthday weekend. Let's just say, we were pretty disappointed, especially since the reviews on tripadvisor.com were overwhelmingly positive. One of the main complaints was that we had to walk through an area of swarming little flies every time we wanted... more

Spent three nights here with my wife and two boys ages 9 and 7. Very nice hotel and special off season rate was a bargain. Great location -- you can walk to many stores and restaurants, and the kayak tour places. No complaints. more

Perfect Spring Break for the little kids. Mine are 6 and 10. Very nice pool and hot spa and the beach was clean with gentle waves. Water was sort of cold (in the ocean) so we bought wet suits but the kids didn't use them much. The pool is heated and the hot tub is a great place for mom... more

The best thing about this hotel is, of course, its location on the beach. The rooms are large but very basic. When we first walked into the room the smell was of a very strong and unpleasantly cheap cleaning solution. Another major problem was that the TV was located in such a way that there was no way you can... more

My husband and I wanted a beach location in Southern Cal, but did not want to spend big bucks. The La Jolla Shores was a perfect location and reasonably priced for that location. It's true what some reviewers say about it being "tired." The units are older but perfectly clean and well maintained. Our room had a kitchenette that was... more

First - I've stayed here before - and to be clear - this property is located at 8110 Camino Del Oro in La Jolla. The location is fantastic. Great views - rumble of the ocean at night - salt water smell in the air - just wonderful. If you can tolerate the overpriced rooms, the disgusting bedspreads and blankets -... more

La Jolla Shores (The area itself) is incredible! The beach is spectacular! We sat on our balcony and watched dolphins, seals and sealions swim and play in the surf! This is such an incredible location, it is worth it just to be right on such a beautiful beach. The food in the attached restaurant is quite good also, try the... more
