We had the partial ocean view room that was wonderful. Received a great rate online with a managers special. Every thing about our stay was wonderful from the staff to the room. Would recommend to anyone. More

We reserved the oceanfront room. We arrived at the hotel around noon and were told that they were more than happy to accommodate an early check in. We were offered the room of our choice on the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd floor. We choose the 3rd floor for the view. It was simply amazing to watch the sunset each evening... More

The Blue Sea lodge has a great location on the boardwalk. We easily walked to great restaurants from the hotel (jrdn, cafe mono, world famous). We paid for the upgraded partial ocean view - and it's a better ocean view than many "premium" rooms at mexican AI resorts - It was well worth the minimal upcharge. We were on the... More

Our room was on the first floor and had a large patio. Although the patio was directly next to a parking lot, seeing the beach & ocean 24 hours a day was so wonderful. If it wasn't for the fact that I wanted to try some different restaurants, we would not have had to drive because you could walk to... More

Stayed at the hotel for 3 nights, and we really liked it. You are right at the beach. If we are ever so lucky, that we could go to San Diego again, we would stay at Blue Sea Lodge. More

Everything about our stay was unbeatable. Customer service, gorgeous room, and prime location on Pacific Beach make it so I can't wait to return again. If you enjoy boogie boarding some of the best waves are just outside your room. Also great restaraunts and shops are within walking distance. More

When booking this we didn't expect it to be so close to the beach. and also the restaurants and bar area of Mission. We have stayed during "Cinco de Mayo" WE here, not aware of that when getting there. But... More

First, we'd like to thank MICHELLE for making our stay a memorable one. She should be given "employee of the month" for her customer service skills. Now, on to the hotel...I can't understand the nit-picky negative reviews on this place. My husband I have been traveling for 35 years so we've stayed at alot of places. This isn't the Ritz... More
