We had a perfect experience at the Best Western Plus Blue Sea Lodge. The location is perfect and the girl who greeted us at the front desk was terrific. She was fun and upbeat and gave us wonderful restaurant suggestions. The room, halls, stairway, pool and whirlpool were spotless with not even sand visible. The hotel sits right on the... More

My wife and I enjoyed our stay at this Best Western. It's sort of in the "party" area of San Diego. Now while we weren't in San Diego to party, we still enjoyed the atmosphere at the Blue Sea Lodge. The staff are very friendly and courteous. The rooms are good, and the ocean view rooms are really nice. The... More

My wife and I booked a king partial-view room through Best Western's website. There was indeed a view of the ocean from the sliding glass door as long as no one was standing on the landing next to the pool. What we didn't notice until nightfall was a sustained rumbling coming from the vending machine / washer-dryer / ice machine... More

My wife and I had the BEST stay at the Best Western PLUS Blue Sea Lodge. The staff was so welcoming and made us feel like family. We enjoyed our ocean view balcony and great sunsets over the Pacific Ocean. I'd suggest splurging and going for a suite! Can't wait to get back to the Blue Sea Lodge. More

Little do you expect what awaits on the inside when you pull into the parking lot. That all changes once you walk inside. The builing is very clean and fresh and offers great views of Pacific Beach. The staff is helpful and considerate. There are shops and bars seconds away, yet the crashing waves void out the sound of the... More

Let me just start off by saying I am in my late twenties, very outgoing during the day, and enjoy getting out at night. This hotel was very well kept, has a good helpful staff, and is perfectly situated at the beach. I spent over a month researching the different hotels in the areas based on price, reviews, and location.... More

Just can't describe the beautiful view from our room. You have to go there and experience it. Located on the beach and in front is a paved walkway for miles to shopping, restaurants, bars, etc. Staff was friendly - room was comfortable - GREAT location and vacation. Thank You!! More

It is a great location. The hotel was clean, people helpful, quiet location. Great views and walking/riding area. I went with my 2 daughters ages 14 and 22. We had a great time. The only bad thing was paying for parking(at hotel), not sure why you have to pay, they have a nice sized parking lot, may be more crowded... More
