My family and I stayed here only one night in February. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We utilized the restaurant and enjoyed all of our food selections. It was a rainy day so we did not get an opportunity to use the pool and the many outdoor amenities, however, the outdoor courtyard, pool and hot tub area were clean and looked nice. The weather broke and we were able to sit by a fire pit along the marina, which made for an enjoyable and relaxing evening. Overall would recommend for families and would stay here again.

Absolutely one of the best places we have ever stayed at! The suit was amazing and very spacious! We have two golden retrievers that we wanted to bring and they were more than accommodating to our needs. We had a Marina view with balcony and it was gorgeous! Definitely recommend and will be back!

The location is awesome. It felt like we we were right in the middle of all of the places in San Diego we wanted to visit i.e Downtown areas, mission beach, ocean beach, balboa park. Nice staff and great looking property. Next time we're in San Diego this will be at the top of the list of places to stay.

I paid much mo to get there. Received service much less for the money I paid. Old smell in the room, noise drunk people in the middle of the night. Someone in the next room left the phone on the table and it beeped all night. I could get much more in Haytt or Marriot for the money I paid.

Beautiful place with kind and helpful staff! However after paying a daily resort fee and parking fee on top of the rental for the room you still have to pay expensive separate fees to do the activities the resort offers.

We loved the location the amenities it offered. Nice decor and vibe of the resort. The one small issue we had they made it right. We will stay here again!

We came to San Diego to support some friends in a sailing race. We stayed at the Kona Kai for one night. The front desk person, Jesse, who checked us in, was very disinterested and too efficient. He spoke so quickly in a voice barely audible, that had to repeatedly ask him, "What?" He did not explain the $100 hold on the credit card, or the necessity of a $45 parking charge. He recited the speech he gives for every guest checking into the hotel. We liked the decor of our hotel room. It was clean, colorful and comfortable. The bathroom was not good. The toilet was too small. It was very low and very small. It seemed like it was the same size as the toilets in my first grade classroom bathroom. The bathroom was very big and sp****ly decorated, this contrast was comical. I asked to have the $45 resort fee removed because we did not use any of the services dedicated to the resort fee. The front desk check out person said she could not remove the charge. Resort fees seem like pure greed.

We had a bit of a hiccup with our room but it was resolved and the staff was very helpful and polite. The suite we had was gorgeous and added to the overall experience. The customer Service alone keeps us coming back. Thank you so much Zachary, Enrique, and Ray!
