We love the bayfront room. The room was large and had beautiful windows overlooking Mission Bay. We rented bikes and road to the ocean, played putt, putt golf, and walked around the island. We also rented kayaks and kayak around the island a wonderful, restful Retreat.

The location is prime, right on the ocean. The facilities were decent, nothing too fancy but they pretty much had everything. Staff was available, friendly and helpful. My only gripe would be the room was musty. There was mold in the toilet that didn’t get clean even after housekeeping went through. Perhaps that’s just an ocean front thing? Overall the place was a good place to stay and I was happy I booked there. The beachfront is fabulous.
