San Diego is one of my favorite destinations and the San Diego Mission Bay Resort is the perfect place to stay when visiting America's Finest City. Here is my full review and everything you need to know before booking a stay.
THE LOCATION
Located 10 mins away from downtown San Diego and the airport, the San Diego Mission Bay Resort is in the perfect location to visit and explore the city and surrounding areas.
The resort is located on the waterfront of Mission Bay making it the ultimate outdoor destination. This property is centrally located from all of the attractions and must see places in San Diego being a short drive from the beautiful suburban beaches of La Jolla, Downtown San Diego, or many of the nearby amusement parks.

As you arrive you will walk through their open air lobby perfect for enjoying the year round perfect weather in San Diego.

There are multiple 2 story buildings and one large tower that houses all of the resort’s guest rooms.
Many of the ground floor rooms have large grass areas or fireplaces right outside the door which make the room feel larger. This is also great for quick access to enjoy the pool or beach areas.
Out back is the outdoor swimming pool and hot tubs. Enjoy the San Diego sunshine as you sit pool side under the palm trees or in one of their rentable cabanas.
