Monse and her team has been very accomodating. I love the historical feeling of the house. The condition of the house js so well maintained, it feels very comfortable and home like. Breakfast and happy hour have been pleasant. It feels like coming home after an afternoon at beach. I love there's a fireplace in the second room, it feels very nice. The house is close to Coronado beach, restaurants and cafes.

The situation of the hotel was ideal, by the water and within a parkland setting. It was surprisingly quiet most of the time. At night there was some noise from the airport but it wasn't too obtrusive. The nearby children's play area was a bonus. The pool was useful and the spa very pleasant. Breakfast was very good with plenty of options. The hotel decor was clean, tasteful and modern.

Incredibly charming hotel, we will come back for sure! We stayed for 8 nights : one night in the « Nomad » room and 7 nights in « The Bunk » room. First of all, prior to our arrival, the concierges were very responsive to all of our questions and demands. On site, the staff is so helpful and you can feel that they want to make your stay enjoyable. Each room was very clean and the beds were extremely comfy. The common areas were delightful and luxurious, with fresh flowers and incredible attention to detail. You can tell that the owners really put some thought into every little aspect of the hotel. The Nomad is a spacious room with a peak on the ocean. The Polaroid in this room was really a great surprise and we had fun with it. The Bunk is a smaller room without any view, but we preferred it for our week stay because of the kitchenette (large sink, mini fridge, Nespresso, kettle, toaster, large Breville toaster oven / air fryer). We were traveling with our 7 year old son, so the kitchenette was really useful for us. Parking was plentiful on the street and we did not need to pay. The location was fantastic. Plenty of shops, restaurants and of course, the ocean (and the seals!!!), all within a very short walking distance. All and all, we had a fabulous stay and it was the best hotel we have ever experienced.

This is great for family vacations. It has multiple pools so it never felt crowded. The breakfast at Barefoot on the Beach was terrific. Although we did not take advantage of it, I saw other families enjoying the bonfire pits on the sand at the bay. We definitely intend to do that on our next visit. The staff was very friendly - front desk; cleaning; maintenance; restaurant - everyone said hello and was accommodating.
