I was there in the end of March 1999, and the temperature was about 65F. The hotel was deserted and had almost an apartment complex feeling to it. I have a feeling that if it was high season and the resort was bustling with people, it would have had a much better flavor to it.
All in all, a nice hotel but not as nice as advertised.
The pool was large and nice, and the grounds had quite a few amenities- tennis, windsurfing, a spa, restaurants (slightly overpriced for the food they offer), a fitness center and an 18-hole golf course. Be prepared to walk. The resort is made up of bungalows, and all the amenities are spread out over a substantial area. Keep the map that they give you when you check in! You will need it just to find your room, let alone trying to find the exit!

89.00- 199.00 depends on the room
great view of bay, great pools, rooms are nice. But don't eat at the restaurant there, way too pricey. Has mini golf course & great little gift shops. Theme: MotelComparison: about average

If I were looking for a tranquil and romantic weekend getaway with my partner, this might not be my first pick. But I wanted to take my mama for a fun but relaxing overnight in San Diego for Mother's Day, and this top-end resort on a little isle of its own in the Mission Bay ended up being ideal for us. The grounds here are huge and absolutely lovely, with palm trees, hibiscus and lots of greenery everywhere, so it was perfect for little strolls before or after a meal. There are lots of little diversions here, including an 81-step observation tower, where you get not only a great overhead view of the hotel grounds but also of the bay.
This would be a great place for a family. There were kids everywhere, and they seemed to love the ubiquitous swimming pools and the little mini-golf course near the lobby. The resort's also practically across the street from Sea World, which may be walkable - I'm not sure. And that brings up another point: If you're looking for cozy neighborhood accommodations where you can walk around to check out local cafes and restaurants, etc., this is not the place. There's not much within walking distance to here – you have to get in your car and drive to get off resort property. That said, it's a nice central spot for typical SD sightseeing - a quick drive to Old Town, Balboa Park, PB, OB and not far to downtown either.
About the room: I think we got the lowest-tier type of room, as I booked an internet special (it totaled just over $200 for a 2-queen room, including parking and other fees), but it was comfortable and quiet with enough space, a roomy bathroom, the usual amenities (TV, iron, coffeemaker, fridge). There wasn't anything luxe about it, but it was comfy. Those willing to spend more might look into the beachside rooms on the fringes of the resort. The little stretches here are private, quiet and have bonfire pits.
