The Wayfarer is our go-to when in San Diego. You are steps from the beach and can be oceanfront if you choose the right room. It is perfect walking distance to numerous restaurants and shopping. The patio and pool are great. Our last stay we watched every sunset from the hot tub. Clean comfortable rooms throughout the property. Love this spot!

Room not as pictured on site

Check in was fine; staff were just doing their job and not much interaction except to tell us the rules of the property. Smiles limited. The room was outdated and musty smelling. The bed was comfortable. The view was amazing and made it worth our stay. The location was perfect!

Loved it

A terrific spot right on the beach. Our oceanfront room had an unbeatable view of the beach. Service was excellent throughout our four night stay. Comfortable beds and nice pool/spa area as well. We will definitely return here for our next San Diego visit.
