Also beware of resort fee it’s a hidden charge they have around $60 USD per day over and above the Expedia price. We checked out early because of the bed bugs."Reviewed May 24, 2026Roundtrip • Denver (DEN) - San Diego (SAN)DEN - SAN • Nonstop SAN - DEN • Nonstop - Los Bungalows

Rancho Santa Fe6 nights9.4/10 - Exceptional (116 reviews)"Great place to stay in the San Diego area, located in a high-end neighborhood inside a golf club. The rooms, which appear to have been recently and tastefully renovated, are spacious, clean, and quiet. The welcome amenities (gummy bears and nuts) are a nice touch. We will definitely stay here again when we’re back in the area. The only minor downside for us was the lack of a full sit-down breakfast service, although there are plenty of places for breakfast just a short drive away."Reviewed May 18, 2026Roundtrip • Denver (DEN) - San Diego (SAN)DEN - SAN • Nonstop SAN - DEN • Nonstop - Ocean Park Inn
