My heater broke down, so I changed my room on the second day. I had a hard time on the first evening.

The view from the balcony was wonderful. It was December so getting on the beach was not something we wanted to do. Staring at the Pacific Ocean was great. Parking is the best. It's covered and gated. We could leave Christmas presents in the car without worry.

Solana is such a nice, quiet vacation spot. We walked to the beach every night and watched the sunsets. Its alot less busy than neighboring Del Mar but equally as beautiful.

5/5 - Excellent

LOVED it! Enjoy watching sunset from the beachfront.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveler

Solana Beach is a small charming town that has great beaches, good food, shopping on Cedros, and a wonderfully relaxed vibe. It's a great place to stay on vacation-centrally located between downtown San Diego and North County San Diego, close to all.
