I had a fabulous time at this hotel! The luxurious atmosphere combined with great amenities made my stay unforgettable. The rooms were beautifully decorated and comfortable, while the dining experience at the Amaya restaurant was delightful. The service was attentive, but at times felt a bit too eager. Overall, I can't recommend this place enough for a relaxing getaway, though I found the dining menu a bit limited in choices.

We had a wonderful stay at the Grand Del Mar resort with exceptional service from start to finish.

My experience at this elegant resort was truly remarkable! The luxurious and spacious rooms were a highlight, complemented by the attentive staff who genuinely made our stay exceptional. I appreciated the extensive amenities available, from the relaxing spa to engaging family activities. However, the location is somewhat remote, making it a bit of a challenge to explore nearby attractions, and while the dining was generally good, there is room for improvement in menu variety. Overall, I found great value for the price.
