We booked this hotel through Costco travel for our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 small children). I would say the stay was average. Overall the room was clean. However, there are old stains on the curtains and bed box spring that we noticed. With Costco travel it covers the resort fees, which was nice, but there is a $45 a night parking fee. The pool and lobby area is nice and visually appealing. The street the hotel is on does have RVs that park all along the road, which didn’t look great. Some looked like they’ve been parked there a long time and yucky. The hotel does require key access to get into the parking lots. However, this wouldn’t stop people from walking onto the property. (We didn’t have any issues though) There is several nice big parks in walking distance, which was nice for the kids. Overall, I would say it was okay, but we’ve stayed on the other side of mission bay and had better experiences.

"Think Twice"

San Diego Mission Bay Resort is the first resort I have visited that does not offer or host activities. The title "resort" is deceiving with this facility. Resorts offer a wider range recreational activities and amenities; SDMBR does not; there was not a single activity offered. My children were absolutely bored. The "resort" is over-price and offers nothing and charges you for everything. There is no community microwave offered and they charge a $25 fee to use the microwave. The parking fee is $45 per night, however, the security gates are NEVER lowered risking the chances of theft. Why charge a parking fee if no security is provided. Also, there is a buildup of mold in the bathrooms and broken furniture in the rooms. While housekeeping comes daily to clean your room, they do not dust or vacuum. We had two rooms and both rooms were dusty including the bathroom and the shelves that house the towels and wash clothes had build-up dusty and dirt. Last, the maintenance staff is not reliable. placed a service call due to a broken glass side table that was discovered upon checkin into the room. Maintenance never arrived to remove the table. The rooms are old, outdated and have a moldy smell. I would think twice before booking.

"Friendly staff at very dated and rundown resort"
TripAdvisor user rating 3.0 out of 5
Reviewed April 16, 2025 NEW
Buildings, hallways, pools all dated and need refreshing. Our room had a nice view of the bay and appeared to have been updated more recently but overall the resort feels tired and outdated. Key card access required to enter the parking lot, access the pool and get towels at the pool is not my typical hotel experience at a 4 star which is why I’m saying three stars. That could be because of the nomad lifestyle in Mission Bay which takes some getting used to.

"Satisfied"
TripAdvisor user rating 4.0 out of 5
Reviewed April 16, 2025 NEW
It was a beautiful resort located in the central area of all the tourist attractions we went to (10 - 15 mins away) including La Jolla, Belmont Park/Mission Beach, Sunset Cliff, Balboa Park, Little Italy. The staff was nice and accommodating. The beds were comfortable. The pool area was nice. I loved the boardwalk that was just right behind the resort, which was an awesome vibe. It was quieter when we went, we got to go in the hot tubs without it being congested. My main complaint was that the first room we were in (one of the smaller buildings with two floors - no elevator which was inconvenient with hauling up luggage), the room smelled kind of musty and flared up some allergies for two people that were with me. They kindly apologized and had us check out of that room (we stayed in that room one night) while they prepared another room for us the same day. It wasn't available until 4-5pm but that was ok with us since we were out and about anyways. We were very pleased with the new room - it was a whole new vibe that changed the mood for us from the first room. Another thing that was a bummer was that the rooms did not have a microwave. They didn't have a community microwave either which was explained to us it was due to cross contamination - which I get. It was $20 for a microwave. We were not aware of the $40 amenities charge per day until a couple days before we were going to arrive. You also had to pay $45 per car, per day. I'm not sure if I just didn't look into this but just be aware of this. Despite the $45 charge, I still would have rented a car vs Ubering everywhere. Other than these minor things, the stay was great. Thank you, staff for understanding and making us have a great experience.
