Калифорния, США: отели на тему «Пляж»

My wife and I visited Catalina Island for our 28th anniversary — our first time back since before we were married in 1997. We chose the Catalina Canyon Inn specifically for the pool, jacuzzi, on-site restaurant, and shuttle service. Their website is very nice and seemed like a perfect match for the occasion. Unfortunately, very little matched what was advertised. Shuttle: The shuttle was not waiting at the Catalina Express port when we arrived on the last ferry Saturday evening which was unexpected. Four of us were left waiting in the dark for about 20 minutes until the other couple called the hotel. The driver was friendly and apologized, but this set the tone for the weekend. The shuttle was consistently unreliable throughout our stay. They tell you to call the driver directly, but he often didn't answer. You'd end up having to call the hotel instead, and the shuttle only seemed to come after someone went inside and told the front desk in person. At one point we waited 45 minutes. Some guests got frustrated and just decided to walk, but the hotel sits at the top of a steep hill — not a realistic option, especially for older guests like us. Their website suggests the shuttle runs regularly, but that was far from our experience. Restaurant: We arrived at the restaurant at 7:30 PM Saturday and were turned away, even though their website says they're open until 8:00 PM. We had to rush down the hill to find dinner to-go in town before the shuttle stopped running at 8:45. It was a shame we didn't even have time to stay and eat on our anniversary or face having to trek up that hill. The next morning I mentioned this to the restaurant owner, who insisted they closed at 8:00 and that she was there. She then told us the restaurant closes at 2:00 PM on Sundays — so dinner there that night wasn't an option either. She was very friendly though I must say. On Monday we finally had breakfast before checkout. The food was mediocre and didn't match the glowing reviews at all. The prices were also odd — $12 for mozzarella sticks, $20 for nachos, but only $11 for pulled pork sliders, which you'd expect to be the pricier item. The pricing just didn't add up. While we were there, another couple was turned away at 1:30 PM because the restaurant closes from 2–4 on Mondays. We could feel their frustration. Jacuzzi: The jacuzzi we were looking forward to was covered up and converted into a gazebo with chairs. At first we couldn't find it but yea. No mention of this on the website. Room issues: The soap dispenser in the shower was empty. The front desk told us we can mention it to housekeeping, who didn't come until after 5:00 PM. We got the soap and a couple fresh towels. The towels themselves were thin and didn't dry well overnight so fresh ones were sorely needed to get at least one shower in with soap before we had to leave the next day. The TV didn't work at all, and the microwave was unplugged — though I was able to fix that myself. The hotel also doesn't offer complimentary coffee, which is standard at most hotels we've stayed at for half the price. The good: The staff was friendly, the bed was comfortable, the A/C worked well, and the balcony was a nice touch. The room was quiet. Bottom line: The website gives a very different impression than what you actually get. Between the unreliable shuttle, limited and unpredictable restaurant hours, missing amenities, thin towels, and no coffee, this was not the anniversary experience we hoped for. I'd recommend staying somewhere closer to downtown so you're not dependent on a shuttle and stuck with limited options. I think we need to redo our anniversary. It was a miss for sure.

沒有選擇，定了間擁有兩張Kingsize雙人大床房，難道這是應付什麼狀況的配置嗎？ 好吧，設施都不錯，標準希爾頓格式。屋外有個小陽台，有桌椅可以一邊觀海一邊喝杯啤酒。最絕的是出門就是海邊，很少運動的我，怎麼樣也不能辜負了這美景，早起沿着海邊小跑，看魚兒遊近岸邊覓食，看海鳥從天而降俯沖，看遠處軍艦靜棲港灣，看藍天白雲吻春風拂面，看釣魚佬不知疲倦地揮桿，激動地釣上小魚卻又開心地放生，衹為讓它長大點再回來。夜晚，可以信步走向道路右邊的盡頭，一家二樓平台的海鮮餐廳能讓你一邊品嚐美味，一邊在温暖的汽燈下眺望星辰大海。是機場賓館更是度假酒店。

I feel less dogs would be nice. As well as a microwave in the room would be helpful along with a coffee ☕️ pot, and iron to say the least. Other then that KIKI the manager is easy to talk to, she listens and provides excellent service. Thank you Kiki, & Zack Patrivua McIntosh

motel 6 是連鎖品牌， 在聖巴巴拉有三家，訂的時候要特別看下地址。 這家算是我訂錯的，開車跑到十公里之外的海邊才發現訂錯了。總體房間中規中矩，有些緊湊但是該有的設施都有，開車到海邊十幾分鍾，前台有免費的熱水和速溶咖啡，停車位挺充足一個房間一個車位，有游泳池。

Great place but no microwave so if you plan on staying a long time be ready to eat out.Gym is mid

Очень старое здание. Плохое освещение, довольно тёмный номер. Кровать была нормальной. В ванной комнате было довольно темно, и не было душа. Мне очень понравился кулер с горячей и холодной водой в спортзале, очень приветливая стойка регистрации и, конечно же, безопасная парковка на улице. Расположение отличное.

Cute and quaint stay. The hot tub and pool were still not functioning during our stay, which was a disappointment for the kids. Other nice amenities for this area were that there was cable tv in the room and Wi-Fi available which other hotels I’ve stayed at in this area did not offer. I did not realize this hotel was actually located across the street from the water so it’s not actually waterfront as I had anticipated mentally when I thought about where The Tides was located. It’s still a very nice location and very close by to The Tides, though. I would stay here again. 

My husband and I recently had our wedding at Bahia Resort, and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice. We visited many venues in San Diego, but Bahia immediately stood out for its warm hospitality. During our initial visit, we were greeted with water, coffee, and snacks—something none of the other venues offered. It was such a thoughtful gesture and made us feel genuinely welcome from the start. I especially appreciated the extra touches, like public toilet seats with covers, which are rare to find in the States but made me feel more comfortable. The staff at Bahia are exceptional—always friendly, patient, and ready to help with any request. The hotel itself is beautiful, with a private beach that adds a special touch to any event. One thing I loved about Bahia is how animal-friendly it is. It’s not just dog-friendly; you’ll see ducks wandering around the grounds and even rescued seals staying at the property. It’s such a unique and charming environment! Our hotel room was spacious and spotless, providing a comfortable retreat after a busy wedding day. If I had to mention areas for improvement, I wish the rooms had a kettle for making tea. Also, the guest laundry requires buying tokens and detergent from the gift shop, but there’s no signage in the laundry room explaining this process, which caused a bit of confusion. Overall, both we and our guests thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bahia Resort. The beautiful setting, thoughtful amenities, and outstanding service made our wedding truly memorable. I highly recommend Bahia Resort to anyone looking for a special venue or a relaxing getaway in San Diego!

地理位置不錯，靠近海邊，單酒店就類似於國內的快捷酒店，硬件一般，空調和排風扇都很響。停車比較方便，但要付費21美金一晚。另外奇葩的是車在酒店內部從大堂到客房竟然不能直通，需要停大堂check in結束後再開到大馬路繞到客房停車位。 性價比總體不高。早餐還是不錯的。
