Such a wonderful experience for our family! We had such a fun time at all the different pools and recreation centers. The villa had a stackable washer/dryer, dishes, cooking utensils, pots, pans and other useful kitchen appliances. It really felt like a home away from home. The staff were all so friendly and helpful. Would love to visit again!

We stayed here because it was central to the weekend wedding festivities for our daughters wedding. From the moment we checked in, I knew this resort was going to be amazing. From the concierge, Leo, to the firepits to the pools to the gym. I could go on and on but all you need to know is this resort is one of the biggest and best I have stayed at.

Love the scenery the rooms were clean love the amenities fireplace pool game room. the downside was that the walls are super thin on our last night we had neighbors next to us they were banging loud party so much noise from 1am until 4am at least that’s when we just went to sleep wanted to complain but too tired to look for the # they should post there # in the room. Other then Thin walls we enjoyed our stay but glad it was the last night so your getaway could be ruined depending on your neighbor

It’s practically turn key everything we needed plus more was in the condo. Full kitchen, bath, washer/dryer, 2tv’s , couch bed, dining area and patio with 2 large rocking chairs. Very quiet, beautiful hilly grounds. Take your walking shoes or be prepared to drive around the grounds depending on where your room is located. The canyon grill was good food and drink, couple snack shops, not much to do but pools and relaxing but close to San Diego for entertainment if that’s what your looking for

Great place for kids and family a lot of activities to do San Diego is only 44 away with great beaches and museums but honestly, you do not need to leave the resort. There’s plenty activities to do on the site when you get there there’s a map. There’s also a plan of activities they do throughout the week. There’s a winery next-door. I always have a great selection of wines. I can’t put everything into this one paragraph but I will give this place a 10 out of 10.
