Best Spas in La Presa

"This 1800s former horse ranch on a rolling 10-acre estate still honors San Diego’s rancho roots—albeit with far more creature comforts. Its Spanish Mission-style buildings surround various courtyards, with bright and airy guest rooms featuring faux Mexican antiques and outdoor fireplaces surrounded by lemon trees and rosemary and sage. The heated saltwater pool is where you’ll find guests curled up on daybeds with a book or cooling off from the heat, while the spa is the place to go for sea stone massages and aloe wraps."

"This Spanish-style luxury resort sits close to the ocean in La Jolla, across from the San Diego UC campus. The accommodations are in low-rise buildings, and some have private balconies and patios. All are beautifully designed with luxurious finishes and amenities."

"The best family-friendly resort in San Diego, sprawling Paradise Point sits on a small island in Mission Bay, wrapped in white sand beaches. The property features 5 heated, outdoor swimming pools (1 for adults only), a private marina with watersports (paddleboards, kayaks, jet skis, sailboats, and more), and plenty of kid-friendly amenities, including firepits for s’mores, complimentary lawn games, a kids’ club, and much more. Spacious rooms, suites, and bungalows sleep families of up to 5, all with private patios or balconies, most with views of the garden, lagoon, or bay."

"Only two miles from SeaWorld, this San Diego resort is on its own 44-acre island in Mission Bay with a mile of wide, flat beach. The beach is on the bay, so the waves are calm, and it's great for families. The property isn't new, but the rooms and suites are regularly updated, and all have patios."

"Standing on a lush, private island in Mission Bay, this beautiful resort features a full-service spa and tropical gardens. SeaWorld San Diego is just 5 minutes drive away. A spacious patio, hardwood floors and a marble bathroom are found in each exotic room of Paradise Point Resort & Spa."

"Enjoy a classic Italian dinner at our onsite restaurant, Manhattan of La Jolla that offers a wide-ranging menu of pastas, steaks, and seafood in a romantic setting. Savor a delicious Caesar salad made tableside, homemade eggplant parmigiana, or just relax with a glass of fine wine. Don't feel like eating out?"
