This property is an oldie but a goodie. It's location is absolutely fantastic! The grounds are gorgeous. The pool and tennis courts were lovely. Our room was dated but clean. We traveled there off season so the full amenities were not available but it also less crowded.

I wish Expedia would have posted on their website that there were major renovations going on and it was noisy from 8 am on weekdays. Also all rooms are noisy since you can hear everybody in their rooms talking and walking around. Also you have to be out of your room by 10 am or they will not clean your room

So many amenities! My family packed our day with walks on the beach, golf, pickleball, tennis and corn hole. We didn’t make it into the pool, but it looked amazing as well. Would definitely stay here again.

We had a wonderful weekend at the La Jolla Beach and Tennis Club. The location is ideal, the service was wonderful, and we just loved everything about it but the check in. Note to Expedia, the club doesn’t guarantee the bedding arrangement, which is highly unusual. We booked a room with two queen beds, and they initially gave us a room that only had one bed. The club was fully booked that weekend and it was a struggle for them to figure something out for us, but eventually they did and we were given a two bedroom suite. Whew! My step-daughter and are close, but we were not prepared to share a bed. The weekend was almost a bust, but instead turned out perfect!

Standard in excellence!
As usual, the trip was epic! Thank you to the entire staff, beach services, reservations; Anna, Meghan, and Jessica! We asked for a Keurig coffee machine, which was not available. Monty went out of his way and purchased one for us. We definitely were not expecting that. We spend our summer vacations there and to us, the LBTC is home away from home. The bonfire by the beach and s'mores are the kids’ favorites. We will be applying for membership soon.

Spacious apartment with a magnificent oceanfront view. The beach is cleaned of seaweed daily making it pristine. The beach equipment that is set up by the beach staff is comfortable, beach towels are plenty, allowing for a relaxing beach holiday.

Great beach location! The best in San Diego. Beautiful resort location in La Jolla. I was promised a garden view room and received a parking lot view instead :(. Book directly with the hotel for better rooms since they cannot guarantee third party incorrect room descriptions nor their reservations. Splurge for an ocean front room, it’s worth it!

First time staying here but won’t be the last. Literally has everything you could want on premise and surrounding. If you don’t want to eat on site walk right up the street and you have so many great food options. I will not be staying anywhere else when visiting San Diego. This place is older but awesome. Their first level Ocean front room was amazing. We stayed in 110 which was literally max 5 steps to the sand. We would open our windows and listen to the waves crashing. I can not say enough great things about this place. If your reading this and trying to decide if you should stay here or any other places in close proximity do yourself a favor and get an ocean front room here it will not disappoint. So many amenities that are worth it.

No insulation and hotel under Construction
We arrived in the room only to see an old and dated room with low ceilings and very little light! Came back from dinner so tired and ready for bed but we were on the bottom floor and it seems this hotel does not have insulation and no carpets so we heard every step and lots of jumps of those above us so we called the front desk several times and a few hours later at 11p the noise stopped - ugh. Problem is at 6am the noise started it again - this time it was construction workers talking and walking back and forth past our room. We were never told the hotel was under construction nor was any accommodations made to ensure that we weren’t affected. Needless to say we left early - not ok!!!

The La Jolla Beach and Tennis Club is a dream. Everyone is incredibly welcoming and helpful. The guests are family friendly. We watched dolphin and seals playing right out our window. If La Jolla is the jewel, this is the gem.

nice grounds, tennis facilities. pool -- nice in idea, but there was a used diaper on the edge of the kiddie pool, and a suspicious mark at the kiddie pool floor, trash scattered around (packaging from googles and such), so we stayed away. construction on site, our rooms were very outdated, with musty smell, and very poor noise isolation. booked 1 king room and 1 room with two double beds, but upon arrival we got 2 rooms with 2 double beds each, which did not work well for our party of 5. we did not need the kitchenette in our rooms, but would rather have a bigger dining table. overall, great place to come to as a tennis club, will never stay there again as a hotel.
