Beautiful room with amazing views. A home away from home experience. Everything you could need, all within the property. The Monday evening farmers market was an perfect way to have dinner and get some yummy Hawaiian scented salts for our last night. Will return.

Lots of amenities: 6 pools, kid-friendly activities, 2 golf courses, an onsite restaurant with a 3-hour happy hour, snack shops, a spa, spacious villas with full kitchens, balconies, living rooms, bedrooms and double sink baths with dual head showers. A 45 minute drive to downtown San Diego, but a good location for relaxing or exploring San Diego County... Temecula wine county, Safari Park, Legoland.

I love the water area for the kids. I loved how well light the area was. I was not expecting the prices of the convenience store and pizza hut. I think it is better to eat at the restaurant versus paying those prices.
