There's a real resort feel to this Mission Bay hotel. On a 14-acre peninsula, the views are quite something, and you’re just steps from the the calm bay waters. Head to the white sandy beach and grab yourself a beach cabana or take a stroll through the lush tropical gardens. The pool is a great spot too and the huge hot tub is just the ticket on a cooler evening. Don't miss an evening cruise around the bay on the Bahia Belle paddle steamer — there’s drinks, live entertainment and views galore.

The Bahia Resort Hotel is such a beautiful hotel with lots of things to do. Very quiet and away from the madness San Diego can offer. I would like to thank Diante for his valuable customer service, he is very knowledgeable and I thank him for his professionalism.
Kid had the BEST time!!

We recently returned from another trip to the Bahia for our anniversary and once again it felt like coming home. Ben at the front desk welcomed us with a friendly face and was full of recommendations on things to do. He made us feel like family. As always, I saw Andre from Security on my early morning walks and totally enjoyed our early morning conversations and the company on my walks. Shout out to both of these employees along with the rest of the amazing staff, from housekeeping to the groundkeepers, they were all awesome! Thank you Bahia, Andre and Ben for another awesome trip!

An all around amazing long weekend. We were greeted by the very friendly and helpful Ben at the front desk who got us checked-in and even a ride to our room. Drinks by the pool, YES SIR! Jose was there, and we ended up making a new drink from what was available, so good we came back for more, two days in a row... On our escape, Georgia at the front desk got us connected with a ride to the Airport. The staff was GREAT!!! The food at the resort and at the nearby recommended beach-side restaurants were all worth the trip. Plenty of sea, sand and waves, made for several days of memorable casual walks. My wife and I don't say this about too many places, but this is one we plan on coming back to. Read less
Great long weekend getaway!

The resort was great! The cleaning staff did an excellent job in the rooms. And shout out to Ben and the other front desk guys, they definitely made the experience better! The only con I can come up with is cell phone service can be rough throughout the resort but they have WiFi for guests.
