My Husband, Son and myself stayed at the Blue Sea Lodge for our second year in a row at the end of May and again, it has met and exceeded every expectation we have!! We were in room 106 which was beyond close to the beach as far as view was concerned and the room itself was roomy and super-clean!... More

My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary. Overall, we really enjoyed it. The good things - location is awesome. We walked the whole beachfront walk and decided we prefer the south side of the pier and the hotel is just in a perfect place. Close to restaurants, stores, etc. the hotel is older, but well kept. The rooms... More

Over spring break I went with my family to San Diego. The customer service was horrible and my daughter ended up having to sleep on the floor because I called and reserved a roll away bed but when we got there they said you can't reserve roll away beds. There were parties every night that were loud and if you... More

We had a 1st floor room with balcony facing the ocean- rm 112. I was hesitant at first to accept this room because we had booked a 2nd floor room, thinking it wouldn't be as noisy along the boardwalk. But it was great. The boardwalk was NOT noisy at all. The choice of restaurants, the clean beach and pool, the... More

Thank you for taking the time to share your recent experience. I am delighted to hear that the first floor room on the board walk worked out for you and you were able to “fall asleep to the waves”. I do, however, want to apologize for the A/C issue you had, which you would be glad to know has been... More

Only stayed one night because the bed felt like an inexpensive interspring mattress, past its prime. No breakfast, $30/night parking, and more expensive than a nice place three small blocks away. Ocean views are great, staff was nice rooms are clean, great restaurants very close.

We stayed here with our 18-month-old and loved it. The location was prime because it's right on the beach, so it wasn't a big deal to spend an hour at the beach and then need to go back to the room for nap/snack/mealtime. We could go right back later without worrying about parking or it being a big ordeal. The... More

I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the hotel and the service - will definitely stay here again! If you're looking for The Four Seasons, this isn't for you. If you want a great value on the beach, with a little more to offer than your average beach motel, you'll love this place. I recently got married and was... More

My stay was for Business Purposes and I have to say I would come back and stay for pleasure. Its really close to alot of nice restaurants, the beach walk, and the ocean view is excellent. Leave your window open and you could hear the ocean, such a relaxing night sleep. The hotel serves its purpose, everything surrounding the hotel... More

Staff was friendly, quick service. The price combined with the view was unbelievable! Seemed slightly dated however the view and proximity to the ocean and path and lots of places to eat more than compensated for that. Everything was clean, bed comfortable. This was a business trip but I was already making plans to try to bring my family out... More

If I could, I would give this hotel 3 1/2 stars. It definitely had it's good points and its bad points. The good: right on the beach - you can't beat how close it is. Heated pool. Rooms that look right out on the pool and the ocean (you must request these though). Walking distance to many cool restaurants. Close... More
