Hotels Near Pangaea Outpost in San Diego

My wife and I, along with my oldest daughter and her husband stayed at Ocean Park last week. We had rooms next to each other on the 3rd floor with ocean views (which I recommend). Naturally we're in the midst of covid restrictions and all that implies. Having said that... The rooms were great! A lot of thought has gone into even small details of the room design. One of those small details is the light switch on each side of the bed is easy to reach and you don't have to go searching for an outlet for your phone charger. As a matter of fact, the outlets have 2 USB ports. There was a refrigerator in our room. There was also a pull-out couch. The shower pressure wasn't going to penetrate your skin, but was adequate. Compliments of covid, you have to go down to the desk to order new towels to be delivered to your room. That isn't exclusive to this hotel -- that's standard operating procedure these days. The 'continental' breakfast consisted of a sealed paper bag with an apple, orange, a bottle of water and something else. The desk has them and you have to ask for it. They also have discounts for military and old farts like myself. Everyone, from the manager to the other desk personnel were very friendly. There is a 7-11 and other stores easily within walking distance from the hotel. The parking will cost you $20.00 per day. It's in an underground parking garage and you can load your luggage and take it up the elevator. The view of the ocean and the sound of the ocean when you leave your patio door open is outstanding. Unfortunately the sound of the local homeless population is something we contended with. Beginning early in the morning they are loud (and sometimes profane). They homestead along the wall below. They can be entertaining at times however. One guy we referred to as, 'Captain Jack Sparrow' had a pirate hat, a red cape and black boots like you would wear to a costume party. When we mentioned it to hotel management they said to be sure to contact them when that happens and they will call the police to deal with it. Might want to keep that in mind. Most of the local 'entertainment' are pretty non-intrusive. They pretty much keep to themselves and don't do cat calls at your wife and daughters. They didn't do any cat calls or whistle at me either. I may not have been there type. Seriously, aside from the early morning noise (I can only assume they are all mostly deaf and that's why they have to yell when they talk), they weren't much of a factor. There are beachside shops all along the walkway to shop at. Fun to shop at. The bottom line is, the next time we visit San Diego you can bet we'll be staying at Ocean Park Inn if available. If not for the noisy early morning chatter I would have given them a 5 rating. I will enclose some photos. Keep in mind the room was much neater before we started to 'live' in it. It's much nicer than the photos of the room would suggest.

My wife and I had our first trip without children in over 20 years, and had a wonderful time at the Pacific Terrace Hotel. We stayed in one of the sunset suites, specifically the St. Croix suite, and it was amazing. The room was very clean and even more spacious than the pictures show. Our terrace was right over the pool with a direct view out to the ocean. We saw some amazing sunsets from our terrace (see photos). The whirlpool tub was huge, and felt good to soak in after a long day of site seeing. The staff was beyond friendly, providing tips and recommendations on things to do and how to get around the city / public transportation, as well as places to eat. The grounds were beautiful. The pool area had numerous tables and chairs, lounge chairs and cabanas. The glass surround of the pool area allowed from great views of the ocean beyond the boardwalk. We spent a couple afternoons enjoying a drink by the pool. The area neighborhood had so much to do, from little shops, restaurants and bars all along the boardwalk. We never felt unsafe or concerned at any point. I was going out to jog most morning's early (5am) along the boardwalk and never felt unsafe. BTW it is 6 miles round trip from the hotel to the end of the boardwalk at the Mission Bay channel. All in all we had a terrific experience and plan on staying here again in the future.

Adjacent to the sea, it is very easy to get out of the sea. There is a swimming pool by the sea, you can watch the sea and swim!

Service is very good, the room is very clean, the front desk is very warm, there is a request, stay at this hotel next time

We loved the location. Family of four with 2 kids ages 9 & 10 loved the different pools and husband and I enjoyed the fire pits by the pool. The rooms were modern and up to date. The beds were not comfortable and the lack of pillows made it hard to sleep for someone who is used to minimum of 2 pillows per person. The views were amazing and a lot of exploring to do around the resort.

The hotel room is very old. The location and environment are very good. However, after the departure, the authorization deposit was deducted for more than 28 US dollars. No one mentioned it, including Ctrip and the hotel front desk. I don't know why the previous comments didn't mention Everyone should pay attention to when considering hotels.

SD has lived in this house for 19 years. The location is good to go out on the 5th highway. There is an In-N-Out nearby and it is two steps away. It is also close to the Garnet Ave business district. The hotel's indoor parking space is relatively limited, and there is no more when you go back late at night. This is a pet friendly hotel, although clean in place but the corridor can still smell some, mindful or allergic people should pay attention.

Great place with the family. The 3 pools with water slides and the hot tub are a great combo. Beautiful sunsets on the ocean rooms. Room service would be a nice touch. Little far for coffee in the morning and limited choices for dining with one under renovation.

I stayed for two nights and I was out every day. I did n’t enjoy the resort service, but I still paid the resort fee. When I drove by car, I parked in a few free parking spaces at the door. A lot. The outdoor pool is beautiful, but closed early

We loved this hotel. Our room was very comfortable and very quiet. The staff was helpful and it was easy to have them valet our car. We got it promptly each time we called for it. The hotel's location is perfect: we walked all over the area where there are many shops & restaurants. Also close to the beach and the terrific Museum of Contemporary Art which is huge and a gem. We would happily stay there again.
