FAIRMONT GRAND DEL MAR

FAIRMONT GRAND DEL MAR
5300 GRAND DEL MAR COURT
SAN DIEGO, CA  92130
858-314-2000

There are two hotels where I literally check in and don't want to leave.  One is the Peninsula Manila and the other is the Fairmont Grand Del Mar in San Diego.  Both of these hotels calm me and give me a feeling of peace and serenity.  Set within Los Penasquitos Canyon Preserve the Grand Del Mar is about 25-30 minutes from San Diego airport but the feeling is worlds apart.  Once you enter this Mediterranean inspired resort you are transformed into a world of beauty and luxury.  Service is impeccable and the food and drinks are top notch.  I always end my day in the bar just off the lobby and enjoy a drink and maybe a snack.  On this visit we enjoyed a great Cheese and Meat Platter, Margarita Pizza and Sliders while enjoying a glass of wine or beer and listening to great music.  The live music here on weekends is fantastic.  One night a gentlemen played the piano and wowed us with Elton John, James Taylor, Fleetwood Mac and other favorites from the 70's, 80's and 90's.  Truly enjoyable on every level.  I also love having breakfast on the Amaya Terrace.  This indoor/outdoor restaurant has an incredible crew that provide top notch service with big smiles.  One morning I enjoyed a Lobster Benedict which was amazing and on another day the Huevos Rancheros which was just ok.  The Fairmont Grand Del Mar is "heaven" to me and I hope you can stay here.
