san diego hotel-feb 2007
 

Hi, we have an 11 year old and we have booked the del coronado and paradise point. you get much more for your money at the point but i heard the hotel is dumpy. we're looking for a nice place to stay with tennis if possible. any suggestions? i also looked into la costa but it seems to be a 45 minute drive which i think would be a drag if we want to sight see in san diego. thanks!!!

HI..
Love the Hotel Del and Paradise Point has been going through alot of renovations which was so needed. I don't know what time of the year you are going with your 11 year old but if you are a tennis lover, La Jolla Beach and Tennis has fab courts and just hosted the Davis Cup early this year..the rooms are not 5 star but the hotel is oceanfront and is perfect for swimming and outdoor activities..they also own the Sea Lodge which is right next door..La Jolla Shores is a lovely area. Keep us posted as to what you choose and we all will be happy to help!

thanks for the tip! the tennis is for the kid and we're going in feb. during winter break.

I would stay at the Hotel Del..
Everyone will have a wonderful time and it is such a lovely town.. The Brigantine Restaurant is across the street and has an excellent happy hour that all can go to and it has the best fish tacos for $2.75 and other yummy goodies..
Best to you!

Another vote for the Del. We have stayed there quite a bit, with and without our kids, and really enjoy it. The Sunday Brunch is very nice, if that interests you.
