Hotels near San Jose's Estuary and Bird Sanctuary

"We stayed for one week, and honestly, I would NOT recommend this place to anyone considering it. I read the reviews before arriving and thought they might be exaggerated, but unfortunately they were not. The staff service was poor, there was mold in the bathroom, and we were even given the wrong room at first. The food was so bad that I actually got sick and couldn’t eat for two days. Making restaurant reservations on your own is almost impossible because the front desk is not helpful at all. Guests wake up as early as 4 a.m. to place towels and personal belongings on the pool chairs to reserve them, so good luck finding one later in the day. There is also only one pool bar with a single bartender. We ended up eating out for almost every meal. For us, this was a one-time experience—never again."

"We had a wonderful time while my husband and I were there, but I do have to say, we were very surprised to hear upon check in that we needed to pay a $70/day “Resort fee” on top of our already paid stay, which wasn’t disclosed (or if it was, it was in the smallest of fonts!). There was nothing we could do at the time but agree. Later at the pool, when we asked for our check, we noticed that the service was included, which is perfectly fine, however, the waiter said that that was “only” the service, but not his tip; it was very awkward, and we were sure “service included” means his tip, and on top of the “resort fee”? It seemed like we were politely being taken advantage of left and right. Beautiful resort, amazing rooms, top-notch decor and comfort, but to not even get a couple of bottles of water in the room (we asked for some and they told us to go down to the store or order room service)… not worth the price."

"Partial view. Pools were clean and wonderful. Staff were outstanding! Perfect holiday destination."

"Amazingly friendly, well trained, very helpful staff. Staff that dealt with visitors could speak English well enough to be helpful. Hotel was clean, nicely decorated - was showing its age in places but that happens any place. Did not take away from overall appearance. For Altitude Club members, reservations were easy to get, food at their restaurants was wonderful, very tasty (except beef - basically tough and chewy), presented beautifully, good menu choices (could also go to buffets - had many choices, food was ok but seemed to be always busy). For Altitude Club members, private pool and bar were not crowded, no kids, good variety of better alcohol (shortage of pool chairs, go at 6am to get shade!!) Overall, enjoyed our stay - would recommend to others - we are not likely to go back but that is because we like to try new places, in new area, for new experiences. "

"Room and view were fabulous"

"This place was so much fun! The only thing that was really hard was the luggage situation. They do not have elevators, there are a lot of stairs. They help you get the luggage to your room but had a terrible time getting someone to help me the day we checked out! We had 2 large luggages and as I was asking from my room I asked to different employees if they could help me and both said no I need to go to the front desk (up a bunch of stairs) as they were just standing there talking! A minor inconvenience for a beautiful beach and comfortable rooms. "

"No issues with the property and staff. My main issue is guests claiming beds early in the morning and not using them till 10 or 11. This should not be allowed to happen. Everyday the best beds were taken...usually just a hat placed on the bed. Not good."

"Clean room at a good price on the water and walkable to other restaurants and activities. Ocean view was great in the evenings."

"There is a construction going on right now if you’ve won budget friendly stay you can choose this location"
