    Del Mar Motel on the Beach Del Mar

    A short guide to Del Mar

    Members of old Hollywood once jockeyed for seclusion in Del Mar. Now, real jockeys are the main attraction at this former Tinseltown getaway. Every summer, the Del Mar Racetrack comes to life with horse races. The racing season begins with the end of the San Diego County Fair in July. Del Mar is part of the North Country, the suburban area considered to be the outer edge of metropolitan San Diego.

    The Motel is in a fantastic location right on the beach with a short walk to downtown Del Mar. The price you pay is definitely for the location and not the quality of the room. The carpet was dirty, the plumbing was rusty, the air conditioning was underpowered and noisy, the shower goes from too hot to too cold in 10 second intervals, the decor is from […] the 1980s, etc. With that in mind, the room was large and the bed was comfortable. We could overlook the shortcomings as this is a motel that is not trying to be anything greater than a motel on the beach. Read more

    Loved the location right on the beach. The patio overlooking the beach was great. Room was very clean. It was nothing fancy, but adequate. You are there for the beach so you don't spend much time in the room. It was close to lots of restaurants . The rooms have small refrigerators and microwaves which is not listed in the add. The staff was very helpful. […] We will return. Read more

    As all of the reviews say, this hotel is not so nice on the inside. The carpet was stained, the temperature of the shower changes whenever someone flushes a toilet anywhere in the hotel, and the mattress is not that comfortable. However, the hotel is still a pretty great place to stay, as long as you aren't looking for luxury. The location on the beach […] is amazing, and downtown del mar is a great place to hang out. Also, the staff are quite friendly and helpful, and the grilling area is a lot of fun to use. Read more

    We loved this hotel! Not a fancy resort, but more "old school beach town" place. Very clean and the proximity to the beach can't be beat. Having the Poseidon restaurant next door is a huge plus - excellent meals! We'll be back.

    The overall appearance of the motel wasn't the best but we were there for one reason, location. The location was key and made the experience special.

    We were as close as you could get to the beautiful Del Mar beach. The motel was not fancy but it was comfortable, and we especially appreciated the free parking because parking in Del Mar appears to be both expensive and difficult to find. If you walk south on the beach for a few minutes there are two nice parks to visit as well.

    Wasn't sure that this was the right place to go, but it more than satisfied. 20 second walk out of our room and we were on the beach, which was the main reason for going. Bed was comfortable, room was clean, bathroom had modern updated fixtures, was quiet enough to be restful, staff was attentive and courteous, but not intrusive. The internet was a […] bit slow, but not a problem. This is a motel, not a hotel, so don't expect the moon. If you want a comfy place to call home for a weekend on the beach, without paying a lot, this is the place Read more

    You can't ask for a better location, especially for the money. It sits right on the beach, and there's two great restaurants and a park next door. The walk to all the shops in Del Mar is only about 5 minutes.

    The Del Mar Inn is not the most glamorous beach resort. In fact, it is not a resort at all. It is a motel. BUT IT IS ON THE BEACH, and the rates, especially fall and winter, are very fair. There are lounge chairs protected from the wind from which to view the surf and surfers while enjoying a glass of wine. There are barbecues (bring your own bricquets […] and lighter) on the side with ample tables. I did steak, bacon wrapped scallops, and grilled portobello mushrooms with a great zinfandel for less than 1/3 it would have cost me in a local restaurant. Lastly, the staff was very accommodating. Even though I had booked through Hotels.com, I was given an upgrade for no additional cost to get closer to the beach because it was not a busy weekend. They may never do that for me again, but it does not matter, they did if for me once, with a smile, and that earns my loyalty. I will be back this winter because my wife an I like the beach just as much in the winter as in the summer and the rates are phenomenal. Read more

    I was looking for an inexpensive place on the beach to relax after a week of Disney adventures and this was perfect. The motel is older and not a plush place, but it was clean. The beach was beautiful, the staff friendly, and although the air conditioner was noisy, it did cool down the room.

    I fully realized when making my reservation that I was running the risk of getting a cheap beach motel. And that is what I found. They do not have enough parking for the size of their motel, so I drove around the block 5 or 6 times only to double park in the lot to run into the office to see what solution they could offer. I was greeted to the hostess […] rushing out of and locking the office at 3PM to go find someone. I finally convinced her to give me the pass I needed to pass in the parking lot for the restaurant next door, but had to return later to get all checked in. Room was spacious but out dated. Shower left a lot to be desired w stains, cracked tiles, and caulking coming out of the corners. Watch w hot showers, when water pressure suddenly drops, get out of the way of the scoulding hot water coming your way. Noise from surrounding areas was moderate- not the worst Ive experienced, but it would be nice if it were a bit quieter. Motel does dump right out onto beach, allowing for earlier morning, late night walks on the beach w little effort. Life guard station is literally next door, nice for families taking a trip to the beach. Also, 2 restaurants in immediate area and short walk to beautiful Del Mar strip. All and all a good trip but this place did little to contribute to the positive. Read more

    This is a nice family property right on the beach. It's a little busy, but still quiet at night. The staff is lovely, but they were put in the bad situation of trying to explain why the single ice machine couldn't be fixed in a timely fashion. A beach motel full of families w/ no icemaker is a problem. Mgt should get with it.

    Great place for a vacation, but maybe not for business. You can't beat this location if you want to have your morning cup of coffee right on the beach. What the place lacks in luxury it makes up for in charm; walks on the beach before bed and perfect waves for splashing in the surf. Very kid-friendly, perhaps too much so if you are wanting peace and […] quiet there were lots of families with kids. There's a pretty good restaurant/sports bar rext to the motel, and a very fine seafood restaurant "Jakes" one door down. Both have fabulous decks right on the beach. There are lots of great restaurants and cute shops within walking distance. There are BBQs on the motel property with plenty of room for a family to cook and eat. No kitchen facilities besides a mini fridge in the room. The Lifeguard station is right next to the motel, so if you have teenage daughters you might get extra points for the view. Read more

    My husband and I come here every year. We love it and dislike it all the same. The reason we love it... location. Litterally right on the beach. Within walking distance to everything in Del Mar. the rooms are big and have a mini refrigerator and places to BBQ which we do to save money. We dislike the bed, it is super uncomfortable. We bring our own […] mattress pad to make it more comfy. The plumbing is super out dated and when you run the shower it is like a freight train. You have to yell above it to talk to someone in the bathroom with you. We put up with the other stuff because the staff is so nice and the location is something we can't pass up. If you are looking for luxury don't stay here but if you are looking for right on the beach and to make your own food and can put up with the irritating little things this is definately the place for you!!

    Gave me a room close to beach but next to construction site literally. They dont treat hotel.com customers than anyone coming off street to rent room. They other rooms available but said they fully booked. Male rec. is rude. Too expensive not enough or any amenities. not come back unless half price.

    We stayed with our children and Grandchildren..has a great beach area right out back and local shopping and places to eat are all within walking distance. I might include this is not a neighborhood with cheap food either..no mcdonalds, wendys etc and gas stations arent that close either but we really enjoyed our stay and the staff was super nice! Would […] stay again if in the area! Read more
