Oceanfront luxury with fire pits, spa, acclaimed restaurant, and beach access
"A low-rise contemporary boutique resort perched on a rugged sea cliff with sweeping ocean views from rooms, restaurant and a pool deck with fire pits and lounge seating. Guests enjoy an infinity-edge pool, hot tub, sunset sound baths, Scandi-style rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows and direct beach access via an on-site stairwell, plus a soothing spa—though the property’s on-site activities are more limited than those at larger resorts." - Emily Hochberg Emily Hochberg Emily Hochberg is a writer and editor with over 15 years of experience specializing in travel, lifestyle, home, parenting, and reviews.

"Located in Encinitas, California, Alila Marea features a 'surf butler' to assist with board selection and surf conditions. The hotel also partners with a surf school for lessons and showcases ocean-related art by Aaron Chang."
"A Pacific Ocean–facing resort in Encinitas, California where World of Hyatt Globalist members can receive space-available upgrades — for example, being bumped from a standard king to an ocean-view suite prior to check-in." - Chris Dong
"Encinitas beaches are some of the best in the world, and this minimalist property makes the most of the world-class ocean views. It manages to feel inviting and elevated, but not ostentatious or sterile, and the Venn diagram of guests is that center slice where CEOs meet surfers. Guests may be wearing wetsuits by day, but at night it’s more Patek Philippe; with no kid’s pool or menus at any of the on-site eateries, Alila Marea caters to high-net-worth adults and couples more than Gen Z or Alpha. By utilizing a lot of natural materials like fiber rugs and reclaimed wood, no room is exactly the same—but the showstoppers are the ones with ocean views.This is the type of place to celebrate a milestone birthday or anniversary, leaving the kids at home and having that extra glass of wine while watching the sun set over the Pacific. It’s more laid-back than Laguna Beach, but just as luxurious." - Archana Ram, Beth Demmon
"This beachfront resort in the World of Hyatt portfolio has 130 guest rooms — and most of them feature Pacific Ocean views. The resort fee covers a range of properly appealing inclusions, such as transportation within a 3-mile radius, a daily yoga class, and rentals of e-bikes, surfboards, and wetsuits." - Travel + Leisure Editors
