Excellent weekend stay in the ocean view king suite!
A new hotel across from the beach and adjacent to an equally beautiful sister hotel, Sea Bird.
Check in was a breeze and the lobby felt luxurious, yet casual and chic. Our room was awesome! Probably one of the best hotel room floor plans I've stayed in; with a great entry, plenty of storage, a great couch/ sitting area, comfy chaise nook by the window and wide open bathroom with great shower and free standing soaking tub. Bed was very comfortable with the "8 pod" regulated temperature system that cools or heats the bed to your liking. The ocean view room was in a wing that faced the inner courtyard but had an angled view of the ocean. Ice machines and alkaline water stations on each floor was a plus. Overall, the room was the best part of our stay!
Dog friendly for a (steep) fee. Nonetheless, we enjoyed having the pup with us and she defintely lived her best life in the room with us.
The pool was on the rooftop with a great view. If you want a lounge chair with the pristine view on weekends, make sure you get there early. Pool was very minimalistic, limited lounge chairs and a few cabanas. Decent music playing in the background as you chill for a pool day.
A couple of restaurants in the lobby, check out my review of Valle which was a great experience. Walking distance to bars/ cafes/ restaurants in Oceanside and you also have access to amenities at its sister hotel right across the street, Sea Bird. (Sunny's spa is at the Sea Bird, check my review on that too!)
So why not 5 stars, you ask?! Well, we've stayed at a few hotels at this price point ($$$$) and Mission Point just missed a few finer details; Sun screen at the pool, more tailored service, amenities, and a few things missing from the room we had to request just to name a few points. Nonetheless, we enjoyed our stay!
Tip: Valet parking is also pay-per- night and was fairly pricey ($44). There's a city lot one block down that you can pay for multiple overnights.
