At The Wayfarer San Diego, guests get to enjoy it all — spectacular ocean views, a year-round heated beachfront pool (the only hotel beachfront pool in Mission Beach!), on-site surf lessons, an arcade room, a snack bar, free Wi-Fi and easy access to walking, biking and rollerblading on the boardwalk. Attractions such as the Gaslamp Quarter and Balboa Park offer more of San Diego's charms about 10 miles away.
You can sit on a private balcony and sip wine as the sun sinks beneath the horizon. Later, you might fall asleep listening to the surf. In the morning, try your hand at one of the retro arcade games in the lobby before you walk along the beach. Explore activities such as surfing, tennis and bicycling. Pacific Beach Park and the Mission Beach Boardwalk are just a one-minute walk from the hotel. The boardwalk stretches for 3.2 miles and is great for rollerblading, walking, jogging and biking. A bit farther is Crystal Pier, about an eight-minute walk. For a longer walk, head the 28 minutes to Belmont Park and experience the roller coasters and shops.
Discover PB!
PB or Pacific Beach is the perfect spot for you. Enjoy a short walk to the Crystal Pier, or spend the afternoon body surfing or learning to longboard from world renowned pros.
If you love the waves, there are plenty of options regardless of your skill level. Sign up for group surf lessons, attend a surfing camp or conquer the ocean on your own. Take your swimming, body boarding or surfing to a new level. La Jolla is about four miles north of Pacific Beach, and the village offers kayaking, snorkeling, stand-up paddleboarding and more surfing. If you prefer casual enjoyment of the beach, the hotel's oceanfront pool and spa are open year-round.
Restaurants and bars serve tasty cuisine within walking or Ubering distance of the hotel. Enjoy seafood caught straight from the Pacific Ocean, try New York-style pizza or sample some of the best tacos in town. In addition, the hotel offers the Grab-N-Go snack bar in the lobby. Guests can purchase items such as chips, energy bars and a variety of drinks, including beer and wine. Poolside Grab-N-Go options are available from May to September, but many guests like to relax and enjoy their food in the outdoor picnic area. There's also a 24-hour business center with two Mac computers and a printer.
