My recent stay at Fairmont Grand Del Mar was a mixed bag. The hotel boasts stunning architecture and meticulous grounds, offering a lovely sanctuary for guests. The staff was warm and attentive, making me feel truly valued during my visit. However, the service at certain areas, like the pool, was frustratingly slow, and it detracted from my overall experience. Dining was another letdown, with mediocre room service that didn't match the hotel's luxurious theme. Overall, it's a great place that has room for improvement in service consistency and dining quality.

My stay at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar was absolutely fantastic! The resort exudes luxury with its stunning architecture and beautiful grounds. The staff were warm and welcoming, making every interaction a pleasure. The dining options were exceptional, particularly the breakfast at Amaya restaurant. However, the spa prices felt a bit steep, and I wish there were more affordable options for those treatments. Overall, I found it to be a wonderful experience with just a few minor drawbacks.

Our stay at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar was exceptional, with stunning grounds and luxurious facilities making for a memorable experience. The rooms were spacious and beautifully appointed, though a bit brighter lighting in the bathroom would have been appreciated. The service was outstanding, as the attentive staff went above and beyond to enhance our stay. However, some of the dining experiences were hit or miss, with one evening's food being just okay. Overall, it's a fantastic retreat but consider dining options carefully.
