Unwind in style with exclusive amenities, top-notch culinary offerings, and beach access at Encinitas’ premier resort.
We recently came across Alila Marea Beach Resort when looking for a quick getaway from central San Diego. Located atop an impressive bluff tracing the Pacific Ocean, the elegant getaway offered a unique experience we couldn’t turn down. The day pass, purchased through ResortPass, was very appealing because we could enjoy all that this resort has to offer without spending the night.
What’s Included With The Alila Marea Day Pass?
Pool Access
This is one of the first things that attracted us to the Alila Marea Beach Resort: its gorgeous outdoor pool. As soon as we got there, we jumped into the alluring water with greenery and ocean ⎯ nature sounds all around. The pool was the ideal place for us to relax and sunbathe, and we enjoyed spending warm afternoons relaxing in our preferred climate.
Hot Tub
After a refreshing swim, we headed over to the hot tub that had amazing ocean views. Soaking in the warm water, staring out at the horizon was a memory we will carry with us for a while now. It melted away any stress and made us feel connected to our stunning surroundings — the very definition of a luxurious getaway.
Poolside Loungers
We also made use of the poolside loungers, a cozy place to soak up the beautiful SoCal sun. Relaxing with our favorite drinks, smiling and talking, comfortable in the calm atmosphere of the resort. It was the perfect opportunity to unwind and have a rest while taking in the amazing coastal scenery.
The Pocket
One of our favorite places at the resort was The Pocket, the cute poolside bar. With its surf-inspired decor and breathtaking ocean views, it was the perfect spot for a bite to eat and craft cocktails. We sampled delicious bites while enjoying the chilled-out vibe and the nearby crashing waves. Great food, refreshing drinks, and beautiful scenery made this a must stop on our daycation.
