Lodging Description: From the very first day the Sea Lodge opened on the shores of La Jolla, it was recognized as someplace special. A retreat by the seashore. One of the only hotels situated directly on the beach in the entire county of San Diego. But guests at the Sea Lodge don't think of us as a hotel; they simply consider us home. And that's no surprise since we've always been a family-owned, family-oriented refuge. A place for people to toss their cares into the Pacific breeze, to escape the everyday.
