D P TripAdvisor review

We spent about 10 days at Fairmont Grand Del Mar in late January/early February with our family, and it was truly one of the best vacations we have ever had. The resort and grounds are exceptionally maintained, the rooms were pristine, and we felt pampered from the moment we arrived. What stood out most was the staff. The level of attention to our family was unbelievable. Everything we asked for was handled immediately and with genuine care. Our daughter was celebrating her 7th birthday, and they truly made it special for her in ways we won’t forget. A special thank you to Dylan and Neil at the front desk and Jose Sanchez from room service. Also, the family pool staff was consistently attentive and provided wonderful service. We can’t wait to return in the spring. Thank you for an incredible stay! D + T + E  😊

The stay was overall very nice. The level of hospitality was great. I did have a hiccup upon checking in. The card I used to book the room online wasn't saved. It was a work card that I didn't have a physical copy of so when I checked in I had to put my personal card down instead. I was able to sort it out when my boss checked in and had a physical card, however upon checkout, my personal card was still charged for the total. I was able to get it refunded, which took a few days. The only thing that I wish was different is the diet coke. Apparently the whole resort switched to glass bottle diet coke, which tastes horrible. It tastes like carbonated water. I tried ordering room service, ordering one from the bar and also Amaya. All I wanted was a diet coke, but they tasted terrible. Please switch back.

Dear Lauren H., Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent stay at Fairmont Grand Del Mar. We appreciate your positive comments about our hospitality and are pleased to hear that your overall experience was enjoyable. I apologize for the inconvenience you encountered during check-in regarding your payment method. While we strive to ensure a seamless arrival process, I understand that such situations can be frustrating. I appreciate your patience in resolving the matter with your boss's card and am glad to know that the refund was eventually processed. Regarding your feedback on the Diet Coke served at the resort, we value guest preferences and take your comments seriously. Your insights will be shared with our beverage team for consideration. Thank you again for your valuable feedback, and we hope to welcome you back for another comfortable stay in the future. Best regards, Fairmont Grand Del Mar
