Hacienda Del Sol

What a great little getaway! Only a 2-3 hour drive from LA/OC/SD, just enough to feel like a fun scenic road trip with a couple cool bars/restaurants/roadside attractions to check out along the way.
I stayed in one of the smaller rooms this time, but definitely plan on getting one of the casitas for my next stay. The pool was popular during our stay as well as the communal BBQ/picnic area that we enjoyed using as well. And once we wanted a change of scenery, the local bars/restaurants were walkable and super fun (highly recommend Carlee’s)! There’s also some pretty good thrifting in the area, as well. Can’t wait to get back to Hacienda del Sol for my next desert fix! 🌵☀️

This place is sick. Super cool skatepark nearby (probably walkable, but we drove). Also, plenty of good food options within walking distance including diner/pizza style bar and restaurant and a good Mexican food place. Rooms have been updated and are very well designed (both the rooms and casitas). Pool is nice and spacious, and there are tons of hiking, off roading, and other activities within a short distance away from the place. Would recommend to friends. Would stay again.

I stayed here with several friends a couple of weeks ago. I loved the views from the motel property. The sunset over the mountainy areas was beautiful while we were playing shuffleboard and the stars are stunning. You can see sooooo many! The new owners have spent a bunch of money improving the property and I love the 1950's decor in the rooms. The AC kept the room cold which was nice to come back to after hiking through the canyons, which are also beautiful. The king size bed in the Casita that I stayed in was very comfortable. I grabbed breakfast across the street each morning at a local diner that had decent prices and great food. I recommend getting a chocolate shake with your breakfast, haha! Seriously, it was delish. And it's vacation so...

This was a super cool and unique location to unwind and spend time with friends in a beautiful area. Highly recommend.

A little gem. Such a nice weekend getaway! Rooms are clean and dog friendly. Grocery store, breakfast, dinner, events all within walking distance. The pool is refreshing! Staff are kind and helpful. We’ll be back!

This was was second time that myself, my husband and my dog stayed. We always go with a group of friends. The beds are very comfy able and the decor is cool modern/ retro vibe. There are no tvs in the room which is a great way to disconnect and enjoy the scenery. The stars are amazing. They have a cool communal area that you can have an outdoor fireplace, there is corn hole, giant shuffle board and hot shoes as well as seating. A great place to hang with friends, enjoy some food and drinks and watch the stars. The area is in the middle of nowhere but there’s surprisingly a lot to do. There are some local restaurants and a market super close by. Lots of artwork to look at and drive out too. I recommend a off roading car to take advantage of the state park with off roading trails. Also they have a pool to cool off. Lastly the hotel is dog friendly so it was super cool to have everyone’s dogs roaming around and really enjoying themselves.

Plus: the staff was super friendly and knowledgeable of the area with good recommendation
