The rooms were good sized. Their products smelled amazing. The property had a great courtyard with games and a variety of sitting areas. The breakfast was very expensive and they had 25% in additional surcharges. We won’t eat there again however we will stay there again.

When we travel to San Diego, we always stay on Shelter Island because we like the area. The staff was very friendly and helpful. For the price, Kona Kai is not worth the amount of money you pay to stay there. The resort was nice, but the cost of the rooms and resort fees are excessive. I believe the other hotels on the island are just as nice and far more affordable. Other issues: the bar at the adult pool closed at 5pm on Thursday, the hair dryer in our room was sticking with hair on it, the bathroom door was a barn door and did not lock- very little privacy, and the room was a bit dusty. My family enjoyed the fire pits at night fall and our view of the marina was nice.

Clean & updated , very pricey for what it is. Basically a hotel room with pool access in a nice area. Not with the price in my opinion. We had a good deal we thought but after the additional cost of parking and resort fees we won’t be back.
13.10.2025 Noel
Fees were crazy...I have stayed at 4 star resorts in Hawaii where the resort fees were just over half of what they are here and the valet parking was included...Kona Kai gets you for an extra $100/Night for these 2 fees. Room was very comfortable, but probably not worth it in the end.

We were on our Honeymoon and we fully enjoyed our stay. It was clean and convenient with so many amenities. We are totally going back for our next San Diego trip.

Room a bit small and bed not comfortable. Consider mattress replacement for room 123
22.09.2025 Stefanie
We enjoyed the beautiful views of the Marina and sitting at the Fire pit in the evening.
10.09.2025 Mitchell
The property is amazing, clean and very safe. The dining option is mediocre at best, you will need a vehicle during your stay or plan to Uber. The $45 daily parking fee is pricey in my opinion. The new energy efficient rooms will shut off your AC and refrigerator when you aren't in the room. Our AC failed night two of our stay and the property was kind enough to credit our account $50.

I loved staying at this property on shelter Island in San Diego. The Bay trail that’s nearby overlooking the bay, and the city itself was just beautiful. The hotel property was well appointed love the amenities like the pool and spa. The food was very good

The location is very good, surrounded by sea views and a separate beach. The facilities are old but well maintained.
