We stayed 5 nights at the Four Seasons Resort Aviara for business/leisure, and it was a wonderful experience. The resort was absolutely beautiful and the people there were friendly and helpful.
To ensure that our conference event functions went well, we had our own staff member, who not only gave us a tour of the resort, but was always available when we needed advice or assistance.
His knowledge and experience assured us that we were in good hands, and there was no doubt that we had selected the perfect place to hold our company group functions.
The resort services include fine dining at several restaurants either within the resort, or just a shuttle away to have a great steak dinner in the golf resort complex.
As well, the resort offers their guests access to their fitness facilities, spa/pool/hottub, tennis courts, golf course, valet parking, walking trails to and from the resort, and their free access game room (pool table, foosball table, table shuffleboard, and free unlimited access to their video games - arcade/ps2).
The rooms are very comfortable, and very maintained. There was never a time that we returned and our room was not cleaned. Included in the room is a television, radio, mini-bar, shower and tub, double bathroom sinks (his and hers), safe, closet, and wonderful view of the complex.
The dining is reasonably priced, especially for the breakfast, lunch, and dinner seafood buffets at the California Bistro restaurant. The steak dinner at the Argyle Steakhouse (at the golf complex) was pleasant treat for those who enjoy their meat. For those who must eat within your room, the resort offers in-room dining. I must also mention that the desserts in the California Bistro were very tasty for those who have a weakness for sweets :)
If you are interested in afternoon tea, the resort offers afternoon tea/finger snacks that is perfect for those who want to relax and enjoy the comfort of their stay in San Diego. The orange-chocolate tea was very tasty.
I could go on and on about my wonderful experience at the Aviara resort, but I must leave room for other people's feedback on this 5 diamond resort.
Thank you to the staff at the Aviara for making our stay at your resort a memorable experience.
