Hang ten at Swami's Beach, immortalized by the Beach Boys in 'Surfin' USA.' The Self-Realization Fellowship Gardens offer peaceful meditation spaces on coastal bluffs overlooking the Pacific. Downtown feels like a 1950s movie set with a classic welcome sign spanning Coast Highway. Moonlight State Beach provides perfect swimming when Swami's waves prove too challenging. San Elijo State Beach attracts campers who wake to oceanfront views without the premium price. After sunset, explore main street's surf shops and seafood spots where locals debate wave conditions with scholarly precision. Families can venture to nearby LEGOLAND for a theme park experience that complements beach days.

Leucadia Beach Inn
10/10 Excellent
"This was the cutest, most comfortable place to stay! It was such a bonus to have the kitchen. The staff, especially Mark, were incredibly helpful and attentive. They bent over backwards for us and provided for our every need! I will definitely stay here again!"
Comfort Inn Encinitas Near Legoland
10/10 Excellent
"I reserved a 10 day stay with the Comfort Inn through Expedia starting 8/5/2026. Two days before our check in, I realized our plane flight home was one day earlier than I thought and tried to change it through Expedia - they couldn't do it and called the Comfort Inn but got no response. When I checked in, I had difficulty with the front desk adjusting our stay - they could not do it the first day and told me they would do it when I checked out. When I tried to check out on Friday the 14th (instead of Saturday)and get the bill, the clerk, Sam, could not adjust our bill for the Friday night refund and said he had to get a manager. I have rarely changed a reservation but never had a problem like this and I stay at hotels frequently. Please make sure I do get my refund as promised by Sam. I believe the amount was approximately $246. Thank you. Other than that, we had a very comfortable stay though parking spaces were very narrow and perhaps the next time you stripe the parking lot, it would be nice to make them at least six to eight inches wider to avoid damage with people getting in and out of their vehicles. There were a number of trucks/large cars in the lots (at least on the left side of the Inn). That would be most beneficial. Thanks for you consideration."
Days Inn by Wyndham Encinitas Moonlight Beach
8/10 Good
"The rooms are renovated and very clean, but there is still construction going on in the lobby and many other areas of the hotel, so it doesn't look nice outside rooms. Staff are cordial and professional, even though they don't have a reception area. Location is excellent."
