Local Tips
Get the Most for your Money at Pantai Inn
Pantai Inn is one of the best value hotels in La Jolla and it is located across the street from the Pacific Ocean!

While you are a guest on property, help yourself to the coffee and tea in the lobby, then head out to the private courtyard to take in that view while you enjoy your beverage. You are steps away from the beach, so stroll along the waterfront and look for the seals and sea lions that call La Jolla home.

Be sure to visit the courtyard again in the evening to see the majesty of the Pacific sunset, gather around the fire pit, or make a bonfire on the beach with your friends or family.

La Jolla is convenient to the rest of San Diego, which means you aren’t far from many of the popular attractions that draw visitors to the area every year.

Once you’ve had your fill of time on the sea or shore, you can explore some of the other beach communities or head downtown to experience the nightlife, shopping, dining, and other entertainment options that await you.

When you stay at Pantai Inn, it’s as if you get a both a city and an island vacation, rolled into one.

Pantai Inn is listed as one of our top picks for the Best Boutique Hotels in San Diego.

Nearby Things to Do

While you’re in La Jolla, you should visit the beaches to swim, surf, snorkel or sunbathe. One of the more popular spots is the La Jolla Cove, where you can swim, snorkel, or even scuba dive. Stand-up paddle boards are another trendy pastime but you cannot launch them at the La Jolla Cove as this is a swimming only beach.

Another main attraction is The Children's Pool Beach. The sea wall that guards this cove was built to create a safe place for children to swim, but the local seals and sea lions like the protection and have taken over the beach. You may not be able to go on the beach if it’s pupping season, but when you look at those cute sea mammals, you may not care.

The hotel can also arrange local excursions, or you can venture to San Diego to check out these sites:
