The bottom line is GMK saved me hundreds of dollars on my honeymoon trip to Hawaii. What was most impressive (especially to my wife) is GMK booked us in a resort not publicly listed right off the beach in Waikiki. Being our first time in Hawaii, it was perfect. Everything we wanted and needed (restaurants, groceries, activities) were in walking distance. GMK also recommended tourist spots and activities to enjoy on our trip. From the direct flight fm Sacramento to Honolulu, the car rental, and the resort, GMK made everything easy. GMK took away the headaches and made the process hassle-free....and did I mention saving me $$$? Highly recommend GMK!

I was simply amazed and left only to believe in magic (and yes, she's handled similar asks for business traveler friends of mine, too!). But what really stood out wasn't just the unbelievable result, it was the way the team at Express Travel Services handled everything along the way. Karina brought such professionalism, organization, and genuine care to what was honestly a very stressful situation for me. She and her network worked tirelessly to make what felt almost impossible seem seamless. Every detail was handled thoughtfully, and I always felt like I was in good hands with constant, personalized updates along the way. If they could deliver on a request this difficult, I have no doubt they can handle just about any travel or visa need you may have. Truly above and beyond service. Six out of five stars. Thank you again, Karina!

When he " started from scratch" and put in a new application for me, I got the approval the very next day! It was such a relief, and I'm very grateful to Brian for making it happen. Next time I ever need a Visa, I will definitely just go straight to Travel Express to get it done !

Our most recent trip was to SanDiego, Monterey, Carmel, and Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks. Nicole booked us lodgings that were always very nice and comfortable, whether it was a beautiful inn in Carmel, a condo in Yosemite, or an airport hotel. She is very detail oriented so everything flows smoothly on the trips. We have no worries and can focus on the sights we are seeing. She planned fantastic trips to Belize and the Canadian Rockies for us that were dreams come true. We told her what we liked to do and she arranged for local tours for us. She made sure we were able to get to the airports comfortably and on time. Nicole is very approachable so any questions or concerns we had, were always addressed by her quickly. She spends a lot of time helping us plan our itinerary and gives us valuable feedback and suggestions from her wealth of experience. She has a lot of patience and stays cool, calm, and collected when faced with travel challenges like weather or changes in laws. We look forward to many more trips put together by Nicole. She makes all of our trips special.

I had a great time! Beat my expectations a lot given the extremely low price. So the room was WAY bigger than expected for what I paid for it. I understand that it was the suite, but I wasn't expecting a large suite at all because it was so cheap. The front service was super friendly, helpful, everything. They were able to facilitate complimentary early check-in as well. In short, the service was very good and everyone at the front desk was super helpful and accomodating. Apparently there's some sketchy areas nearby if you walk to Old Town through a very weird direction (you should actually cross the street and go through the underground passage). Location is convenient, the prices are SUPER affordable, and it's just overall nice and cozy. Complimentary breakfast was also nice and easy. Had a very pleasant stay and would likely stay here again the next time I'm in this part of San Diego!

It may not be the most updated hotel on the boardwalk, but it has everything you need. The staff is always welcoming, the house keeping staff are friendly and trustworthy, the parking lot is gated and secured by a guard throughout the day, the rooms are always clean the grounds are well maintained, and after all the years of being loyal visitors, we have yet to experience anything negative at this property. I love that the grounds are secure and you can allow your children to go into the courtyard area and play the provided games with peace of mind- knowing that they'll be safe. They provide tons of outdoor seating options and grills for tenants, which makes cooking a breeze. In order to enter from the beach/boardwalk, you must have a room key to enter the premises- another awesome perk. This keeps all the riff-raft out of the area. &At night, they also require a room key to enter through the front of the building- which is a newer feature, and much appreciated. You can leave your beach toys & chairs outside your room without worrying about someone coming to steal it. We have locked our bikes up downstairs in the courtyard area & nobody messes with them. This is such a great place to stay & an amazing tradition that our family has. We look forward to our visit every May!

It was right on the beach as…read moreadvertised, tons of active beach goers, surfers, dog walkers, joggers, teens at lifeguard school, you name it -- all sorts of active lifestyles without it feeling too crowded. The parking lot isn't huge so the first night we had to park in the metered lot next door, but they reimburse you for any parking fees. I was however able to find parking the next two days. They even gave me a courtesy call saying they noticed my car in the other lot and to remind me to move it by a specific time. I had already set my alarm to move it, but that was nice. The lobby has free coffee/ espresso machine and a dispenser for purified water. They provide beach towels and efficient room service. The rooms themselves are pretty comfortable, but we had someone above us that walked back and forth non stop which was a bit annoying. I mean it's just one room and a bathroom how much walking do you need to do lol. When you go out your door, you just walk a down the little walkway to the beach. Everyone is barefoot it's so close. They have little areas to rinse off your feet and also a brush hanging outside your door handle to brush the excess sand off, cute touch. The beach viewing lounge area (pictured) is nice, people hang out there and drink their coffee or work on their laptops. I had one suggestion, and that would be to build a platform deck for the back seats, because it would give them an unobstructed view. As it is now, the wall blocks some of your view, but putting a platform deck would solve that and be relatively inexpensive to do. We would totally stay here again, it's walking distance to several good restaurants and a short drive to more. Relaxed, friendly vibe. The lobby itself

A couple of friends were visiting from San Francisco and had one extra night left at this hotel that were not going to use it. So since they were taking me for dinner at nearby Jake's, my girlfriend offered me the empty room for the night so I didn't have to drive in the dark and also enjoy a beautiful morning doing my 10,000 steps while simultaneously meditating and recording an episode of my podcast in Spanish. I loved the room super spacious and with everything I needed (even if the coffee machine did not work for me). Being right there by the beach was a total treat. I feel loved by my friends, especially since I have not been out of San Diego since past September for budget reasons doing multiple jobs at the time. So I appreciate this generosity and being at Del Mar Beach hotel as it is one of my favorite beaches and brings so much joy. The decor in the small lobby is very surfer, cool vibe. Similar inside the room. The restaurant does not have restaurant for breakfast but they offer free coffee and you can buy simple sweets (although there are plenty of options to eat nearby). Parking at the back of the hotel, no problem finding a spot and it is validated. Awesome experience, chill people, glorious sunsets from there!

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. Unfortunately, our experience was extremely…read moredisappointing from start to finish. To begin with, we did not encounter any of the "super friendly" staff mentioned in other reviews. In fact, the only interactions we had were overhearing staff laughing and chatting loudly while guests were trying to sleep. It felt unprofessional and inconsiderate. The walls were incredibly thin--we could hear everything, including conversations and people walking through the hallways. There was absolutely no sense of privacy. On top of that, the mattress was very uncomfortable, making it difficult to get any proper rest. The shower also had visible mold, which was surprising given how highly the property is reviewed for cleanliness. Overall, I would never stay here again. If it hadn't been Valentine's weekend and difficult to find alternative accommodations, we would have left and booked somewhere else.

It's in the heart of Pacific Beach and within easy walking distance to the beach, restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and shopping. We hardly had to use our car the entire stay. The front desk staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment we arrived. He definitely went above and beyond. I didn't get his name but I was there around 6p. Thank you so much! We chose to pay for on-site parking, and I highly recommend it. Parking in Pacific Beach can be challenging, so having a guaranteed parking spot made our trip completely stress-free. We originally booked a partial ocean view room, but to our surprise, the front desk upgraded us to a full oceanfront room at no charge! They explained that they randomly select a few guests each day for complimentary perks such as room upgrades, free parking, or late checkout. We felt so lucky and truly appreciated the thoughtful gesture. The rooms have been beautifully renovated and are modern, clean, and very comfortable. The air conditioning worked great, the refrigerator was convenient, and everything felt fresh and well maintained. It's the perfect boutique beach hotel with an upscale feel while still being relaxed and comfortable. Overall, this hotel exceeded our expectations in every way. Between the outstanding customer service, unbeatable location, beautiful renovated rooms, and unexpected upgrade, this was one of our favorite hotel stays in San Diego. We will absolutely be back!

The photos must've been taken at a flattering angle... from a different building. Let's start with parking, or rather, the thrilling scavenger hunt that is not included in your stay. You'll circle the block like a lost tourist in a bumper car, only to end up parking three zip codes away. It certainly doesn't help that the staff gives away parking spots to their friends while paying customers go without. Don't worry though, they'll call you on your third day to tell you that parking has miraculously opened up because they failed to sell out on their website. The room itself? Think "tiny house" but without the charm. It's so small that turning around feels like a game of Twister, and every surface seems to have been weaponized with sharp corners. A relaxing beach retreat shouldn't require a first-aid kit. Then there's the humidity...the kind that makes your clothes feel like they went swimming without you. The air inside the room is basically ocean soup, and everything smells faintly of wet flip-flops. Be prepared to wash every piece of your clothing, whether or not you wore it on vacation. The bathroom features a stylish sliding barn door, which is a great design choice if you've always wanted to share your most private moments with your travel companion. Hope you're close, or at least on speaking terms after this trip. The staff: Let's just say they operate on "beach time," except it's the kind of beach where no one wants to help you. Friendly enthusiasm must've checked out before we arrived. However, Housekeeping was great. Sure, it's near the beach, but so is a lifeguard tower, and you might get more space and hospitality there.
