Discover the Best of California at the Lodge at Torrey Pines in La Jolla

Located just about 20-minutes north of San Diego hotspots like the Embarcadero, Balboa Park and historic Old Town, the lodge at Torrey Pines in La Jolla is a great place to stay and play when visiting America’s finest city.

The Lodge at Torrey Pines is San Diego’s premier luxury hotel that is located right on the 18th hole of the legendary Torrey Pines Golf Course. The South Course is a U.S. Open championship course, so it is a popular spot for golf lovers.

Getting a tee time at Torrey can be tough, especially if you’re from out of town. Luckily, there are preferred packages for hotel guests so that the Torrey Pines experience can be lived out to its fullest potential.

Golf isn’t the only reason the Lodge at Torrey Pines has been awarded AAA’S 5-Diamond rating every year since it opened in 2002. The lodge also boasts an exquisite location, top-notch service, a heated saline pool, full-service spa, fitness center, croquet lawn, and a signature restaurant called A.R. Valentien.

The restaurant has been named one of the top farm-to-table restaurants and is famous for their fresh charcuterie and unique menu that changes daily.

The Lodge at Torrey Pines has also received top marks from California’s Green Lodging Program. They minimize waste, have recycling programs, and work hard to protect the natural environment. They feel an obligation based on being coastal and being so close to the preserve.

The Torrey Pines State Reserve is one of the wildest stretches of land on the Southern California coast. Twice a day the Lodge offers guided hikes where visitors can see views of the ocean, sandstone cliffs, wildflowers and the nation’s rarest pine tree: the Torrey Pine.

Guests can also take advantage of the complimentary Audi service, explore the La Jolla shores or visit a number of restaurants and high-end boutiques in the area.
