Del Mar is a lovely upscale beach town in Southern California just north of San Diego. Del Mar is Spanish for "by the sea." Del Mar is located along the Pacific Ocean and was founded in the nineteenth century as a seaside resort for the rich and famous.
San Diego county is located at the border of Mexico. The weather is always warm and sunny. Along the coast are small, quaint beach towns. Del Mar is one of them, blessed with cooling ocean breezes and lovely beach hotels. Towns like Encinitas and Carlsbad offer attractions like Quail Botanical Gardens and Legoland. They all have absolutely gorgeous beaches.
Del Mar has a very long record of Hollywood celebrities visiting because of the horse track that Bing Crosby and Jimmy Durante founded in 1936. Their star power made the Del Mar Race Track one of the most gorgeous and esteemed tracks in the world of racing. The horse track brought a steady steam of Hollywood types to the hotels in Del Mar. As a result, numerous Del Mar resorts and inns were founded and thrived.
Del Mar Ca hotels, inns and lodging accommodations are breathtaking, but pricey. One of the most exquisite Del Mar hotels is along the shores of the ocean - it's The Grand Del Mar, an awesome San Diego resort that, as they say, "Celebrates the connection we all have with stillness, comfort and relaxation."
Ranked among the best luxury resorts in the country by Conde Nast, L'Auberge, Del Mar beach hotel brings together panoramic coastal views, casual elegance and personalized service to create an outstanding romantic weekend getaway at a Del Mar resort.
The age-old San Diego County Fair has been held at the Del Mar Fairgrounds every summer. Locals refer to it as the Del Mar Fair - no one ever calls it the San Diego County Fair. The fair's location is perfect because it is only several blocks from the refreshingly cooling breezes from the Pacific Ocean on the first hot days of summer. If you decide to visit the fair, make sure you get reservations for accommodation before hand from any of the Del Mar inns or Del Mar hotels.
Of all the Del Mar bed and breakfasts and Del Mar hotels, the only one that is quaint, romantic and close to the beach for under $200 a night is Ann Dunham's Del Mar Bed and Breakfast.
Del Mar has two seaside parks - Seagrove and Powerhouse - both great for picnicking and stunning ocean views. Often referred to as "Malibu South," Del Mar hotels are second to none, especially the luxury beach hotels. Visitors love the trendy cafes and Italian restaurants located along Old Coast Highway 101.
