    This place suits me perfectly with great amenities like outdoor swimming pool, fitness centre, and wifi. The staff once helped me with a wake-up call, which I remember fondly. I recommend it for a city break.

    beautiful views
    no free breakfast
    limited early check-in

    Our stay at Grand Pacific Palisades Resort was fantastic! We stayed in a Two-Bedroom Suite that was perfect for our family. It was spacious and clean with a full kitchen, which allowed us to prepare meals together. The kids absolutely loved the family pool with all its fun water features, and we enjoyed the beautiful views from the property while walking along the flower gardens.

    Wished breakfast was included.

    Ideal Family Spot with Room for Improvement

    Our stay in a Two-Bedroom Suite was enjoyable despite some hiccups. The kids loved the pool, but it would have been fantastic to grab coffee on-site rather than trek to Starbucks. Keep an eye out for early morning noise from neighbors.

    great stay but breakfast could improve

    The two-bedroom suite provided excellent space for our family. Guest services offered warm welcomes and thoughtful treats for the kids.

    Breakfast options are not complimentary, which may be a downside for some travelers.

    Perfect for a Family Trip with Plenty of Activities

    We had a fantastic time here during our Legoland trip, especially with the direct access to the park that made things so easy for the kids. The family pool was a hit with its fun water features, and the full kitchen in our Two-Bedroom Suite allowed us to prepare meals together, which was perfect for us. However, I wish breakfast options were included as part of our stay.

    proximity convenience
    quiet villa
    spacious suite
    breakfast options
    game room
    checkout experience

    The location made it easy to access Legoland without a hassle. I loved how close the parking was to my room. The assigned parking in Villa C kept everything convenient and quiet for a good night's sleep. I appreciated the spacious two-bedroom suite. The kitchen had everything I needed to prepare meals, which was really handy for my family. However, the breakfast options fell short and were quite limited. The game room was a bit disappointing. the coin machine was broken during my stay, which was frustrating since we had to find other ways to keep the kids entertained. Also, the checkout process felt rushed, and the front desk staff seemed a bit indifferent, unlike the friendly experience I had during check-in. A few in-room safes would have added a layer of security too.

    spacious suite
    convenient location
    transportation issue
    dining inconvenience
    limited activities

    Spacious two-bedroom suites with a convenient layout, including a Jack and Jill bathroom, were ideal for family stays. The proximity to Legoland is a major plus, and the kids loved the daily activities and pool area. However, the lack of shuttle service was disappointing, necessitating Uber for local transport. The on-site dining hours could be improved, resulting in limited options during certain times.

    plumbing issues
    noise disturbances

    The room's plumbing could use a bit of attention. some mornings the water temperature was all over the place, swinging between scalding hot and icy cold. Also, the walls are thin, which made it tricky to avoid disturbances from loud neighbors—even at the 'quiet' pool where young families tended to congregate. Navigating the sprawling layout can feel a bit like a maze. expect a good 10–15 minute walk to reception from your suite, especially after a long day out.

    in-room safes
    security concern

    The beautifully landscaped grounds and easily navigable pathways were ideal for me as a senior. I appreciated the well-maintained areas, which allowed for leisurely strolls and made accessing different amenities a breeze.

    In-room safes would enhance security for seniors.

    would stay here again

    The room was a spacious two-bedroom suite with a kitchen, refrigerator, coffee machine, and microwave, perfect for family meals. The outdoor swimming pool and hot tub were fun for everyone. The location is super close to Legoland, just a five-minute walk. Staff were attentive and organized daily activities for the kids.
