Best Hotels in Imperial Beach

Families love Imperial Beach. Just 5 miles north of Mexico, in San Diego's South Bay area, this 4-mile stretch of white sand is the perfect place for a relaxing beachside holiday. It has a long history of surfing — it was the spiritual home of many of California's surfing pioneers, who came for the big waves and the easy pace of life. The views alone are stunning. Imperial Beach is home to 370 species of birds, so expect to see a gorgeous array of wildlife, riders galloping on horseback along the fine white sand, and men fishing on the pier. The family-orientated, relaxing atmosphere of Imperial Beach encouraged our Gurus to select a great family hotel, which suits large groups.

For a family beach holiday

• Pier South Resort is perfect for a family beachside holiday. The light-filled, contemporary rooms spill out to private oceanfront balconies. And they're spacious — ideally suited for large groups. This chic, fresh resort was designed for complete relaxation, with its pampering spa, outdoor pool, Mediterranean restaurant, and yoga sessions. On the seafront, yet close to the rest of the town, this is the hotel to book for long stays or family trips.
