"Chula Vista" means beautiful view in Spanish, and despite centuries of change and construction, this name still holds true. The district was once controlled by Mexico, which is why it's famous for its authentic Mexican street food. And the craft beer scene leaves you spoiled for choice with drinks to wash down those tacos. It's a laid-back area, dotted with numerous golf courses, an enchanting marina looking out over San Diego Bay, and San Diego's largest waterpark. Fun and vibrant, it's a great for not only exploring the coastline but also the city itself. Our pick of the best hotels in Chula Vista is as vibrant and romantic as the neighbourhood itself — a restored Art Deco adults-only hotel.
