The property houses downtown's largest rooftop pool, a 24-hour fitness center with cardio equipment and free weights, and 13000 square feet of event space. Situated 0.5 miles from the San Diego Convention Center and 0.5 miles from Petco Park, Margaritaville provides direct access to over 100 dining and entertainment venues.

“This hotel really understands a laid-back vibe. I particularly like the largest rooftop pool in downtown, alongside unique Caribbean-inspired dining, make it a tempting choice for leisure escapes. And with its prime Gaslamp Quarter location, it's ideal for enjoying San Diego's nightlife and attractions, even with your small dog.”
