Wave Crest

  • May 15, 2006
  • Rated 3 of 5 by Marsha Keller from Downers Grove, Illinois
Best Things Nearby:
Mountains, San Diego Zoo, Beach

Best Things About the Resort:
Close to ocean

Resort Experience:

Wave Crest is one block from the ocean with easy access to the beach on a walking trail. The town has many upscale shops and restaurants. Our studio apartment was adequate for 2 people, an old unit, but well maintained with a very friendly staff. There was an outdoor pool and heated hot tub on site. The resort is close to a railroad track, but no difficulty with sleeping.

If you are going to the area in May or June it is best to remember "Gray May and June Gloom". Until we drove to the mountains we did not see the sun for 7 days and average temperature was in the low 60's.

The mountains are within  1 hour drive, with many beautiful hiking trails. Some with very rough terrain. The meadows withing the state/national forests have breath taking views. We plan to return to the area for hiking again. We only went to San Diego one day and visited the zoo and Balboa park.

Wave Crest Timeshare

  • November 11, 2004
  • Rated 5 of 5 by Figjam from Salt Lake, for now, Utah
Best Things Nearby:
Many restaurants and pubs, and they all have great food and great atmospheres! Public beach is very close, and there's a nice public park next to the resort. Lots of people picnicking, playing frisbee, and just hanging out, enjoying the scenery!

Best Things About the Resort:
Small and private. Very well-maintained, and the units are nice. Location, location, location!!

Resort Experience:
Small, two-story, apartment-like buildings. They have many two-bedroom villas that sit right on the edge of the property, overlooking the ocean! And any second-floor unit will guarantee a spectacular ocean view! Front desk has all the movie DVDs you could desire, and they're free to borrow. The beach on-site is very popular, and like I said, there's a public beach right there! So there are tons of people running around, especially the girls! An ideal spot!

Wave Crest Timeshare

  • February 28, 2002
  • Rated 4 of 5 by LoCho from San Jose, California
Best Things Nearby:
Solano Beach, Del Mar Racetrack, Bizarre Del Mundo in Old Town San Diego, Scripps Aquarium...

Best Things About the Resort:
Wave Crest is a relatively small timeshare, with a very friendly and helpful staff. Most of the bungalows have an ocean view and they are all well equipped and nicely furnished.

Resort Experience:
Wave Crest has bungalows that range in size from studio to 2 bedrooms. Each has a kitchen, complete with dishes and appliances. There is a TV and VCR in the living room and each bedroom, and you can borrow videos for free from the front office. There is a pool and spa, but they are small. At the poolside there are gas barbeques for guests to use, with all the utensils provided. There is a guest lounge where you can get a cup of coffee, lounge by the fireplace, or play one of the boardgames that you're welcome to borrow. The timeshare is a 5 minute walk down to the beach and also a short walk to nearby shopping and fine dining. Because it is a small timeshare, they do not have organized group activities, but the staff members are always ready to suggest activities if you are interested.
