Pala Mesa Resort Review

First time playing. A lot of narrow fairways w/sand traps in the landing zone. Greens are also protected by sand. Challenging but fun. Pace of play was great

Quiet but older hotel.. Staff was friendly.and attentive.. Room was clean just needs a upgrade..

FALLBROOK LIVE
Go dance about it

Needs remodeling in dining room, food & service getting better, took sushi away which we loved.

Quiet beautiful resort. Great restaurant. This was our second stay here. Will be back.

We were at the Bonsall Wine & Beer Festival excellent venue for a charity benefit.

Great course,

Found a deal online and figured why not. Driving range and club house are small, but staff was friendly. Course played very hard if you have a fade, tight to the left, definitely favors you if you can draw the ball on the front 9.

Back nine was wide open, and pace of play was pretty good. Drink cart came by twice during the round (plus for me) and friendly golfers. Really enjoyed myself, will return.

Relaxing and chill yet fancy! Late checkouts great staff!

Greens are in great condition... Fairways not so much

This place is gorgeous, but the staff has no sense of urgency or desire to assist. We went for lunch and it took forever. Instead of apologizing or trying to check on our order, they responded with excuses that showed how little they prioritize their guests. If you hold a wedding here, I'm sure they're great. Otherwise, I recommend going elsewhere.

Below average. Tee's were punched, not clean. Tee boxes all forward. Danny on the beverage cart was great. Very hospitable. Jeff Parkinson

Exceptional service rooms were clean food was great

This place is so nice and beautiful. We didn't get a chance to golf but the course looks great. The restaurant was so good! Definitely eat there. Decent price for the rooms and quality of service received. Everyone was so nice and friendly.

I would give this place 0 stars if I could Rooms stung of old cigarettes and mold room looked like it has not been updated since 1960 and I believe the mattress on the bed was that old also. Price dose not match amenities over priced motel 6

Large portions, even for the kids menu items! And everything tasted great. My daughter has allergies and the staff were very helpful to make sure the food was safe for her.

Excellent grub, wonderful staff and a nice beer selection! What's not to like?!

The staff is wonderful! A shout out to Sarah & Elizabeth for all your hard work to make our weekend fabulous!!!

Food was DELICIOUS!! Salmon was cooked perfectly and wasn't too "fishy". The crab cake was superb with minimal herbs/spices so you could enjoy the flavors, also perfectly cooked. Bottomless mimosas was great, although it did take a while to More

Rooms are large, suites are great, get groupon deals. Old fashioned and exteriors are run down but grounds are awesome. If you get the 129 special its fun.

It was pretty nice, the jacuzzi was really dirty though so can't give it full stars the food was ok little bit smaller portion sizes for less food, at least what I got. But it was a good place to get away for a few nights.

Great overall experience. Course was in good condition especially the greens. And the starter actually did his job well resulting in No standing around waiting at the tee box.

Tough but fair golf course. Great dining area also. Snack bar needs a face lift.

This place is in need of updating. They're a good wedding venue, but the hotel rooms- from linens, to furnitures, to their bathroom has not been redone since the 80's. The staff are wonderful and attentive. I would love to see this place remodeled. It has so much potential. Bring an airfreshener if you're staying here, because this place is old and musty. Room service is provided by the in-house restaurant. Price is reasonable and it was delicious. They have a very well stocked in-house bar, a sushi bar and restaurant. One of the chef is a whiskey guru. They're about 1.5 mile away from the nearest market. There are hardly any streetlights on the old highway, so it's easily missed. Overall, it's a great place- the state of their hotel rooms really did take away their stars. The restaurant clientele are nice local people, golfers mainly. A local genleman named Jay, offered to walk me to my car from the lobby as I was ready to brave the rain in my dress and heels. He had an umbrella, I didn't. That's the kind of people you'll meet there. We were there for four days for a wedding. Wish I could've given a five star.

Greens were hard and a rolled faster than average. Hit the fairway with the ball and it will run. Over all the course is in ok shape.

Excellent place to stay! Beautiful golf course! Quiet and scenic!!

Went for a wedding on a Saturday. The place was amazing. Great food, awesome event staff, shuttle, great view, just overall really good. I might have to have my wedding there.

Beautiful resort, excellent golf course (especially the greens) with wonderful views. Staff is always helpful, and I feel like I'm on vacation when I'm there, even though I live ten minutes away. Highly recommend.

Horrible for now but they have notes in the room about the construction going on. They are turning it into a Hilton Double Tree. So hopefully it'll be nice when done. Has lots of potential!

Old, outdated rooms. Bathtub clogged. My room still had a tube tv.

Great putting green enjoyed the driving range. Did not play the course.

We reserved an executive king suit but we were put in a standard room. It was not clean and had a bad smell. The front desk moved us into a different room with a 20 dollar up charge. Not much of a difference, besides the belcony. Rooms are outdated and dirty. Would not come back.

More run down than I expected for the price and the pictures. It's not quite a resort if you aren't golfing.

Pool was DIRTY. The room we had looked outdated as far as the furniture. Patio had all kinds of cob webs. On the outside it is nice I must say.

Beautifully maintained, friendly, competent staff...a great place to visit.

Only stopped by to pick something up for reality rally

Didn't play the course, only booked for the room and the room looked sad and outdated.

Old and dated is the best way to describe the rooms. The Internet did not work. I spent 30 minutes on the phone with tech support only to be told that the router wasn't working and that the problem would be passed on to second level support. Not worth the money.

Went there for a wedding excellent hotel Many amenities hotel bar that's a great place to have weddings.

Good food and drinks, great sushi bar. Service can be a bit spotty though.

Unbelievably Awful. Outrageously Rude/Condescending Staff. Disgusting, Old Rooms

DO NOT STAY HERE! Have stayed at many hotels throughout the years and this is BY FAR the worst. Shockingly rude front desk staff, even worse management. Checked in with a credit card authorization form instead of a physical swipe. I was checked in and given my room & keys. About 30 minutes later, Mark Dixon, (Front Desk Manager), called my room accusing me of forging the credit card authorization form! Obviously this was not the case and I was utterly shocked at this arrogant, unverified, & unconfirmed accusation. He then proceeded to THREATEN ME WITH EVICTION (under false pretenses). His exact words were: "..we'll find a way to get you out then..". Appalling. Keep in mind my reservation was PREPAID, so any eviction would be an illegal breach of contract between parties. Eventually it was resolved and his erroneous claim was proven false. What an embarrassing moment for this novice manager. Clearly Mark is not able to handle the responsibilities that come with his position and should be reassigned to rinse dishes in the back. I have never experienced such abysmal customer service. The next day I spoke with the general manager over the phone hoping to get some kind of explanation. Sadly, Kevin Poorbaugh was just as inept a manager. Very defensive, unprofessional, and uninformed- a complete amateur. Anyone knows customer service is paramount to the success of ANY business. Just a bunch of egotistical resort snobs. Rooms were moldy, dusty, and had a repulsive musky smell. Ants and bugs in the room. Save your money, this resort isn't even worth staying for free.

I've stayed at many hotels and this was the worst ever. The room smelled so bad I gagged every time I went in. Unfortunately I didn't have another choice at the time otherwise I would have gone somewhere else. There should be a rating lower than 1.

Went for the Sunday buffet breakfast. Great price. Omelette bar. Highly recommend.

Very friendly place with staff wanting to please their customers.

Thursday Sep. 20th 2018 My Wife and I came Here to Celebrate Our 13th year Anniversary with a romantic night getaway . We were truly Blessed to get one of there nicest rooms over looking the wedding venue and water falls . We both had a 90 min couples massage from the onsite spa( Bello Vita Spa ) Karen and the Ladies are truly AMAZING and have magical hands and could not have been more relaxing.. We got back to our room and the Hotel Surprised and Blessed us with a gift a compliantly bottle of Champaign. The food was great too we went down for lunch on Thursday over looking the golf course and we eat in for dinner and then breakfast the next morning .. The service was Great. This romantic get away was a 100 out of 100 on the point scale my wife said... I recommend you stay here for a romantic getaway and let them know before hand .. It will make for a very beautiful night... Thank you Kevin P. and all the Resort staff for making our stay very special and a Blessing ....

Smallest casino ever been in my entire life. Didnt hate it, well yes I did. You feel like you're walking into a bank robbery and your the bank. It's just a heavy vibe in this place the 2nd you walk in the door,

The room smelled like my grandma's house and was not the sort of room I would expect from a resort. The mini fridge hardly worked and had no way to make it colder. We ended up having to throw our food away. It looked like it was from the 90s in thr room.

Nice course. Good variety. Staff was great. It appeared the greens had been recently punched, so they were very bumpy. They really need better yardage markers. Overall, a great day of golf.

love the tuna salad sandwich... cold beer, drinks.great service and enviroment..dog friendly

Was there for an event. Staff was helpful and food was great. Not sure how the hotel is but they're off to a good start.

Really nice to spend the summer evenings here out on the patio listening to local musicians and drinking wonderful beer I like their sushi roll Happy Hour too!

Came here for an event and loved the location. Right off the freeway and the grounds were well maintained

The golf is slightly over priced for the quality of course. The gym is forgettable. Otherwise it was a pretty good overall experience.

Great resort style holf course in good shape, especially the greens. Very forward, what you see is what you get type of course.

Very good place to go and just relax and enjoy the air conditioning and everything else

The golf course is in rough condition. Greens are patchy. Tee boxes are uneven. The fairways are pretty bad as well. Not worth the drive or money. Much better courses around
