Location

Alila Marea is located in North County, San Diego, just 32 miles north of San Diego International Airport along the coast in Encinitas, one of the most unique and iconic coastal towns that dot California's Coast Highway 101. Here you can immerse in a vibe that is refreshingly unpretentious, artsy, and chill. Discover a balanced approach to the good life by exploring the sidewalk cafes and boutiques of the village, or surf the consistent ocean waves, bike along the scenic coastline, practice yoga or relax and reflect with a glass of wine. Alila Marea offers an escape that can be as laid back or as active as you choose.

The hallmark of Alila is the combination of innovative design and luxury in unique locations, set apart by an unprecedented level of private space, crafted artisanship, personalized hospitality, and bespoke journeys.

In support of sustainable tourism, Alila hotels adopt EarthCheck operating standards, integrating their environments' natural, physical, and cultural elements. To stay at any of Alila's hotels & resorts is to embark on a destination experience - be it in recreating the flavors of the local cuisine, enhancing your well-being through ancient healing arts, or the thrill of adventure sports, you will re-discover the luxury of living at Alila.
