  Return Guest, Great property!

  Beautiful property, luxurious, excellent housekeeping, fitness center and spa. Pluses—Pony Dining room, especially outdoor seating was lovely, dinner delicious, though they often run out of the daily specials early (7:30PM). Complimentary mini-bar with snacks, large beautifully appointed rooms, great staff. Fresh orange juice delivered to our room each morning is a lovely addition. Room service was excellent. Excellent personal trainer (Ricky), massages and other spa services. Misses—too many outdoor events, weddings, children’s parties etc that are noisy and distracting in the set up. The area is adjacent to guest rooms and the dining room, so noise and assembling and disassembling was distracting and noisy for a luxury property. Breakfast service was slow, so slow we were comped one breakfast, we had to leave before it was fully served.

  Rancho Valencia Resort - Disappointing Bruch at the "PONY" restaurant

  2026-0727 Hello, I was debating whether to write a review, but decided today it was necessary even though we didn't pay the bill. Our son came from LA and treated us to my birthday. We also live in Rancho Santa Fe, and we had visited the resort a few years ago but never ate at the "Pony" restaurant. We were there for brunch. My wife had an omelette which had no taste and half the dish was filled with some wild lettuce with no dressing or olive oil or parmesan. Just terrible. Her orange juice was not fresh squeezed, which you would expect. I had the lemon pancakes which was good. Our son had a Mexican dish which he said was ok, but he had better Mexican food from a food truck in LA. Our son paid the bill which he said was over $200 + tip. The cost was not the issue. The quality of food and service was the disappointment since it is supposed to be a resort and a high quality restaurant. A big let down for a special family event. Tom & Crystal

  Amazing experience!

  Love love love this hotel. I want to live there! The spa treatments were A+++++, the food is amazing, all of the staff seem really happy to work there. Molly Simpson, a manager, made our trip after a little spill my mom took. Cant wait to go back.

  Absolutely gorgeous and great service

  We stayed for 4th of July with our two young kids. We had a blast at the pool and the restaurant. The boutique has awesome shopping and clothes options. The customer service is unmatched - they gave both of our kids jellycats stuffed animals upon check-in. Overall experience was 12/10.
