Location: Harbor Island vs Del Mar village

Sheraton San Diego Resort – Location

Sheraton sits on Harbor Island beside the San Diego marina, very close to San Diego International Airport and downtown attractions.

  • About a 1-minute drive to San Diego International Airport and minutes from downtown, Little Italy, and the Gaslamp Quarter.
  • Waterfront walking and jogging trails plus easy access to harbor cruises and watersports.
  • Good choice if you want quick downtown access or an airport-adjacent base.

Choose Sheraton for proximity to SAN and downtown San Diego.

L'Auberge Del Mar – Location

L'Auberge Del Mar occupies a central spot in Del Mar, within a short walk of Del Mar Plaza and the beach.

  • Del Mar Plaza is 0.1 km away; Del Mar Beach about 0.7 km per the supplier listing.
  • Village shops, restaurants, and local attractions are within easy walking distance.
  • Better suited to travelers who prefer a seaside village setting over a downtown location.

Choose L'Auberge for direct access to Del Mar’s village and nearby beach.

Rooms: range and character

Sheraton San Diego Resort – Rooms

Sheraton has a wide selection of room types across towers, from standard rooms to suites and lanai accommodations.

  • 19 named room types are listed, including multiple tower and suite configurations.
  • Many rooms offer balconies or bay views; suites provide extra space and sofa beds for families.
  • Accessible rooms and mobility-friendly options are available.

Sheraton offers more room-type variety for families and group travelers.

L'Auberge Del Mar – Rooms

L'Auberge lists a curated set of rooms and suites with terrace or village/coastal designations.

  • Room types include 'Room, 1 King Bed (Village)', 'Room, 1 King Bed (Coastal)', 'Room, 1 King Bed, Cabana', and several suites like 'Suite (Del Mar)' and 'Suite, 1 Bedroom (Pacific)'.
  • Many guestrooms feature private balconies or patios and pillowtop beds with Egyptian cotton sheets (per supplier listing).
  • Accessible suites and terrace rooms are offered; some rooms list fireplaces or cabana-style options.

L'Auberge focuses on a smaller, design-forward room mix with private outdoor space in many rooms.

Dining & drinks: multiple outlets vs focused quality

Sheraton San Diego Resort – Dining & drinks

Sheraton provides a wide variety of on-site dining options for different moods and group sizes.

  • Venues include Rumorosa (Mexican/Baja), Brewery X (brew pub), Shorelight (Italian/American), Strada Italian Market (cafe), plus seasonal pool bars.
  • Several outlets offer extended hours; Rumorosa and Shorelight run early to late service.
  • On-site options make it easy for families and groups to find something nearby.

Sheraton is better if you want many casual and family-friendly dining choices on property.

L'Auberge Del Mar – Dining & drinks

L'Auberge has a smaller on-site food program with a main restaurant and a coffee shop/cafe.

  • The hotel offers one main restaurant, a coffee shop/cafe, and poolside bar service; cooked-to-order breakfast is available for a fee.
  • Menus emphasize locally sourced food (listing notes at least 80% locally sourced on site) and vegan options are available.
  • Room service is offered during limited hours.

L'Auberge suits travelers who prefer a single high‑quality restaurant and close village dining options outside the hotel.

Pools & beach: pools and marina access vs seaside proximity

Sheraton San Diego Resort – Pools & beach

Sheraton runs three heated outdoor pools, two hot tubs and waterfront activities on the marina.

  • Three outdoor heated pools including a family pool and a designated adults-only Lanai pool with cabanas.
  • Two spa tubs, sauna and bay-view fire pits as part of the pool complex.
  • On-site watersport rentals (paddleboarding, sailing) and seasonal poolside bar service.

Sheraton is ideal if you want multiple pool options and marina-based water activities.

L'Auberge Del Mar – Pools & beach

L'Auberge offers a single outdoor pool and a hot tub, with easy access to Del Mar Beach nearby.

  • One outdoor pool and one hot tub are listed in the supplier facts.
  • Del Mar Beach and village attractions are within a short walk, making ocean swimming and beach days convenient.
  • Poolside bar and lounge space support a quieter, more intimate pool experience.

L'Auberge is better if proximity to the ocean and a quieter pool environment matter more than multiple pools.

Wellness & nightlife: spa focus vs on-site activity

Sheraton San Diego Resort – Wellness & nightlife

Sheraton balances an on-site spa with many active options and lively evening venues.

  • Island Breeze Spa offers massages, facials, body treatments, and salon services plus a dry sauna and locker rooms.
  • 24-hour fitness centers in each tower with Peloton bikes and complimentary fitness/yoga classes.
  • Multiple bars and weekly events at Brewery X and Rumorosa create evening activity on site.

Sheraton mixes wellness with active and social programming—good for guests who want both.

L'Auberge Del Mar – Wellness & nightlife

L'Auberge centers wellness around its full-service spa and quieter evenings in Del Mar village.

  • The supplier listing notes a full-service spa offering massages, body treatments, and facials; reservations are recommended.
  • Yoga classes/instruction are listed on site and there's a focus on spa-driven relaxation.
  • Evening options include the hotel’s lounge and easy walking access to Del Mar dining and nightlife.

L'Auberge is the choice for guests prioritizing spa treatments and low-key evenings close to village restaurants.
