They come with personalized pool attendant service, refrigerator stocked with waters and assorted sodas, 49″ HDTV, Wi-Fi, personal safe, sofa, arm chair and chaise lounge. The poolside cabanas - available for rent - are very inviting. There is also a full-service poolside café & bar. Set beneath the Palomar Mountains, the area boasts five heated pools and 14 luxury cabanas, along with waterfalls, fire pits, deck chairs, Jacuzzis, and floating daybeds, all scattered about a beautiful outdoor courtyard. Once acquainted with the room, we took the elevator down to the lobby and walked outside to paradise at the resort’s sparkling adults-only pool plaza.

The rooms at Pala are luxurious and offer great views

Elegant and welcoming, the room boasted a comfy king bed, big flat screen TV, office area with free Internet, a large bathroom with walk-in shower and tub, a mini-fridge and coffee maker and a large, relaxing chair. The getaway began when a friend and I checked into a gorgeous 4th floor suite in Pala’s AAA Four-Diamond hotel, overlooking the nearby Palomar Mountains. Pala Casino Spa & Resort is a fun and relaxing getaway in San Diego County I didn’t win any money, but I did stay in an awesome hotel room, dine at a couple great restaurants, and experience the resort’s stunning, new pool area.
