Summary

Welcome to Alila Marea Beach Resort Encinitas, a defining and iconic beachfront resort located in North County, San Diego, just 28 miles north of San Diego International Airport. Both historic and breathtaking, Encinitas is a unique setting among a group of beach enclaves that dot California's Coast Highway 101. The vibe here is refreshingly unpretentious, artsy and chill, and a place where the local residents take a balanced, holistic approach to the good life. Whether riding the consistent ocean waves, biking along the dramatic coastline, swimming and bodysurfing, practicing yoga or just relaxing, reflecting and toasting with a glass of wine, it's an enviable lifestyle that echoes the essence of our distinctive relaxed luxury experience.
