The Pool at The Lodge at Torrey Pines

" To unwind, there's a heated swimming pool with cabanas and a hot tub under a gazebo; a serene 9,500-square-foot spa provides a range of treatments using natural, marine-based products"

"Requisite resort-style amenities, a pool with classical music piped in underwater, beach cabanas (in summer), and a full day spa please the families, romantic couples, businessmen, and golfers who stay here"

"The lodge's on-site facilities are up to par for a luxury resort -- heated outdoor pool with underwater music, beautiful spa, and a famous golf course that's a stop on the PGA Tour"

"It "doesn't get better" than this "beautiful", Craftsman-inspired "luxury" resort in La Jolla, overlooking the renowned Torrey Pines golf course, providing "all you could want on a weekend getaway" – including an "excellent spa", "fine restaurant" and even a pool with underwater music; the "large", "well-appointed rooms" are "spectacular", combining Bose stereos with Mission-style furnishings, and the "conscientious" service is "first class", leaving admirers "breathless"

"Poolside cabanas, a whirlpool, a croquet lawn, and a terrace with chaise lounges provide a variety of ways to spend a sunny afternoon"
