My wife and I headed out to Borrego on Cinco de Mayo to check out the biggest full moon of the year and to visit a "dark sky community." We stayed at the Hacienda del Sol for just one night and it was a pleasant experience. The owner/manager Mike was very friendly when we checked in. You can borrow from... More

My wife and I stayed at Hacienda del Sol for 4 nights in April, 2011, using the room as our luxurious 'base camp' for day-hiking in the Anza-Borrego State Park. The room was quiet, clean and comfortable, and the rates were reasonable. No expensive 5-star frills, but most hikers don't care for that kind of thing, anyway. Having a clean... More

Thank you so much for coming the Hacienda del Sol. I am so glad you enjoyed yourself. It sounds like you stayed in a motel room during your stay. Those rooms are basic and do not offer cooking facilities. Our duplexes and cottages have full kitchens (including microwave ovens), living room, bedroom, bathroom and private patios. The cottages also have... More

We rode our motorcycles out to Borrego Springs over the "Super Moon" weekend. We have been to this little town many times and have stayed at several other hotels in the area. We like to try different places and this was our first time at the Hacienda del Sol. We got one of the "motel" style rooms. There are also... More

We escaped the coastal May Gray and enjoyed a warm relaxing weekend in town. Treat yourself and rent one of the cottages or duplexes (especially if friends stop by!) and make use of the patio & kitchenette, although the local restaraunts are an easy walk, even in the heat. and The pool is sparkling clean and private. The management is... More

I'm so glad you enjoyed our little of paradise. Casitas are perfect for couples, or to use a base camp in conjunction with motel rooms. The fireplaces are a big hit too.... We appreciate your business, and hope to see you again. Tracy & Mark Lyon, Owners More

The Hacienda del Sol totally rocked! Going by the grim photos on the Web site, we weren't expecting much. Boy, were we wrong! Our room (#19) was clean and quiet, with new bedspreads, horizontal blinds, carpeting and all the rest. Plus ... a free San Diego Union-Tribune on our doorstep in the morning! More

Thanks again for coming back to the Hacienda, and also for noticing our improvements. We are trying very hard to breath free life into our beautiful aged lady, while at the same time maintain the 50's flair. Stay tuned for more improvements..... we appreciate your patronage.....

We stayed at Hacienda del Sol the weekend of Mar 30-April 1. We're long-time customers who usually visit in summer. As always, we enjoyed the unpretentious, laid-back atmosphere. The room was clean and comfy and the pool was clean as always and a reasonable temperature. We were in Room 16; I notice another reviewer said they heard a lot of... More

We appreciate your feedback, and for continuing to make the Hacienda your place to stay. My grandparents purchased the Hacienda del Sol about 45 years ago, and we continue to enjoy it to this very day.

Older motel - most with kitchens - many duplex cabins. It is comfortable, spread out and the grounds are great. The furnishings are mix & match, probably all from second hand stores. Important stuff - good beds, clean sheets, nice big towels, are great. The owners host Sat. night margarita parties during the season - which is winter and spring.... More

We spent 2 nights at the Hacienda del Sol in late March 2012. Although located on the main "highway" through Borrego Springs, the property sits on 6 well landscaped acres and our duplex was private and comfortable, the kitchen well equipped, and everything very clean, but basic. The swimming pool was long enough for laps and was beautifully situated and... More
