This was without a doubt the best vacation experience I have ever had. My wife and I took my mother and sister with us on an eight day vacation to escondido and stayed at the Welk Resort. We were never so satisfied as the way we were treated...excellent customer service and just a wonderful facility, and we enjoyed playing at... More

We exchanged through Interval Internat'l and were not disappointed. We used the TripAdvisor to pick our section, Melody Hills. Others have described this adequately and pictures let you know how spacious this 2 bedroom villa is. If you are concerned about steps...call a few weeks ahead and ask for one with no steps....limited villas. It doesn't matter if you take... More

My husband and I traveled to the Welk resort mid april 2012. The weather was incredible. I guess coming from Canada we are not too picky! The room was one of the best we ever had. We had a 2 bedrooms that we got through Interval. I had requested a top unit to have cathedral ceilings and nobody walking on... More

We rented a villa at Welk's Resort near San Diego, CA through a timeshare exchange with Interval International. It is actually located about 45 minutes from San Diego near Escondido. It is easy to get to by freeway from San Diego. We stayed in a very nice 2 BR villa for one week. Our family found plenty of activities both... More

We are staying at the Welk Resort in Escondido, Checked in and was sent over to the welcome people. We told them we were not interested in a tour that we were on an exchange. The staff had no use for us when I told them that. We were on our own to find our unit. Not surprised at this... More

We've stayed at this resort in the past and always enjoyed our time. The older "Resort Villas" are our favorite because they are so spacious and many are right on the golf course. We were pleasantly surprised to see the renovations completed on the villas. All new floor tile, bath tile, kitchen granite and tile made the villa look and... More

My wife and I are from MN and stayed at this resort for 1 week (early in May). Unsure of what to expect we ended up being very impressed. The grounds are beautiful. The resort is truly in the mountains and our room had a great view (Ironwood building in Villas on the Green). We overlooked the golf course and... More

My wife and I are always satisfied with the condition of the rooms and resort in general. Rooms are clean and the views from the Mountain Villas are breath taking. The Canyon Grille on premises is a good option for dining. Grandkids love the pool and recreation amenities. We love the farmer's market on Monday's.
