I'm the founder of lajollamom.com, a Virtuoso travel advisor in La Jolla, and the person behind every review here. I genuinely love a great hotel, and I've built my career around getting people into them with more in their pocket.
San Diego is home (16+ years in La Jolla), and I know its hotels better than anyone covering them. I've stayed across the county and I'm on a first-name basis with the teams who run them. Add years living at Four Seasons Hong Kong and in London, plus a long list of VIP programs, and you get a level of access and firsthand detail no one else offers.
