The room was very small. That's OK, but it did not have a chair and the bench they provided was very uncomfortable. There were no toilet rolls and I had to ask for them; first time it happened to me.

When we travel to San Diego, we always stay on Shelter Island because we like the area. The staff was very friendly and helpful. For the price, Kona Kai is not worth the amount of money you pay to stay there. The resort was nice, but the cost of the rooms and resort fees are excessive. I believe the other hotels on the island are just as nice and far more affordable. Other issues: the bar at the adult pool closed at 5pm on Thursday, the hair dryer in our room was sticking with hair on it, the bathroom door was a barn door and did not lock- very little privacy, and the room was a bit dusty. My family enjoyed the fire pits at night fall and our view of the marina was nice.

  • British Airways - 13 flights to Encinitas per month

What is the best airport to fly to in Encinitas?
San Diego Intl. Airport (SAN) is the city's major airport, so your only tough decision will be the window seat or the aisle seat. The center of Encinitas is approximately 25 miles away and where many travelers base themselves.
How much is a flight to Encinitas?
Plenty of excellent deals were up for grabs this week, with round-trip flights to Encinitas ranging between $38 and $79. But it was travelers starting their trip from Denver (DEN) who scored the best bargains. One-way flights to Encinitas started at a low $19.
How to book the cheapest flight to Encinitas?
Picking up cheap flights to Encinitas is as simple as booking with Orbitz. But if you want to make sure you're grabbing the best flight deals around, here are some tips worth following:

  • Consider taking off from or landing at nearby airports for a cheaper fare. Enter your preferred departure and arrival airports in the form fields, then select the 'Nearby airports' function below. It will list your options, if any.
  • If your plans aren't set in stone, click on the 'Show flexible dates' option to compare flight deals for alternative departure dates. Go with any suitable cheaper fare that pops up.
  • Select 'Show options' to narrow down your search results. You can choose your preferred airline and seating class here. Under 'Sort & Filter' to the left, you can even select whether you want to fly in the morning, afternoon or evening.
  • Book as soon as you've figured out your travel dates. While you can get lucky once in a while, tickets rarely fall in price as your departure date nears.
  • Consider combining your hotels, flights and car rentals into a package deal to make your budget go even further.
  • If you can, avoid flying in high seasons. Airfares are usually at their most expensive during summer, school breaks and around other vacation times like Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas.

  • Take some activities to keep you amused on your trip to Encinitas. Books and electronic devices like tablets and e-readers are ideal. Be sure to take a water bottle as well. Even on short flights, it's important to keep hydrated.

  • A lot of low-cost carriers have terrific business-class seating for a wallet-friendly price.
  • Make a bid for an upgrade. Some airlines hold online auctions that let you offer a price for a seat up the front. You can also try upgrading with points earned through a flight rewards program.
