That mentality has continued to Willows Hotel & Spa as well. Additionally, while many of us do enjoy some poker or a few pulls on the slot machines, Viejas has always felt different. it's Adults Only, it's All Suites, and while it is obviously owned and operated by the Viejas Band of Kumeyaay Indians - it feels like a resort you'd expect to find in Scottsdale or even Vegas. While there are many casino resort hotels close to San Diego, there are a few things that really makes Willows Special. Oh yeah, and there's also some of the best outlet shopping in San Diego. It's the perfect distance from downtown, easy to get to, and delivers a full suite of luxury, spa, pool, food, and all the action you'd expect from a casino resort. However, from the brief time we did spend on property and our stay in one of their Escape Suites, this is the perfect destination for anyone in San Diego that is looking for a getaway where there will be no kids. We were on hand this week for the opening of Willows Hotel & Spa, but I look forward to being able to return to fully experience the resort - especially the spa, pool deck, and restaurants on our own.
