Omni La Costa Resort on Sale?! JUMP ON THAT STAT.

You know I'm not a flash sale or bargain blogger for the most part... but when my favorite place on earth, Omni La Costa (that yes, happens to be 3 miles from my house) goes on sale, I have to share the love. 

Also, it's kinda selfish of me because when you come and stay at Omni La Costa, you will have to invite me down for a glass of wine. See? We all win. 

Also (ssshhh - big secret!) Fall is THE BEST TIME OF THE YEAR to visit San Diego. 

I may have my residency revoked for sharing that with you. But really? It is the most beautiful time of year in San Diego. Imagine... warm, sunny weather and an expansive 400 acre property, complete with two golf courses, the Nation’s #1 Wellness Spa, multiple dining venues (one being Diversions with a massive TV so you don’t miss your favorite game), waterslides, pools and luxurious guestrooms... and THE SPA. OMG THE SPA.

HipMamaB San Diego: Fun Things in San Diego this weekend!

If you live in San Diego, you know our big secret. Summer doesn't really start here until September. That's when the tourists go home, the amusement parks and beaches empty out, and our weather finally gets hot.

But that doesn't mean we don't entertain BIG during the "official" summer months. This weekend is shaping up to be a HUGE weekend for America's Finest City. And while I'll be "feeling 22" at the TSwizzle concert in LA, the rest of you all will be partying hard. 

San Diego Magazine Best of Party:

This Friday, August 23rd join San Diego Magazine as they celebrate the best of our town with the 2013 Best of party. Food, wine, music... this party is a blast. Back in Liberty Station, the 6th annual party is sure to be an amazing time. But HURRY, tickets are almost sold out!!

But if you use promo code HIPMAMAB you can get $10 off each ticket!

 Check out all the fun from last year's event here:

 Last Weekend to see In The Heights starring Jai Rodriguez

If you are looking to add a little music and culture to your weekend, head down to the Lyceum Theatre in Horton Plaza for the final weekend The San Diego Repertory Theatre's production of the Tony Award®-winning musical In The Heights. Set on the streets of the New York neighborhood of Washington Heights, this play is fun musical that follows the lives of the people that work, and live, in this one area of the big city. 

And yes - that is Jai from Queer Eye for the Straight Guy rapping and dancing! I saw the play a few weeks ago and loved the music and the dancing.

HipMamaB Local: DYING TO GO BACK - The New DIVE DayClub Opens Saturday at Harrah's Rincon

Hot sun. Hot pool. And AMAZINGLY HOT drinks... this was a random Wednesday for me a few weeks ago when I got a special sneak-peek at the new DIVE Dayclub opening this weekend at Harrah's Rincon in Valley Center. Yes, I know. I have THE life, right? I will admit that I felt that way sitting with my feet in the cool pool sipping on a cucumber margarita... ahhh, the #bloglife. 

Here are the official details:

Dive Dayclub is the all-new pool scene at Harrah's Resort. Opening THIS SATURDAY JULY 13th is "Adult Swim Saturdays" - a summertime dance party boasting live DJs, hot bodies and cold drinks—Dive is the Vegas-style pool party without the Vegas drive. Adult Swim Saturdays have different guest DJs all summer long - this weekend is DJ Vice and July 20th will feature Lil John! Follow DIVE Dayclub on Facebook for more information on schedules. 

Featuring 21 VIP cabanas, 'ritas cantina, and three pools including the Stage Dive, the (sometimes crazy) Lazy River and SoCal's only swim-up bar, Dive will be THE place this summer. More information, visit: www.DiveDayclub.com.

I honestly can't wait to grab a group of girls, a cabana and a margarita one Saturday this summer... And the best part? They will help you arrange transportation to and from the pool, so you can drink all day and sleep in your own bed that night. 

Who's in?
