TJ's Shop Local Series: The Club at San Diego Mission Bay Resort in Bay Park 

Meet Shari Stauder, Director of Membership Sales at The Club of San Diego Mission Bay Resort in Bay Park

As a resident of San Diego for over 20 years I can honestly say I drive past this resort almost daily. And a homeowner and REALTOR® living in Mission Bay Park, I literally see this resort daily from our neighborhood views. I'm talking about the  San Diego Mission Bay Resort!

We have "staycationed" here and we've had many family and friends vacation here over the years. It's one of our favorite places to hang out as locals.  Recently, I learned of The Club at  San Diego Mission Bay Resort and so I called up my friend Shari Stauder, Director of Membership and asked her to sit down for a chat so we could spread the word about The Club.

Describe your business

We are a premiere San Diego Resort, located on picturesque Mission Bay! San Diego Mission Bay Resort, where we invite you to indulge in the sun, sand, and so much more located in the heart of San Diego. Here you’ll enjoy waterfront dining, endless outdoor activities, luxurious spa treatments, poolside relaxation, and – best of all – proximity to everything you could want to do in our vibrant city.

WHAT IS SOMETHING MOST LOCAL SAN DIEGANS WOULD BE SURPRISED TO KNOW ABOUT THE RESORT?

The Mission Bay Resort has a private CLUB, which is available to locals who want to enjoy our facilities, just like they are on vacation in their own city! Locals join the club and pay monthly dues to enjoy a multitude of items including: Tennis & Pickleball, Yoga, Pools & Hot tubs, Fitness Center, Family Activities, along with discounts at our Restaurants, Bars, The Spa, Water Sport Rentals, overnight Rooms, and even One FREE Night Per Year! Not only that, some locals are surprised to know that you need not be a Club member or overnight guest to come by anytime to enjoy our restaurant/bars and listen to the nightly live music!

WHAT WOULD YOUR GUESTS AND CLUB MEMBERS SAY THEY LOVE MOST ABOUT THE MISSION BAY RESORT?

They often say it feels like they got away on a fun and relaxing vacation filled with amenities designed to either pamper or entertain and they never had to leave San Diego to enjoy this experience!

What are your goals over the next year?

We'd love to have more locals come try The Club and consider membership so they can experience all these wonderful staycation perks!

What do you love most about the neighborhood?

I personally enjoy the fact that I can enjoy walks along Mission Bay on my breaks and cross the freeway to enjoy the many shops, restaurants and businesses on my lunch hour or after work.

What are your favorite restaurants in the neighborhood?

I shop at Sprouts for lunch and groceries sometimes and enjoy places like Luce and The High Dive on Morena Blvd.

What is something most people don't know about you?

I've been with the San Diego Mission Bay Resort for over 11 years because I truly enjoy working here, the staff and our wonderful guests!

Why do you think it's important for people to shop local?

Supporting each others businesses is great for the community at large. If the businesses in Bay Park thrive, our neighborhood becomes a sought after place to open new businesses that support and serve our neighborhood/community. It's nice having all the services you need so close to home, especially as traffic increases on the roads.

Anything exciting going on that customers should know about?

YES! Our Let’s Cross-Sell Opportunity for Bushiness Owners - especially REALTORS® selling in Bay Park and beyond!
