Quick Verdict: San Diego Mission Bay Resort vs Hyatt Regency Mission Bay Spa and Marina

When San Diego Mission Bay Resort wins: Choose this property if you want a family-focused, independent resort with direct Mission Bay beach access, on-property watersport rentals, a Himalayan salt table at Spa Brezza, and a compact, gardened campus that feels more like a bayfront resort than a high-rise chain.

When Hyatt Regency Mission Bay Spa and Marina wins: Choose the Hyatt if you want Hyatt-brand consistency, a larger resort footprint with three outdoor pools (including a waterslide), an on-site marina and a broad set of conference/meeting facilities.

Bottom line: Both are Mission Bay waterfront resorts close to SeaWorld and local beaches; pick San Diego Mission Bay Resort for family-oriented programming, private-beach features and independent-hotel character, or pick the Hyatt for chain-brand amenities, multiple pool options and a full-service marina.
