Great experience! Booked a 3 day trip to Carlsbad and had a room with a partial view of the ocean and it was lovely!! Hotel was clean, staff was friendly, amenities were offered such as a continental breakfast each day, pool, jacuzzis, games, beach equipment available on a first come first serve basis based on quantity available. (Chairs, umbrella, volleyball, boogieboards) and a recreational room with nightly activities set up by staff for onsite entertainment. Within walking distance to the beach, local restaurants, and local shopping in the Carlsbad village. Underground private parking was also available and is gated. overall, the stay was a great experience and we would love to be back soon for another visit!!
