'This oceanfront sanctuary sits perfectly positioned between San Diego's energy and Orange County's charm, offering direct beach access to one of California's most pristine coastlines.'
What's Special?
The resort features the region's only oceanfront spa with treatments utilizing locally-sourced sea salt and kelp. The property's eucalyptus grove creates a unique microclimate, while the adjacent Agua Hedionda Lagoon serves as a protected habitat for rays, sharks, and over 180 bird species. The hotel's signature restaurant sources ingredients from Carlsbad's famous flower fields, which bloom in technicolor stripes each spring.
WhatAHotel! Pro-Tip: Book a lagoon-view room on the east side for stunning sunrise views over the water, and time your visit during March-May to witness the world-famous Carlsbad Flower Fields in full bloom just minutes away.
Don't Miss
Take the resort's complimentary beach cruiser bikes along The Strand for car-free coastal exploration, or venture to nearby Legoland California - the only Legoland on the West Coast. The Thursday evening beach bonfires offer s'mores while watching surfers catch the last waves of the day at Tamarack Beach.
