"The reception staff was very friendly and was easy checking in. Room was very clean, no smell and very comfortable. When asking for amenities the staff was promptly responsive. We ordered from the restaurant, was not disappointed, was delicious. Nice pool area and basket ball court. Great place for kids to hang out. Negatives: if you get a room near the stairs you will hear people walling up and down (all night long). The bathroom shower door was not easy to open did not slide smooth and made a loud noise. Forgot watching TV on down time, very poor selection."

"We enjoyed our two-night stay at this family-focused hotel. We booked last minute and got a first floor patio room with ocean view. We enjoyed sitting on the patio, but next time we would book a higher floor. There will be a next time! Carlsbad is only a hour away from where we live, so it was good for a quick getaway from the heat. It is just steps from a nice restaurant that's been there for 50 years and a quick walk across the highway to sit on the beach (loved watching the surfers). Lots of families book it for a week in summer and that is perfect because Legoland and other attractions are close by. The pool is large and we we enjoyed seeing kids having fun, but maybe not so enjoyable for younger couples. The breakfast was nothing special but very convenient."

"We stayed at the hotel for 4 days with 2 kids. The hotel was spacious and very relaxing. The pools and waterslides were the main attraction! It was a short ride to downtown Carlsbad or Encinitas which offer great dining options. The beaches were also a short ride from the hotel which made for a fun visit! I would say the service was good but not great. The resort was packed on Saturday and the pool area was very busy and they didn’t fully open the restaurant or waterslides until 11am. We also had issues with the google chromecast in the room. But other than that everything was great!"
