This Carlsbad resort offers accommodation with fully-equipped kitchens and kitchenettes. Two outdoor swimming pools, restaurants and a health spa are located on site. LEGOLAND California is 6.4 km away.

Receptionist Maykala and her manager (sorry we didn’t her/his name)went above and beyond to find us a room near the restaurant and swimming pool. It made our stay meaningful. Alex the restaurant manager is very attentive and made sure my wife’s birthday brunch was set properly with all the changes we made. He also personally came to our room to make sure our in villa dining experience and everything we ordered was delivered. Emily is wonderful and did her best to accommodate all of us during our brunch. We will be back soon and we highly recommend to stay here

Directly across from the beach, this Carlsbad resort boasts family and adult outdoor pools, 2 hot tubs, tennis courts and spacious condos with fireplaces. LEGOLAND California is 10 minutes’ drive from this resort.

Absolutely loved this place. I only stayed for 1 night but wouldn't have minded a second night. The room was very big and you had everything you need. The beds were fantastic, the blankets and pillows were perfect. The staff was super friendly and made you feel really comfortable. The arcade room was fun, played some games. Parking system was very clear and lots of parking was available. Would 100% book this again!

    We love the close vicinity to the beach, walking distance to great restaurants, & shopping. The room was a perfect size for our family of 4. Clean with a great vibe. Staff is friendly & helpful. We appreciated that we were able to get beach chairs for the resort. We have found our new favorite place to stay in Carlsbad!

    Beautiful location, walking distance to Legoland, and close to many conveniences and sights. Very family oriented, which suited our needs. There js a pool for kids and one for adults, a small game room, laundry, BBQs etc. It’s some sort it hotel/timeshare resort hybrid. Our room was nicely updated, and clean. A free shuttle to close by locations is offered, which was useful to us since we came without a car. The walking path behind the hotel that overlooks the ocean and the seasonal flower fields was a great bonus.

    Great location if you are visiting Legoland. The hotel gives you access to the back entrance of legoland which with some planning helps cover major rides before the crowd from the general entrance makes its way. The area has some nice resorts. The lobby and common area was clean and very well maintained. The room has microwave, cups and basic silverware which was very helpful.

    On the premises of the Omni La Costa Resort, so if that is where you are going the location is perfect. If it is not, I would find somewhere else
