SAN DIEGO SEASIDE CITIES & RESORTS
Carlsbad

uninterrupted sun-drenched beaches. Shoreline walks offer stunning sunset views with refreshing seaside ambiance.
In the center, Carlsbad Village attractions are cheery and healthy, just short walks to the local pizzeria, Art Foundry, new theater, brewery, wine tasting, antique shopping or fish restaurant, consistently leads to assured satisfying choices.
Courtyard gardens, water fountains and paths frame an allure of Oceana vistas, as one practically inhales a view from the balcony of newly remodeled Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort, located at town center. The lodge features the latest guest room decor directed to fulfilling all quests for paradise in a comfortable room.
