Incredible
This was my daughter’s 7th birthday weekend and I chose these hotel because it was the closest walk to legoland. On maps it said it was a 7 minute walk but it is literally across the street and there is an access door, so in reality it was more like 4 minutes. I had seen pictures online but they didn’t do this resort the justice it deserved. It is incredible with beautiful views. The staff is amazing and so eager to help with anything needed. We arrived at 11am and check in wasn’t till 4. I didn’t plan on checking in but wanted to ask front desk if we could park there so we could just walk to legoland and to my surprise the girl said a room was ready and we could check in (5 hours early). The property and rooms were incredibly clean, heated pools, kids water pad, arcade, ping pong, bbq grills, well stock lobby bar, dvds, game boards, fire pits, gym, and I know I am missing so many other things, but as a father and husband, I strongly recommend. I have definitely found a resort that I am looking forward to returning.

Great location, but cleanliness of room is ok
Great location and amenities. The following needs improvement: More towel hooks in the bathroom needed, cabinet pulls were dirty, all the cereal bowls still smelled of raw eggs even after dishwashing them all before use.

4/10 Fair

The place was dirty and not well maintained. The outside floors were cracked and worn out. Facility showed that it is old and not well maintained. The shower was cold and did not warm up at all.

This was the perfect location for our trip to Legoland and the Music Museum. We loved the city of Carlsbad and drove to meals at the beach only a 10 min drive away. We also went to the market and it was very close. We walked to Legoland. The room was large, the kitchen fully equipped and the facility (pools, resort) was excellent. Highly recommend this hotel.

We loved our room! Very clean and seemed recently updated compared to other hotel villas we’ve stayed at recently! It’s walking distance to Legoland and saved us $35 in parking! We were a little disappointed in the kids/family pool area. The tables were all dirty with food crumbs and bird poop and the concrete needed to be swept or power washed.
