    Mosquitoes are currently really active- bring bug spray!

    The hotel staff is friendly and the grounds are kept nice. The resort is family friendly and is the main reason we come back every year. Unfortunately, Hilton has taken over the on-site Clubhouse with their high pressure sales office. Beware when you check- in they will schedule your 1hour "owner update" only to pressure you to buy in to the Hilton points system. Very bad customer service on behalf of the concierge. It is our feeling that they put up a front only to bilk sales for Hilton. We had rescheduled our day (and child missed school) to make sure we would be on time to their "owner update" only to find out they canceled (without any notification) because they "claim" our deeded weeks were bought through a 3rd party (not sure what they are talking about-smh). Very unprofessional and dishonest.

    SO relaxing. walkable distance to the beach that feels semi private. no where we went was crowded so it was nice. keycards to everything so no randos.

    My hubby and I have been HGVC owners since 2015. I'm so stoked that we finally were able to stay at this resort. Overall, our stay was great! Saw some of the feedback that the bed was on the firmer side which was accurate. The pillows though compensated for that so not too bad. I was able to walk to the beach and watch the sunset. I would like to give a shoutout to Joelle, the assistant activities personnel, who was so helpful when I went down to get a Rootbeer Float and making my first tie dye t-shirt. Thank you Joelle! I do like that they have activities throughout the week and even a food truck 2x a week. Hopefully, we can stay here again since it was hard for me to reserve here. This time, I'll bring my kids and have my friends check it out.

    We have been coming here for years around the New Year. The grounds are nice and the beach is close by across the street. We stay in a one bedroom unit. We enjoy the sound of the waves and the view of the ocean. The kitchen is fairly well stocked and large enough to cook a meal. Nice size bathrooms. The resort is pretty close to Hwy 5 and is easy to reach. My only complaint is the beds. They are very firm. Some of the carpets, furniture and kitchen area are starting to look worn. This obviously doesn't prevent us from returning! We will return again next year.

    Beautiful spot, fun little get together in a great area. Rooms were clean, bbq and music at pool.

    They give away FREE refillable margarita at the pool in the afternoon. How smart is that?! Based on the location, amenities, pricing and rest of the accommodation, this is a gem of a resort hotel. Location: right off the 5 hwy and right on the Beach. You can see the ocean from your own room patio. The hotel is located on its own secluded street. It feels very safe. Legoland is 3 minutes away and you get the access all the surrounding stores. Room. Our 1 bedroom room has a fulled stocked kitchen. Everything is clean and look new. TV in both living room and bedroom. Own patio directly facing the Ocean. Comfortable sofa that can be turned into a sofa bed. Parking: Free underground parking. It has enough room for all the guest. Facilities: Id give this an A. 2 pools, tennis court, volleyball court, gym...great looking lobby. I can live here for months. Downside: I only have 2 complaints. No breakfast offering and slow internet. Overall, Great hotel. I would definitely recommend this to friends and family.

    good morning from Carlsbad

    One of the better resorts that's close to the Carlsbad beach. The resort is very conveniently located not too far from the 5 freeway and it's about 5 minutes drive to the Carlsbad Premium Outlet. With its ideal location to everything, the resort is best suited for family vacation. For us, we have kids wanting to go to Legoland and safaris as well as to Seaworld, from this location, all attractions are within 20 minutes drive. There are plenty of activities in the resorts too for both kids and adults. Kids can enjoy themselves with water park activities and game room. For adults, they can enjoy swimming, jacuzzi, biking, fire bound, BBQ and surfing. The rooms are quite new and clean. We had two bedroom suites room where we had a full kitchen and a dining table. We had 7 people for the trip and fitted everyone comfortably. All hotel guests are provided indoor parking and it's secure with gate. Only room keys can open the gate. There are many good restaurants nearby. Many different cuisines catering to varieties of tastes. We enjoyed the Italian restaurant near the pier.

    This place is really special. Perfect for families and easy access to the beach. Staff was incredibly friendly, grounds were clean, and lots to do on site. Some recommendations would be to have easier access to the pool/beach towels. Our room was pretty far from the lobby and walking back and forth to get new towels and return the old ones was a bit of a mission. Most hotels have a station for towels near the pool area. I think you should accommodate this. The Pool area was also very slippery, both my daughter and I fell while just walking. Lastly the family pool was cold and the adult pool was heated. I asked if we could go to the adult pool and the front desk said no. Nobody was at the adult pool and it seems like adults with no kids loved the family pool and spa. It's a bit rude when families can't access the adult area yet adults want to use the family space and talk to minors. Incredibly uncomfortable. Very minor negative things but worth the mention.

    This location is beautiful. It is really close to the ocean, specifically North Ponto Beach. I walked there almost every morning. We stayed on the third floor. The picture I took was from my porch. The single room was spacious and comfortable. The kitchen had everything I needed to cook with, although all I ever made was snacks and a sandwich. The adult pool was heated and open until 10. It was great to not have any kids around when I was trying to relax. The parking deck was easy to get in and out of. You can also park on the street. It is close to a lot of restaurants and a Ralph's grocery store. The staff was friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend this location.

    The stain on the couch I had to take a photo AND walk to the front desk to show it to them. They still didn't want to send someone

    We had to pay a steep price for the resort fees. As timeshare owners who frequently use direct exchange to come to the San Diego area, we're use to resort fees. I am not however accustomed to having to call the front desk everyday because something is broken or wrong! I thought they just completed a remodel?! Opening the door for the first time the whole suite smelled like spoiled hazelnut coffee. The smell was so intense it gave me a migraine for two days. It was all over the couch and they gave me a hard time about having the maids come and clean it because it was after 5pm. We couldn't sit in the living room as a family on our family vacation. The overhead lighting in both rooms wouldn't turn on with the pull switch. Maintenance came and fixed it. Another night my son kept waking up sick. I wanted to move him to the pull out couch so he didn't wake up his sister- the bed was broken and wouldn't open. Perfect. I am currently sitting in my room while the kitchen sink overflows from the garbage disposal. Maintenance has been here about an hour (and counting) already... We still have three nights... at this point I'll be thankful if the fireplace doesnt explode and kill us. Definitely wouldn't recommend it, at least not to anyone I want to have a good time. The location is FANTASTIC but You need functioning and clean rooms. And sadly that has not been my experience. The maintenance staff has been super nice though! We've really gotten to spend some quality time with them.

    Beautiful decor,  simple, fresh,  open with our view of the ocean

    Families! This is what you've always hoped for. Great price for full accommodations, full kitchen, living area, spacious lovely condo retreat. I always appreciate value for families. Right now sitting by the pool under the lovely cabana, while kids are thrilled with the pool and splash area. Our first day here with the families, all "family". The kids had been excited to go to the beach and we will, but they saw the pool and splash and play on the way in and squealed unanimously and in unison, "Pool!!!!". We all know when the kids are happy, we're even happier. Just living the dream in Carlsbad!

    Sealed door

    Great place for a quick getaway from LA! Our group of adults really enjoyed this property as it was across the street from the beach and the adult pool was beautiful! Our room was sealed off to let us know no one had entered. The dishwasher was also full and sealed so you know all the dishes are clean and no one has touched them! Finally I was surprised to find that even the sofa sleeper had a seal on it to show it was cleaned! My only complaint about the room was that the walls within the unit were paper thin and if you are not on the top floor then you'll definitely hear the people above you walking. For me I'm a light sleeper so it made it difficult for me to sleep as I could hear everything from the living room even with the door closed. There are 2 pools, one for adults and families. Unfortunately the hot tubs are closed for safety. But the adult pool overlooks the beach and it makes for a beautiful sunset! Walking across the street to the beach was easy as well and you don't have to worry about parking. The front desk also offers complimentary beach rentals such as umbrellas, chairs, and boogie boards! There is also a nice game room with ping pong, foosball, and arcade games! There is also street parking right outside the units! During the day it can be more difficult to park due to beach goers but if you need an extra spot to park a car there's no overnight parking restrictions. Overall a great stay and very clean rooms! Amenities were a big plus and it's location close to Carlsbad village and the beach made our stay very enjoyable!

    Blocked view of the beach

    We are owners. They did tell us there would be construction however they never said that there would be scaffolding and men walking around, looking into our room. I understand construction and renovations however, this is an invasion of privacy. So we have a 3rd floor room with a view....are we supposed to close our blinds so men don't look into our room? Now the view is obstructed and there is no privacy. It's unfortunate because we have been owners for 10 years and this is how they treat owners? Who pay for all these renovations and upgrades I can't imagine how they treat regular customers. The kicker is no one is willing to do anything about this.

    Gorgeous view from our second-story unit at Seapointe Resort!

    Ask the Community - Carlsbad Seapointe Resort

    Is this walking disrance goin to beach?

    Yes, the resort is across the highway from the beach and is walkable. There is a crosswalk and then you have to walk down a little to the beach. There is a lifeguard station and public restrooms, too.

    Is this resort on the beach?

    All rooms look out AT the beach/ocean, however, Carlsbad Boulevard runs between the resort and the beach. There is a controlled cross walk over to the beach and it is a fairly easy walk!

    Are pets allowed?

    No, pets aren’t allowed. Works for me, I don’t like staying in rooms that have had pets in them.

The hotel is very kid friendly with many pools, water slides, splash pad, and fun kids activities. My toddler was always busy and doing something without complaining!! They also offer free kids activities such as necklace making, ice cream scoops, and much more. The staff is very hospitable and makes sure you have everything you need from the moment you arrive. They are very attentive, respectful, and welcoming. They truly make you feel like you're at home. Our room was located in the newly remodeled villas section, which had its own private pool and jacuzzi. It is away from the main pool area, which was much more quiet and more relaxing. They also have an adult pool in the main pool area, which had a view overlooking the breathtaking golf course. Breakfast at The Vue was pretty solid. The food at the main pool was OK, but the food at the adult pool was even better. Overall, I really recommend this resort if you have kids. It has everything you need and you don't really need to leave the property. Thank you for an unforgettable experience. We will be back!

I believe Daniel was the gentleman who checked us in, and he was so kind and welcoming. Our stay was overall wonderful. The hotel is very contemporary for a beach hotel. The parking ($40/daily) is a bit steep given the base price for the hotel, and I hope down the road they'll update the hot tub section to mirror the beautiful pool area. Overall, I'd stay here again.

    I wanted to love this stay, but it got off to a rough start…read more I received a notification early in the morning that my room was ready, so I checked out of my previous hotel sooner than planned and headed over. When I arrived around 1 PM, I was told the room wasn't actually ready yet but should only be "about an hour." Three hours and several bar tabs later, I finally got access around 4 PM. What made the wait especially frustrating was that I had already checked my luggage with the hotel. Had I known I would be waiting three hours, I could have gone into Carlsbad Village or explored the area. Instead, I felt tethered to the property because all of my belongings were being held by the hotel while I waited for a room that I had been told was already ready. Then came the mystery of the soaking wet carpet. Not a damp spot here or there--the carpet was wet enough that it immediately raised questions about what had happened in the room before I arrived. Given the three-hour delay, my imagination was left to fill in the blanks, and none of the possibilities were particularly comforting. I had also specifically booked an ocean-view room rather than a pool-view room. While the room technically had a view of the ocean somewhere beyond the pool area, it was directly above the pool during a reggae festival weekend. Instead of the peaceful ocean-view experience I expected, I got a soundtrack of reggae and a front-row view of the pool scene. The location is beautiful and the staff was pleasant, but between the inaccurate room-ready notification, the three-hour wait, the soaking wet carpet, and the questionable interpretation of "ocean view," the experience didn't live up to expectations. I just checked in too! I have three more days of this... I used my Amex rewards for nothing.

    Book this beautiful resort via Amex site…read more Located in Encinitas by coast hey 101. 30miles from San Diego. The hotel is sort of the middle of nowhere. The point is for relax and enjoy. Parking: Valet only $60 overnight Concierge and receptionist table is very simple and 1 person helping only, she is Super duper sweet and helpful. She checked us in, and since we booked via Amex, we received complimentary: - Suite upgrades - early check in - guarantee 4pm check out - daily breakfast for 2 - In room wifi - and $150 resort credit apply for restaurant, spa etc. This place has a e-bike, paddle board an surf board for guests to use anytime complimentary. If you happened to stay in 2nd floor, which they only have 3 floors, where Vaga restaurant is, to find your room is kinda tricky. Look at the signage and the room are through the double door, on your left when you face the restaurant. It requires your keycard access to enter through the double door. The room is so relaxing,the vibe is comforting. It has complimentary coffee, nespresso tea and bottle water. You can ask for more water at concierge. Look at the real life I believe eucalyptus stem on top of the shower head, love it. There's also a gym and spa in 1st floor, also access to beach. We asked for recommended restaurant around the area, she gave a 4 pages list of restaurant and little shops 2nd floor - has venue area with spacious gathering area and balcony overlooking the beach. Evening: you can enjoy cocktails on VAGA restaurant overlooking the beach with outdoor fireplace and patio. Fyi: the room has thin walls. We can hear ppl talking, walking, running on hall way every moment. So on our final bill: They comp all our daily breakfast including tips and room service delivery. They automatically deduct $150 resort credit regardless you spend under. It will apply to any other fees. Like it because they don't Knicks pick every single expenses, that shows their reputation and their hotel guests matter over little charges. Overall, love this place. Will definitely come back. Highly recommended.

We picked up pizza and enjoyed dinner on our balcony, while watching the sunset. It was truly a magical beach getaway!

    Overall, we had a nice stay, but there were definitely some areas that need improvement…read more The positives first: check-in was quick and easy, the room was spacious, and I really appreciated that there was no carpet. We appreciated the complementary breakfast. The towels and bedding were clean, and the hotel staff kept providing fresh, clean towels throughout the day, which was a nice touch. The beach attendants were friendly, the hotel provides sand toys for kids, and we really enjoyed the live music in the evenings. The location is excellent and made it easy to enjoy the beach. Unfortunately, the cleanliness of our room upon arrival was disappointing. The toilet seat had what appeared to be blood or feces on it, there was urine around the base of the toilet, which made it seem like the bathroom floor hadn't even been mopped, and there were crumbs and bits of food, along with a few dead bugs, around the beds. Thankfully, I had hand sanitizer with me and cleaned the bathroom before my children used it. A few other things to note: the balcony door was difficult to open, there was no screen door, and the complimentary beach chairs are quite small and may not be comfortable for larger adults. The sheets also seemed too small for the mattresses and kept coming off the corners during the night, which made sleeping less comfortable, no mattress covers. The beach itself is beautiful but fairly small, so it becomes crowded quickly. One suggestion for future guests: please rinse the sand off before you are getting into the pool, I witnessed people rinsing off im the pool after beach then after 2-3 minutes they came out and went upstairs. The pool is not a shower and the sand on the bottom of the pool hurt. Also, once you're finished using the beach loungers, remove your towels instead of leaving them behind. It was difficult to tell which chairs were actually occupied and which were available because many loungers had towels left on them. Overall, this hotel has a fantastic location and several nice amenities, but better attention to room cleanliness and a few small improvements would make a big difference. * also bring water shoes, the rocks at the beach are very painful*

We arrived early,…read moreand although I had chatted on the link with whomever that I wanted to check in earlier the room still wasn't ready. Johnny was the only one at the front desk handling everything when I arrived. He was great, personable and still made us feel welcome. The property is beautiful. The 7 Mile Kitchen has good food, the Grab and Go Gelato and coffee is good as well. Our ponto suite was okay. It was interesting having the "living room" area in a hallway. I felt it was meant for a family with small children. However the beds were comfortable. The next night I spoke with David and Grace at the front desk. They were so kind and approachable. I appreciate it!

    This is the worst Sheraton that I've ever stayed. At first,…read morewhen we checking in, the receptionist told us our room is on the second floor with room number 212*, when we got to the elevator, all the second floor room number start from number 2200. So we need to went back to the lobby to make sure where the room located. Second, they didn't inform us that we will be charged for $10 each day for borrowing microwave. Third, the complementary coffee never been refilled after 10 A.M. the first day, I was there around 9:30 to get some coffee but the creamer was out. So I informed the receptionist name 'Maria' and instead of assisting, she told me to request it to the staff at the restaurant. The second day, I was there around 10 AM and no more coffee. When I asked the waitress at the restaurant, they said the coffee is not meant for hotel guests instead it's for corporate people. Very confusing. Fourth, the cleaning staff didn't really pay attention to the details like shampoo, body wash, bottle water, and tea. I have to called the front desk everyday to asked for the refill. Also there's no signal for Verizon provider so it needs to get connected to the Wi-Fi. I really hope they can be more informative and pay attention to the details in the room.

    I give this place more of a 3.8. We arrived early Saturday hoping to maybe check in a little early…read morethe very nice young lady at the counter was accommodating but said room wasn't ready but for a $50.00 up charge she will put our room at top of cleaning list with house keeping.. Fantastic let's do that. In the mean time feel free to use the pool, bathroom on the left to change. Went the pool. Two pools, not huge but has a little bar. The pool wasn't crowded but we struggled to find a chair that wasn't reserved with a towel; we spotted 1 empty chair under an umbrell, as we approached a young gentleman grabbed the chair at took it across the pool to the umbrella his family was under. Lol. Okay. We just sat our things on the concrete under the umbrella hoping it wouldn't be long and enjoyed the pool. After checking a couple times and our encounter with the OTHER, older front desk lady; our room was ready at 4. That's check in time. The room was large and pretty nice; we did notice the floors were a bit "damp". The little patio with the chairs and view, very nice. We were able to hear the live music coming from marina bar as we were sitting outside of our room taking in the view. We took out a paddle boat that was complimentary at check in. The lake itself is very nice, pretty peaceful considering it sits smack-dab in the middle of a neighborhood. What makes my review a 3.8 isnt the accommodation. Recommended. Its front desk staff, in particular the second one i mentioned. She should enjoy her job more.

Makes the room musty when not cool. 7/10. You are close to the pool so you can hear a lot of noise. Thankfully the curtains are sun and noise blocking if needed. We didn't request an ADA room but got one anyway. Shower head was Kohler, 10/10 but water is so easy to flow into the bathroom floor with the ADA set up. Walls too thin, had to complain about neighbor screaming loud sporadically, playing a game with his kids. They took care of it right away. Parking is fcfs. Coming back after 7pm is a pain. Amenities are wonderful. Coffee place was great, but sometimes the door is locked during hours of operation - you have to check the front desk for service. I would stay here again for the amenities.

Make sure to bring your placard when you check in. Staff was great and responsive. Location is amazing. It is very close to the Carlsbad Outlet, Costco, Windmill Food Hall and other stores etc. It is very centrally located. The unit was well-kept and very, very nice. They also have activities throughout the day and have shuttles driving around throughout the day. Definitely check it out to get familiarized with the layout of the place. And last but not the least.. THE POOL AREA?!! 100/10!! They have pool table, ping pong table etc to play with. They also have a slide, two pools and three jacuzzis.

Before we even arrived, we were contacted about attending a timeshare presentation. I politely declined, but that didn't seem to matter--they called my wife three more times and me twice more. It came off as pushy and honestly pretty tacky before the trip even started. Check-in was another rough start. We got there right at 3 PM, and there were about 10 people in line with only two employees working the front desk. We waited around 20 minutes with two tired, restless kids after a drive from Vegas. What made it more frustrating was seeing multiple employees near the entrance focused on pitching timeshares instead of helping with the line. Upon finally getting our room keys I had the luggage wagon completely packed and was trying to get to the elevator and one of the room cleaners/employees was on their phone and almost ran into me. I said OK thank you excuse me and they said nothing and just walked by me.... For about $250 a night plus parking, it's not the worst place I've stayed, especially in a nice area like Carlsbad--but there were some disappointing details. The sheets in our room had holes in them, which just shouldn't happen at this price point. The pool bar was also severely understaffed--one guy trying to handle everything, leading to long waits. And the prices? $37 for a Fireball shot and a beer... that one hurt, he may have poured and charged me a double I guess but I didn't ask for that. Overall, the biggest issue here is the lack of urgency and customer focus from much of the staff. It felt like the priority was selling timeshares rather than taking care of guests. Unfortunately, I wouldn't stay here again especially since the resort in the same parking lot across the way was way better last year.

    We just wrapped up a family vacation at the Westin Carlsbad Resort and Spa, and we can honestly say…read moreit was one of the most memorable hotel experiences we've ever had. From the moment we arrived, everything was exceptional. We've already booked our return trip next month! The room was spotlessly clean and comfortable, exactly what we want when traveling with kids. We dined at 20 | Twenty and loved every bite -- great food, wonderful service, and relaxing atmosphere. The pool bar was wonderful as well. But what truly set this stay apart was the staff. The service throughout the hotel was warm, attentive, and genuinely caring. Julian at the front desk deserves a special shoutout -- he was an absolute gem. He went above and beyond to make our kids feel special, folding paper airplanes for them and taking the time to truly connect with our little ones. It's rare to find someone who brings that level of heart and enthusiasm to their work. Our kids haven't stopped talking about him! In fact, they were very sad to leave the hotel because of him. Julian's manager also checked in to make sure our stay was going smoothly, which showed just how much this hotel's leadership cares about its guests. The Westin Carlsbad isn't just a hotel -- it's the kind of place that turns a vacation into a cherished family memory. Highly, highly recommended. We can't wait to come back!
