The service was amazing. The food was great. You get validated parking if you dine here and I would dine here again. The chef gave us so many complimentary dishes which made me realize we should have ordered less dishes. And dare I say it, the kids menu dishes were kind of fire too.

Park Hyatt Aviara host some of the absolute best events! We came out for a wellness and pickleball gathering, and everything was 10/10. The courts are gorgeous, the hospitality was top-tier, and the overall resort atmosphere made for such a fun, refreshing day. If you ever have the chance to attend a wellness or sports event here, don't pass it up!

Just spent the weekend here for the company holiday party. We had a blast and this hotel is top notch. My room, it is just a regular room but everything is well placed and feel exclusives. I can tell they are selective on the hotel staff selection. Alot of them can be models. The service were second to none. After our main party, some of us stayed at the main lobby bar for an after party. We have moved furniture and ordered alot of drinks. When we left, it definitely was a mess. The hotel handled it with ease. When i went back for my breakfast the next day, everything has been cleared up. Bravo. Great experience.

This is such a beautiful resort in Carlsbad! The valet parking guys are so friendly and welcoming. I like the fitness center, they have a lot of Techno gym equipment, including 2 ellipticals and five treadmills, also have free weights and a Smith machine.

My husband and I spent a few nights here for our Babymoon, and it was truly a wonderful getaway thanks to Park Hyatt! The resort was well-kept and beautiful, the rooms were clean, the gym was very well-equipped, but most of all, it was quiet and peaceful with incredible views, just the way we wanted our Babymoon to be. Staff were friendly and nice. Not only did Valet act swiftly when we requested them to park at an EV spot for our car to get charged, it rained during our stay and they offered to loan us their large umbrellas, which was so nice. Our fireplace wasn't functioning properly, so when I called Guest Services, we had maintenance at our doorsteps within minutes. We dined at both Ember & Rye and Ponto Lago. Both were great dining experiences, but we preferred Ponto Lago slightly more. There is a convenience store within the resort, which we used on several occasions to purchase water and coffee. I had one minor incident at Concierge/guest services, which wasn't a big deal, but could've been handled slightly better given this is a luxury resort, after all. I inquired at Concierge to book us spa appointments at Miraval Spa, but the female staff wasn't that helpful. She dialed the Spa, but when they didn't answer after a few rings, she just simply told me to come back and didn't even take down my information to follow up or further assist me. I could've just called the Spa myself while I was in my hotel room. I bothered not to go back, just didn't feel like she wanted to help even though no one was around.

The Park Hyatt Aviara has my heart! I think it is the best Hyatt in San Diego- beautiful sunset views of Carlsbad and a luxury hotel. The service is always good- they always try to upgrade your room as a World of Hyatt Member, and there are always small touches in the room if you are celebrating an event like an anniversary with prosseco, chocolate covered strawberries, or macarons. The hotel property is huge, it's fun just to walk around! When I've stayed here, there is often a conference or Indian wedding occurring so there's always something to see. They have a good number of dining options. The lobby bar (Pacific Point) and pool food (Waters Edge) are fine. The coffee shop inside is good too for a grab and go coffee, but the food is just okay. For dinner, I really liked Ponto Lago and think their dinner is better than Ember & Rye. Ponto Lago's baja style dinner options have all been great. Ember & Rye's steaks have just been okay! The amenities offered were also great- they offer fitness classes, the pool (both adult and family pool) are fun- check out the water slide!! The gym is also very nice with brand new equipment. They offer a shuttle service to take you to the 4 Seasons tennis court and pickleball court which are very nice.

What a beautiful property. We stayed there this past weekend for the second time, and really enjoyed it. Driving up to the hotel entrance, you can already tell it's a posh hotel, and walking into the lobby and seeing the ocean view... Just amazing. The first time we stayed we were upgraded (my wife is a globalist with the Hyatt loyalty program, so free upgrades and free breakfast, very nice perks! ). to a one bedroom suite which was very nice and spacious. This time we weren't upgraded due to a large wedding party, but we still got a nice room with partial ocean view. As a pickleball player, I was able to take advantage of the courts connected to the hotel free of charge (super nice courts). And lastly, the breakfast was very good, with omelet station, a variety of hot items, fresh fruits and pastries, fresh juices and gourmet coffee, all in an elegant dining room. Elegance without snobbery defines the hotel, which is not the norm for high end hotels. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, adding enjoyment to the stay. Highly recommended!

My friend and I recently attended the Carlsbad Wine & Food Festival (Reserve Wine Event) that took place on the beautiful lawn of Park Hyatt Aviara. This hotel was so incredibly beautiful and had a stunning view! The staff were all very friendly and professional. I'll have to come visit this property again and would recommend to my colleagues and friends who visit Carlsbad!

R E A L - H O U S E W I V E S - O F - C A R L S B A D Season 1, Episode 5: "I SAID, WHAT I SAID" [INT. PREMIUM COASTAL SUITE (with a lagoon and coastline view) - MORNING] Sunlight pours in aggressively through the shear curtains. STASSIE, clad in Sweaty Betty glamwear, wants to start the weekend off with a "casual brunch". The other housewives are arriving: BRANDIE (spray-tanned Pilates instructor), CARRIE (former beauty queen turned self-help blogger), and LEXIE (TikTok celeb who checks her socials every 5 minutes). STASSIE (to camera): I invited the girls for a goddess getaway at the finest resort in town for some judgy trauma-bonding. We packed our Hermès, Pradas, and Balenciagas... and of course enough lip-plumper to kill a horse. BRANDIE (cold-hugging STASSIE): "OMG babe, I love what you've done with your look. It's giving... 'divorced but thriving'." STASSIE (eye-roll): "Thanks, Brandie. Cute 2023 Versace dress. Love the 'peacock' colors... But why aren't you wearing undergarments!?! Is it a laundry issue?" LEXIE (walking in waving her phone): "You guys, Brad Pitt just followed me! It's so weird because he only has 15 followers!!" CARRIE (excitedly joining): "Which mimosas are we having: Lychee, Guava, or Lavender?" STASSIE: "Yes. They're bottomless. Like Brandie." [THEY SAUNTER TO THEIR RESERVED TABLE] Brandie said that she deserved a "brunch glow-up" and ordered the Japanese Pork Belly Frittata with Okonomi Sauce. Lexie got the Hong Kong-Style French Toast with Apple-Shiso Jam - but bedazzled it with the gold flakes she had in her croissant-shaped Chanel bag. Stassie and Carrie move some fruit around their plate as they continue to game-plan their weekend. [CUT TO CONFESSIONAL - STASSIE]: "They wanna go check out golf? GOLF? Are YOU deluushnnal?! These golfers so sick of the sh*t-show they just wanna repeat-whack somethin with a stick. And why you evaluatin another man's stroke?" [BACK TO THE TABLE - the mimosas are flowing...] The group is reminiscing about their recent escapades-- like when they accidentally crashed a wedding while making a TikTok. LEXIE: "We were just 'Uptown Funking' on their dance floor! Who knew bridezillas could be so territorial?" STASSIE (looking at phone): "So... I saw that someone here has been liking Greg's thirst traps again. You know, my ex?" BRANDIE (without looking up): "Girl, it's social media. I like everything. I liked a picture of a seal in a bikini yesterday." CARRIE: "Can I please finish my mimosa juice cleanse in peace." BRANDIE: "I liked it before I realized it was Greg. I thought it was a sponsored post for bronzing oil or something. He was hella... shiny." LEXIE: "Honestly, this is why I have trust issues. And Xanax delivery on speed-dial." CARRIE (making prayer-hands): "You should be speed-dialing a therapist, or at least a chatbot." STASSIE (pointing dramatically): "You know what, Carrie? You can take your twisted-up liver and go straight back to 1994. You peaked at that year's Miss Inbred Smackdown!" CARRIE (posing): "How dare you. You are in the presence of Miss Human Wax Figure 2001 and Miss Tasty Taco runner-up of '98, thank you!" LEXIE (benzo-rage): "Why don't you all eat a piece of bread and calm down! Hardly even worth getting myself vassinated to be around you heifers." [PROSECCO TAKES FLIGHT ACROSS THE ROOM] Aimed at nobody in particular, the glass shatters against the wall. The room gasps. A slow drip of bubbly orange juice trails down. Then silence. STASSIE (to camera, deadpan): Brunch is over. [TEXT ON SCREEN]: Next time on Real Housewives of Carlsbad: A goat yoga class goes off the rails. Carrie buys a pair of Herman Munster shoes. Lexie starts a podcast. With Brad Pittman. Pro tip: Park Hyatt Aviara is a Five-Diamond luxury hotel and spa. And for those who enjoy activities where the winner is the one who does the least, the best golf course anywhere. Overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the Spanish colonial style resort is set among 200 lush acres of rolling hills. We enjoy everything about this place but nothing tops their dramatic brunch service.

I booked a cabana for a day via Resort Pass. We got complimentary valet parking upon arrival. The check in process was quick and easy. We got key cards from the reception desk and then went downstairs to the pool area. We were the first ones there and they gave us a cabana right next to the slides when we asked for it. The cabana had a refrigerator and a tv for entertainment. The pool staff brought us complimentary water, soda, fruit salad and chips and guac. We ordered some food and drinks and they were reasonable for a 5-star resort. The staff checked in on us once in a while. Kids were having fun with the water slides (open 11am to 4pm). It was very relaxing by the pool. I would stay here next time for a staycation.

This resort is just absolutely gorgeous. it was very clean and well organized. You can see that so much detail is maintained here to ensure an amazing experience. We valet our car and they took very good care of it. The food was delicious. The gym was very well equipped. The views were beautiful overall wonderful stay highly recommend.

(2/5) We booked a stay at Park Hyatt Aviara and paid for a pool suite upgrade. We agreed to no early check-in and planned our day accordingly. The issue arose when the room was not ready well past the prior guest's checkout window. We were told 4:00 pm, then 4:20 pm, and ultimately waited over four hours beyond the latest checkout time while being repeatedly asked to wait another 20-30 minutes. During this time, our family waited on property with no access to the room and were at risk of missing a 5:30 dinner reservation. We escalated to on-site management and asked for any reasonable service recovery--waiving the upgrade fee, refunding the points used, or offering an alternative. None was offered. Janet who identified herself as manager was condescending, passive aggressive, and seemed to revel in the little sliver of power she'd been granted. What was most disappointing was the lack of flexibility or problem-solving from management despite the significant delay. We were told checkout for the prior guest was 4:00 pm, which conflicted with Hyatt's stated policies, and no reconciliation or accommodation was provided. The property itself is beautiful, but the service recovery and management response did not align with expectations for a Park Hyatt stay, particularly when a paid room category is not delivered within a reasonable timeframe.

Thank you, Leo Carrillo Ranch, for the perfect venue and setting for my daughter Shannon's wedding…read moreon Sunday, November 17th. She and her finacé Seth were wed in front of the well-known pepper tree on the terrace, followed by their reception on the lawn/patio area below. There's really not much I can add that hasn't already been said in the glowing reviews here - the beauty of Leo Carrillo Ranch speaks for itself. I do, however, want to specifically thank our amazing wedding coordinator, Jessica. She has a sparkling personality, coupled with a relaxed demeanor that had a calming effect on the wedding party. We knew from the start that we were in good hands, and everything would run smoothly for Shannon & Seth's special day. And that it did. Jessica guided the groom, bridesmaids, and best man in as the ceremony began, always with a smile on her face. Smiling at my daughter Shannon and me, she cued us in for our walk down the aisle, and we were off. At the conclusion of the ceremony, she began getting the reception up 'n running. This young woman worked hard throughout the entire event, cheerily answering any questions our guests would ask. I can say without reservation that every guest who interacted with Jessica enjoyed their time that much more because of her aplomb and engaging personality. Another standout was Daniel, our bartender. One of the happiest guys I've ever met, he kept everyone's thirst satisfied with his efficient service behind the bar. He loved the string quintet we'd hired to play for the ceremony and during cocktail hour, and clearly loved music in general - he was movin' 'n groovin' to the DJ's dance music once it started up. Though I didn't get the names of all the staff, everyone working the wedding and reception was clearly happy to be there, again making our guests feel welcome. Once again, thank you, Leo Carrillo Ranch!

Kids are welcome, and they have a good-sized kids' menu. My kiddo ordered the pasta shells with both white (Alfredo) and red (marinara) sauce. The shells were large with a thin layer of cheese. I snuck a few bites and thought they were good. We also shared a bowl of clam chowder, which pleasantly surprised me. It wasn't overloaded with potatoes; there was a good amount of clams and carrots. I ordered the Blackened Salmon Burger, which was really good. The aioli paired especially well with the salmon and arugula. My favorite, though, was the Shepherd's Pie. It was packed with all the good stuff and came in a huge portion; I'm already looking forward to the leftovers. The tavern itself had a fun atmosphere. Its high, second-story ceiling made the space echo, so I'm curious what it sounds like when it's busy. There were a couple of TVs with ESPN on for sports fans. My favorite part, though, was the posters with historical facts (after all, it is also a museum) We're already planning a return trip; our experience was just that good. I'd highly recommend stopping by--it's even worth making a special trip for.
