Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort

Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent
"The rooms were very clean, the staff is outstanding, so nice and accommodating. Loved all the extras at the resort also, such as; live music on the lawn, afternoon lunches, scavenger hunts and crafts. Great restaurants in close proximity. I almost want to buy a timeshare there just to enjoy this amazing place time after time.."
