DoubleTree by Hilton San Diego - Del Mar

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff and great beds. Enjoyed our stay"

Cape Rey Carlsbad Beach, a Hilton Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay at the Cape Rey Carlsbad Hilton resort. My main concern always is cleanliness and our room was super clean. I was very comfortable being there for 4 nights. The property in general is very clean and attractive. The pool area was really nice and we loved having poolside food and drink service. Each day they had a different treat such as sno-cones, cotton candy, etc. We were always able to find lounge chairs and the towels and iced drinking water were plentiful. The restaurant served delicious food. There is indoor and outdoor seating. We got our breakfasts to go and brought to our room. There’s a coffee station as well. We used the valet parking and our car was always quickly available. The beach is right across the street beyond an rv park. The best thing about the resort was the staff! Every single person we encountered was friendly and helpful, and made us feel like they were happy to help us. We will definitely stay there again!"

Omni La Costa Resort & Spa Carlsbad

10/10 Excellent

"The room was a great size with a separate bedroom area. The bathroom and shower were perfect for the family. We spent most of the time at the splash zone pools where the small water slide was where our daughter was enjoying most of her time. The restaurant and marketplace were great and the ice cream was delicious! Highly recommended for families with children."

The Cassara Carlsbad, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"The property is really wonderful if you're visiting Carlsbad area. It is well located, close to Legoland , and Carlsbad village is only 5 minutes away. The pool is clean and quiet, the breakfast is excellent and the rooms are spacious and nice. Our new favorite!!"
