Beautiful location for a fun hotel with all the comforts of home!

Location, cleanliness, staff, and theme.

I wish the rooms had microwaves and creamer for the coffee maker in the room.

Great off season deal and perfect weekend beach getaway!

This is the perfect location for a beach getaway! The beach is steps from the hotel and they provide towels, chairs, etc. The hotel itself feel like you are in Hawaii with the lush landscaping and decor. This was a wonderful place and we will definitely come back.

The only problem was our smoke alarm went off and the staff had to come back twice to fix it. They were super friendly and apologetic and it was not a huge deal.

The staff was very nice. The location great but did not enjoy the amenities.

Near town and ocean

Window on Main Street street level Unable to have natural light in the room. The blind was not acceptable. It should have been a lover shade that could be adjusted accordingly. No hair dryer in room No closet TV hard to program, or figure how to get local channels I ended up using my phone. It was very slow to react to changes of channels

Loved it , will be back

What a cute perfect property and just a min walk to the beach it’s beautiful it’s was perfect for my work stay and my family stayed and enjoyed the stay very much , love the Hawaii theme and that Thers no one above you and I little kitchen, we had all we needed. ,

One thing I recommend is bring you own pillows that’s the one thing we all wished we done , and extra blankets for those of you who get cold ,

Location, comfort and price

7.0 / 10.0

We may stay here again due to the staff and proximity to a lot of things.

Proximity to the beach and restaurants

Rooms need alot of updating and mold needs to be taken care of.

10.0 / 10.0

We will be back again. Probably a sisters trip too. Girls weekend would be so fun too.

The ocean view room was beautiful. Loved the sound of the waves at night and the ocean breeze. Watching people laughing, as they went down to the beach was so enjoyable. Breathtaking sunsets from our balcony. The grounds were so pretty and we love the pool and jacuzzi. We met so many people.

We loved it all. I would maybe suggest a hook on the back of the bathroom door probably.

10.0 / 10.0

Absolutely had a wonderful time in Carlsbad. This is the only place that I would choose to stay.

Location, friendly staff, clean.

I like everything about this property

6.0 / 10.0

It was ok

It is close to the beach which is essentially what we pay for.

Quite frankly, the cleanness needs major work. Found dirt, sand, and hair on beds, showers, and couches. Not really worthy of the price charged.

3.0 / 10.0

Not worth the price

We loved the landscaping and grounds. The proximity to downtown and shops is perfect. The beach is also steps from the resort.

The AC is terrible. Didn't reach the bedrooms. The fan in the bathroom sounded like a plane landing. The parking is atrocious. Had to circle the block numerous times to find a spot. A guest threw up in the pool so we were unable to use it. When addressing the situation with the front desk we were treated like we were the ones who threw up in the pool. RUDE FRONT DESK!

8.0 / 10.0

Staycation

Great location and tropical landscaping. Room had most things you need except bottled water, a microwave or creamers for coffee in-room, however all were in the lobby/guest ‘canteen’ which was conveniently near our room. I was surprised to find there was a heated pool and hot tub, as our goal was beach time, riding bikes, and dining out in Carlsbad. The patio area with lots of seating and evening fire pits is nice too.

Such a cute place but it’s a super noisy building with very thin walls/ceilings. It’s not that the streets are loud, it’s other guests just doing basic things and we were by the interior parking area. I sleep in earplugs and with closed windows. Even so, other guests start making tons of noise and banging around from 5am onward, someone literally banging on our ceiling on Sunday morning, maybe a kid with a hammer? Non-stop barking dog for 2 hours on Sat morning 7-9am. We got a dogsitter and left our dog at home. I’d never inconvenience an entire hotel to avoid paying a petsitter just to leave it barking when I went for breakfast. Bed mattress wasn’t as plush/pillowtop as most hotels. All in all, though, we had a lovely staycation, enjoyed the heated pool, and continental breakfast.

A fantastic hotel right by the beach.

Location- next to the beach and a short walk to the shops/ restaurants. Room- exceptionally clean and comfortable. Hotel grounds are well looked after. Staff- all polite and friendly. Would highly recommend this hotel.

This resort was perfect for my family and in a great location.

The location of this resort is absolutely perfect! It is close to the beach and great walking distance to Carlsbad Village. The “Luxury Mini Suite” was perfect for my family of 4. We did not eat in the suite but it did a have a small variety of cookware so you could if you wanted. The breakfast bars, fruit, and juices provided every morning were great. We also really enjoyed the coffee! Although we did not use this, it was nice knowing they had beach chairs, umbrellas, and toys you could use for the day. We did take advantage of the beach towels though. Overall this resort was perfect for my family. We definitely hope to be back.

8.0 / 10.0

Warm, bright and comfortable stopover in Carlsbad.

Attractive, clean, cozy property with friendly staff, in the perfect location right across from the ocean. The freshly ground coffee & continental breakfast added a nice touch. The hotel was able to accommodate our early check-in request and the bed was very comfortable. There is no onsite restaurant but it’s walking distance to everything in Carlsbad village.

The A/C was quite loud. Also some kids nearby were yelling and stomping around outside, but what can ya do, it is a popular family vacation area.

Relaxing and enjoyable.

We have stayed at Ocean Palms Beach in prior years and have always enoyed the closeness to both the beach and the village downtown.

Nothing major. I do wish they subscribed to the MLB channel as the cable was pretty limited.

Everything about it! Like your own little paradise at the beach. Love the grills, fire pits and decor.

Wish the fire pits could Have been turned on when we asked because it was cold.

Not worth the money.

It was a good location

Not worth the money. There was no parking even though parking was advertised. Also breakfast was included but it was packaged cookies. The mattresses were ridiculously hard, mold in the showers, windows were not all operational.

No parking places

3.0 / 10.0

Glad it was a short stay.

Cute landscaping and torch lighting at night. Nice Firepits. Close to Beach.

Rooms were centered around pool that had a million kids in it and the hot tub, making the hot tub unappealing for adult use. Our neighbors partied all night (still up talking with music at 4 am). Bedrooms were quiet thankfully. Parking was difficult due to the beach traffic. Continental breakfast consisted of good starbucks coffee - but the food was all processed donuts and muffins etc in pre-sealed bags -ugh.
