Great day. Wonderful staff. Free parking. Unfortunately the smell was off putting

The location was wonderful. The breakfast was perfect.

The rooms were spacious and unfortunately smelled like mildew. But that’s what you get for being next to the beach.

Would definitely recommend

Great location across from beach close enough to all shops and restaurants to walk nice pool and hot tub area. Quite atmosphere within the property but loud and bustling right outside…not a party room type of place but excellent if you want to go out to have fun and come back to relax and get out of the chaos…

We had a great time in Carlsbad with my daughter and grandkids! The resort was walking distance to everything!

It was in a great location and parking was free!

Felt a little outdated but it was nice and clean!

7.0 / 10.0

Overall we had a nice stay except for the bad smell from our AC

Close access to beach

Our AC smelt bad similar to a strong marijuana smell. The staff came in and changed the filter which helped some but it still smelt. Because of this we weren’t able to run the AC most of our visit.

Location was really nice.

It was okay there were oranges that had molded…

Breakfast was decent, location was perfect

More chairs and items needed for the beach

10.0 / 10.0

Great location. Breakfast lady so sweet always smiles and says good morning and have fun

Location easy to get to restaurants and shops. They should put a railing on the slope going down to the beach for the handicap people.

No safety lock on door. Magnifying mirror no longer there. Air conditioner very loud can’t hear the tv and it wakes you up. The car and motorcycle noise really bad. It used to be controlled. No police patrolling. People smoking marijuana smoking in beach bathroom and by the pool at Tamarack resort. Employees should park far from the elevator.

8.0 / 10.0

Stay here frequently as the Ocean View rms unsurpassed in the area. Choose between the view vs noise

Ocean view room Clean and spacious w ocean view balcony. Comfortable king bed Refer, Micro, Coffee maker

Excessive traffic noise despite posted noise ordenance. (Ocean View Units) Local motorist with loud pipes aparently enjoy hearing them reverberate against the buildings along the blvd. Subsides 2 hrs after sunset. Once a Full breakfast pre Covid, the "Free Breakfast" now a mere continental w/ waffles. Meh!

8.0 / 10.0

Enjoyed our time at the Tamarack.

I have visited this location multiple times over the years and have consistently enjoyed my stay. The setting is picturesque, situated directly across from the beach, and there are several restaurants within a short walking distance. Overall, the location is outstanding.p

The young man who assisted us during check-in left much to be desired. His demeanor was somewhat distant and unapproachable, which created an unwelcoming atmosphere. In contrast, our interactions with the other staff members were consistently positive; they were friendly, polite, and eager to please.

8.0 / 10.0

Rest over from long UK flight.

On coast road giving access to the Pacific Highway. Handy stop over having flown into San Diego late afternoon from the UK.

Nothing to dislike for me I found that what I selected it for was delivered.

7.0 / 10.0

Comfortable, convenient and good value.

The location was fantastic. In walking distance of the village and directly across from the ocean. Underground parking included with the room is a great benefit!

It is an older property. Well maintained and clean but the rooms lacked space for clothes if the stay is longer than a couple days.

10.0 / 10.0

Last year we booked three nights. This year we booked four nights. Weve already booked a week for 2026

The Tamarack is spotless. It is so clean. The staff is very professional. The location couldn't be better for accessing exercise and restaurants. We only used our car to go play golf. Even though Highway 1 runs by, it gets quiet at night, as long as the room fan is on. We loved our ocean view patio. Beautiful sunsets. Underground parking is easy. We've already booked next year!

Occasional daytime speeding motorcycles. Until bedtime it sometimes sounds like a "cruising" street. Police Dept should patrol regurally.

Awesome experience - Great Hotel/Location- Will Return

Breakfast was good … “just enough” to start the day… Friendly staff member making waffles and bacon, coffee…. Other options: yogurt, various cereals, pastries, juices and fruit.

No complaints

5.0 / 10.0

Good and bad as we got little sleep due to uncomfortable beds and noisy air conditioner.

It was spotless; great location; great breakfast and pleasant staff.

The beds. Very uncomfortable so ordered a cot which was worse. The air conditioner was so loud we couldn’t use it so had to leave the door open.

8.0 / 10.0

Really enjoyed staying here and would like to come back. The location on the edge of the village just can’t be beat!

Perfect location

Strange that they had sausage and or bacon at Continental breakfast but no eggs. Maybe something to do with the high cost of eggs these days. Anyway, it was described as a continental breakfast after all.
