We've stayed in Carlsbad many times but this resort was at the heart of the city. Very close to restaurants and shopping. The view from our room was spectacular and right above the beautiful flower fields. The resort amenities were what I expected with a great pool area and fitness room. My husband and I played ping pong one afternoon... More

So I stood in the 3 bedroom villa and it was beautiful and had an amazing view! We were checked in a little later than expected which had a few of us waiting around after a long day at the beach . Other than that it was great, we were right by the family pool which was awesome and right... More

We stayed at this hotel for an overnight trip to Legoland (which is just across the street) and was very pleasantly surprised with the hotel. I wasn't expecting much based on reviews I had read plus the fact that we really got a good rate. The hotel was very clean, very child friendly and was quiet. They had a lot... More

My husband and I needed a place to stay for one Friday night in the Carlsbad area -- a challenge, because most hotels require two-night stays on weekends -- and were happy with our choice of the Grand Pacific Palisades. Our Deluxe King room ($159) overlooked the parking lot, but we spent so little time there that we didn't mind.... More

We had a great time at the Palisades! We were able to walk to Lego Land, short drive to the outlets, In and Out was around the corner and the beach was down the street too. Our room over looked the ocean and the field of flowers - beautifu! It was a great time and a wonderful place to stay.

Our recent stay was our 2nd visit to this property, the 1st being in 2010. It is still beautiful and extremely comfortable. The 2 bedroom suite is very spacious and very attractively decorated. The kitchen is outfitted with everything one might need for a short stay with plenty of dishes, pots & pans, pot holders,kitchen utensils, soap, place mats, etc.... More

I took a mini-vacation (from LA) with my 80 mother and 4 year old daughter, with the main goal of doing two days at Lego Land. My mother and daughter took the train down to Oceanside (I drove) and then we headed for the hotel. It is about 6 miles from the train. We had two rooms on the first... More

We checked in on a Late Sunday night, front desk was attentive and professional. Everyone was super friendly; from the bell man/ shuttle driver ( to Legoland ), front desk all the way to the housekeepers...... They made the experience feel 1st class. We went to Legoland and the Music Museum right down the street as well as Sea World... More
