Staff was extremely helpful in solving our double booking reservations. Michele was the best. Will definitely come again. Brought our cousins over who will definitely stay at beach terrace for their next getaway. Same w my daughter and son-in-law for their next getaway. Breakfast was amazing and the view from our bedroom and balconey fantastic. The sound of the waves crashing lulled us to sleep each night! A ten out of ten!!

We loved our stay at Beach Terrace! My husband and I stayed there with our two children in January 2026. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. The beach valet was such an awesome perk! Our kids loved playing with the beach toys and it was so nice to have somewhere comfortable to sit with the chairs and umbrella. It did seem like there weren’t many other children at the hotel the same time as us, hopefully we didn’t kill the vibe for the other guests. The hotel and its views are beautiful. Highly recommend!

The breakfast was a nice surprise - a variety of tasty things to try including fresh fruit and bakery items. Although we had an issue with our shower, it was fixed in good time. Our room was spectacular - spacious and we loved the view of the pool. customer service was excellent.

What a cute little spot right on the ocean! It was very clean and just what we were looking for. The staff was great. My daughter left a stuffed animal in our room and they mailed it to us without me asking them to. Super cool of them to do that.

If you’re looking for a luxurious yet comfortable sleepy beach town feel with the sand and the waves just steps from your door, this is your spot. From the gourmet breakfast offered in the morning to the yoga mats and other amenities included in the room and on the beach, you cannot go wrong. Don’t miss the sunset with a hot apple cider and a warm Mexican blanket courtesy of the property. If you’re looking for a nice long walks along a beautiful coast with a brief of pelicans gliding across the waves and the sea spraying its waves, the sea foam seasoning by your feet. This is it. Your are steps away from Carlsbad Village, where you will find a great chill California vibe with healthy food options, and nice local shops. December is ideal to visit as the morning coffee walk requires a jacket and by 10 you are on the beach in flip flops takingbinbthe warm sun. The entire staff was incredibly kind and courteous. Amanda was especially helpful and it was lovely to see her in the mornings. Would definitely come back and I don’t often do that.
