This is a great hotel that feels more like a resort. It’s great and we will stay here again. Carlsbad Village is not very close, would need to drive if you want to go there. Great parking garage and valet and the staff were all very nice and accommodating

The location is great. Property is beautiful. The Chandlers restaurant was also great for brunch and drinks in the evening. Unfortunately I booked a standard room and we must have gotten the "expedia special". Our room on the second floor had a roof view with AC units that ran loudly the entire night. So do yourself a favor and book a room with a window to somewhere. And while there is a great coffee station in the am. We seemed to be missing the timing. It is only available 6:30-8am.

LOVELY stay! The balcony rooms are great with amazing sunset views and the heated pool is ACTUALLY heated. Great temperature and we didn't need to adjust to the heated pool at all. The restaurant had great brunch and dinner options--delicious!

My stay was phenomenal. Jania in the restaurant, Chandler's, went above and beyond. She has superior customer service skills that you rarely find. Skills that can't be taught, but come from the heart. Carol in the spa gave the BEST reflxology massage I've ever had. I think she had some Vodo going on. I've never had anything like it
