Top North Beach Hotel Reviews

The Encinitan Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean & spacious for my family of four. Breakfast was a nice added touch for a snack & a coffee. The pool was well maintained & a comfortable temp."

Omni La Costa Resort & Spa Carlsbad

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our time at the Omni La Costa. Room was clean, pool was a lot of fun for the kids. We all enjoyed the food and drinks at the pool. Check in was later than expected / advertised (almost an hour and a half after advertised, and we had to check in multiple times on if the room was ready). We’ll absolutely return."

The Seabird Ocean Resort & Spa, Part of Destination Hotel by Hyatt

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at the Seabird Hotel and would definitely come back. The hotel is incredibly kid-friendly, making it a great choice for families. Everything was clean and well maintained, and the staff was welcoming and accommodating throughout our stay. The food was excellent, with plenty of delicious options for both adults and kids. One of the biggest highlights is the location—it’s just steps from the beach and within easy walking distance of the train station, as well as many great restaurants and shops. We barely needed to use our car during our stay. If you’re looking for a relaxing, family friendly hotel in Oceanside with an unbeatable location, the Seabird is a fantastic choice. We will definitely be back next summer!"
