Ayres Hotel Vista Carlsbad

10/10 Excellent

"Will stay here again."

Hyatt Place San Diego/Vista-Carlsbad

8/10 Good

"During our stay, the property was under construction which did leave the top floor closed down. That’s fine, in fact, we’re barely noticed other than the padded elevator."

Luxurious La Costa Remodel by SPA w/Steam Shower and Washer/Dryer!

10/10 Excellent

"The stay was great!"

A Slice of Paradise inside the Omni La Costa resort, Carlsbad! Villa 6534

10/10 Excellent

"Great getaway for a girls trip"

Two Estates w/ Pools, Hot Tub, Game Rooms, Views & Tennis Court Near Wineries

8/10 Good

"Overall it was a great stay and a very nice property. The rooms are big, the views spectacular, the kitchen(s) fully stocked with dishes, flatware and cookware for 40. Lots of spaces for people to hang out and easy walk from one property to the other (we rented both). The feeling is grand but a little worn, making it elegant but very comfortable. The one hiccup was with pool heating - be sure you know what the ambient temperature of the pool is before requesting (and paying for ) heating. Communication is also a bit of an issue - there's Bob, the owner (very responsive and helpful, but not really "on call"), the AvantStay representative (very responsive but limited in what she can do decision wise), the AvantStay 800 number (also easy to access, polite and courteous and eager to help, but don't make decisions - they pass it up "the chain" and get back to you) and the final level behind the curtain where the decisions are made and passed down but with whom the renter cannot communicate directly. We had several situations where this was not a problem - for example, the AC didn't work upstairs in one of the houses when we arrived and it was replaced the next morning. But when it came to heating the pool it led to miscommunication and a lot of frustration. Fortunately, they eventually understood and resolved the issue fully. with that one caveat, I would recommend the place totally."
