By Heather Hunnefeld


You can spend the night in Carlsbad in a luxury spa or you can take the kids and stay in a nice hotel with a pool, or you can sleep the night away in a budget hotel that will keep you comfortable and happy. Carlsbad Hotels include all three price ranges. There should be no problem finding the right one to meet your needs.

Carlsbad is famous for some of the spas or resorts that are in the city and in the foothills. There are those that cater to your every whim and need. The La Costa Resort and Spa is a very popular one that is located away from the city in the quietness of the foothills. You can take advantage of the 17 tennis courts or swim and sun near the five outdoor pools. You can make a day of the spa and fitness center or go golfing on 2 golf courses that have ties with the PGA championships. The style of the hotel is very pleasing to the eye with Spanish Flair. It is a sprawling hotel with tiled rooftops and stucco buildings. Even the rooms have the heavy Spanish mahogany tables and dressers and very comfortable beds. Look to the staff for you every need and they will get you what ever you want. Children are welcome at this resort and stay free with an adult.

Although this is a spa and resort hotel La Costa is very family friendly. One of the pools is specifically for families with a sandy beach and several waterslides. They operate a program called Kidtopia for kids to 12 years of age. Here they explore, make crafts, and play games on an interactive game floor. There is something for the teen to do too at the Vibz with x-box lounge, other arcade games and pool tables.
