Overview

Rating

Beach Terrace Inn is in the heart of Carlsbad but on a quiet street that suites the hotel’s Zen, surfer-like ambiance. Nestled between costly beach cottages, the hotel maintains an upscale resort aesthetic without feeling stuffy. Kids enjoying the beach, lounging older couples, and young couples hitting the Southern California waves all can be found here. However, the atmosphere is suited best for couples seeking a relaxing holiday.

Located right on the beach in the heart of Carlsbad, The Beach Terrace Inn is in a pristine location. There are plenty of shops, restaurants, and entertainment within walking distance, but the commuter rail line that connects to San Diego's Gas Lamp Quarter is two blocks away. The main local attraction is Legoland California, just ten minutes from the hotel. Several great beaches, golf courses, and lagoon are fairly close, but downtown San Diego is a 40-minute drive away.

Aside from free parking and a private beach, amenities are scarce. There is an outdoor heated pool and whirlpool surrounded by a deck with plush lounge seating. The WiFi is free, as is the continental breakfast. Beach chairs and umbrellas are also available to guests free of charge.

When it comes to the rooms, the main draw is that some rooms feature ocean views situated right over the sand and offer private balconies. All of the rooms are large and feature conveniences such as custom pillows, flat-screen TVs, iPod docks, mini-fridges, and wet bars. Business travelers enjoy the full work desks in every room. The toiletries come in bulk sizes which is uncommon for boutique hotels.

Beach Terrace Inn offers the ultimate escape on a private stretch of beach. Travelers looking for a beach escape will find a haven at the hotel.

Pros (+) The view was picturesque . Shannon the at the front desk carries this place, she should go into hotel management.
Cons (-) Seriously outdated rooms, tripped several times on the uneven flooring in room 26. The carpet felt like it had been laid over another carpet that had been folded over in different areas. Bedding was not what I expected for the money that they charged for an exclusive room. Maid service needs basic bed making 101, how to tuck in the bottom sheet so patrons feet are not touching the mattress pad. Po...

Pros (+) Loved being right on the icean and watching sunsets and hearing surf right out of our room. Appreciated continental breakfast. Lovely accomodations. Might be a little difficult for handicapped person to get around, however.
Cons (-) The Internet service kept booting me off. My husband could not talk on his iphone (sprint) unless he went out in front of the hotel. I guess Carlsbad limits cell towers.

Pros (+) I have stayed at the Beach Terrace Inn several times and have always been happy with the staff and service. The rooms are large and well appointed. The location is great as it is on the beach with most rooms having full, unobstructed views of the beach and Pacific Ocean. It is also only a block away from very nice restaurants and shops. No street noise, just the sound of the surf.
