Overview

Close beach view Ocean Palms Beach ResortEntrance sign at the door Ocean Palms Beach Resort

Carlsbad, on the coast of Southern California, may be home to several fabulous resorts, but if you are looking for one that gives you beach access, an island vibe, lots of amenities, and plenty of room to spread out, you should book your stay at Ocean Palms Beach Resort. This boutique resort is about as relaxed of an atmosphere you can get this side of Hawaii, but it has aloha spirit to spare. The grounds of the resort are lush and tropical, making you forget all about the world outside.

There are no ordinary rooms at Ocean Palms. Each one is a suite, complete with fully equipped kitchen, dining space, and colorful tropical accents. You won’t be charged a resort fee, but you will get amenities such as free parking, Wi-Fi, and daily continental breakfast during your stay. You also get use of towels, chairs, and other gear that you can take with you to the beach.

Local Tips
Rooms with kitchen
All rooms come with kitchens to make your stay the perfect home away with addition of fresh ocean air.

Ocean Palms does have a snack bar where you can grab a bite to eat, but with a kitchen in every suite, you can also prepare quick meals at your convenience or sample some of the flavors of Carlsbad’s restaurants. Don’t forget, you are not far from San Diego, where your dining options are virtually endless. The multilingual resort staff can assist you with reservations for restaurants or excursions to fit in as much fun as you can while you are a guest.

Speaking of fun, the resort has activities to enjoy right on property. The heated outdoor pool has lots of lounge chairs so you can swim and sunbathe while surrounded by sumptuous landscaping. You can work on your short game at the putting green, soak in the hot tub, sit around the fire pits, or work out in the fitness center. There is also a meeting room on site, if you need to attend to business while you are there. Be sure to stop by the gift shop if you forget any essentials or if you want a souvenir to take home with you. Make Ocean Palms your home away from home while you vacation in sunny Carlsbad.
