Great Family Getaway
As soon as you pull into the resort there are valet attendants 24 hours/day to greet you and to assist with bags, directions, etc.... The restaurants were great along with room service. If you go to the pool make sure your children are at least 48 inches because CA has a height law and they enforce it. If the pool restaurant is not open you can order from room service which is delivered poolside. The staff is extremely friendly, everyone we met was great. The fitness center offers wonderful group classes and the kids club is fun. It is a very quiet, peaceful and beautiful resort. We are definitely going to go back.

Beautiful but Pricy
Beutiful hotel, but rather spread out. Amenities at the hotel were rather expensive. All the little extra expenses add up.

Dad Traveling With Kids
Great Family Experience
The La Costa Resort in Carlsbad CA was as pleasant an experience as I have ever had traveling with my oldest child. The facility was very clean and the staff proffesional. Every possible amenity of a 4/5 star resort was available. The kids programs were excellent and the pool was a big hit; all 4 of them. (I think there are 6 total.) Just 20 minutes from San Diego and minutes to the ocean and lots of great beach towns. My son (6) was treated like a paying guest, not an accessory, and that is a huge plus. High marks for their receptiveness of kids. Just a note, if you travel on one of their "kids are free specials" read the fine print. I did and I knew the rules going into it. It made life much easier. There were some mom's and dads complaining around me, but it was clear that they had not done their homework. The restaurant staff in the Legends Restaurant was slow, but I think it was more because they were understaffed and very busy as this is the primary restaurants. Regardless, they were always polite and proffesional. Frankly; staying here is not a budget trip. Be prepared to spend some extrat money on food and activites. However, all in all, A GREAT RESORT. Finding good high end resorts that are children friendly is not easy. I would specifically return with my entire family again, and I traveled all the way from Atlanta GA.

No nickname
nice enough
Was there for a short stay, so didn't try many of the amenities. The jacuzzis were open late, so that was nice. Service was good, and they were able to accomodate a complicated special request without any problems. Took a look at the golf course (not enough time to play, unfortunately) and while it looked to be in fine shape, it wasn't in the immaculate condition you'd expect for a course in that price range. Rooms were spacious, spotless and comfortable, but isn't it time to upgrade to an HD TV package? Over-the-air broadcasts seem antiquated.

Time-saving tip:
In Hotel
Don't park before trying to check in. The lot is a quarter mile away. Drop off one person to get the room keys, then drive to room, then drop off your car in the lot afterward. Also, valet service, which a friend got, lost his car, and he had to go hunt for it in the lot.

Happy La Costa Guest
Wonderful place for some R&R
La Costa is kid friendly & is also a great place for couples. It's located away from the busy city life, so it's a wonderful quiet place to relax. BEAUTIFUL landscaping. Definitely coming back!
