“With its own entrance to LEGOLAND California, this Carlsbad resort naturally appeals to families, yet it also provides a full-service spa and fitness center for adults. On-site dining uses fresh, local ingredients, while panoramic views extend over the golf course and the Pacific. In my opinion, this property skillfully blends leisure and luxury.”
