At Beach Terrace Inn, we pride ourselves on our ability to live life slowly, fully, and in the moment. We cherish the “ahh moments” — those little instances where the distractions of the rest of the world are drowned out and you can finally relax — like that moment when you first hear the waves of the Pacific, or the moment you first feel the sand in your toes, or the moment you pull up to Beach Terrace Inn.
Let us show you how to get slow.
As a past guest I knew that I would receive excellent service and comfortable accommodation right on the beach. No traffic noise. Just the sound of waves crashing on the sand and unbelievable nightly sunsets. A great place to unwind and relax.

Location is perfect, the entire staff is precious, couldn't have been happier!!!!! It's impossible to get any closer to the sand and/or ocean than this wonderful place. I have been there 6 times (the first being in 1987!) and will continue to come back. My daughters and I love that you can walk to many places to eat, we do not have to bring beach chairs or umbrellas - it's already there for us. We also love how children-friendly the Inn is. Recommend this place to family and friends year after year!!!!!

This is a wonderful hotel in a beautiful location. We had a partial ocean view room, but could see the amazing Carlsbad sunsets perfectly. The room was huge, clean and a great place to relax. The staff went out of their way to ensure that everything was perfect...and it was! In particular they spent a lot of time ensuring that the pool and beach areas were kept spotless and that everyone had beach chairs, towels, umbrellas and boogie boards. The location is great for evenings too with dozens of restaurants within 10 minutes walk. Loved it!!

My wife and I travel a lot and we aren't the types that return to the same place over and over - except when it comes to the Beach Terrace Inn. We have now been there six times and made a commitment to each other to return at least three times a year!
