Your Spot on the Sand in Carlsbad
Our little hotel on the beach is a place where the waves crash just outside your window. It's a sound that soothes you to sleep at night and lures your loved ones out of bed for a day on the surf. With Pacific views, fresh sea air, and a spot directly on the sand, Beach Terrace is unlike any other hotel in Carlsbad. Minutes from San Diego and a short drive from most anywhere in Southern California, here life's little luxuries come alive and moments last forever.
Hotels on the sand in Southern California are few and far between — and in Carlsbad, we’re the only one. Built in the 1960s, our quirky boutique hotel has grown over the years, but we’ve always remained true to our roots. Getting “slow” is a way of life. Whether you choose an oceanfront room cantilevered over the sand or a terrace room by the pool, the beach and a constant chorus of waves are just outside your door.

The Art of Getting Slow
NO RUSH, NO EXPECTATIONS. NO PLACE TO BE OTHER THAN TOGETHER IN THE PRESENT MOMENT.
Seven miles of sandy beaches, magnificent cliffs, and rolling dunes are just some of the natural wonders that envelop our little beach town. And with Carlsbad Village in our front yard, we're also steps away from Carlsbad's celebrated restaurants, galleries, and shops — not to mention a short drive from San Diego's most popular attractions like Legoland and SEA LIFE Aquarium. You just might say we're the perfect spot for every type of vacation.

Here you’ll find panoramic, beach views at every turn. Whether you're sitting around the fire pits or gazing from our private balconies, our view of the Pacific is always spectacular.
Step from your room to the sand. We're the only hotel in Carlsbad that has its own beach, but as the saying goes, "Our beach is your beach."
We’re a hotel where customization is key. Choose your own pillow style from our Pillow Menu, customize your morning with your choice of in-room coffee system, and more.
Let us set up your day by the beach or the pool with towels, umbrellas, and snacks. Our complimentary beach valet also includes toys and boogie boards for building sand castles and riding the waves.
Beach Terrace
Fiercely Independent.
Truly Beachfront.
We’ve always been a little different and marched to the beat of our own waves. Yet it’s these waves and the natural ambiance of our surroundings that ground everything we do. For us, it’s about doing the simple things right and letting the flow of the Pacific be our guide.
