Carlsbad, a city on the move, has quickly become known as the land of resorts. Filling those big shoes, the city with a 100-year spa tradition,  is excited to see the opening the newest Hilton Carlsbad Oceanfront Resort & Spa (hiltoncarlsbadoceanfront.com) in late July.  Why? Tourists want to stay at THE BEACH. Couples want to wed at THE BEACH.  Meeting planners want to wow their employees and clients at THE BEACH. And they ALL want to go to bed with a golden sunset and wake up watching the pelicans soar over the blue Pacific. It isn’t a dream, but a dream come true for Wave Crest Hotels and Resorts,  a San Diego County-based hospitality company which owns and manages high-quality hotel properties on and near the California coast.

Modeling the California Craftsman style, Hilton Carlsbad Oceanfront Resort & Spa features 215 guest rooms including eight suites, many with panoramic ocean views. The hotel’s central west-facing courtyard includes a 4,000 square-foot free-form swimming pool surrounded by a vibrant coastal desert garden of palms, succulents and grasses. At to that the undulating, mosaic-tiled water-wall across the pool  which lends a visual and aural sparkle and you have MAGIC!
