In the backdrop of the iconic Windmill that’s long been a Carlsbad landmark, is the warm, affordable, and family-friendly Carlsbad by the Sea Hotel. Framed by country-style architecture, tranquil garden courtyards, and a free-form, heated outdoor pool and spa, the hotel features a historic charm that has been newly renovated and polished inside and out to meet the needs of today’s travelers. Located across the street from the Carlsbad Premium Outlets’ 90 stores and restaurants, down the road from the Carlsbad Flower Fields and LEGOLAND California. We are the perfect home base for exploring North County San Diego’s stunning beaches
