Beach Terrace

Hotels on the sand in Southern California are a rarity, and in Carlsbad—known as the ‘Village by the Sea’ just outside San Diego—Beach Terrace is the only one. This family-owned oceanfront oasis has mastered the art of intentional slowness, where feeling grounded and connecting with nature comes above all else. With an oceanfront Shorebreak Pool and poolside firepits, the intimate 48-key hotel has spacious rooms (up to 700 square feet), where guests will find themselves falling asleep and waking up to crashing waves right outside their door.
