Sheraton Carlsbad Resort & Spa

Very good

us Mike 28 May 2022
The hotel is located in a great spot, close to main attractions, restaurants, and transportation. Additionally, we appreciated the free shuttle service from and to the airport. Another positive aspect was the fact that the hotel provided two free drinks per day per room at the hotel bar, which was a nice touch.
Our experience at this hotel was pretty poor. The staff was unfriendly, and there was little attention to details.

Very good

us Scott 28 December 2022
This hotel exceeded my expectations with its luxurious amenities. the Spa & wellness center was top-notch, with a wide range of services that left me feeling rejuvenated. the indoor swimming pool, sauna, and Jacuzzi were pristine and provided a tranquil oasis. the sun terrace, complete with sun loungers and beach umbrellas, boasted stunning garden views. the restaurant served delectable dishes, and the in-room breakfast was a pleasant surprise. the location was perfect, with easy access to the beach and shopping.
My stay was marred by one minor issue. While the service was generally excellent, the bar/lounge area was understaffed, leading to slow service at times.

Excellent

us Randall 28 June 2022
Luxurious and Exclusive Amenities! Staying at this hotel was the ultimate luxury experience. My room had exclusive amenities such as a fully equipped kitchen, a spacious balcony with magnificent scenery, and a beautiful garden area. the spa center was top, notch and provided an incredible massage experience. Furthermore, the outdoor pool is amazing, surrounded by beautiful lounge chairs, and a well, equipped bar. the staff was extremely friendly and helpful; they provided me with packed lunches and outdoor dining, which was a delightful experience.
Limited Choices in Entertainment the only negative thing about my stay was the lack of live entertainment. There were no shows or events happening during my stay.
