As a city who loves furry friends, Carlsbad is thrilled to be launching an exciting new initiative –  “All Paws Lead to Carlsbad.” This pet-friendly program is designed to make travel to Carlsbad with your four-legged friends easier than ever.

When it comes down to it, there is nothing quite like the bond between a pet and their owner. Owning a pet means that you always have a comforting cuddle, a listening ear and unwavering love by your side. Our pets are a beloved part of the family and we want to bring them along on our travels but finding hotels, restaurants and attractions that welcome pets isn’t always easy. That’s why the “All Paws Lead to Carlsbad” initiative is so exciting. The program makes it easy to plan a trip with your pet by bringing together a range of pet-friendly options in one place. From February to May 2023, Carlsbad hotels, restaurants, attractions, shopping centers and retail businesses are rolling out the red carpet for pets and their owners.

Here are some of the tail-wagging activities that will be available at Carlsbad hotels:

Cape Rey Carlsbad Beach, a Hilton Resort and Spa is a great place to stay if you’re traveling with your furry friend. The resort is hosting fun, pet-friendly activities this spring, including three “Yappy Hours” at Chandler’s Oceanfront Dining on Wednesdays, March 1, April 5 and May 3, 2023. The “Yappy Hours” will include pet-friendly dishes, pup-tails, games and more fun for your furry friends during their Happy Hour for humans too. Walk the Carlsbad coastline, then relax on the Sunset Terrace at Chandler’s to refuel with the resort’s special Puppy Chow menu and doggie treats. During your visit, stop in at The Break – Sun, Surf & Sand Essentials off the lobby to find fur-baby toys and treats.

Relax in luxury with your furry friend with the Omni La Costa Resort & Spa pet package. Enjoy some pup perks with the “Bark and Park” package, which includes complimentary self-parking, a complimentary pet fee (up to two dogs) and a special gift for your canine traveling companions. 

You can escape in style with beautiful coastline views at The Cassara Carlsbad. This pet-friendly property is offering a “Pet-cation” package for guests from now until the end of May, which includes a goodie bag consisting of treats, water, toy ball and a roll of scented potty bags. 

To spoil your pets, the Park Hyatt Aviara Resort & Spa is a great option. The resort is pampering furry friends with complimentary amenities, such as a dog bowl, bed and a stylish Park Hyatt Aviara branded dog bandana. The on-site culinary team has created a special in-room pet menu featuring handcrafted dog treats for pets to indulge in. In addition, Pacific Point, Ponto Lago and Ember & Rye will be serving a special “Bark at the Park” cocktail, with 10% of sales benefiting the San Diego Department of Animal Services in Carlsbad. Moreover, 10% of in-room pet menu sales and 50% of the standard pet fee will be donated to the San Diego Department of Animal Services in Carlsbad.

And, if you are in Carlsbad for St. Patrick’s Day, book a room at the newly renovated Hilton Garden Inn Carlsbad Beach for a “Yappy Hour” on Friday, March 17, from 4 pm to 6 pm. Enjoy this special occasion with your pets, where they can indulge in treats, games and fun activities while you enjoy Happy Hour at this beautiful hotel across from the beach. 

To add to all the pet-friendly accommodations, the All Paws initiative is also featuring tons of activities for pet parents and their four legged friends. These include wine tastings and a photo contest at Carruth Carlsbad, dog-friendly trails and a costume contest at the Agua Hedionda Lagoon Foundation, SUP yoga classes with treats for dogs and pottery-making workshops where visitors and their pets can create clay keepsake paw prints. The Carlsbad Premium Outlets is setting up two pet photo stations and hosting a Pet Fair featuring an adoption event and microchip clinic. The Forum Carlsbad is offering two $500 gift cards for shopping and dining days with furry friends, while The Shoppes at Carlsbad is hosting a doggie bake sale with proceeds benefiting the San Diego Department of Animal Services.

Memorial Day wasn’t technically celebrated in the U.S. until the late 19th century. The day commemorates exactly what it is named for – honoring those who have fallen in battle. One of the earliest arranged celebrations of fallen soldiers was organized by freed slaves. At the end of the Civil War, thousands of Union soldiers perished as prisoners of war. After the Confederate surrender, recently freed slaves and regiments of the U.S. Colored Troops gathered to provide a proper burial ground for their fellow soldiers. Approximately three years later, the commander-in-chief of the Union veteran’s Grand Army of the Republic issued a decree that designated May 30 as the nationwide day of memorial for the hundreds of thousands of soldiers that lost their lives in the Civil War. It officially became a federal holiday in 1971. Now, Memorial Day continues to honor veterans who have honorably served our country.  As a summer rite of passage and, more importantly, a day to remember – Memorial Day is a day to kick back, relax, and recall all of the sacrifices that those who came before us made.

Here are some ways to celebrate Memorial Day in Carlsbad this year:

Book a Stay at a Carlsbad Resort or Hotel

No matter what time of year you visit, the city of Carlsbad is a prime getaway destination. For Memorial Day, the coastline offers tourists a place to soak in the unique springtime sunsets of the west coast.

One of Carlsbad’s premier resorts, the Westin Carlsbad Resort & Spa recently reopened to locals and travelers. The resort has panoramic ocean views, two signature restaurants, pools, and ample outdoor space. For a limited time, guests can take advantage of a couple of different springtime discounts. Current packages include tickets to the Flower Fields and complimentary bicycles from the resort to get there. Through Memorial Weekend only, guests can hop on and off the Ride the Tide shuttle provided by the Westin. This open air-beach trolley drops guests off at destinations within a five-mile radius of the resort.

The Beach Terrace Inn is also running an enticing springtime deal that is perfect for Memorial Day weekend. Their Spring Revival pricing gives guests up to 20% off on various accommodations. These specials are a perfect excuse to shake off the winter chill and honor the holiday with a beach getaway that won’t break the bank.

For a luxury stay at an award-winning resort spa with eight sparkling pools and two championship golf courses – you can also consider booking a stay at the Omni La Costa Resort and Spa. For Memorial Day, guests can cash in on the Escape and Save package for up to 15% off when staying two nights or more.

Host a BBQ and Support Local Carlsbad Businesses

Modern-day Memorial Day festivities usually include good food, good drinks, and friends and family to match. For Memorial Day this year, many restaurants have reopened with takeaway options to support outdoor get-togethers.

If you are hosting a backyard barbeque for Memorial Day, or just want to kick back and enjoy a quiet meal outside – try any one of these options for a tasty summertime meal without the prep work:

– Park 101
– Notorious BBQ
– Felix’s BBQ with Soul
– Burger Lounge
– Pure Burger
– Eureka

Enjoy the Great Outdoors

Alongside booking your stay, BBQs, and bike rides – Carlsbad beaches are a free way to enjoy the long weekend and experience the beauty of the coast.

Carlsbad has over 7 miles of pristine beaches, and each has something new to see. From expansive cliffs and drop-offs to boardwalks and sandy terraces – pack a beach chair and head to South Carlsbad State Beach or Tamarack Surf Beach to soak up the sun this Memorial Day.

Rouleur Brewing Memorial Day Ride

If bicycling is your thing, this year’s Memorial Day Ride is a fun way to pay homage to fallen soldiers and support one of Carlsbad’s local breweries all at the same time.

Rouleur Brewery was built on the love of cycling and a foundation of the principles that cycling is founded on. In French, ‘Rouleur’ quite literally translates to ‘having wheels’. They brew their beer with the balance and precision that comes with their name. On Memorial Day, the brewery is hosting its first official ride in over a year. They are offering two options for this year’s ride: gravel and pavement. Coffee will be available in the tasting room starting at 7 a.m. and beer will be available starting at 11 a.m. A food truck will also be onsite for sustenance after the ride.

Holidays are a reminder to celebrate important moments in history. On Memorial Day, use the three-day weekend to remember all of the fallen soldiers that have shaped our past and continue to shape our future.

Established in 1960, the Beach Terrace Inn is a key part of the city’s resort culture. Their on-the-water retreat has survived the test of time. The unique footprint of the beachfront escape is part of what makes the Carlsbad coastline a popular destination for tourists. The Beach Terrace Inn has the Southern California coastal vibes that draw visitors in and make them want to stay. In the ’60s, the hotel was originally built as a set of desirable waterfront apartments. These original apartments are what make the current rooms at the Inn comfortable and relaxing. The guest rooms are large and spaced out with multiple levels and accompanying views. In 1960, the property started with one apartment building. The expansive views and demand for a comfortable waterfront getaway quickly grew. In the 1970s another building was added, followed by a third in the 1980s. This growth and longevity is precisely what is so unique about the hotel. In addition to the spacious rooms, the Inn also has its very own private beach, just steps away from the 7 miles of coastline that Carlsbad calls home.

Another factor that sets the Beach Terrace Inn apart is the family that made it. The Inn is still family-owned and operated and the staff has years of experience under their belts. The same family who understood the magic of Southern California in the 60s are bringing the joy of SoCal to guests today. The art of slow and methodical relaxation is at their core, and the unpretentious ability to experience luxury without pretense are a few things that give this Carlsbad beachfront escape staying power. The Inn acknowledges that the natural beauty of Carlsbad’s coastline can stand on its own. By adding simple amenities like a pool, wifi, free parking, breakfast, and a beach valet – guests at the Inn can enjoy the coastline without distraction.

In an interview featured in Pegasus, Renier Milan, Vice President of TOBO Investments, the parent company that owns Beach Terrace Inn, said:

“We feel very strongly that the regular world ends where our sand begins. We practice a relaxed vibe, which is why I can’t emphasize enough how friendly and helpful our staff is. In fact, we hire based on personality traits and then train the skill.”

The guest rooms at the Beach Terrace Inn offer one of many views. From a Courtyard View to a Horizon View, to an Ocean Front Panoramic View and everything in between – there is something to catch your breath at every turn. Balconies are available in almost every configuration and the cool ocean breeze flows through rooms with ease. With stunning beaches and breathtaking views, the striking cliffs and crashing waves are just steps away from the hotel’s front door. As the only true beachfront hotel in the area, the Beach Terrace Inn has amazing views, shorefront decks, and an outdoor patio that puts you right where you want to be when you need to relax.

During a year where everything seems to be changing, the beauty of Southern California sustains. At the Beach Terrace Inn, everyday happiness is ingrained into the service, amenities, and chilled out vibes throughout the hotel. For the winter season, they are serving up beachfront memories with safety in mind. Their Winter Presence Special offers up to 20% off, and if you stay 3 nights, your third night is free.

And, while Beach Terrace Inn remains the only true beachfront hotel in Carlsbad, Best Western Plus Beach View Lodge occupies an incredible location just 70 paces from the beach as well. The Carlsbad, Best Western is owned by the same family as the Beach Terrace Inn. By operating two entirely different hotels, one an independent and the other part of a major brand, the team at Beach Terrace Inn and Carlsbad, Best Western are able to offer beachfront experiences to a wide range of travelers at a variety of different price points.

If you’re looking for a getaway that encapsulates all of the joy that Carlsbad has to offer, the Beach Terrace Inn is the spot to be. Book a room today for a getaway that is bright and breezy – despite how hectic this year has been.

Almost two years ago, Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort announced that they would be kicking off an expansive list of renovations. The coastal resort has long been a go-to place for laid back vibes and Carlsbad charm. It is located in vibrant downtown Carlsbad and is just steps from the beach. With cool beachy tones and modern furnishings, the accommodations at the resort are clean, fresh, and inviting. Now, the future looks even brighter for the relaxing beachside resort, as Phase 4 of the sitewide renovations are well underway.

Since 2018, Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort has been undergoing a long list of construction projects that have touched almost every part of the property. One of the major ongoing projects has been waterproofing the garage. Since its start, the waterproofing project has gone through many different phases. The resort estimates that the waterproofing will be completely finished by June 2021.

Earlier this summer, Phase 3 of the renovation project successfully added a variety of upgrades to the outdoor space. The pool area was rebuilt and extended on all sides to add almost 50% additional surface space to the swimming area. A fantastic pergola has been added to the surrounding area and a dedicated space for ping pong tables has been added for family-fun competition.

In total, there is only one phase of the four phase renovation project left. In this fourth phase, the entire central courtyard will be getting a facelift. The firepits and adult Jacuzzi will be overhauled, offering guests a modern and relaxing place to unwind after the sun goes down. The Oak condominium building, North side of the Elm condo building and adjacent patio, and tree area east of the Elm building will be getting expansive exterior enhancements. Lastly, the BBQ area on the north side of the resort will be getting an entire rebuild for an upgraded outdoor dining experience. There will be new grilling equipment and covered spaces for added shade.

There is a lot to look forward to in the coming year for the Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort. In the meantime, Grand Pacific Resorts is deeply committed to the health and wellbeing of its guests during the pandemic. If you can’t wait to get away and need a place to relax during the holidays, the Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort is following Vacation Well policies to ensure an enhanced level of cleaning standards.
