3 Days | Carlsbad, CA

Carlsbad is a golf and spa lover’s dream. Only 1.5hrs from Los Angeles or 45 minutes from San Diego, you can enjoy all that in a weekend. This guide is designed as a bit of a parents weekend away for us, but could also be used as a staycation or a weekend trip for non-parents or even girls trips! We saw several baby showers and other families there while we were on the property. This guide includes: - 1 resort recommendation (with great military discount) - 4 restaurant recommendations - 7 activity recommendations

Carlsbad is a golf and spa lover’s dream. Only 1.5hrs from Los Angeles or 45 minutes from San Diego, you can enjoy all that this upscale beach town has to offer in a weekend, or even add this getaway into a longer trip to Southern California.

This guide is designed around our trip to the Omni La Costa Resort as a bit of a parents weekend away but could also be used as a staycation or a weekend trip for non-parents or even girls trip! We saw several baby showers and other families there while we were on the property. We ourselves aren't golfers, but there are many great golf courses in Carlsbad and La Jolla

Day 1 | Check in and Nightlife

Omni La Costa Resort & Spa
@objectsinmotion
This hotel offers a great military/government rate. When booking we also had the option to purchase discounted resort credits, which we used for the spa. Make sure you sign up for the Omni loyalty program before booking. We got a total of 6 drink tickets, a welcome box and champagne and chocolate covered strawberries our second day.

If you intend to golf I would probably check in and get any tee times that you would like to reserve.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
I am a Southern California native, mother of two, military spouse and travel lover currently located in Naples, Italy. I’ve lived and visited many different places and I hope that my travels will help you plan your next great adventure! My guides focus on travel that the whole family can enjoy and feature some of the great places the military has sent us, as well as our own travels. Having lived in many different places, I have local knowledge of a wide variety of places. Two of my favorite recent travels are a month long family trip to Australia and Singapore and a multi-generational Caribbean cruise. I love that some of my kids first core memories will be of our international travels. It is so heart warming to watch them make friends at a foreign playground and having an interaction with a person that doesn’t speak their same language. Now, living in Italy we have many more opportunities for travel, both throughout Europe and locally near Naples, Pompeii, and the Amalfi Coast. We have enjoyed discovering new foods, exploring language and culture. My youngest has an egg allergy that we manage so food and language intertwine often.
