Allisson Williams If you’re looking for a coastal California retreat that appeals to mom, dad and the kids, the La Costa Spa Resort in Carlsbad is hard to beat.
This gorgeous Mission-style beach resort is known for its world-class luxury spa, tennis courts, golf courses, and own private water park.
Located just 15 miles north of San Diego and 10 minutes from sunny Carlsbad beach, La Costa Resort has been drawing sports luminaries and movie stars since its opening in 1965, and is one of the most popular spa hotels in the county.
Tiger Woods is no stranger to La Costa’s two championship Dick Wilson golf courses, while Venus Williams and Maria Sharapova have claimed titles at the resort’s world-class tennis center and clay courts.
But what makes this the best family vacation destination in northern San Diego county is Splash Landing, an awesome water park that combines three fast-moving water slides with a great water park for tots.
If that wasn’t enough there are eight separate pools competing for your attention. Toddlers will surely enjoy the warm 3-foot kiddie pool with its sandy shore and beach toys, while adults can soak up the sun or rent a private cabana at the resort pool.
Teens are sure to enjoy the Vibz lounge, packed with tons of activities from air hockey and pool tables to the latest video games.
In 2006, La Costa completed a $140 million dollar renovation, adding two gourmet restaurants, redesigned Mission-style guest rooms and a new, 43,000-square-foot luxury spa and salon. It’s no wonder this is one of California’s hottest spots for destination weddings.
Spa at La Costa pampers guests with its serene courtyard pool and strawberry-seed body exfoliations, while Deepak Chopra and David’s Simon’s world-renowned Chopra Center specializes in daily yoga and Ayurvedic spa therapies.
One of the best kept secrets is the Chopra Center’s complimentary meditation sessions, offered twice daily.
It’s a great way to start or end your day at this luxury 400-acre resort.
