Omni La Costa Resort & Spa Carlsbad

Omni La Costa Resort & Spa Carlsbad

8/10 Good
"The place was really the most family friendly resort I’ve ever been to and the staff was truly amazing!!! I deducted one star because I did find a big dead bug under our bathroom sink, and killed a spider the side of a quarter on the wall in our bathroom. The room itself was really cute but I’ll be honest it felt a little dirty. Otherwise an awesome experience!!"
