Beach Terrace is a family-run, 48-room boutique hotel in Carlsbad Village, California, and the only property there set directly on the sand. Rooms look out over the Pacific without obstruction, and guests step straight from the hotel onto the beach. Facilities include an outdoor pool, hot tub, rooftop sunbathing terrace, restaurant, business centre and parking, and pets are welcome. The hotel has been independently operated since the 1960s and has recently been renovated, so the interior feels modern throughout. It suits travellers who want a genuine oceanfront stay within walking distance of village restaurants and shops. At around $337 a night it is priced at the upper end, and some seating and pillows draw criticism from guests.
