Hello John,
Thank you so much for the kind words! We're happy to hear you enjoyed the spacious condo and convenient location. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!
Clean and cozy property, well maintained grounds. Has all you need to stay with a family. Conveniently located to all attractions, car is still needed for moving around. Overall we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you
This property is everything you need for a fun weekend with family. The manager communicates very well with you.
Also being next to the hotel is very convenient for morning coffee and late-night snacks.
Location was our attraction: access to tennis courts and the lovely pool! The fully equipped kitchen made the stay more comfortable and relaxing to prepare quick dinners! Handy parking! Nice View! Thanks, John & Joanne
Property was clean and met our needs. The bathtub/shower is hard to get into due to the high sides so it made it a little more challenging to bathe the little ones we had with us. We could have used a couple of extra bath towels as well.

Upon arrival, guest was rude and unable to understand basic instructions for parking (despite photo instructions for parking provided to guest three days in advance, and a reminder text message sent to guest the day of her arrival).
As a practice we always communicate with our guests to ensure their satisfaction, however, this guest decided to be rude and short in her communication, which is again evident by her short rude review.
Please disregard this review as it is untrue.
Clean and well equipped. Great location. Quiet neighborhood. Comfy beds and furnishings. Note that if one has mobility issues….it’s a big step into the tub/shower. Laundry facility is in the underground garage but easy to use. Wouldn’t hesitate to return.
Our daughter plays travel soccer, so we stay at places often. This is by far the best one we have stayed at. Amazing view. Amazing beds. We have never stayed at a place who left enough towels for 4 people, this one had enough and more cozy towels. The only thing i would say negative was the surfaces need to be cleaned better. The counter of all bathrooms and kitchen smelt of dirty towels. But i re-clean everything when i stay places anyways, so its not much of a deal after that. We will book this again when we stay in the area for sure. Thank you!

Some descriptions were less than accurate. TVs did not work well. Tub was extremely high and hard to enter. Kitchen was not well organized. Could not use microwave and toaster oven at the same time. Mattresses were very comfortable. Location was great.

Once again, thank you for your valuable feedback. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future and provide you with an even more enjoyable experience.
We stayed as family of 4 and the apartment was perfect. The kids enjoyed the pool right next to the apartment house.
The kitchen is equipped with basic tools and everything was on hand to make breakfast and a family dinner.
A big plus were the very comfy memory foam mattresses. We slept very well.
Community washer and dryer were available, unfortunately one of the washers were broken so only one washer for the whole block was available. It worked out but sometimes with some running back and forth.
Communication with the property management worked great.
We enjoyed our stay very much especially because it was a quieter place in a very summer crowed area.
The condo was very clean. The master bed was pretty comfortable. The kitchen is pretty small but ok for heating things up in the microwave and getting snacks. There was no creamer packets for the coffee, but plenty of sugar, which we dont use. The view overlooking the pool was nice. We couldnt get the t.v. to work, possibly due to dead remote batteries. A/C worked well in the living room, and if you get the tower fans going, you can get cooler air into the bedrooms for a nice temp! The master shower had issues. I knew about the height of trying to climb into it, before our arrival but didnt realize the width of the tub edge. It was almost impossible to get in and out of. Also, took a cold shower the first night cause navigationg the 4 temp handles was a bit of a learning curve. The condo was near to Legoland, which was our main purpose of going to Carlsbad. So all in all we had a great time with our granddaughters! Thank you!!

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re delighted to hear that you found the condo clean and enjoyed the comfortable master bed and nice pool view.
We appreciate your feedback about the kitchen and TV. We're happy to let you know that all TVs have been replaced with new models for a better experience. We’ve also resolved any hot water issues, ensuring that future guests have a smooth experience with the showers.
We understand the challenges with the shower design, and we’re continually looking for ways to improve guest comfort. It’s great to hear you had a wonderful time with your granddaughters at Legoland! Thank you for staying with us, and we hope to welcome you back soon!
Everything we needed was provided, beds were comfy and view of pool, tennis courts was pleasant. Only issue was the tile build up around the tub made it impossible for aged mother to get in. Excellent for young family, not the best for elderly or disabled.
This place is great…close to all resort amenities (access available for purchase) and close to I-5 so it makes visiting the zoo and theme parks very easy. Only 3.5 miles from Legoland. Great neighborhood with great dining options nearby. Can’t wait to come back!
Great property location. Very nice accommodations!
