We stayed 2 nights in a queen/queen deluxe ocean front room May 9th & 10th. We found this hotel when it was a BW about 10 years ago, and stayed in the older wing that had the kitchen suites. We were suitably impressed that when the time came to plan a trip there with our kids, we decided this hotel... more

we stayed at the beach terrace inn on march 8-12. we had a grande room which was huge. Hearing the waves was absolutely theraputic. The hotel itself is nothing fancy but the location and price makes up for it. we will absolutely go back. more

I just returned from a six night family reunion at The Beach Terrace Inn. We had four rooms, consisting of three ocean front and one studio. Two of the three ocean front rooms had been remodeled and were nice. (Ask for handicap) Our room was #26 and the studio we had the kids in was #30. They both need updating... more

We just got back from our stay at the Beach Terrace Inn. Yes, our room was large, but it is in dire need of remodeling and cleaning. The bathroom smelled of mildew and the carpet was really dirty, it felt slimy almost to walk on it with bare feet (I wore socks the entire time). The housekeeping was bad, our... more

We’ve stayed at the Beach Terrace Inn twice now and will be back again. The hotel itself isn’t anything spectacular. It’s aging a bit, but being remodeled. The rooms are huge, and some have heavenly, newly installed Jacuzzis (great for washing off surf and sand!). The staff is friendly and competent. They have free breakfasts each morning with bad coffee... more

Just got back from the Beach Terrace Inn a week ago and I can't stop thinking of it and trying to figure out when we can go back! My two young children (ages 2 & 4) loved it as well. We were able to get the room because of a cancellation, and they even gave us a lower rate. We... more

Overall this is a moderate 2-3 star hotel, a little rough around the edges, but in a great location. The Beach Terrace Inn is truly right on the beach. Many of the hotels in this area have the words sea or beach in their names but are not actually on the beach. It is also within walking distance to Carlsbad... more

I have been going to Carlsbad since I was born (20 years ago) and my parents have been going there since they first got married (26 years ago). 2 times every year we stay here at the Beach Terrace and are NEVER disappointed. (We are actually going at the end of this month). The Beach Terrace is our home away... more

Don't expect the Ritz. This is a middle of the pack hotel, with a great location. The sound of the surf makes up for alot. The rooms were clean, and the service was good. A 2 block walk to the center of the 'Village'. We would stay there again, more
