If you can't wait to get to the beach, you might enjoy a trip to Leucadia State Beach located 2.1 mi (3.3 km) from central Encinitas. If you want to continue walking by the waves, head to Grandview Surf Beach and Beacon Beach, both within a short walk.
When the beach is calling your name, you might want to head down to Beacon Beach, located 1.7 mi (2.8 km) from central Encinitas. Catch the sunset by the shore at Leucadia State Beach, just a short walk away.
You might want to practice your swing at Encinitas Ranch Golf Course, a golf course located 2.4 mi (3.8 km) from central Encinitas.

Great location with good parking. I enjoyed the walk to Beacon Park and Grandview beach access points. (Both have long steep descents; people with mobility challenges may need to drive to get to easier access.) Nice clean room with kitchenette. Friendly staff.
The place was great. We stayed for 6 nights. The room had a king sized bed and a couch. It had a desk, 2 nightstands with reading lights. The vanity was big. It had a mini fridge, microwave and coffee maker. The room was clean and had plenty of towels. We stayed on the 3rd floor and the elevator worked fine. The pool and jacuzzi were relaxing. Free breakfast from 6:30-9:30am was a nice spread. Eggs and sausage, biscuits and gravy, waffles. Yogurt, fresh fruit and much more.
We will definitely be...
The Moonlight Beach Motel has been nicely updated recently and the view from the deluxe double room was amazing! There are no frills but has what you need including coffee maker, mini fridge & microwave & you can beat how close to the beach it is. It is very clean & well kept and Jordan at the front desk is very nice & helpful. I will stay here again.
This little gem sits right on the beach and is PERFECT! I stayed with my two daughters and we plan to go back as soon as possible. The room was clean and spacious. The hotel was within walking distance of everything. Our stay included free wifi, parking, and breakfast (I think this is the norm for all stays). As for the beach, there are complimentary beach chairs, umbrellas, towels and boogie boards. So fun! You won't regret choosing this hotel!
- The hot breakfast (which I didn't know it was included in mine) was awesome. They had egg-based meal, cereals, oatmeal, yogurt, fruit, bread, orange juice, and more (and yes, everything was hot and delicious)
- Parking (self-covered) will be just $10, which I think is a really reasonable price.
- The place is quiet and safe. In front of the place there are two gas stations; both walkable. I arrived at the hotel late and went there like 10PM but never felt unsafe.
- The staffs were extremely...
The absolute QUIETEST hotel we have EVER stayed in, and the place was full of kids! Same exit as LegoLand so we expected kids and it to be loud. We stayed for an entire week and never heard anything! Occasionally hear the train, but was muffled. Staff was incredibly friendly, and I mean all of them! Even just passing in the hallways or elevators, they would great you and smile. Just not what we expected. Pool heater was not working, but the weather permitted cooler water anyway. Beach was just a...
I've stayed at this hotel many times and it never disappoints me! The staff is terrific - the accommodations are comfortable and clean. I highly recommand you stay here while in Del Mar, California
The room was clean and even though it's by an airport it was extremely quite and the bed was comfortable so we slept good. We were provided with great customer service and delicious breakfast! I would definitely stay again if in the area again!
LOVELY stay! The balcony rooms are great with amazing sunset views and the heated pool is ACTUALLY heated. Great temperature and we didn't need to adjust to the heated pool at all. The restaurant had great brunch and dinner options--delicious!
Great experience. Nice room, it is clean, the bathroom nice, modern and clean.
Small but nice balcony can see the sunset and ocean view from the first floor.
Definitely will come back.
As every parent knows, traveling with young children isn’t easy. Finding a reliable place to stay with child-friendly amenities is among the most significant obstacles. This hotel did everything it could to provide a safe environment and keep the kids occupied. In addition, they offered excellent breakfast free of charge.
We spent one day in Lego land, on a nearby beach, and at Safari Park. My 6-year-old and I had a blast for 3 days and the best Thanksgiving holiday!! Many modern healthy eating...
All was superb until 10:30 pm, when the new guests on the room above us checked in/arrived. Children running stomping and yelling into the wee hours. Just to wake us up again at 7 am. They didnt seemed to be supervised, maybe lack of. Just a suggestion, please put family with children on bottom rooms.
My husband and I went for a little weekend getaway and the hotel was lovely. We had an ocean view room with a big balcony. It was surprisingly quiet. You can walk everywhere, we left our car parked the whole time. The hotel staff is so friendly!!
Wonderful location directly across from beach access and the Carlsbad village. Service was awesome! They made our experience special and stress free, especially having young children. They provided all of the beach amenities we could ask for, including towels, toys, chairs, umbrellas. The grounds of the property really made the stay extra special. It’s meticulously maintained with a Hawaiian vibe. You very much feel like you’ve been transported to the islands. Can’t wait to come back!
