Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Perched on the cliffs of Carlsbad with sweeping views of the sparkling sea, this welcoming destination resort offers one of the most spectacular settings in the area for a waterfront soiree. Boasting airy, coastal-inspired guest rooms, elegant event spaces with stunning ocean views, and plenty of luxurious amenities, it's the perfect setting for a serene SoCal beach wedding.
- Swaying palms and luscious greenery frame the verdant Shearwater Lawn, where al fresco ceremonies are often held. After the "I do"s, guests can mingle and sip handcrafted cocktails on the Terrace, admiring the magnificent sunset over the azure waters, before retiring to dine and dance in the inviting Shearwater Ballroom, with its glowing modern chandeliers and warm, neutral palette.
- The dedicated event coordinator and award-winning chef are truly passionate about their work, collaborating closely with each couple to ensure their unique vision is brought to life. Whether you picture an intimate dinner with your closest friends or a grand weekend-long affair with all your loved ones, you'll be well cared for by their talented team.
