Find hotels in Ivey Ranch - Rancho Del Oro, Oceanside

"2 Stars for motel, 5 stars for the staff. The staff was very welcoming and very friendly, but from there everything else was very underwhelming. Small dark room, cheap wobbly furniture, sticky carpet, sloppy paint job. Thin cheap towels, looked clean, but didn’t smell freshly laundered. They do provide decent body wash, shampoo & conditioner, and body lotion. And thankfully the bedding was clean, and smelled laundered. The property itself was dirty and poorly kept. The complementary breakfast had plenty of food, However if you have any dietary restrictions, there were no non-diary options of milk or yogurt, and no healthy oatmeal toppings like nuts/seeds, fresh berries, cinnamon, etc. There was some fresh whole fruits available, so that was nice. And the location is within walking distance to the beach, which was also nice. Bottom line, if you’re only staying a night or two on your way somewhere else, and don’t want to pay a fortune, this would be an ok choice. I would not recommend this motel for vacations or an extended stay. But just to end on a good note, the staff was great!"

"Location was very good "

"My wife our two toddlers and I traveled from Las Vegas 5 hrs got there at 1:30am My wife forgot her I.D. But had a photo of it Amy(Front desk worker) said that both Adults needed to have their physical I.D. or she would not check us in which I had mine and I was the one that made the reservation! We have stayed at many motels 6 and Hotels and have never had this issue before, Just wanted to check in and get some rest and Amy was rude and not willing to help us. Ended up having to sleep in our car because we could not find any vacant hotel rooms for the night it was 3am at that point. Worst experience I’ve ever had not to mention it’s was my Birthday!"

"My family and I spent the day at LegoLand and decided to book Carlsbad By The Sea for a short stay-cation. The main lobby is currently under construction but the temporary lobby was easy to find via signs. The receptionist was warm, kind, and professional. Check-in was very simple! Our room was clean and the beds were comfortable. Our 3 year old especially enjoyed the heated pool and jacuzzi. We were able to walk across the parking lot to the Windmill food hall, where we had many dining options. The hotel is also located across the street from Carlsbad Outlets and right by the freeway. Overall, great location, great pricing, courteous staff, CLEAN room. Highly recommend!"

"It's a nice casino, the rooms are nice as well. The only thing is the casino area while it has certain smoking and non smoking felt like it all was smoking area so if you're not comfortable with smoke I definitely would not recommend."

"The staff were excellent, the location very convenient and the breakfast was excellent. The only thing I didn’t like that the room was very noisy and was so close to the highway "

"Beautiful place to stay! Loved being near the beach, and walkable to many great restaurants. We weren’t impressed with the Piper Restaurant, but the Shore Room was very nice with excellent drinks. This resort is very family friendly, who co is great for families, but there were many screaming and running kids around the common areas and swimming pool and especially in the hot tub, even though the sign says go 12 and older."

"Staff was nice enough but room was dirty, and very stingy with towels for bathing. "

"Good place, nothing crazy but priced fairly! Short walk to the beach and downtown was killer for us! Staff is nice and the housekeepers do a great job. We spent most of our time at moonlight beach and at the shops and restaurants downtown. The Encinitian was a great place to stay between adventures! I would definitely come back. "
