The property is very nice, but we experienced several problems. When we checked in, we were assigned to a room that was very close to Legoland's roller coaster and had no view, despite the view photos on Expedia. The refrigerator had also not been cleaned and contained opened food. We asked for a new room and were initially denied to move into a building further from the rollercoaster, even though there were plenty of rooms (as measured by half-full parking spaces). Desk staff had to ask the manager twice to put us in a different building. Once settled in a new room, our 3-night stay was very nice, except for the $30/day parking fee (i.e., a junk fee). If you reserve on Expedia, be sure to call the resort to ensure you will receive a desirable room.

It’s always a pleasure to return to MarBrisa. We love Carlsbad and all of North County. We can hike or shop and get all our steps. The proximity to the coast gives us the perfect getaway we needed.

Property was good. Room had some maintenance issues (tub not draining, coffee maker not working). We were disappointed to be so far away from the pools with small children.

Our accommodation was great for our family of four. It was very spacious with a kitchen, living room, bedroom with a king size bed, a bath tub separate from the shower area. We were able to do laundry on-site. It was walkable to a separate back entrance to Legoland California. It was very convenient and we avoided the crowd since we started from the back area of the park. It was unfortunate that we were unable to make use of the amenities (i.e. pool) to the fullest due to the colder than usual weather. Overall it was a great stay!
