About Carlsbad by the Sea

Carlsbad By The Sea's location on the Pacific Ocean next to quaint Carlsbad Village is just one of the attributes that draws people to this world-class community. Stroll along the ocean walk, meander through the village's many antique shops or pop into the Fitness and Wellness Center for a jog on the treadmill or a deep-muscle massage. Carlsbad By The Sea has a celebrated past as the site of the first health resort in California, catering to prestigious guests during its heyday in the early 1930s and '40s. The community was completely rebuilt in 1998, adding a state-of-the-art Care Center and resort-like amenities including an indoor spa with sauna. Historic features, such as the mission-style façade, were replicated in exact detail. Carlsbad Assisted Living accommodates only 13 residences, assuring you highly personalized care in a comfortable and intimate environment. Skilled nursing is also offered on campus, should you ever need to recover from a surgery or require round-the-clock care.
