Planning group travel in Carlsbad
Companies tend to ask the same questions before a Carlsbad event. These notes cover the answers we give most often.
Resort venues
Carlsbad has large resorts, including Omni La Costa on roughly 400 acres, Park Hyatt Aviara on 250 acres, the Westin Carlsbad and the Sheraton Carlsbad. Several entrances can confuse a first-time visitor, so name the exact lobby or building in your request.
Campuses and offices
Palomar Airport Road is the commercial corridor, and companies such as TaylorMade, at 5540 Fermi Court, and Thermo Fisher Scientific have Carlsbad sites. Send visitor entrances in advance so that a first visit starts smoothly, and add the building number whenever a campus has more than one.
Arrivals from the air
Guests may fly into McClellan-Palomar, San Diego International, or farther away. Group the flights by time and send them to us as a list.
Arrivals by rail
Carlsbad Village station, at 2695 State Street, and Carlsbad Poinsettia both serve COASTER trains. Amtrak’s Pacific Surfliner also stops at both, according to Wikipedia. We can meet a guest from either station.
Cars for a larger group
An SUV seats up to six. For larger parties, ask about more than one vehicle when you book and we confirm what is possible.
