the Omni Hotel and Resort in La Costa California how to spend a perfect stay here in this video
I'm sharing with you all the helpful tips that you need to know I just finished playing
pickleball and I'm so excited to check in and relax coming up
[Music] and if you're new here yell I'm Christine Lozada with where in the world is CL and I
make travel videos every week to help you get up get out and go travel so if you like
to travel consider subscribing I didn't realize how humongous this Resort is I just got driven
to my room by the nicest valet guy they will drive you all over this Resort because it
is 600 rooms across this property
[Music] let's dive in with the first thing that we all want to know which is like what
what are the rooms like
[Music]
[Music] foreign [Music] super stoked about how spacious the rooms are and how well decorated
and how modern they are I just got in and I'm super stoked this is the room type that
I'm in and I have a full bath in here which is really nice I have a separate bedroom from
bathroom area and I have a spot where I can sit down and get some work done and also relax
on the couch so I'm I'm super excited to be here the Omni La Costa Resort and Spa has
actually been around for a long time it's been around since 1965 and has undergone like
a lot of Renovations over the years and it's now owned by Omni let's talk about some of
the top things to do here and the first big thing that people are here for is golf there
are two championship golf courses here there's the Legends course and the Champions Course
and a lot of the big golf events such as the PGA Tour has been here and so you'll see and
I asked that about half of the people who stay here are here to play golf the next thing
that people come here for is the fitness and wellness and there's an amazing Athletic Club
with state-of-the-art facilities that are here with actually a lot of group classes
and they recently made the change where if you were a guest here you don't have to pay
for the classes so you can just come in for and there's a lot of classes per day so take
advantage of that the other thing that's on site is the PFC Fitness Camp and this was
actually pretty cool so they had like a fitness center where they're doing classroom time
followed by workout time and helping people you know to basically lose tons of pounds
whether it's five pounds or a hundred pounds and so a lot of people were taking their workout
outside and then I could see them in the classroom learning about like nutrition and wellness
as well [Music] the next main activity on site is the relaxing part so whether it's
the pools or their very famous spa or you I was even impressed with how much shopping
there is there's a lot being offered here
when it comes to pools there are eight on site including ones with slides and they have
games oh it's helpful to know that this is a family friendly property I saw a lot of
kids here both golfing and just hanging out but they also have an arcade which is actually
look pretty fun [Music]
the other thing to do here is relax and go to the spa it's super nice and this world-class
Spa has all the treatments you can think of and a really great place to just have a nice
hangout and there's a private pool and relaxation lounges here as well and by the way if you're
getting some value out of this video cheers that like button consider subscribing and
if you're looking for the latest rates more info is in the description below on that as
well as a full blog post that goes along with this but let's talk about what I came here
for which is their tennis center and specifically their pickleball courts at the tennis center
you're gonna find a lot you're gonna find 17 hard and Clay courts and they also have
four pickleball courts here and so as a guest at the resort you have access to come here
and play tennis play Pickleball they do have an open place schedule for pickleball and
some clinics that you can come to for as little as thirty dollars per hour and if you have
guests that are coming in they do have to pay a guest fee but you are welcome to enjoy
the facilities and if you want more info on pickleball here and pickleball in the area
make sure you check out my other video info in the description below but let's talk about
some of the dining options on the property because there's a lot here foreign there are
several dining options around the Omni my favorite being the view for breakfast which
we'll talk about but the one that it's known for is Bob's Steakhouse a dinner spot you
should definitely check out is Bob's they do steaks properly here I've been before it's
a great spot to come to one thing to note though is that the hours are kind of short
like dinner is five to eight so tonight I already know I'm gonna miss that because I'll
get back late tonight [Music] the other restaurant that's available for dinner is the view and
spelled Vue but has a v-i-e-w because it looks out amongst the golf course unfortunately
there was some construction while I was here so it wasn't the best view but it's still
really nice and one thing I love about sitting outside for dinner is that they have heat
lamps underneath the umbrellas so even when it's cool outside you can still have a warm
dining experience I will admit that sounds at this restaurant both inside and outside
can be a problem and so if there are large parties dining around you you will have a
very tough time hearing the people you are sitting with so that's just one thing to know
the staff was super kind and let us move into the members Lounge next door so that we could
actually eat our dinner and hear ourselves both thinking and talking and we had a really
nice dinner we ate mainly the fish we had the halibut and the sea bass and we got a
few other items we got the shrimp scampi we also had the Cal Amari it was a really nice
pleasant dinner and also the staff is really friendly I did come back another day and I
sat at the bar which is also super nice one thing I didn't expect to be as tasty as it
was was the soup I had the sushi and I also had their Caldo chicken soup which was really
delicious one of the things that's really awesome about view is well you get a view
of the golf course there's a little bit of construction going on right now but even if
it's a little bit cooler in the morning you've got these heaters and the heaters they're
actually really nice and warm but I ordered the croissant waffles with the side of Katsu
chicken and Nico what did you order the eggs benedict with Canadian bacon what's the verdict
delicious of course
like three minutes after it's come bye nice all right well let's try the one first this
is not this part is not what I expected it's more like a this is a piece of chicken
I don't know why I don't eat on camera
so this restaurant is only available for breakfast and dinner it's not open for lunch overall
a nice and pleasant experience for breakfast you have a few more options on the property
with the spa Cafe as well as the splash Cafe at the pool so those are a couple more options
and one thing is you should actually check out the marketplace there's a lot being offered
in there if you've never had mood time Creamery before you have to it's really delicious ice
cream and obviously they don't have it at breakfast but make sure you come back and
check it out and get a scoop
this is a legit legit place if you forgot anything some actually quite nice gifts to
give someone while you're visiting Carlsbad it's a great spot to come to so what I ordered
was the breakfast burrito they also have a carne asada breakfast burrito and an egg white
breakfast burrito I just wanted a regular breakfast burrito they have a little salsa
they provide with it I was a little nervous because I was asking how long does it take
to make the burrito because I'm rushing around a little bit this morning and they said it
takes a minute and a half because they just warm it up I was like oh I've used like frozen
burritos but this is not a frozen burrito [Music]
in fact it's a very tasty burrito yum
[Music] I got some egg and bacon cheese potato all the right things make magic happen give
me a stomach ache right before play Michael Ball and one thing you won't miss and can't
miss is the bar bar traza is located right at the entrance so as you're walking to the
lobby you'll see it they have a fantastic cocktail menu and a nice wine menu as well
but it's a great like little sports bar area where you can sit and have some drinks they
also have some bites there as well so bartraza is another one to check out the Omni La Costa
such an amazing stay at this property if you had some fun with me in this video cheers
