We are members of the Hilton Club,NYC so used some of our points to stay here.It was billed as having views over the Ocean-well yes but at least 3 miles away.However it was a beautiful apartment,very quiet and just what we needed-it was planned as a rest break.So some pics of the apartment-a 1 bedroom-

An incredible deep bath,identical to those in the NYC Hilton Club.

The funny thing here was that this is a recent resort that has stalled due to the GFC.They also own the resort next door which is a Sheraton.So our TV had SPG channel-in a Hilton resort!
If here with the kids or grandkids this is a pretty good place-it overlooks Legoland.Also for the shopper of the family the Carlsbad Premium outlets are less than a mile away.On the other side of the resort to the Sheraton is the Crossings Golf club that reminded me a little of Barnbougle but with a lot more landscaping.If you are into night life,Forget it.
You can pay to come here without being an HGVC member and the rates are often pretty reasonable.
 
Only about 30 miles-though you would not like to do the commute in the morning peak hours down I-5.
