What is the vibe of Carlsbad, CA (northern San Diego) like? Thinking of booking a few nights there over 4th of July weekend. Never been to southern California and most things are sold out.

I live in Carlsbad and love it! It’s quite a drive to the southern part but you have one of the best beaches right here (Carlsbad State Beach) really nice local restaurants and breweries as well. There’s an outlet mall here if you’re into shopping and you can drive down 101 which is the road right by the coast and go hang out at Encinitas, only 15 mins drive. Tons of restaurants and a great vibe there too. Let me know if you need more recommendations like coffee spots/restaurants etc

If you get down to Encinitas, Raul’s is the best burrito around imo (which is no light feat)

Very Republican, if at all that is a concern for you.

Haha he’s right, some people would have an issue these days. Not me :)

To all the people searching PGs, i would suggest not to go with any online bookings like nestaway, zolostays.

The ideal thing is to land in hyderabad, book a hotel for two days and then go to office nearby area and search for PGs, you will get 100+ pgs in each location. Have a look at the room size, ventilation , bed size , if required taste the food also before booking PG. In case you need flat then also you will see " To let " boards everywhere, just call the number

My wife got a job that requires us to relocate to San Diego. We have never lived there and know little about the city. We are planning to rent. We stayed in a hotel in little Italy and really loved the vibe there, but it’s too expensive for us. Are there other neighborhoods with similar vibes - restaurants, bars, lively, good for walking, clean, safe, young, diverse and accessible that are more affordable? Please share recommendations. How much should we reasonably budget to rent a 2bd/2bath?

How is AirBnB ethical when its business model exists through legal arbitrage? It has functionally created rental property service without being subject to the same taxes and liability insurance of a regular hotel company due to the dubious claim of “It’s on the web.”

Just got a “Sheraton Vacations” special offer to basically get 5 nights at a Florida property for $250.

I read the fine print and other than a need to be flexible in terms of when you book, it doesn’t seem like there is a catch.

Anyone familiar with this “promotion” and what the downside might be? Or are they just looking to drive revenue to their other areas (restaurants, spa, etc) with a cheap room?
