The Westin Carlsbad Resort and Spa

Operated by Grand Pacific Resorts, HPA successfully processed all the entitlements for approval and construction of the Westin Carlsbad Resort and Spa (71 rooms and 36 time-share units) located near the Legoland theme park and The Crossings golf course.  Entitlements included all city discretionary permits, including an amendment to the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan, and a Local Coastal Program amendment through the Coastal Commission.  Key to the approval was a successful negotiation with the Coastal Commission on low cost visitor accommodations.  The resort has been constructed and is in full operation.
