Omni La Costa Resort & Spa Embraces Timeless Luxury with a Masterful Restoration of Classic Spanish-Style Architecture in Latest Phase of Renovations
Iconic Spa Returns to Glory with Uncovered Design Details; Guest Rooms and Meeting Spaces Receive Timeless Refresh Reminiscent of Southern California Elegance
Carlsbad, CA (March 13, 2024) – The iconic Omni La Costa Resort & Spa, California’s preeminent spa resort and destination, will soon unveil sweeping renovations designed to encapsulate the heart of the La Costa Lifestyle. Inspired by classic Spanish-style architecture, this highly anticipated redesign will transform the resort’s 400 unspoiled acres into a pinnacle of upscale and fresh, quiet elegance.
“For decades, Omni La Costa has been a world-class destination for savvy travelers, wellness seekers, and golf aficionados. This latest transformation will only further embody the ‘La Costa Lifestyle’ that is embedded throughout the resort’s grounds,” said Craig Martin, Managing Director at Omni La Costa Resort & Spa. “Since its opening in 1965, the resort has been a glamorous refuge for Hollywood’s elite; this new phase of renovation is poised to uphold the property’s longstanding position as a world-class destination for generations to come.”
Set to be unveiled in early Summer 2024, this extensive renovation will elevate the resort’s every element, from its guest rooms and villas to the spa and championship golf courses. This visionary redesign melds timeless charisma with modern sophistication, capturing La Costa's illustrious heritage while providing a contemporary haven for travelers of all kinds. Following a sweeping refresh of the resort’s lobby, bar, Costa De La Luna ballroom, and meeting spaces in 2021, the property now enters a new phase of this three-year transformation.
Led by an esteemed design team, an exquisite revitalization of the guest accommodations, award-winning spa, and Coastal Events Center is set to unfold, promising an unparalleled experience for guests and setting new standards of upscale and elegance.
Over 500 renovated guest rooms, including villas, suites, hospitality rooms and presidential suites, will unveil a fresh new look that blends history with modernity, enhancing the resort’s beloved architecture with light airy spaces, soft casual textures, and neutral tones. Fused with timeless details such as handcrafted painted tiles, dimensional abstract art and wrought ironwork, these beautiful new spaces will feel distinctly La Costa. Refreshed rooms and suites include Resort Rooms, Golf View and 1-Bedroom Suites. The suites tucked away near the Garden Pool’s courtyard, offering a “hotel-within-a-hotel” feel, will also be transformed into brighter and more vibrant room offerings while still encapsulating Spanish colonial architecture with a mid-century twist. Reimagined villas include Bedroom, Studio, Executive Suite, and 1, 2 & 3-Bedroom Suite villas.
Luxury travelers and wellness seekers have chosen the award-winning Spa at La Costa to relax and recharge since 1965 when the resort was known as the “original destination for mind, body, and sport.” The crown jewel of La Costa, the award-winning spa will undergo a sophisticated transformation, introducing serene new spaces that invite guests to unwind and rejuvenate in style. The spa’s updates will include three luxurious new salt rooms for unwinding and decompressing, refurbished steam rooms with new aromatherapy features, and new state-of-the-art equipment in the showers, locker rooms, and select treatment rooms such as the Vichy showers. The spa’s walls, now brightened with softer, quieter features, will be lined with vintage art as a nod to Omni La Costa’s historic past, when the spa was once a refuge for the world’s most powerful figures, including Richard Nixon and Jackie Kennedy.
The resort's championship golf facilities, led by renowned designer Gil Hanse, will unveil a dramatic redesign, marking the beginning of a new chapter at one of the country’s most-iconic golf resorts. Home to three consecutive NCAA Division | Women’s and Men’s Golf Championships beginning May 2024, the highly-anticipated renovation of the Champions Course welcomes a new era of golf at Omni La Costa.
Lastly, as the largest resort meeting footprint in the western United States, Omni La Costa's renovated event spaces, including the newly constructed Costa de la Luna and top-to-bottom refresh of the Coastal Events Center, are poised to host unforgettable gatherings that inspire creativity and collaboration. After the unveiling of the exquisite Costa de la Luna and event lawn in 2021, the resort continues to refresh and add even more space through 2024 with the expansion of the Coastal Events Center, featuring 100,000 square feet of dynamic spaces.
