If your business needs a festive space to host a holiday party, the City of Carlsbad is a good place to be, because there's a large selection of party venues both public and private. With the clock ticking down to the start of the holiday season, if you haven't booked space for your year-end celebration, you might want to pick up the phone today.
To help you with your decision, here are some ideas.
A lovely setting for holiday festivities is the clubhouse at The Crossings at Carlsbad, which features the acclaimed Canyons restaurant and party accommodations for groups ranging from four to 250. The clubhouse's floor-to-ceiling windows and spacious veranda provide fantastic views of the golf course and the Pacific Ocean.
"As an award-winning restaurant with ocean views, our wonderful craftsman-style clubhouse has four separate dining areas, so we can host groups of up to 250," said Gary Glaser, the general manager of The Crossings. "We are the perfect full-service facility to host a holiday party."
Or if you're looking for a venue where you can hear the ocean waves and smell the salt air, Heritage Hall at the City of Carlsbad's Magee Park offers a historic setting and seating for as many as 75 guests. When combined with Magee Park's picnic area, Heritage Hall, which served as the City of Carlsbad's original city hall and police station, can accommodate groups as large as 500.
You can also rent space at any of the city's three community centers, Harding, Calavera Hills or Stagecoach, and the senior center. City meeting rooms can handle groups as large as 75 people. Consult the City of Carlsbad website, www.carlsbadca.gov, for more information on facility rental.
There are also numerous hotels, restaurants and pubs that can host your company party, no matter how large. The City of Carlsbad is fortunate to be home to several world-class resorts, all of which offer a party location that your company won't soon forget.
The newest resort, the Hilton Carlsbad Oceanfront Resort & Spa, offers ocean views from Chandler's Restaurant & Lounge and from the ballroom outdoor patio, which can accommodate up to 450 guests. The city also is home to the Park Hyatt Aviara, La Costa Resort & Spa, Sheraton Carlsbad Resort and Spa, Hilton Garden Inn Carlsbad Beach and many other attractive locations.
"Overall the market is very competitive because there are so many hotels and restaurants," said Park Hyatt Aviara Director of Sales and Marketing Jason McLaughlin. "There are certainly a lot of choices for every taste and budget.
"The Park Hyatt Aviara can host a holiday party for five people, or we can do a holiday party for 1,000 people," McLaughlin said.
There's no lack of holiday spirit at the resort. "We build a gingerbread mountain in the lobby and we have holiday trees that are decorated by local companies and sold by silent auction, and the proceeds go to the Semper Fi Foundation," which assists wounded Marines and their families, he said.
If you're not planning a corporate party for the holidays, join us for our family friendly "Holiday at the Rancho" celebration at Leo Carrillo Ranch Historic Park, from 5 to 8 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 1. Consult our website at www.carlsbadca.gov/parksandrec for more information.
Keep it in Carlsbad and make your holiday party wishes come true.
