FAQS

No, we are only permitted to provide RV camping. Tent camping is available at Carlsbad State Beach (760-438-3143) or Guajome Park (760-724-4489).

Paradise by the Sea does not have age restrictions for RVs. We only ask that your RV be presentable in appearance, clean, rust-free and legally registered as a Recreational Vehicle. Thank you.

Island sites are smaller 30AMP (usually 30-38 feet long). Premium sites are medium 30AMP sites (usually 35-45 feet long).

Both sites offer 50 AMP electrical hookups for larger RV’s, and allow parking for 1 RV and 1 car. The Back-In is 45-60 feet long and wider than the Pull-Thru, while the Pull-Thru is 60 feet long. We ask that our front island Pull-Thrus be reserved for Motorcoaches.

Each site is paved and includes full hook-ups (water, sewer, electric, cable and wi-fi), along with a picnic table.

Check-in time is from 2pm-11pm. Our office closes at 9pm during Summer, and 5pm during Winter. After the office is closed, our evening security will greet you and guide you to your site. Our resort gate closes at midnight.

Our beach is approximately 50 yards wide. You may swim, fish and surf here in Oceanside. The beach is currently rocky from Winter storms. For swimming, we recommend the Pier or Harbor beaches.

Dogs are not allowed on any beach in San Diego other than the Del Mar Dog Beach (3006 Sandy Ln, Del Mar, California 92014) and the east end of Carlsbad’s Agua Hedionda Lagoon (see your Resort Guide for map location doggie paw).

Here at Paradise, we strive to treat everyone with the same professionalism and kindness. If you bring your dog to our resort, you need to pay the pet fee. (The fee includes the maintenance of the doggie areas so that it stays smelling fresh, as well as the cost of doggie bags that are offered at various locations throughout the resort and beach/park walkway.)

If there is a particular site you prefer, you can select the Site Lock feature for an additional fee. Otherwise, the booking system automatically chooses the best available site for your dates and site type.

We do not give refunds for unused portions of your stay.

For late check-outs, please inquire inside at the office. Half-day stays are good until 5 pm. The cost is ½ of the daily site charge.
