BETHESDA, Maryland — The former Sheraton Carlsbad in Carlsbad, California, will debut as Hotel Solea, Autograph Collection in spring 2026, following a multimillion-dollar renovation.
Hotel Solea boasts 70,000 square feet of elevated indoor/outdoor wedding and meeting spaces. The conference center offers a variety of flexible spaces, including a partitionable 8,010-square-foot ballroom, more than 20 breakout spaces and a grand lawn with an atrium and terrace for more intimate social events.
Hotel Solea is located just minutes from Carlsbad Village, The Flower Fields, sandy beaches, hiking trails and golf courses, and it even has a private entrance to Legoland theme park. The reimagined hotel will boast a fully reimagined pool and cabana experience, and the property will be home to Verise, a new Italian restaurant and bar featuring seasonal, locally sourced cuisine.
Alongside Hotel Solea, The Westin Carlsbad Resort & Spa will continue to provide a refined coastal escape, featuring Ocean Pearl Spa with ocean-inspired treatments, the WestinWORKOUT Fitness Center with gear-lending kits, and 20|TWENTY restaurant showcasing California coastal cuisine with sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean.
The renovation will transform the property into a boutique-inspired, botanical escape that blends modern design with coastal energy for leisure travelers, couples and groups seeking a design-forward stay.
