Outdoors are king in the Aviara area
In Aviara, wide streets accented by palm trees carry a collection of modern homes that place residents just 2 miles from the Pacific Coast. This sun-soaked Southern California neighborhood embodies Carlsbad’s outdoor lifestyle, not only minutes from the beach but also adjacent to the Batiquitos Lagoon and home to a resort and the Aviara Golf Club. “We’re an outdoor community,” says Gerry Burchard of Burchard & Associates with eXp Realty, a local Realtor who has 40 years of experience. “People want to be outside.” The area is also by Interstate 5, for commutes along the coast to places like San Diego and Laguna Beach.
Many residents enjoy memberships at The Park Hyatt Aviara Resort.

Turn-of-the-century homes offer space and seclusion

Pacific Ocean is a constant pull
The Park Hyatt Aviara Resort, Golf Club & Spa and the Four Seasons Residence Club Aviara, San Diego, fill a southern pocket of the neighborhood. Though close, the resorts and Aviara’s residential developments have a symbiotic relationship, Burchard says. “There really isn’t a problem,” Burchard says. “It’s not like you’re next door to Disney World.” Plus, the Park Hyatt Aviara includes the Aviara Golf Club and the Aviara Racquet Club. Locals can get memberships to both clubs for unlimited golf, tennis and pickleball. The 18-hole golf course is also open to the public and was designed by Arnold Palmer. The Batiquitos Lagoon State Marine Conservation Area, just south of Aviara’s homes, has multiple trails.
Still, the oceanfront is tops in residents’ hearts. "People are here for the beaches,” Burchard says. Aviara is closest to the South Carlsbad State Beach and South Ponto Beach, where visitors can surf, swim or simply watch the sun go down. “When the sun sets, you’ll see thousands of people along the shoreline watching the sunset,” Burchard says.
