The resort community of Aviara is perched on a hillside in south Carlsbad,overlooking the Pacific Ocean and the Batiquitos Lagoon. Named "Master Planned Community of the Year" in 1995, it is one of the most beautiful and most successful residential developments in Southern California.
After many years of careful planning, the first neighbor-hood opened in 1989.
At the heart of the 1,000-acre Aviara community is the elegant 329-room Four Seasons Resort Aviara. Guests enjoy spectacular views, lush grounds, a popular lobby bar, four distinctive restaurants, personal services, a full service spa, and stylish shops. Arranged around the base of the hotel are 240 villas offering timeshare ownership.
The Four Seasons Resort Aviara features a spectacular 18-hole Arnold Palmer-designed golf course, which is open to the public as well as to hotel guests. Top quality individual and group golf instruction is available at the Aviara Golf Academy. The Tennis Center is a world-class facility with courts of clay, grass, and synthetic surfaces.
The Argyle Restaurant at the Four Seasons Aviara Golf Club, is the best kept secret for a quiet breakfast or private business lunch. For a special treat, ask for a table on the patio over-looking the spectacular 18th green.
Fortunate Aviara residents enjoy fine neighborhoods with well-maintained homes, lush landscaping, and highly-rated schools. Here, one can find a variety of lifestyles, including luxury executive homes, gated communities, condominiums, and lavish custom homes. Aviara is comprised of 1,384 homes in sixteen different communities.
All age groups call Aviara their home, including singles, young families, empty nesters, and retired people. It is a move-up community for residents from all over San Diego County. People from Los Angeles and Orange County escape the congestion, and Midwesterners the cold weather, to relax in their second homes here.
Parents are proud of the Aviara Oaks elementary and middle school which is within walking distance of most homes. Miles of sidewalks make Aviara the perfect place for strolling. Hikers, runners, and bicyclists take to the scenic 2 1/2 miles of the Batiquitos Nature Trail on evenings and weekends. It provides a beautiful getaway overlooking the Batiquitos Lagoon.
With the beautifully designed, world-class neighborhoods and sweeping golf course, lagoon, and ocean views, there are few places as desirable to live as Aviara.
