SUGAR is a lucky dog to experience luxury hotel stays. Thanks to dog dad’s hotel points. SUGAR experienced many Starwood Hotel stays. Last weekend, we traveled to San Diego and stayed at dog friendly Sheraton Carlsbad Resort & Spa.

Dog Friendly Sheraton Carlsbad

Last year, August 2015, Sheraton Carlsbad Resort & Spa invited SUGAR for a weekend stay to promote their dog friendly amenities. Read our post: Family Fun Dog Friendly Sheraton Carlsbad

Due to our delightful experience, every time we visit San Diego we book our stays at Sheraton Carlsbad. For the past months, they’ve been fully booked, so glad that last weekend they had availability.

Dog friendly Sheraton Carlsbad provided us {SUGAR} a very special room, the Grand Pacific Suite. The suite was newly remodeled with a modern decor. We are so happy that Sheraton is opting for a non-carpeting flooring.

Love the non-slip wooden floor, perfect for kids and dog safety. The room design and color schemes are well coordinated with the simple clean-lined furniture. The bathroom and bedroom lighting fixtures contribute to the room’s mood and functionality.

SUGAR had a very relaxing stay. The bedroom’s sliding door open up to the patio which provided an easy access to the garden lawn. The spacious suite provided lots of room for SUGAR to roam around. The wood flooring definitely provided better air circulation. SUGAR slept so soundly.

Lots of Golden Thanks, Sheraton Carlsbad for a pawsome suite stay!
