The residents of Tavarua Senior Apartments are less than one fourth of a mile from a major supermarket,
pharmacy, restaurants, coffee shop, library, park and the Carlsbad Senior Center, and near Downtown Carlsbad and the beach. Additionally, residents are located within 500 feet of a North County Transit District BREZE bus stop to minimize commutes and lessen pollution.
