America’s beachfront legend

HOTEL DEL CORONADO SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA, USA

Hotel del Coronado in San Diego, California has attracted the country’s most discerning travelers for over 132 years. Situated on 28 gorgeous beachfront acres, the hotel’s grand Victorian architecture and soaring red turrets are a rare find; an iconic California landmark on one of America’s most beloved beaches, where guests enjoy the simple luxuries of sun, sea and precious time spent together. Always changing yet everlasting, the resort recently invested in a complete reimagination that will be completed by 2021. The efforts will preserve the resort’s illustrious heritage while creating exciting new experiences for modern-day guests, including a newly enhanced Cabana pool and beachfront Sun Deck experience.

These beachfront and pool-front rooms offer balconies with spectacular views, and ground-level rooms that boast chic outdoor terraces with a striped cabana, fire pit and plush seating areas for enjoying glittering orange sunsets over the Pacific Ocean. The rooms’ interiors have a neutral color palette with pops of blue and gold that reflect the ocean and the sun.
