Hotel Del Coronado, San Diego

Decorated in warm tones, the rooms of the Victorian Building reflect the history of the hotel, whilst the Ocean Towers and California Cabana guestrooms have a more modern feel with citrus colours and décor inspired by southern California. The Beach Village – with its separate waterfront cottages and villas – offers ultimate seclusion, complete with fireplaces, marble bathrooms and private patios or balconies.

The hotel boasts its own secluded beach – just a stone’s throw away from the property – perfect for building sandcastles, surfing and soaking in glorious sunsets. When you’re not at the beach, you can indulge in some pampering with an ocean-inspired treatment at the hotel’s seaside Spa and Salon. With steam rooms, Jacuzzis and a terrace with its own infinity pool, guests are invited to relax whilst taking in the sights and sounds of the Pacific. The hotel has a range of dining options, but its signature restaurant – 1500 Ocean – is a real treat, serving mouth-watering seasonal dishes using local artisan products and inspired by the Californian coast.
