The oceanfront cottages and villas of Beach Village at The Del echo the coastal architectural style of its sister resort, the Hotel Del Coronado, with white clapboard siding and red roofs creating a California beach bungalow feel. Located directly on Coronado’s award-winning beach, Beach Village at The Del offers an exclusive setting with private pools and Jacuzzis scattered throughout the lushly landscaped enclave.

The facilities

The hotel sits on 28 acres of pristine beach, with year-round swimming, kayaking and surfing. An expansive private terrace and vanishing-edge pool overlook the magnificent Windsor Lawn and the Pacific Ocean. Guests at the Beach Village at The Del can enjoy pampering treatments, soothing hydrotherapy tubs or a relaxing steam at the world-class spa before dining on signature California cuisine at 1500 Ocean. Dishes incorporate the freshest local ingredients, and the vast wine library has a label to compliment any culinary creation. The hotel’s chic wine bar, Eno, offers weekly tasting and pairing classes.

The rooms

Sophisticated and spacious cottage accommodations are luxurious respites from the everyday. Each cottage or villa has a private balcony or terrace, many of which feature a private day tub or fire pit. Cottages and villas come standard with large, flat-panel TVs, cosy fireplaces, 400-thread count linens, five-fixture bathrooms with separate showers and top-of-the-line gourmet kitchens.
