CORONADO, CA – After a stunning $600 million renovation, the iconic Hotel del Coronado is shining brighter than ever — blending its Victorian roots with modern luxury across five distinct neighborhoods. Whether you're planning a sun-soaked summer getaway or a winter escape (yes, San Diego really does have perfect weather all year long), The Del offers something for every traveler.

But this isn’t just a hotel — it’s a destination: THE PERFECT STAYCATION! Let me tell you why.


Did you know there are SIX different neighborhoods to stay at at the Hotel Del Coronado? It is like the Choose Your Own Adventure Books. Which one will you choose?


VICTORIAN: History & Heritage Step back in time in the heart of the hotel — the original 1888 red-roofed Victorian building. Walk the same halls as royalty and Hollywood legends. It's perfect for guests who appreciate classic charm and want to stay where the story of The Del began.


THE CABANAS: Poolside Energy For those who crave sunshine and social vibes, The Cabanas put you steps from the lively pool deck and beach. With modern interiors and easy access to activities, this neighborhood is great for families and couples who want to be in the action.


THE VIEWS: Peaceful Pacific Outlook Modern, stylish, and aptly named — The Views offers sweeping ocean panoramas. Enjoy your morning coffee on a balcony with sea breezes and sunset views. Ideal for those who love serenity with a contemporary edge.


BEACH VILLAGE: Luxury & Privacy Tucked away for VIP guests, this private enclave of beachfront cottages and villas offers butler service, private pools, and direct access to the sand. Beach Village is perfect for multi-generational families, intimate celebrations, or anyone seeking privacy without sacrificing luxury.


SHORE HOUSE: Coastal Chic Living The newest addition, Shore House blends residential-style comfort with elevated service. It feels like your own coastal condo — with full resort perks. Great for extended stays, friends’ getaways, or travelers who love home-like space with a touch of glam.


And once you pick your neighborhood....think of the endless things to do:

Let’s make your next weekend feel like a five-star getaway!


Oh, and one more cool tidbit, becauase traveling and staying at historic buildings comes with a little mystery... because the Hotel del Coronado isn't just a beachfront resort — it's a living time capsule of California's Gilded Age, standing proudly since 1888. Originally built as a seaside escape for the elite, The Del was once the largest resort hotel in the world — and the first to use electric lighting powered by its own power plant.


Every hallway has a story, and yes — some of them are a little crooked. Literally. Wander the Victorian building and you’ll notice slanted floors, part of the original architecture that gives the hotel its quirky charm.


Join a guided history tour and you might uncover secrets like the hidden room behind the Crown Room, where dignitaries and celebrities once shared private dinners. Or hear tales of when Edward, the Prince of Wales, first met Wallis Simpson at a Del social event — a romance that changed British history.


And then there’s Kate Morgan, the mysterious woman whose 1892 death still whispers through the hallways — giving The Del a reputation as one of the most elegant haunted hotels in America.


Whether you're an architecture buff, a history lover, or just curious, taking a Heritage Tour of The Del is a must-do experience. From its Queen Anne turrets to its red shingled roof and storied past, this national historic landmark continues to enchant guests more than a century later.


Ok, who is in? We can't wait to book your staycation or vacation at Hotel Del. The beach and beauty of Hotel Del is calling you.
