The Resort
One-third sun. One-third
sand. One-third fairytale.
Rising from water's edge on the quaint Island
of Coronado in San Diego, the
Hotel del Coronado
is considered one of America's most
beautiful resorts. A classic
historic hotel, The Del was built in 1888
and designated a National Historic Landmark
in 1977. Today, The Del offers travelers
every contemporary convenience in an enchanting
Victorian atmosphere. It is a combination
that moved USA Today to call the The Del
"one of the top ten resorts in the world."
For those seeking a romantic getaway, The
Del offers a quintessential Southern California
resort experience. It's also the perfect
family friendly vacation destination, offering
abundant recreation options as well as seasonal
teen and children's programs.
The Del Spa
When it opened in 1888, the Hotel del
Coronado was considered a premier vacation
and health destination, where the sea-swept
air was both preservative and restorative.
Although early visitors certainly appreciated
the therapeutic effects of saltwater bathing
and fresh sea air, these weren't the seashore's
only allure. Victorians were also drawn
to the soul-satisfying aesthetics the seascape
provided. The Del's unparalleled oceanfront
location gave early visitors the chance
to enjoy one of nature's most inherently
beautiful landscapes: sand, sun and sea.
The Del's state-of-the-art Spa includes
21 treatment rooms, hydrotherapy, relaxation
areas for men and women and steam rooms.
Opening April 2007, guests will also be
able to unwind at the Spa's expansive private
terrace overlooking the magnificent Windsor
Lawn and the Pacific Ocean at this Coronado
spa resort
Spa services include a variety of skincare
and massage techniques, full body treatments
including body exfoliation, herbal and mineral
body wraps and mud therapy, water therapies,
foot and eye enhancements. The full-service
salon offers hair, nail, skin care and make-up
services. And the oceanfront fitness center
will help you work out your tension. Treat
your teenager to one of The Del's specialty
designed spa teen packages such as the Del's
Lucky Chic Package, which includes a massage,
manicure, pedicure and facial.
