The Bower Coronado is simply what the island wanted. It’s a brand new, modern 39-room boutique property that a few of our purchasers have already made their go-to resort in San Diego.

If you happen to worth aesthetics—like Japanese minimalist wabi-sabi design components—walkability to the guts of Coronado’s eating places and outlets, and straightforward seashore entry, it is a match. It doesn’t have a few of the huge resort facilities like a pool or spa, however you’re in luck as a result of these can be found throughout the road at Lodge del Coronado.

We additionally provide VIP facilities to reinforce your keep at The Bower Coronado, and I’ll share what to anticipate on this assessment beneath.

Rooms at The Bower Coronado

All rooms at The Bower are designed with consolation in thoughts and considerate particulars. Friends sleep on Stearns & Foster mattresses with Frette linens and begin their days with Fellows pour-over espresso constructed from regionally roasted beans. Bogs are stocked with Le Labo facilities, luxurious robes, and embody a Dyson Supersonic hairdryer for a premium contact.

Further in-room facilities embody:

• Flat-screen TV for leisure
• Complimentary Wi-Fi to remain linked
• Each day housekeeping and night turndown service
• In-room secure for peace of thoughts
• Minibar stocked with snacks and drinks
• A well-placed desk for work or leisure

Right here’s a breakdown of the primary room sorts, with mattress configuration and occupancy. Notice that the room measurement for many rooms is about 250 sq. ft, with the Premium Rooms and ADA rooms a bit bigger. This data isn’t on the resort’s web site.

Usually, I might advocate you keep away from a street-view room, however I make an exception right here. The Bower instantly faces Lodge del Coronado, the ocean, and the seashore over Orange Avenue. It’s a fairly view of a surprising Victorian resort that provides you a way of place.

Through the vacation season, you’re overlooking the sunshine present on the timber, which is de facto neat. Additionally neat, for my part, is watching the folks and the children, as they see the lights and “snowfall” and benefit from the property.

Coronado’s Solely Rooftop Bar

The Bower Coronado’s standout eating expertise is Dive, its rooftop bar and restaurant. Providing open-air seating and panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, it’s the proper place to take pleasure in a drink whereas taking within the sundown.

Dive serves breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner. The menu options seasonal dishes made with regionally sourced substances, served in a heat, social environment. Plus, comfortable hour specials run on weekdays.

Facilities and Actions

Whereas The Bower Coronado doesn’t isn’t a full-service resort, it covers the necessities effectively:

• Canine-friendly rooms with treats and pet beds (Lanai degree solely)
• Foyer bar/lounge serving espresso, snacks, and cocktails
• Rooftop bar and restaurant with open-air seating and views

I take into account the resort a extra peaceable complement to Lodge del Coronado. To make use of The Del’s facilities, it’s important to e book day passes, spa therapies, or health courses by means of that resort. And, make reservations at its eating places prematurely. The outlets, eating places, and gardens/walkways (The Views constructing, The Cabanas constructing, and pool require key entry) are open to the general public.

Is It Good for Households?

Sure! The Bower is nice for the correct of household.

If you happen to’re touring with design-conscious teenagers or desire a boutique-style stick with seashore entry and walkability, The Bower works rather well. The Double Queen and Lanai Queen Queen rooms comfortably sleep 4, and the situation makes it simple to discover the guts of Coronado on foot or by bike.

Nonetheless, there’s no pool, no children’ membership, and no resort programming. If swimming is important, you can purchase a day cross to Lodge del Coronado pool or seashore areas through ResortPass or by means of the resort’s on-line Experiences Web page. You possibly can select whether or not you’d like Del Seashore, pool cabanas, spa entry, and different seasonal choices. They promote out quick, so e book prematurely.

Coronado is our most requested neighborhood in San Diego by households, although for a superb motive. It’s beautiful.
