Our romantic seaside honeymoon at The Beach Village, Coronado

Checking into our private beachfront cottage in the Beach Village at The Del, we knew we had chosen the perfect destination for our honeymoon. Immediately we found ourselves enveloped luxury and comfort of seaside charm. With our spectacular ocean view we couldn't wait to explore the island and San Diego.

On the first night we took a romantic sunset stroll along the white sand beaches of Coronado Island with soothing sound of the waves breaking.
On our return to the resort we dinned at the resort's world class restaurant, 1500 OCEAN. The restaurant and menu were exquisite, a warm inviting interior with cabana or oceanfront terrace seating. Everything was delectable from the appetizers to desert. Another evening we enjoyed wines from around the world at the ENO, a state of the art wine bar, which combined all of my guiltiest pleasures, wine, cheese, and chocolate.

After indulging in the cuisine we had an amazing time exploring the island on bikes, boats, and surf boards. We feel in love with the island while sailing around the beautiful Coronado Bay. Surfing was our favorite activity and during our week stay, I like to think we're both professionals...well almost.

No vacation would be complete without a luxurious spa experience. The Spa at The Del is without a doubt one of the best spas. We enjoyed a relaxing couples massage, relaxed on the Spa's expansive private terrace and vanishing edge pool overlooking the magnificent Windsor Lawn and the Pacific Ocean. It was truly a world-class spa.

Our Beach Village concierge was amazing helping us explore San Diego, including the delicious Italian cuisine in Little Italy, to the fun and lively Gaslamp Quarter of Downtown San Diego, fantastic shopping, and major attractions such as SeaWorld, the world-famous San Diego Zoo, Wild Animal Park. We loved how close we were to the city center but still could escape to our private island getaway.

Nestled on Coronado Island, Beach Village went above and beyond our expectations. With the warm Californian sun, white sand beaches, and beautiful blue water of the Pacific, Coronado is the perfect island escape.
