Best Hotels in Coronado

Coronado is a resort city, sprawling on a peninsula across the bay from downtown San Diego, and a mecca for surfers and sunbathers. It is regularly voted by Dr. Beach to be the best beach in the whole country. The wide swathes of sand are lined with gourmet restaurants, hotels, glamorous old mansions, galleries, and theatres. There's so much to do, particularly watersports — from sailing to gondola cruises. Our pick of the best hotels in Coronado is a gorgeous lodge-style property a short walk from the beach.

For romance

• 1906 Lodge is perfect for a couples' holiday. This beautifully renovated lodge is just a short walk from the beach, and the hotel makes your sunbathing experience as hassle-free as possible by providing free beach chairs. The boutique rooms are elegant and warm and look out to the landscaped garden where shaded leafy terraces promise romantic evenings in. A secluded, yet centrally located beachside getaway. Dreamy!
