Hotel Marisol Coronado

10/10 Excellent

"Missing a parking, 2 hour during the day are not convenient."

Coronado Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay! The location is perfect and the staff were all wonderful. We walked to lunch, activities at the Hotel Del. It was a mile from where my son was playing soccer. So convenient to everything we had to do. Our kids loves taking the shuttle to the Loews Hotel. They enjoyed the cinnamon rolls in the morning and the coffee! We will definitely stay again next year for the Holiday Cup!"
