Beach Village at The Del Curio Collection

We’re currently staying at the Beach Village at Hotel Del Coronado, and something really touching happened that we just had to share. Our daughter Athena set up a little seashell and rock shop right outside our room — just a fun little activity she came up with on her own. We casually mentioned it to the Concierge Team, and what happened next totally blew us away. Alyssa, Alex, Sasha, Laura, and Will all came by and bought from her shop — contributing real money and making her feel like a true entrepreneur. They didn’t have to do that. But they did — with big smiles and kind words that made her day (and ours). It’s little things like this that make a vacation unforgettable. The concierge team here doesn’t just assist — they care. They’ve been quick to respond via text for anything we’ve needed, but this was next-level hospitality. It was thoughtful, personal, and just plain sweet. We’re still here enjoying our stay, but already this trip has become one of our most special thanks to their kindness.

Beautiful location. Pros: spacious rooms, clean for the most part (bathroom floor was a little dirty), gorgeous views, private pools and jacuzzi for those staying at the beach villages. Not a lot of people were in the pools. Staff were friendly and they did turn down service w/o you asking. Kept our water stocked. Great place to walk around. Cons: parking was confusing for beach village. There’s construction going on so once you get out of the parking garage do not use the elevator. Take the stairs to exit out to some bushes and then take a left to go to the lobby down some stairs. We went to the main hotel instead and had to get golf carted back to the beach village. John who was part of valet was really nice in assisting. Jay at the front desk was great as well. Also didn’t like that the front door had a window from top to bottom. There wasn’t any curtains or blinds to block out the light from the front door. This left us in a brightly lit room when we’re trying to go to sleep. The pictures attached is the light coming into the room. Made it hard to sleep and would benefit having a blind to cover the window if needed. Your neighbors are also very close to you. The patio is divided by a thin wall you can basically hope over. If they’re outside talking in the morning, you’ll be able to hear them.

Disappointing in many ways stay at the Beach Village at The Del. So many mistakes. Most of all taking an additional an unauthorized $2,500 from my account for our stay for 5 nights. Promise i will get back the overcharged amount in 7 business days! What a joke. Having only been given access to our, to be honest expensive room, at 7pm on the first night was ridiculous. Having housekeeping only coming each morning at 8.30 is a joke. Room wasn't made up once in 5 days as we weren't getting up to placate housekeeping. What quality summer holiday hotel sends housekeeping to a room at 8.30 every morning???? By the way the beach is closed for 50% of the year because of pollution. They never tell you this in their promotion if the Del on the Pacific. Parking is a disgrace, minimum $59 a night for guests.
