The Hotel del Coronado, part of the Curio Collection by Hilton, has undergone a complete re-imagining as part of a $400 million master plan. LEO A DALY's design encompasses a new residence building nestled into the iconic resort’s final parcel of developable land that harmonizes perfectly with its historic seaside setting.
Shore House at The Del™, a three-story building overlooking a golden stretch of Coronado beachfront, offers seventy-five 1-, 2- and 3-bedroom fully furnished private residences, an ocean-view pool with cabanas, poolside bar, casual indoor-outdoor lounge, a 17,000-SF ballroom and event lawn and other amenities. LEO A DALY’s design for Shore House pays homage to the Queen Anne Revival design of the iconic Victorian Building, an architectural masterpiece that has captivated the American imagination since it opened in 1888. Shore House borrows period vernacular elements from the Victorian building: Prominent gables, red shingle roofs, white ship-lap siding and crimson window sashes blend Shore House seamlessly into the historic fabric while adding a distinctive, new presence. The front façade is inspired by the Victorian’s heyday, offering a wide veranda with two sets of entry stairs.
The new residences are designed with families and groups in mind, offering fully equipped kitchens, adjoining suite options and indoor-outdoor gathering spaces with fire elements. The interiors take cues from The Del’s seaside setting, incorporating a modern, California coastal aesthetic with curated furniture and artwork collections that elevate the spaces and create a residential feel. Additionally, the residences are part of the hotel’s guestroom offerings for the guests seeking a more residential experience. To accommodate the many conferences and group events held at the property, LEO A DALY also designed a new state-of-the-art conference center, which includes a 15,000-SF ballroom with pre-function and break out meeting space opening onto a 14,000-SF great lawn with views to the historic hotel. Back-of-house spaces include a loading dock and kitchen.
Shore House replaces a surface parking lot on the southernmost point of The Del property – a fact which gave the design team freedom to rethink the guest’s arrival experience. A new, brick-paved entry road greets guests, bordered by lush landscaping that recall the Victorian era. The entry route is carefully choreographed to reveal the property through a series of dramatically framed views.
