LoewsSecluded marina resort
A private peninsula on the Silver Strand keeps the resort quiet and self-contained, surrounded by bay waters and docked boats.
What it’s good at
Remarkable
An eighty-slip private marina with sailboat rentals sits beside three heated swimming pools.
Listed
The spa houses eucalyptus steam rooms, Vichy rain showers, and an outdoor whirlpool.
Listed
The property arranges private gondola cruises through the nearby canals of Coronado Cays.
What they say
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
The design screams ‘vacation!’—think bright, white, and airy. It's polished without forgetting its chill SoCal surroundings.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Silver Strand State Beach is a five-minute stroll away, and Coronado Village sits five miles to the north.
The rooms
Rooms are finished in soft sand and blue tones, and each opens onto a balcony facing the bay or marina.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
Private cabanas and tall palms line the deck, where a dedicated adults pool sits beside family swimming areas.
The spa
Tropical sea stone massages draw on island traditions, and loungers surround a private Jacuzzi in the outdoor courtyard.
The gym
Peloton and Technogym machines fill the gym, and spin classes head out to a terrace overlooking the marina.
Restaurant
Crown Landing
Arched windows overlook the marina slips, where the dining room serves coastal dishes from breakfast through dinner.
At the table
Cays Lounge pours craft cocktails around patio fire pits facing the bay, and Silver Strand Exchange scoops local gelato.
How it began
Coronado residents Josef and Lenore Citron secured the Crown Isle leasehold, developing the waterfront property with Loews in 1991.

The eight vibes

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.

A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
