Celebrate this holiday season at the legendary Hotel del Coronado. From Thanksgiving Dinner to Christmas Day, our award-winning culinary team will craft an epicurean adventure for your family and friends.
This year's holiday season will be A Twenties Holiday Affair as we take a look back 100 years to the glittering art-deco extravagance of the 1920s. The Del will razzle-dazzle with breathtaking lights and festive décor in emerald green, shimmering silver and gold, delicate pearls, and velvet. We'll also herald the return of holiday favorites including Skating by the Sea® and Frostbite Lounge, "All That Jazz" Dynamic Light Show with a new lounge, Beachside Igloos, and more.
