Fodor's Expert Review Loews Coronado Bay Resort

You can park your boat at the 80-slip marina of this romantic retreat set on a secluded 15-acre peninsula on the Silver Strand. Rooms glow in sand and sea hues; most standard rooms and all suites have furnished balconies with water views. You can rent watercraft—including WaveRunners, sailboats, and motorboats—and get out on the water, or luxuriate by the tropical oasis that surrounds three pools. The 10,000-square-foot Sea Spa features a tranquil garden area with a hot tub and Watsu water massages. Exercise classes range from yoga to kickboxing, and the resort's surf instructors can teach you how to ride waves or stand-up paddle.
