Description
Overlooking an eight-and-a-half mile stretch of white sand, this Mediterranean-style resort is a knockout addition to beachfront properties. The hotel’s lobby is the epitome of casual seaside luxury: the richness of marble in floors and graceful curved staircases coexists quite comfortably with the tropical presence of cascading rock waterfalls, palm trees and lush foliage.
Exchange your vows poolside under the blue sky, in an oceanview ballroom or an intimate outdoor terrace setting. While the bridal party is posing for pictures around the hotel or on the beach, guests enjoy cocktails and hors d’oeuvres in the spacious foyer of the Waterfront Grand Ballroom. The largest event space at the resort, the Grand Ballroom’s most notable feature is a fourteen-foot ceiling trimmed with rich, golden crown molding. Suspended from on high, six glowing chandeliers provide romantic mood lighting.
Another reception option is the Pacific Ballroom and adjoining Terrace, located on the hotel’s upper level. The view from the Terrace extends beyond the resort’s pool and beautifully landscaped grounds to the vast ocean. Refreshed by sea breezes, guests enjoy pre-reception mingling and cocktails on the Terrace, accompanied by the sound of the rolling surf. Inside the ballroom floor-to-ceiling windows take in that fabulous view, and contemporary oil paintings in gilded frames depict Catalina Island. A fourteen-foot-tall alcove with arched black-rimmed windows on all three sides makes a dramatic backdrop for your wedding cake.
A more intimate ballroom, Cielo Mare—Italian for "Heavenly Sea"—treats you to an ocean vista through windows framed by cascading bougainvillea. On one wall, an abstract marble sculpture captures the image of rolling waves; and a marble credenza adds to Cielo Mare’s loveliness. At the rear of the room, a trompe l’oeil "sky" with fluffy white clouds on a baby blue background adorns the ceiling. This is the spot most hostesses prefer to set the dance floor, so guests can kick up their heels under an imaginary firmament. French doors open to a private glass-walled room with a full Pacific view—a delightful spot for the wedding cake, bar or buffet.
The Hilton Waterfront Beach Resort is a four-diamond facility with an abundance of services and amenities. Each of its 290 guestrooms comes with a private oceanview balcony; there are beach activities galore, not to mention on-site tennis and volleyball courts, a swimming pool and a fitness center. With all these inducements, it’s easy to understand why guests coming to the Hilton Waterfront for an event are enticed to stay on for a mini-vacation.
