Why You'll Love This Place

A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
  • Location, location, location: this fabulous full-service resort and spa sits right at the edge of Coronado Bay, just across the bridge from downtown San Diego and minutes from the airport. The 16-acre property invites you to stay a while, with elevated lodging your out-of-town guests will love, three sparkling pools, bike and jet ski rentals for exploring the island, and an impressive spa that feels custom-built for pre-wedding relaxation.
  • Spectacular panoramas of the Bay and city skyline create a stunning backdrop for ceremonies at all three of the outdoor venues: the expansive Bayside Lawn, the intimate Pier, and the Poolside Lawn with its iconic Coronado Bridge vista. Continue the celebration al fresco with a tented reception by the water, or opt to dine and dance in one of the elegant, versatile ballrooms.
  • The Marriott planning team prides themselves on exceeding your expectations, with bespoke curation that beautifully augments the generous all-inclusive packages. Every menu is personally designed by the executive chef and culinary team, with every effort made to reflect your relationship, heritage, and favorite foods through a dedicated planning process that takes you from inspiration to tasting.
