Breathtaking room at L’Auberge Del Mar

While the term “hidden gem” is overused, L’Auberge Del Mar is the one location that is truly deserving of that moniker as you just might miss the entrance and once you do get there you are taken away to a location that is a bit hidden away from the rest of Del Mar. After you leave Del Mar, you probably will want to keep this vacation spot your little secret.

The history of L’Auberge Del Mar precedes their name as it is located on the historic site of what was once known as The Stratford Inn. This was built in 1910 and was the destination Hollywood celebrities for many years before finding its demise in 1969. This spot was too beautiful to sit in silence, so in 1989 L’Auberge Del Mar was born. L’Auberge kept that incredible feel that draws people to it and that hits you as you walk through the doors and you see a spectacular view of the Pacific Coast through the open air entrance in the lobby. You are greeted with a glass of champagne and flawless service and that is just the beginning.

Making Your Way to the Beach

Once you make it to your room, you just might never want to leave. Simply beautifully designed rooms that have beautiful light colors throughout to match with the beach setting. They have varying views and an assortment of room styles to appease anyone and you can even get a room with a fireplace. The entire setting of L’Auberge has more of a relaxing and anything but a stuffy resort feel to it.

Your first real dilemma is deciding beach or pool. Your best bet is to spend one day at each, preferably more, as they are both incredible options. The beach is a short walk from L’Auberge, but an even better choice is let L’Auberge pamper you in style. Guests are offered complimentary beach chairs, umbrellas and towels and you can make your way down to the beach compliments of the beach valet. The beautiful pool is right in the middle of the U-shaped L’Auberge, giving you a magnificent view leading down to the beach. Lunch, cocktails and a cabana are the perfect way to spend any day at L’Auberge. If you are looking for a little bit more, you can also enjoy Del Mar on one of the complimentary beach cruisers.

Even with COVID-19, weddings must go on and you certainly can have that dream wedding come together at L’Auberge Del Mar. You would be hard pressed to find a more scenic setting that allows you to overlook L’Auberge and down to the Pacific Coast. Allowing the wedding team at L’Auberge to help put your wedding together at this iconic location will leave any wedding couple with memories and divine pictures that they can cherish forever.

Whether you are looking for your wedding to be catered or a meal that is just as glorious as the view it comes with, Coastline has a stellar menu throughout the day. Coastline takes advantage of the local fish with some wonderful seafood dishes beginning with appetizers that include: Sea Bass Sashimi, Local Bluefin Poke, Fresh Oregon Bay Shrimp Tostadas and Steamed Local Mussels. The incredible seafood continues into the main courses with dishes such as: Red Miso Glazed Salmon and Roasted Weathervane Scallops, but don’t pass by the Cedar Ranch Dry-Aged Ribeye, which is done simply as well as any ribeye you will find on the West Coast. If somehow you have room for dessert, the Chocolate-Miso Bodino brings you a plethora of flavors that is highlighted by the rich Bordeaux cherries. After dinner head over to the stunning lobby bar, which is not your typical lobby bar. They have local beer on tap and plenty of unique cocktails and nothing is quite as flavorful and refreshing as the Summer Love. Fruity but light, it really is a cocktail that was made for the beach, bringing together peach notes, lychee and the homemade honey lavender syrup.

You can’t talk about L’Auberge Del Mar without mentioning the service. At the end of the day any vacation experience is going to be elevated and made memorable by the service. From the moment you check in, to anyone you meet at the pool and the restaurant staff, the treatment that you will receive from everyone is simply flawless.
