Azul Hospitality Group opens The Bower Coronado, a distinctive 39-room luxury boutique hotel in Coronado, Calif. Developed in partnership with San Diego-based owner J Street Hospitality, the hotel is built on the site of the former Villa Capri and the historic grounds of John D. Spreckels' Japanese tea garden.
"The Bower Coronado represents a significant addition to our luxury portfolio and showcases our expertise in operating distinctive lifestyle properties," Azul Hospitality President Mark Crisci said in a statement. "From initial concept through development and now operations, our team has worked diligently to create a truly unique hospitality experience that captures the essence of Coronado while offering an unparalleled level of personalized service."
Located minutes from downtown San Diego, The Bower Coronado design narrative, created in partnership with architectural firm Delawie and SFA Design, embraces the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi through minimalism with clean lines and organic materials. A highlight of the property is Dive, Coronado's first rooftop bar and restaurant, which has panoramic views and embraces mid-century California glamour, according to Azul.
