About this property

12th FL OCEAN VIEW! LARGEST 1BR1BA & LARGEST BALCONY AT SHORES! UPSCALE, LUXURY!

Please note that the owner has priced the condo through December 31, 2026. Prices after that date are not the owner's but VRBOs generated by some formula. Please email the owner for availability and prices for January 1, 2027, and thereafter.

You will be a guest of our family. We work hard to ensure that you enjoy your stay. You can anticipate fresh flowers in the living room; a welcome basket of wine, cheeses, and fruit in the refrigerator; and everything you need to prepare coffee or tea on the kitchen counter. Read our reviews to know why our service and this condo are superb. Our family has owned condos at The Shores since 1976.

Please know that a family member of the owner will thoroughly inspect your condo the day before you arrive. A family member is available to greet you and take you through our unit, La Princesa, and The Shores, showing you everything you will enjoy during your stay. You will be asked, "Is everything just right?"

Our unit is the largest one-bedroom floorplan at Coronado Shores, with 1,200 square feet of combined interior and balcony space. There is a super-abundance of storage and closets, including a walk-in closet in the bedroom. Your balcony is 26 feet long and has a head-on ocean and Point Loma view from the 12th floor. The photos you see on VRBO are exactly what you see standing on the balcony or in the living room or bedroom, looking directly toward the ocean, the sunsets, and Point Loma.

THIS CONDO IS NEWLY UPGRADED, WITH STAINLESS STEEL KITCHEN APPLIANCES, INCLUDING A BUILT-IN SUBZERO; GE PROFESSIONAL PROFILE MICROWAVE, DOUBLE-DOOR OVEN, AND GLASS COOKTOP; AND A SILENT BOSCH DISHWASHER. THE FULL-SIZED STACKED CLOTHES WASHER AND DRYER IS BEHIND A SOUND-PROOF DOOR IN THE HALLWAY. THE FURNISHINGS ARE OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY AND DESIGNER BRAND, AND ONLY HIGH-END ACCESSORIES WERE SELECTED THROUGHOUT THE UNIT. THERE IS A KING-SIZED BED IN THE BEDROOM AND A QUEEN SOFA SLEEPER IN THE LIVING ROOM. THIS CONDO HAS CENTRAL HEAT/AIR AND INCLUDES ONE UNDERGROUND PARKING SPACE.

Your condo in La Princesa Tower is centrally located within The Shores, just minutes to the world's most beautiful beaches and a six-minute walk to Coronado's shops, dining, and entertainment on Orange Avenue, including the world-famous Hotel Del Coronado. Orange Avenue in Coronado has delicious, reasonably priced cafes, delis, and exotic restaurants. You'll also find grocery stores, museums, and specialty shops. You can drive across the Coronado Bridge to enjoy La Jolla, Sea World, the San Diego Zoo, the San Diego Wild Animal Park, Balboa Park, the Gas Light District, Bario Logan, Little Italia, and Greece, China and JapanTowns, and a hundred other attractions.

Coronado Shores amenities include 24/7 doorpersons in each Tower, roving security guards, and staffed entrance gates. You will have absolute security and privacy. The four huge separate pool and Jacuzzi complexes are located next to the beach, overlooking the ocean, Point Loma, and the Coronado Islands. The Main Beach Club includes a bar and scheduled activities. A fully equipped gym has dry saunas and indoor whirlpools. There are tennis and pickleball courts and miles of walks. The 38 acres of landscaping is lush and meticulously cared for and has flower gardens, water features, lagoons, and observation decks.

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN BOOKING OUR UNIT, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING FOUR SHORT PARAGRAPHS:

1. THE SHOREST STAY IS APPROXIMATELY ONE MONTH. PLEASE MAKE YOUR RESERVATION FROM THE 1st DAY OF THE MONTH TO THE NEXT TO THE LAST DAY OF THE MONTH. PLEASE NOTE THAT YOUR LEASE WILL BEGIN AT 2:00 P.M. ON THE 1st OF THE MONTH AND WILL END AT 12:00 P.M. NOON ON THE NEXT TO THE LAST DAY OF THE MONTH.

2. YOU PAY FOR YOUR CORONADO SHORES PHOTO IDS, ELECTRICITY, AND THE NON-REFUNDABLE $175 CLEANING FEE. YOU CAN ASK US APPROXIMATELY HOW MUCH THE ELECTRICITY COST WILL BE DURING YOUR MONTH OR TERM.

3. WE REQUIRE A $1,000 SECURITY DEPOSIT. VRBO HOLDS YOUR SECURITY DEPOSIT AS A RESERVE ON YOUR CREDIT CARD. YOU WILL NOT HAVE A CHARGE ON YOUR CREDIT CARD FOR THE $1,000 SECURITY DEPOSIT WHEN YOU BOOK. WE DO NOT HOLD YOUR SECURITY DEPOSIT.

4. IF YOU THINK YOU MIGHT HAVE TO CANCEL FOR ANY REASON OR DEPART EARLY, YOUR BEST BET IS TO PURCHASE A SUPER LOW-COST AND FAST AND EASY-TO-SETTLE TRIP INSURANCE POLICY WITH VRBO'S TRIP INSURANCE COMPANY CALLED GENERALI CSA (800-349-8218). WE ARE REPEATEDLY TOLD THAT VRBO'S RECOMMENDED INSURER IS THE LOWEST COST, EASIEST, AND FASTEST TO SETTLE. ALLIANZ IS ALSO GOOD. HOWEVER, YOU'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR SELECTING THE BEST INSURER.

AWESOME VIEWS!!
What a lovely place with a magnificent view and roomy balcony!! I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The owner and his team are excellent and responsive, and the building personnel are friendly and helpful. The unit has everything you need to relax and explore all Coronado and San Diego have to offer. This dog-friendly condo is well located near the Del side of the boardwalk, making a trip to town a breeze. The parking space is right by the door for easy unloading of bags and groceries. I have stayed at the Shores off and on for 30+ years and this location was easily one of the best!! Thank you. I look forward to doing it again.

Lovely condo! The owner is very friendly. The extras that they provided (flowers, wine, cheese & crackers) were wonderful. Condo was perfectly furnished with pretty much everything that you could think of. I have stayed in several condo's at The Shores but this one was definitely one of the best. The owners go above and beyond to accommodate you!

Simply Amazing
I typically keep a healthy skepticism when I read reviews, but I will admit the reviews you read here are spot on. The condo, the views, the location are simply amazing. Bill, the owner meet us in the lobby and was very gracious and kind. He took an hour of his time to show us his property and how everything worked. The condo was exceptionally clean, organized and streamlined. No clutter or unneeded knickknacks which made us feel like the condo was ours, allowing us to feel more at home. We truly appreciated the gift basket of goodies his granddaughters set out for us. Robert the doorman was professional and easy to communicate with. The beach, the neighboring restaurants were all great and easy to walk to. If you bike I would recommend bringing them. My wife and I biked all over the island and even took them on the ferry to downtown San Diego and Seaport Village. The Coronado Shores hosts several social events throughout the week at the clubhouse. Bingo, line dancing etc. We took advantage of their Friday night dance which has a live band. A few of the owners who lived there were very kind and invited us to share their table. We had a great time and already booked our return trip.

Magnificent View
The owner Bill Swegles was easy to communicate with and answered any question we had prior and during our stay . His 12th floor condo at the Shores had the most magnificent view of the ocean and the balcony ran the entire span of the unit. The condo was stocked with everything imaginable and the building amenities were superlative. The furniture in the unit is first class and we would love these furnishings in our own home. The staff at the building get a 6 star rating. We have next year booked already and have asked for 2021.

WORLD CLASS ACCOMMODATIONS WITH OUTSTANDING VIEWS!
We stayed at this lovely condo last September and immediately rebooked for this September. The pictures and descriptions are spot on however the true appreciation for this location isn’t realized until you’re there, with a view guaranteed to impress! The expansive Coronado shoreline is steps away for either a leisurely walk or your morning jog. Sunsets melt in the distance as you relax on the large balcony overlooking the ocean or poolside grilling your favorites on yes, clean, gas bbq grills. Amenities also include sparkling swimming pools and a complete fitness facility. When we arrived, we were greeted by the waiting owner and he courteously escorted us through the building, showing us the convenient garaged parking space. He introduced us by name to the lobby staff and then brought us up to the 12th floor. As soon as you walk through the door of the condo, you’re completely amazed by the spectacular ocean view. We were then surprised to find a welcoming gift basket with a nice variety of goodies to hold us over until we stocked the kitchen later that day. The folding grocery handcart proved super handy. The owner proceeded to show us operational features such as wifi, thermostat, tv, appliances, etc. We must make special mention of the meticulously clean condo; everything was also neatly folded and stowed away, yet easy to find when needed. Honestly, the owners were the best part of our stay. We’ve traveled around the globe but let’s face it, if your hosts aren’t accommodating, the most wondrous vacation can turn disastrous, especially when the unexpected happens and you have limited to no resources. How nice to know you can call the owner and reliably he will do his very best to help you. We have experienced this first-hand and we still marvel at the owner’s expeditious response with genuine concern for our well-being and kindness rarely found among strangers. We’re excited about our return vacation at Coronado and at the same time, we feel so at ease for what has now become our “home away from home” and owners who we consider friends. Thank you so much Mr. & Mrs. Swegles and family!

A Gem Of a Property On a Gem Of an Island
Everything about this marvelous property was as advertised and then some. A personal tour by the owner himself on New Year's Day started it out perfectly and it only got better from there. The unit was very clean and well maintained and everything we needed was in place. The view of the Pacific from the over sized balcony was the icing on the cake. And the ocean side multiple pool and whirlpool complexes were exceptional. And the town of Coronado is very welcoming. We felt like we lived there after a week or so. Wonderful restaurants and one of the cutest, quaint downtown areas anyone could ask for. Quite frankly, we never left the island as we have seen all of the sites off island on previous trips. We can't wait to come back. My wife and I highly recommend this property. You will not be disappointed.
