The area
Coronado has a village-like, resort feel quite separate from downtown, with the beach and the bay on either side of its main street, Orange Avenue. The pace is slower and more residential than the city centre, and most of what a visitor needs sits within a small, flat area. It reads as a place to settle in rather than a base for rushing around.
Getting around
Coronado lies across San Diego Bay from downtown, so a downtown day is a trip across the bay rather than a walk. Once there, Glorietta Bay Inn's own site puts Coronado Beach, the bay and the shops and restaurants of downtown Coronado within a short walk of each other. The area is self-contained enough to spend a whole day without leaving it.
