Sherman's Expert Review

In October 2007, the lush coastal canyon preserve near Del Mar became home to the new Grand Del Mar hotel. Architect Addison Mizner (well-known for his work in Palm Beach) infused this 249-room property with Mediterranean elements like arched doorways, woodbeamed ceilings, and wrought-iron accents. Hemore also lent his name to the resort’s gourmet restaurant. Guests will find amenities like a spa, swimming pools, tennis courts, and an 18-hole, Tom Fazio–designed golf course.

Nestled in the foothills of Del Mar is North County's newest luxury resort, a hotel that pays homage to the Spanish Revival creations of architect Addison Mizner. Those fanciful Mediterranean designs are a perfect fit in upscale Del Mar. The hotel... more
