As summer breezes blow in and the sun's golden rays stretch wide over the Pacific, San Diego's coastal beauty comes alive in dazzling fashion. Three legendary resorts Bahia Resort Hotel, Catamaran Resort Hotel and Spa, and The Lodge at Torrey Pines are firing things up with a schedule of can't-miss events. From scorching Polynesian performances and sizzling hot chef cookouts to upscale cruises under fireworks, these resorts are putting everybody in the front row for the magic of summer.
The Sunset Luau Reopens with Island Magic and Flavor
Few summer pursuits express the spirit of summer as a luau on the bay. The Sunset Luaus, a favorite, are coming back to the Catamaran Resort, injecting Polynesian charm into Mission Bay beaches. As the sun sets over the bay, guests dine on a traditional Hawaiian-style feast served family-style with all the trimmings. The highlight of the evening is the interactive Polynesian show featuring dancers, drummers and a dazzling fire knife performance.
For couples and travelers who want culture and ocean views, the Sunset Luau is one experience that should not be missed. There is just a little bit of magic in watching torches sway to the rhythm of drums as one enjoys kalua pork and sweet pineapple beneath the starlit sky.
Launching the Summer Chef Cookouts at the Bahia
Brand new this year and guaranteed to be a summer favorite, the Summer Chef Cookouts at the Bahia Resort Hotel are all about enjoying beach living. Held at the newly opened Bahia Beach Club, the meticulously planned dinners include gourmet cuisine, al fresco BBQ and bay views straight from a film.
The first cookout is on July 8 and promises to be a night of carefree elegance. There will be a show of gastronomic finesse by Bahia's talented chefs as they cook up fresh local dishes right on the beach. Picture grilled fish, hickory-smoked meats, garden-fresh vegetables and homemade desserts with breezy beach attitude and sunset cocktails.
This is more than a dinner. This is a summer feast at its best.
The Ultimate Independence Day Experience by Sea and Land
San Diego's Fourth of July celebration is a tradition and Bahia and Catamaran are announcing they're going bigger and better than ever this year. Two great ways to celebrate are a patriotic beach barbecue or a dazzling fireworks cruise.
On the Fourth of July Beach BBQ at the Bahia Resort, a day of family enjoyment is in full swing. Grilled delights, lawn games and live music reign in a carefree beachfront atmosphere, and this is the quintessential American holiday brought to life amidst the loveliest of beaches. For something a bit more elegant, the 4th of July Fireworks Cruise won't disappoint. On one of Bahia's charming vintage-style sternwheeler boats, the cruise offers bay-wide visibility and optimal viewing spots for San Diego's amazing fireworks display. Add in live music and on-board drinks and you've got a star-spangled party that sparkles from start to finish.
Luxury Meets Recreation at The Lodge at Torrey Pines
While Bahia and Catamaran glimmer with summer festival hues, The Lodge at Torrey Pines provides a tranquil but no less inviting getaway. Situated on the Pacific and adjacent to the legendary Torrey Pines Golf Course, The Lodge encourages relaxation and the indulgence of the season in its finest form.
In the summer, The Lodge offers a thoughtfully designed blend of dining, wellness and live music evenings. From wine tastings around the stars to farm-to-table feasting at A R Valentien, each aspect is designed for guests who appreciate refined relaxation.
For golfers, playing the historic Torrey Pines course is the crowning glory of a refined beach getaway. Whether you're taking in the sunset from your own private balcony or strolling among the scented pines along the bluffs, The Lodge makes every summer experience one to cherish.
Why San Diego Beach Resorts are the Pulse of Summer
What distinguishes these three resorts is not only their world-class amenities or stunning vistas. It is the manner in which they bring people together in shared experiences that are both wondrous and unforgettable.
Bahia provides a relaxed ambiance that is ideal for beach enthusiasts and families. Catamaran provides tropical flair and high-energy parties that make every evening feel like a party. And The Lodge, with its classic sophistication, provides a haven for those who want to relax in luxury.
Each property is individual but united by a strong sense of place and an affection for hospitality that is personal and luxurious.
Plan Your Escape Before the Sun Sets
With space limited for certain events especially the Summer Chef Cookout on July 8 reservations are highly recommended in advance. If you're searching for a night out for just the two of you, a family getaway or an individual travel experience packed with sunshine and culture, San Diego's premier resorts have something very special in store this summer.
Visit Bahia Resort Hotel, Catamaran Resort Hotel and Spa, and The Lodge at Torrey Pines websites to view all the events and book your seat at the table, on the boat or by the bay. Summer arrives and this year is replete with memories that will linger long after dusk falls behind the coast.
