When Cabrillo Tower opened in 1970, it set the standard for what Coronado Shores could become. The first building completed in the community, this 15-story landmark was positioned diagonal to the shoreline, a design choice that pays off in every direction. West-facing homes look straight out to the Pacific, with Point Loma on the horizon. East-facing residences open up to San Diego Bay, Glorietta Bay, the Coronado Bridge, and the glittering city skyline.
Tucked at the northern end of Coronado Shores, Cabrillo strikes a rare balance: close enough to everything, yet quietly removed from it. Step outside and you're moments from two oceanfront pools, eight tennis courts, direct beach access, and the private Coronado Shores clubhouse, a social hub for gatherings big and small. The landscaped grounds tie it all together with the kind of effortless coastal atmosphere that's hard to manufacture and even harder to leave.
Inside, each of the 15 floors holds 10 residences across one-, two-, and three-bedroom layouts. Floor-to-ceiling glass, open living areas, and private balconies make the most of what's outside the window — whether that's breaking waves or the Downtown skyline. Cabrillo works equally well as a full-time home or a lock-and-leave escape, delivering a true Coronado Shores experience in one of California's most sought-after seaside addresses.
No address in Coronado Shores sits closer to the Hotel del Coronado than La Sierra Tower and that proximity defines everything about living here. Completed in 1972, this 15-story tower places residents just steps from one of California's most iconic landmarks, with the beach, oceanfront dining, and Coronado's celebrated stretch of white sand all within easy reach. Views sweep across the Pacific Ocean, San Diego Bay, and the Coronado Bridge, framing one of Southern California's most impressive waterfront settings from nearly every unit.
La Sierra was designed to make the most of its exceptional placement. Floor-to-ceiling windows and private balconies bring the surrounding water, city lights, and coastal landscape directly into the living space, while the building's orientation captures both sunrise and sunset in full color. In 2007, a comprehensive renovation elevated the tower's appearance and function with new elevators, a redesigned entrance, refreshed corridors, and replaced balcony railings gave La Sierra a crisp, contemporary profile that complements its timeless setting.
The third high-rise completed at Coronado Shores, Las Palmas Tower has earned its place as one of the community's most enduring addresses since 1973. With 15 stories above the shoreline, it offers immediate access to the beach, the oceanfront pools, and the landscaped grounds that give Coronado Shores its distinctive character.
The views here pull in two entirely different worlds. On the western side, the Pacific stretches to the horizon with surfers, sailboats, and sunsets creating a scene that changes by the hour. Turn east, and the perspective changes: San Diego Bay, the Coronado Bridge, the downtown skyline, the Coronado Cays, and on clear days, the hills of Mexico. This rare combination of ocean, bay, city, and mountain scenery sets Las Palmas apart from the other buildings.
Whether chosen as a year-round home or a sophisticated beach retreat, Las Palmas delivers a level of coastal luxury that has kept it at the top of Southern California's most desirable oceanfront options. Steps from the sand, minutes from Coronado's dining and recreation, it remains one of the Shores' most compelling offerings.
Las Flores Tower was built in 1973 as the fourth high-rise in the Coronado Shores development. At 15 stories, its position directly along the shoreline puts residents moments from the Pacific, with the community's pools, clubhouse, and recreational amenities all just as close.
The building has views from every corner. West-facing homes are treated to wide ocean panoramas where waves, sunsets, and the horizon fill the frame all day long. East-facing residences face an entirely different picture: views of the San Diego Bay, the Coronado Bridge, and the sparkling lights of downtown San Diego.
Spacious floor plans, direct beach access, and the full suite of resort-style amenities make Las Flores a natural fit for full-time residents and seasonal visitors alike. Whether it serves as a primary home or a refined escape from the everyday, Las Flores offers a lifestyle defined by beauty, comfort, and some of Southern California's most impressive waterfront scenery.
Completed in 1974 as the fifth high-rise at Coronado Shores, El Camino Tower is among the community's largest buildings, with 13 residences per floor spread across 15 stories. It's position along the southern end of the Shores places residents steps from the sand and within easy reach of the pools, clubhouse, and beautifully maintained walkways that run the length of the community.
The views at El Camino make a strong case in every direction. West facing homes face open ocean with rolling waves, expansive horizon lines, and sunsets that color the sky well after the sun goes down. Eastern residences open to a completely different panorama: San Diego Bay, Glorietta Bay, the Coronado Bridge, and the shimmering lights of downtown. Floor-to-ceiling windows and private balconies are built to highlight these scenes, drawing natural light deep into each home.
With direct beach access, an oceanfront setting, and the full range of Coronado Shores amenities at its doorstep, El Camino blends luxury and laid-back coastal sophistication in equal measure.
La Playa Tower, completed in 1975, is the sixth tower built at The Shores. Positioned directly along the shoreline, this 15-story building puts residents a short walk from the sand and within easy reach of the pools, clubhouse, and scenic beachfront walkways that define life along the Shores.
West-facing units take in the Pacific in full with waves, sunsets, and horizon lines that shift with the time of day and the season. Units facing east offer an equally impressive picture: San Diego Bay, Glorietta Bay, the Coronado Bridge, and the downtown San Diego skyline. Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows and private balconies make the most of these perspectives, filling each residence with natural light and the calm of the surrounding coastline.
La Playa blends easy access to the beach with the relaxed sophistication that Coronado Shores is known for. Whether chosen as a year-round home or a refined vacation retreat, it delivers an exceptional waterfront lifestyle where beauty, convenience, and panoramic scenery come together without compromise.
