Description
Outdoor pool area at the Hotel Del Coronado near San Diego, California, in 2008. View features a California palm tree, the vintage red-roof cabana, and Point Loma.
One can see unidentifiable people on the beach beyond the pool-house, but none around the pool itself, for they've all gone to the shore to watch an inbound cruise ship. Many famous guests, from movie stars such as Marilyn Monroe to presidents (even Abraham Lincoln's son), have stayed at this famous vintage hotel, often referred to as "The Del."

I am equally enthusiastic about this feature, Holly. Thank you! So pleased that you mentioned the colors. I updated this image yesterday to show the bright clean details and ambience I have long associated with the Del and this part of California. To hear that you noticed this aspect means a lot.

Robert Harmon, thank you for featuring "Vintage Cabana at The Del" in FAA Featured Images. It was so fortunate that guests all left the pool area to await the arrival of a cruise ship (also shown), and cleared the decks for a nice shot.
