Walk amidst a grove of eucalyptus trees and marvel over a waterfall cascading through ancient volcanic rock. At Fairmont Grand Del Mar, located on 400 acres alongside Los Peñasquitos Canyon Preserve near Carmel Valley and Torrey Pines, you will be swept away by nature’s majestic beauty. Breathe deeply, dream wildly, and discover a soulful sanctuary just five miles from the beach where finding yourself comes naturally.

Immerse Yourself in NATURE

At Fairmont Grand Del Mar, a San Diego luxury hotel and spa, magic surrounds us. And it’s in our people. It’s around every corner and every conversation. It enchants through the charm of Los Peñasquitos Canyon and the sunshine of San Diego. It’s where classic meets cool, the fine unwinds into the fun and inspiration leads to immersion.

Commune with nature on a trail ride surrounded by stunning bluffs, challenge yourself on the diverse bunkers of our 18-hole private Tom Fazio-designed golf course, and find true balance at our state-of-the-art spa.
