Kona Kai San Diego

Set on its own private peninsula at the tip of Shelter Island, Kona Kai Resort & Spa captures the easygoing coastal spirit of Southern California. Surrounded by the calm waters of San Diego Bay, the resort feels tranquil and tucked away, yet remains just minutes from the vibrant energy of San Diego.

An emphasis on indoor-outdoor living defines the experience, from a private beach and marina access to waterfront dining and golden hour views over the bay. Guest rooms and bungalows channel a relaxed, contemporary coastal aesthetic, while palm-lined pathways and open-air gathering spaces invite guests to slow down and unwind. Whether setting out on the water or simply soaking in the scenery, Kona Kai offers a quintessential San Diego escape that blends seclusion, sunshine, and effortless access to the best of the city.
