Chula Vista,
Spanish for "beautiful vista", is located
south of San Diego, facing Coronado and
Imperial Beach across the bay to the west.
Attracting a tourist audience that finds its
close location to Tijuana, Mexico (7 miles)
advantageous, meeting and event planners
recently have taken interest in its
facilities such as the Chula Vista Yacht
Club pictured above.
With tourism
at a peak, especially during summer months,
the event facilities throughout the City of
San Diego and on Coronado are in great
demand and leave the event planner searching
for alternate locations for elegant or fun
functions. Chula Vista offers an ideal
location. Its hotels typically offer
reasonable prices, compared to downtown San
Diego hotels nearby And during special
events such as Imperial Beach Sand Castle
Festival, Chula Vista offers the close-by
accommodations not found elsewhere.
With several good reasons to
check Chula Vista out, there are activities,
restaurants and shopping in the city to keep
you busy during your stay. A weekly Farmer's
Market occurs on Thursday afternoon and
includes farm fresh produce and flowers plus
hand made crafts. There's a local playhouse,
summer concerts, annual events such as a
parade and thousands of events and
attraction in San Diego 15 miles away.
The City of
Chula Vista has a great public
transportation system connected to the San
Diego network of buses and rail service so
tourists can get around without having to
drive. Check out the prices on hotel rooms
and compare. You may find Chula Vista tries
hard to please its guests and that alone is
worth the trip.
