Well, there are many different definitions of 'plush'. Either velvety, cushiony, swanky, luxurious, ritzy....
I'm going this week with 'swanky'!
Near San Diego, California, on Coronado Island, there is ONE swanky(plush!) hotel. And historical too. And tho old, it's just one beautiful hotel. A lot of dignitaries, celebrities and people with money-or master card *hehehehe* have stayed here! This hotel is where hubby told me he loved me! So, it's a place of sentimental memories for me! I give you Hotel del Coronado---

Great photos Wystful, I'm still trying to decide on a photo.
This is GREAT! The first blog I visited this week had a plushy vacation photo too -- and I knew right then I SHOULD have used some of my South Padre pics! But, alas... I didn't! I was drawing a "blank" on plush! Don't know where my brain was at! And I dooooo so LOVE plush resorts and hotels! Nicely done Wys!
I just love plush hotels.. great one. :) thanks for the visit.
WOW! It's beautiful!
Wonderful! Love the sentimental meaning behing the plush hotel! It is very impressive and if we are ever in San Diego again I hope I can remember to look it up! My hubby has two brothers and their families that live in San Diego! :) Enjoy your day!

So if I understand well, you will sit in plush ! You are the 2nd Blog without plush animals, sigh, I am disappointed ! Lol
That looks like a wonderful hotel! And what lovely memories for you too :)
Swanky is good.
Love the hotel - great interpretation of Plush :) Love the sentimental feelings behind it too :D
That is very plush indeed! And with loving memories too!
Thanks for stopping by this morning. Happy Saturday!
Wow that's some swanky hotel! Very nice.
Hey Wystful1--
Blogger is acting up this morning, so I can't get mine to post just yet. I haven't spent much time on the western side of the US, but I am familiar with the Hotel Coronado. It's always been one of my most desired places to see before I die and one of these days Hubs and I are gonna get out there.
If you've ever been to Disney World notice the Grand Floridian hotel..see how much it resembles the Coronado? That's not by chance, I think.
Resort
Lovely story...I would have said YES! if my hubby took me there...haha...
As for plushness, well I went a different direction....
Have a wonderful weekend!
Hugz,
Carol
Looks REALLY plush! wow...
(I had real trouble finding the leave comment -link *blush*)
Mine's posted too.
Oh, what a great interpretation of plush! Hope you're having a wonderful weekend!
I love it! I've seen so many travel shows about this hotel on TV - it must be so beautiful in person :)
I've seen that in person when I lived in California. I loved San Diego- so beautiful.
Perfect choice for this week's theme!
Happy Saturday and thanks for stopping by mine.
Looks like a lovely place to stay, made all the better by sweet memories!
Oooo, I love this take on the theme! Thanks for visiting us as well!
Beautiful pictures! Looks very plush:)
Plush hotel.... plush new look for your blog! Sorry I wasn't up when you came by earlier... I am now!
I like your interpretation of plush. It looks like a neat place to visit.
My photo is up...
Have a great weekend!
Blessings,
Yes, plush hotel. We went to one in Athens Greece and I swear to God, if I had a lot of money and didn't ever have to worry about running out, I'd just get that suite overlooking the Parthenon and live there forever! (We were on company business at the time!)
BTW I went to the Coronado for an Army Reunion with hubby and we had a great time! ;o)
Awww....I love the pictures and the story behind it, too! How sweet is that?
I like your definition of "plush"!
Thanks for stopping by mine :)
Love this photos!
Mine's up!
Great photos. :) Very plush. :) Sounds like you have wonderful memories of the place. :)
Thanks for stopping by and have a good weekend.
What a plush looking place. Great take on the theme.
Vary cool definition of 'plush'. I looked into last year going there for our anniversary - BUT although we have an Amex card - I was not willing to pay the money they are charging for a room...I think it is a cool place to be romantic at. Cool that you hubby told you about his love for you in such a place :)...
Happy Saturday to you :)
Thanks for stopping by.
Love the plush hotels with all the "extras" they offer. A lovely and memorable place for a proposal indeed.
awww christmas comes early here and thanks for sharing the memory with us :) have a good week end!
Beautiful place and it sounds like you had a beautiful time there. Great plush photos!
Christmas is a'plush' time of year all around isnt it. All the richness of deep reds & greens..even the smells are plush. Great pick and pictures.
First off, I love your new Christmas look! Very fun!
Second, I agree with Carol, that pic really resembles the one from Disney world.
Third, oh.my.dog, how do you have time to do all this stuff and your decorating etc? ok I know I work and you don't but I feel very inept compared to what you seem to achieve. Congrats!... and I mean that sincerely :-)
Wow, very plush.
LOVELY hotel. Would love to be there now.....
I just LOVE San Diego!!
Very swanky, ritzi place you got here, very plush!!
Mine's up too
Happy Weekend!
