We’ve heard of room valets and private butler service at fancy resorts, but this is the first time we’ve heard of a Berry Butler. That is just the position that was created to celebrate “National Berry Month” in July, however, when the Loews Coronado teamed up with Driscoll’s Berries.

Every Friday and Saturday until August 1, the Berry Butler will be at the hotel greeting guests with fresh berries, teaching kids to make fresh smoothies, hosting berry tastings with Loews’ executive chef, Marc Ehrler, and conducting adult cocktail (and kids’ mocktail) classes with the hotel’s mixology team.

The hotel believes that consumers, and especially travelers, are becoming more and more health-conscious about the way they eat, so Loews hopes to provide them with some antioxidant berry boosts to help them stay healthy while enjoying a San Diego bayside getaway.

Driscoll’s has been growing berries for over 100 years, and its partnership with the hotel is part of the Loews Coronado’s larger program of working with area farmers, fisherman and independent produce purveyors, as well as using herbs and veggies from its onsite organic garden.

Room rates for a Superior King Room at the resort, which sits on a private 15-acre peninsula, start at $319 per night.
