A new restaurant and bar, the Purple Palm, offers a private room for 15 that can be used for small meetings or private meals.As part of its $25 million expansion and enhancement project, San Diego’s Rancho Bernardo Inn has renovated its 287 guest rooms, upgraded its spa, and added the Aragon Ballroom. Spa treatments can be taken in the new 10,000-square-foot spa garden, which features a Roman shower, a hydrotherapy pool, and six private cabanas. For meetings, the 10,160-square-foot ballroom holds as many as 1,000 guests for seated events; it offers 54 permanent rigging points and 600 amps of dedicated power for large-scale events like trade shows.
