The front desk staff were terrific. The attendant in the breakfast room was friendly and helpful. I did not feel like an "anonymous guest" at all!

    Husband and I stayed one night to catch a fishing charter scheduled for the following morning. The location was perfect... Walking distance to food, shopping, marina and beaches... Rooms were clean and the staff was polite and helpful... Other than the few issues listed below, we would definitely stay here again and recommend others give it a try... * The location of our room on the second floor, left us with no privacy, Unless we kept the drapes drawn, hotel guests stepping off the elevator were able to see directly into our room... *Room key issues- Need to update system. Locked out twice... *Paying to park in hotel parking lot

    Beautiful place. Safe areas to cross traffic.

    Beautiful place. Safe areas to cross traffic. Beautiful beach within walking distance. Nice selection of restaurants within walking distance and/or short driving distance. Had to make several U-turns until I understood how the roadways were connected.

    Lovely place to stay for decent rates and nice staff and pool! Clean and quick to all sites from Newport to San Diego. Stayed 40 years ago and it's the same great place. Nice some things stay the same. Must eat at top of Dana Point at Restaurant overlooking the Bay. Forgot name but really great prices for food and the normal price of California.

    Dana Point is such a beautiful gem!

    Dana Point is such a beautiful gem! There are so many things to see and do. We had done our research and didn't check much off the list since we were so content with everything right there in the harbor. We loved Dana Point very much and will definitely be back to see more!

    Our third visit to this hotel on our travels around California from Scotland and we just love where it is situated with a fantastic view. The hotel itself is very comfortable and welcoming and rooms superb. Afternoon wine & snacks delightful and breakfast tasty. Free bike rental a bonus too.

    The room was spacious and comfortable. We enjoyed the location and view of the ocean. It was easy to access many fun activities from the hotel. Dana Harbor was close and it was easy to access the ocean over the walking bridge over the highway.
