i called the hotel the nite before arrival and i spoke to Shannon.she took care and interest in our personal needs.when we arrived Shannon greeted me at the front desk and she remembered me from the call the nite before.she was concered that the other person with me would be in a room near the elevator since he had issues with walking a long distance...Shannon made our stay much better..i wish more front desk personnel were like her! i will stay here again because of her.the location was ideal.we were going to catalina the next day so it was conveniently located near the dana point harbor.

The room was very comfortable. The cafe and restaurant were both great. I needed to exchange my meal and had great service from the restaurant and room service. The walking trail was beautiful for an evening stroll and the view was greating having lunch either indoors or out. Wish I had more time to try the yoga, wine tasting, and bikes!

    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!

    The hotel is in a good location. It is close to Dana Point and San Clemente. The hotel is an older hotel and was right on Hwy 1 directly across from the beach. It had a good view. However, you had to walk about 5 minutes along Hwy 1 to cross the road. Then walk up 52 steps, across the bridge, and then down 54 steps to get to the beach. The beds were comfortable. It was nice to have a little breakfast in the morning and the Staff was friendly. The hotel is more like a motel and it had free garage parking.

    First of all, the staff was very nice and apologized for the major renovations going on in the hotel. We arrived and there was lots of jack hammering going on, the lobby was all tarped off, so no pool, no food off of the menu was available at the rooftop lounge. The only food available was frozen pizza from the grocery store and frozen egg rolls. It would have been nice for booking .com to alert consumers that this hotel is under major renovations and no food service nor pool is available.

    This is a great location with good walks around quayside and up hill into the shopping/gallery Del Prado Avenue area. A small beach is nearby, and whale watching trips leave from near the hotel. Restaurants nearby are to suit all pockets, but a couple are very expensive. Good value for money, but parking is $15/day for the week I stayed. Helpful, very friendly staff.

    Beautiful location and a quaint boutique hotel. The only con was the TV wasn’t working even after resetting and had very few channels and there is no internal kiosk for emergency needs such as pain medication. Otherwise, a beautiful and peaceful place with nice staff.

    Very nice hotel. Very clean and comfortable. We had a room with a kingsize bed which was also very comfortable and a jacuzzi in the bathroom. The breakfast was great, especially the pancake machine. The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. We would come back!

    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.

    The location is perfect. The hotel is older, but very decent. Looks like they have a frequent visitor program and offer discounts for direct purchase.
