Top Dana Point Harbor Hotel Reviews

Waldorf Astoria Monarch Beach

8/10 Good

"Great hotel. Second time there. There were several flaws. Check-in was delayed until 5:30 pm. Luggage took almost 45 mins to be sent. Breakfast took an hour to be served... sounds like short-staffing to me... Other than that, great place. They did provide a little credit, which showed they cared. Service was very good overall. "

Blue Lantern Inn, A Four Sisters Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The view from our tower king room was amazing! The staff was especially kind and helpful. The breakfast was excellent and the afternoon wine/cheese/snacks bar was a highlight along with the unending supply of passion tea. We would definitely return. Our only slight critique is about the slow and sketchy WiFi."

Casa de la Ballena, back available on VRBO. Permit STR15-0329, walk to the beach

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed a wonderful stay at the property over the July 4th long weekend. It was cozy and comfortable and well stocked! Bob was very friendly and helpful and we definitely hope to be back- great experience!!"

Dana Dream Coastal Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"We were in town for a wedding and we brought our 11 month old baby. Everything was very clean, easy to use & the backyard is also very clean along with the Hot tub. They had a pack and play so we did not need to bring ours for the baby to sleep in. They had a couple beach chairs, little beach umbrella for our visit to baby beach. It was great! we were able to put our little guy down in the evenings in time to enjoy a little relaxation in the Hot tub at the end of each night. Farmers market on Saturday was perfect and able to walk to no problem for a cup of coffee, light breakfast and some shopping with some local vendors. Thank you,Bo"
