Top South Day Use Beach Hotel Reviews

Best Western Plus Dana Point Inn-by-the-sea

10/10 Excellent

"They were very kind and helpful. The breakfast was very good, nice variety we would gladly stay there again"

Capistrano Coast House

10/10 Excellent

"Easy, friendly check-in. Beautiful Spanish Hacienda styled property with uniquely appointed rooms. Room was clean and included complimentary water and snacks, and had a kettle and mini fridge. There were even comfy robes and beach towels. The ocean views from the second floor balcony room were lovely, a perfect place for morning coffee. Staff were friendly and accessible. And the record player and assorted albums in the room was a fantastic surprise! The property is right next to the busy Pacific Coast Highway, and has trains passing fairly frequently, but was very quiet after dark. There were complimentary earplugs in the room for those sensitive to noise (which is an amazing touch), however we weren't bothered at all, and the trains and traffic seemed to disappear after around 11pm. We chose this as an overnight stop on the way to San Diego from LA, and so glad we did. This is a fantastic gem of a property in a great location right near the ocean and near the lovely town of Dana Point. Would absolutely stay here again the next time we find ourselves in Southern California!"

Dana Point Marina Inn

8/10 Good

"Great location and clean rooms. The price was reasonable. The front desk will make you aware that they will be tearing down the building to rebuild, so it's understandable that rooms are not renovated. The location was ideal. Laguna Beach was about 15 minutes away. Walkable to trails and places to eat on the harbor. My front desk also is a ware that housekeeping would not come. We stayed four nights and was disappointing that after four nights we wouldn't need some type of clean towels. I did however find the laundry room and gave them my wet towels after the third day to receive clean ones at the front desk. Overall a peaceful and quiet stay."

Capistrano Surfside Inn

8/10 Good

"This hotel is located right across from the beach. My room was spacious and had a full kitchen. I had some issues with my cable box, but the staff was able to resolve them. My room was on the backside of hotel and I was above the laundry room which wasn't the best, but other than that the room was great!"

Ocean Front - Stunning Views! Central AC and HEAT! STR16-0534

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful property. Well stocked kitchen and fun stuff for kids like boogie boards. Only complaints would be grill only heated to 225 degrees and due to tides beach access on backside of property was unavailable. Even if tides were lower there appears to be way more giant rocks there compared to the photo you see looking at the beach side of property. Its gated, felt safe and secluded. Unbeatable views, lounge chairs for suntanning and close to everything. I give it a 9.5 out of 10. Also the host Mike is a great person was responsive and helpful the entire way before and during and after stay."

Deluxe Oceanfront Beach House I Luxury Hot Tub I Family Game Room I On the Beach

10/10 Excellent

"The house was beautiful and had a pathway right down to the beach. The only thing I would mention is is actually more of a duplex because there are two bedrooms upstairs that you have to access from going outside of the main downstairs."
