Beachfront Inn and Suites at Dana Point

Beachfront Inn and Suites at Dana Point

10/10 Excellent
"We had a top floor ocean view room at the front corner, the view was amazing. The rooms are clean, bedding could have been updated, there is no extras in the kitchen as in dish soap, paper towels, silverware, etc. but otherwise was fine. Overall a great stay with a good location. The train and traffic was mentioned in other reviews, there are trains and traffic but didn't seem to bother us, heard once in the night the train and also got used to them, you are on a highway but the beach and listening to the waves made up for any other noise."

"We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is FANTASTIC! Right across from Strand beach which connects with Salt Creek Beach which were fun to walk. Dana Headlands nature area with ocean cliff walk is at the end of the street. Walk to town easily with a mile depending on where you want to go. Other city parks and trails close by. Costco and grocery stores with 10 minutes.The owners were friendly, responsive, and helpful. The unit was clean. It had a newer refrigerator and dishwasher as well as newer washer and dryer. There is no A/C but ocean breezes kept it cool. Space heaters in different rooms.Furnishings and the condo is worn, but functional. Master bed was comfortable. Kitchen is tight for 2 people but we made out OK.All in all- we were happy to have this unit in an amazing location."
