Top The Sea Caves Hotel Reviews

Hilton Vacation Club Riviera Beach & Shores

10/10 Excellent

"Great property for adults and families. Excellent staff, useful amenities. The game room made us gleeful when we saw a large Connect 4. Our average age is 58. Hahaha Great location. We did wish there were more food options in walking distance, but it did not detract from our stay. Gorgeous view of the ocean. We hope to return next year."

Dana Point Marina Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Very friendly staff and generally clean facility. Convenient."

Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort and Spa

8/10 Good

"The staff and the hotel are great - but there is a lot of construction - and the pricing was outrageous for the festival (1200 to 1500 per night) - even though much of the hotel was blocked off and construction ongoing. That said, there was still a pool open (and it was great) as well as some great restaurants - but I do think they should have offered much cheaper rates during construction as you could still hear it during the day, so it wasnt quite as relaxing. Looking forward to when it is all finished."

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

10/10 Excellent

"Maybe better breakfast , more food"

Dana Point Dream Home with White Water Ocean View (Permit #STR14-0084)

"Fantastic place to stay super clean and very welcoming!! Super close to the beach!!"

Garabaldi Bungalow STR 25-0002 with private patio

8/10 Good

"Bungalow was the cutest and coziest. Everything you might need is provided. Only thing that was a challenge was that at night is was VERY warm in the bungalow. We figured it out after a very uncomfortable 1st night sleep. We strategically used the fans provided in the closet to pump the AC air from the living room to the bedrooms… we closed the bathroom door to prevent the heat that accumulated there during the day due to skylight. Also had to position one of the fans to counter the heat coming off and radiating from wall heater pilot light….Opening up the windows and doors in the evening definitely helped and having the ceiling fans on all day. Note: it was the peak of summer and the highs were mid to upper 80’s so I’m sure this is not an issue all year…Other than that, our host was super responsive and helpful and the place was super clean and nice!"
