10/10 Excellent
"Our 5 day stay at the Dana was awesome. The grounds are well kept and beautiful. The staff were all so friendly. The Firefly restaurant was delicious and so convenient. Being on a marina the views are amazing especially the stunning sunsets. You can rent bikes , kayaks and jet skis for a fee. The pools were refreshing. The rooms were very clean and they replenished the towels each day. Some say the rooms are outdated a bit but didn’t bother us. You’re on vacation, in the rooms to sleep. Our king size bed and the pillows were comfy . They have a free shuttle that took us to SeaWorld and back….that was cool. We loved our stay and had no complaints. We will be back again."
