Top South Day Use Beach Hotel Reviews

Hilton Garden Inn Dana Point Doheny Beach

8/10 Good

"We spent most of our time at the beach, which was very conveniently located just a few minutes away. Staff allowed us to borrow beach equipment (folding chairs, toys, boogie boards) which was so awesome of them! Breakfast for a fee was tasty with good service. Would definitely stay again!"

Capistrano Coast House

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms are nicely remodeled. There is great character and charm to the entire property. Parking was limited and we had to park on street. Staff were very attentive to any needs we had and were prompt in helping us. Our room had double doors adjoining our room to the neighbors so we could hear conversations and their tv. The view of the ocean is nice and despite being on PCH traffic noise was minimal."

Dana Point Marina Inn

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our stay. But for the price, our expectations were a little higher. Mouse poop on our counters, and lots of broken or rusty things in our room and around the property."

10/10 Excellent

"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place was awesome. Very clean and well appointed. The backyard space was fantastic, sort of an after thought when we booked but surprisingly became our favorite space. We had coffee out there every morning and a night cap out there every night. Outdoor/beach equipment in the garage was useful and appreciated. All said, it was perfect and we would stay there again."
