I gave it 5 stars because the owner was very quick to respond to one issue, also since this place was a bit more affordable than others, some quirks were to be expected. The main cons are road noise, fully carpeted, and the walk to the beach isn't as short as I had hoped. It's more for scenery and exercise. If you want to go to the beach and being chairs, etc, you should drive. Was a good stay overall.
Unit was exactly as described. Very well stocked with necessities, clean, quiet and across the street from the Strands Beach parking lot.
As expected
Comfortable, close to trails and beach. Host was very nice and responsive. Could use upgrade.
The property was the best equipped that we have stayed in. It had all the kitchen equipment we would need, including a kettle for an English cup of tea! There were beach towels, cool box, beach chairs, board games - everything. The location is beautiful. The walk to the beach through the golf course is really pretty and the beach cafe was great. It was a short drive to the theme parks and if you fancy something a little different then I can highly recommend Caspars Wilderness park a short drive away. It had a range of trails and excellent nature centre, which entertained the kids, plus a play park.
Property was as described in listing. The location was great. From the condo you can walk to a small market and deli, brewery and a couple of really good restaurants. I went for a job from the condo along bike path that leads right to Salt Creek beach. The property was very clean. I liked the patio. Close to everything in Dana Point and short drive to Laguna Beach. I felt this place has great value for the money. I will definitely stay again when returning to visit family.
The location is great. The host is responsive. The kitchen, bathroom and beach supplies are well stocked. It is 10 minutes to the harbor where there are great restaurants and walking paths. The walk to the beach is beautiful but it an uphill climb coming home. Loved the pool and fitness room. Gave the condo a 4 out of 5 overall because it needs a little TLC.
We did not stay. It cost us a lot of money.
This place has everything you need. We have stayed here a couple times in the past and it is our go to when heading to Cali. Jason does an awesome job maintaining the property and communicating with the guests if we ever need anything.
We have actually stayed here more than once! We love it that much! We love the location! There is the most beautiful walk to the beach along the golf course! The place is well stocked with beach chairs, body boards, a grill on the deck, and comfy beds. Thank you for sharing this place with us.
Close to beach, great restaurants, and stores. Communication with owner Jason is great! We have given a few tips to owner that hopefully will make a good property a terrific property. Short stay guests likely will find this property meets every need!
We had a great time visiting Dana Point California and wanted to stay in the same complex that my brother lives in. I looked at MANY 2 bedroom units and ultimately went with this unit due to how well it was appointed: King in master, 2 Queens in secondary bedroom, large table and chairs, plenty of seating in living room, TV’s in every room, a kitchen with all kinds of essentials to prepare and eat meals, and also the beach chairs/towels were nice to utilize. The price per night was good for our family and the community was very friendly. Would definitely stay here again!
Reservation process was easy. Welcome email with instructions from the host was very clear and helpful! Condo was clean and welcoming upon arrival. Host provided plenty of supplies and extras like beach chairs, toys and beach towels for us to use which was great! The space could use some minor fixes as all homes do over time. The fixes would improve overall guest experience but we had a great stay and hope to be able to stay here again in the future!
The condo is very comfortable & we enjoyed having access to the beach chairs, towels, etc! I didn't realize it was on the second floor (I may have missed it in the description) which was a bit tough for my sister who can't walk well, but we managed. We also liked the location since it was right beside the security gate so easy out & in for exploring the area. Parking was never a problem. Jason was great at communication & we ended up staying an extra day which he could accomodate. I should mention the shower faucets took us a bit to figure out - the main knob turns on the water but a plastic thingy adjusts the temperature. Something we had not seen before! We used the washer & dryer too which was nice to have access. The main pool & the hot tub overlooking the ocean (toward the back of the complex) was very cool! Jason has some good maps to help find them. If you are looking for a place that is perfect with high end updates this is probably not your style, but if you are looking for a very homey, comfortable location, Jason's condo is great!
The location is great, the space is nice. The pool is a quick walk & the beach is a short drive. There are a few things that hopefully the hot will fix or address soon. One being the one of the toilets does not have a lid, which is just weird & not conducive to families with kids. Also, the power outlets are bad, they are so worn out that things (ie phones, watches, tablets) don't stay plugged in, to get them to charge we had to share an outlet with the floor lamp which is the only light in the dining space. All in all the place is good for what you need but the bathroom & outlet situation really left us pretty frustrated.
The unit and location were great. We had 6 people in our family and found it to fit all of us perfectly. It came with all of the necessary beach items, which made it very convenient. Thank you Jason, we look forward to our next stay with you!
It is a Condo, and the description of it is very accurate. The kids loved the pool and hot tub. They do have a skylight window in the master bedroom that gives in a lot of light too early in the morning, not great for light sleepers or little kids. The beaches close by are great. I loved that they have a laundry room. They have enough toilet paper and paper towels, garbage bags, and basically everything you would need for the kitchen. The only one request I would give is to have more blankets to keep warm at night, every bed has one but you have to share if two people are sharing the bed. Thank you for sharing your place with us. We had a blast!
We had a wonderful experience renting this property for the week. We chose it to be close to family but were pleasantly surprised by how close it was to all of Dana Point. We went to San Diego for one day with ease. It was peaceful, we enjoyed the gym and the pool onsite and the owners were gracious and communicative. We will be back!
We enjoyed staying at the condo and how close it is to the beach and restaurants!
