Nice, but...

The hotel is in a wonderful location, great view from a lot of the rooms and within the marina area. However, Dana Point is in the early stages of being demolished and rebuilt - the sketches of the rebuild do not look promising. It's unknown if this hotel is going to be one of the casualties but they don't seem to be putting much into upkeep and certainly not much of anything into any upgrades at this point. Don't know if the rebuilding is the reason but it might be. And that's too bad.

Live life!

Very nice hotel for the location on the marina. No protein items for breakfast, no eggs or meat for gluten free allergies. Also, no microwave in the room to reheat food.

I really appreciated being on the third level, next to the stairs for easy exit. The staff were so kind. I also loved that I could walk everywhere to grab food & drinks. I will definitely be coming back. The rates were fair. I slept well, the bed & pillows were good.
