Top Dana Strands Beach Hotel Reviews

Best Western Plus Marina Shores Hotel

8/10 Good

"The only thing I would change is the quality of the breakfast. But that's true at most hotels. Better bread products and higher quality eggs would be nice. Maybe go a little more European, with some fresh fruit and cheese."

Hilton Garden Inn Dana Point Doheny Beach

8/10 Good

"My room had everything I needed to enjoy my three night stay. There was a generously sized mini fridge and a microwave in the room. There were drawers to put my clothes in. There was a desk with plugs on top to work. There was a very nice shower with good water pressure. All of the valet staff, especially CJ and Jon, were very helpful. I wanted to let the front desk staff know that there are no more bike rentals next to Doha Café across the street. A couple of employees at the hotel seemed to think it was still there. Just FYI. I was a little sad that when I first walked in the hotel, there was a male bartender behind the bar on the ground floor. I smiled at him, and he responded with “we’re closed.” I thought it would be more hospitable to reply with “good evening” especially since I had been in the hotel a few seconds. I clarified with him that I was just smiling at him and I did not want anything from him. The rooftop restaurant and bar are special with a gracious server, I did not eat or drink anything, but I looked at the menu and the prices seemed reasonable and it’s a lovely space with a fire pit and little café tables with a view of the ocean beyond the trees at Doheny State Park. There was a strong mechanical buzzing sound with a vibration coming from my bathroom area the entire time. It low key disrupted my nervous system. I don’t recommend 349 if that kind of noise bothers you. Overall, I recommend this hotel. It had everything for a comfortable stay."

Stunning Multimillion Dollar Oceanfront -interior by Artist SPECIAL 2026 PRICES

10/10 Excellent

"The property was perfect and Jill, the host, is absolutely amazing. We have already booked again for next year because we were so happy with it. The views can’t be beat in the location, puts you walking distance, not just from the beach, but easily into town. There were plenty of linens, and the beds were incredibly comfortable as well. Great place!!"

Spectacular Oceanfront - the Best Views in Dana Point !!!!!

8/10 Good

"It was a busy holiday weekend. The host was very friendly and helpful in planning places to go see fireworks and any other help we needed. It was a beautiful place with stellar views! Would definitely go again. Close to everything."

Dana Dream Coastal Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"We were in town for a wedding and we brought our 11 month old baby. Everything was very clean, easy to use & the backyard is also very clean along with the Hot tub. They had a pack and play so we did not need to bring ours for the baby to sleep in. They had a couple beach chairs, little beach umbrella for our visit to baby beach. It was great! we were able to put our little guy down in the evenings in time to enjoy a little relaxation in the Hot tub at the end of each night. Farmers market on Saturday was perfect and able to walk to no problem for a cup of coffee, light breakfast and some shopping with some local vendors. Thank you,Bo"
