Location, location, location! I believe they are getting ready to tear the present Inn down and build a new state of the art Inn, as part of the Dana Point Harbour redo, therefore the Inn was not modern. Shannon, who checked us in, was wonderful and Diana, In charge of the wonderful breakfast included was also wonderful!

For the tier of hotel it was a pleasant stay. The shower faucet was leaking, but room was otherwise very clean and comfortable. Could use more seating given room was large. Checkin staff was very nice and quick, but checkout took a lil bit of time.

Location is suburb for those who are planning to visit San Diego or the ferry to Catalina Island. The marina area is a must to visit; wonderful for runners or guests to walk in the park. Staff is very courteous and helpful with travel planning. Highly recommend for a visit to many beautiful communities along the Pacific Coast Hgy.

We were in Dana Point visiting family for the weekend. The hotel was clean, nothing exceptional. We brought our dogs with us. There are several areas close where they can do their business. The restaurants adding the Inn are very expensive, more than the typical California restaurants.

We just stayed the night cause we had an early appointment at the Dana Point post office and it was super convenient to the location and also to food and drinks. It was a very quiet location with great harbor views.

I have learned that the property is going to undergo a major renovation by the end of the year. I wish I knew that before I reserved the rooms. I can’t say anything bad about employees but condition of the rooms with spiders inside the bed, phone doesn’t work, poor internet, linen is old…etc.

It was my Mom's 95th 4th of July & so you have to make every 1 count for you never know when it will be her last. There was a real easy straight away I could wheel her in her wheelchair along the boat dock & over the bridge to see the fireworks. Thank you Dana Point Marina Inn for being SO accessable & making this 1 of our cher8shed memories!
