Location! Awesome!

Guest: dwcaz (Phoenix)
Date of Stay: 10/11/11 Review Submitted: 10/27/11

My husband & I were in CA for a destination wedding in San Clemente. Being from AZ, we have spent lots of time in Southern CA. I fell in love with this location. It was close to everything! And the condo itself was roomy and very well tended (The 2 bathrooms were a plus as we weren't getting in each others way). The area is quiet & serene. My only regret is that we were so busy with visiting friends, family & wedding party that we were hardly able to spend much time there.

Great Beach Property

Guest: Bob and Candy (Calgary, Alberta Canada)
Date of Stay: 09/17/11 Review Submitted: 10/11/11

This condo unit was perfect for our stay in Dana Point CA. We travelled to this complex with family members who also rented condo’s in the same complex all within walking distance of each other. This condo is an upper unit tucked away in a very private part of the complex. There was no noise from either neighbours or road noise from any of the routes nearby. The Condo was just as it was stated the owners description, amenities, photos etc., very clean and well equipped with most everything you would need. The kitchen is roomy, well equipped and easily useable. The dining area is spacious and can easily accommodate dinner guests. The balcony with its furnishings was very comfortable and provided a view of the ocean. The three balcony doors create a great cross breeze if needed and lots of natural light. There are ceiling fans in the main room and bedroom and they gentle move air throughout. The décor is cozy and comfortable, “like the cottage” feel. Master bedroom is spacious and the bed extremely comfortable; maybe too much so! The unit and complex is very close to shopping areas, recreational areas, restaurants, grocery chains and most importantly the beach; actually several beaches. The owner has provided a menu of places to see, places to eat and nearby attractions. Travel to and from the complex using Selva Road, Pacific Coast Highway and I5 was effortless and rather uncomplicated. The owner was very accommodating as to our enquires and very efficient in detailing our rental stay. In all we had a very restful and enjoyable visit and for sure will come again to this excellent vacation property

condo in Dana Point

Guest: Ken and Odette (Ottawa, Canada)
Date of Stay: 09/24/11 Review Submitted: 10/08/11

My husband and I were looking for a place half way between San Diego and LA, close to the beach, in a quiet area...and easily accessible: we found it with this property. It was simply perfect - a few minutes walk to the beach, within walking distance to downtown Dana Point, an easy drive to grocery/drug stores. It is also close to Huntington and Newport beaches...great places to go for a stroll or grab a bite to eat or shop. San Diego Zoo and Historical San Diego are approx. 1 hour away...San Juan Capistrano is less than 30 minute away - the Mission is a must see. This condo was perfect for us, very clean, very comfortable with attention to details: I particularly liked the kitchen as it contained all the necessary gadgets (food processor, coffee maker), dishes and utensils...including a juicer: I especially enjoyed making/drinking fresh squeeze orange juice every morning - and laundry facility. When we travel, we quickly tire of restaurant food so being able to cook and eat at the condo was great. The owner answered all of our questions in a timely fashion. She had provided clear instructions prior to our arrival so finding the place was easy: she had also provided detailed information at the condo on places to see, things to do and how to operate everything including the BBQ. The photos on the website do reflect the property. I would recommend this condo to any couple wishing to spend a romantic time away from the stress of every day life. I would recommend it to family and friends....we would certainly return if only we lived within driving distance!

Beach Cottage Condo

Guest: Bill and Patti (Mission Viejo, CA)
Date of Stay: 08/28/11 Review Submitted: 09/09/11

We live just 10 miles east of this condo but we love to wake up by the beach and watch the sunset every night. We've always thought this is one of the prettiest beaches in southern California, and it's proximity to the Dana Point Harbor makes it a perfect location. The decor of the condo has a perfect "beach cottage" feel to it, and we were suprised at how quiet it is there. During the week, we had the pool almost to ourselves and enjoyed the ocean view from the spa. The owner was very helpful and the property was clean and well mainained. As locals, our favorite restaurant is The Harbor Grill at the Dana Point Harbor. Be sure to visit to Ocean Institute when it is open to the public on the weekends. Jon's Fish in the Harbor is a fun place for lunch. You can see expert surfing almost any day at Salt Creek Beach, which is right next to Strands Beach.

Date of Stay: 07/23/11 Review Submitted: 08/26/11

This was out third time visiting this lovely unit in Laguna Niguel Shores and our 6th time in the complex over the past few years. The unit is always spotless and fully equipped; the location is perfect - 1 row away from Sekva road so no road noise, yet a nice view of the ocean, a second story unit - again no noise from someone above, and comfortable, clean furniture, etc.........Our first pick whenever we can get away from Scottsdale and spend some time on the beach.

Wonderful Beach Home

Guest: Tim and Debbie (Monrovia, CA)
Date of Stay: 08/13/11 Review Submitted: 08/23/11

We had a great time and did more walking than we ever have because of the location of this home, right at the beach. We were looking for a restful, beach vacation and really found it. The condo is > comfortable, clean and pleasant and was just perfect for the two of us. We had access to everything we could want. Can't thank you enough for a wonderful vacation.

Date of Stay: 07/30/11 Review Submitted: 08/11/11

My husband and I celebrated our 30th anniversary at Coleen's lovely condo for a week. It is filled with tasteful designer touches, very comfortable, clean, quiet, and a terrific location across from the beach & near the harbor. There is also an inviting patio/BBQ grill to enjoy any time of day with a partial ocean view. The pool and hot tub in the complex is an added plus. We shall return!

Pretty condo in great location!

Guest: Beach Lovers (Texas)
Date of Stay: 07/03/11 Review Submitted: 07/15/11

My husband and I stayed at this condo 7/3-10/11. The condo was extremely clean and decorated very nicely as can be seen in the accurate photos. The condo is in a very good location within 15-20 min. walking distance to coffee shops and restaurants (Dana Point town and Harbor area). There is a black top short cut walking path from Selva Rd. to Pacific Coast Highway. Also very close walk to Salt Creek Beach (escalator if cannot walk up/down somewhat steep hill). We are an active couple in our 50’s and had no issue walking to either location and appreciated the chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, beach towels and even small cooler provided in the condo. The condo is well equipped with WIFI, maps, kitchen utensils, dishwasher, toaster, microwave, ironing board/iron, hair dryer, new refrigerator and there is a stackable washer/dryer if needed. Owner’s pride in ownership shows in the various upgrades (wood floors, kitchen cabinets, paint colors) and we enjoyed sitting outside on the patio furniture. There are ceiling fans and sliding glass doors for cool cross breezes to keep the temperature comfortable. The king size bed has upgraded linens and mattress. Dana Point is also relatively close to the outdoor shopping mall in Newport Beach and various restaurants, shops and beaches in San Clemente and Laguna Beach. The owner was very accommodating and quick to respond to questions. We would definitely rent this condo again in the future.

We enjoyed every minute of our stay in Dana Point. The apartment is very comfortable, everything is in perfect condition. Beach is within a real walking distance. So, all was just as described or even better. Great restaurant in Dana Point Harbour-The Harbour Grill. We can recommend this place for holiday for everyone. Sawa and Maciej, Warsaw, Poland
