A lovely spacious apartment in a quiet residential area. Close to several main roads it’s an excellent location for getting down to the beach and visiting friends inland.Our only negative was that the plug in the en-suite wash basin doesn’t lift properly, so it is almost impossible to rinse the basin thoroughly after use.

Clear instructions and directions. Great location. Very clean. Well stocked/appointed. We had a marvelous stay. Minor issues of note… The water dispenser barely put out a trickle of water. Perhaps the filter needs to be changed? There were no coffee filters for the drip coffee maker.

Property was immaculately clean, warm and welcoming. Comfortable living room and the multiple outdoor spaces only added to a great stay. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was well stocked. Location provides easy access to many great restaurants and attractions. Managing agent was very responsive. This was our first stay but it will definitely not be our last!

Very clean property! Great for 3-4 people. Easy check in and check out. It does share a wall, Wi-Fi, and furnace with the other unit so you will not have control over temperature. Other than that everything was great! We had a minor issue with Wi-Fi but the property manger was very attentive and responsive!

In response to the furnace, this unit does have their own separate thermostat with their own full control. And yes, this is a duplex, so the walls are shared. We apologize if you experienced an issue with the furnace and if we had known we would have been happy to assist you. It was pleasure hosting you and we welcome you back anytime for another stay.

We spend 3 nights in Miriam’s Dana Point home and enjoyed it very much. It is a comfortable 2 bedroom/2 bath home in a quiet residential area close to lots of attractions. It has a lovely outdoor space and lots of seating both indoors and outdoors. Check in instructions were clear and easy. Kitchen was well equipped and even had coffee and tea as well as cookies. The only feedback I would give is that although I know a lot of airbnb properties are doing it now, a 10am check out is pretty early. And as stated in their notes, the cleaning crew will be there by 10 am and they absolutely were. Overall is was a very comfortable stay in a very good location.

Thank you so much for the kind and thoughtful review, Elizabeth! We’re really glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and found the home comfortable and well-located. It’s great to know you appreciated the outdoor space, kitchen setup, and little touches like the coffee, tea, and cookies.
We totally understand your note about the 10am checkout — we do our best to give guests as much time as possible, but with same-day turnovers, it helps our cleaning team get the home ready for the next guests. That said, we always try to accommodate later checkouts when the schedule allows, so feel free to reach out next time!
We’d love to welcome you back anytime you’re visiting Dana Point again. Thanks again for staying with us!

The duplex was clean and well accommodated for our week long stay. Very comfortable for 4 people. Kitchen was good but not stocked with staples as mentioned. We purchased what we needed to make meals. Vegetable garden was not in season ( maybe update description to be more accurate). Lack of cable was a bummer- no local news - had to scramble to find a way to watch NBA playoffs. Overall it was a great place to stay and we would book again.

Communication about Sand and Surf being associated with Vrbo was not clear at first. My first thought was Scam! Not clear references. Online description lead me to believe all beds had pillow top mattresses, the master was very hard. The master bath sink was draining very slow. Overall nice place with excellent amenities.

Hi Jerry,
Thank you for staying with us and for your review. We apologize that it was not clear our vacation rental management company is Sand and Surf Vacation, but are always happy to confirm any information about our business or listings when asked. The mattresses are pillow topped, but firm, and think this is personal preference. We apologize about the slow draining in the sink. We did find it after your stay and cleared the pipes. We are always happy to assist our guests with these small maintenance type issues when they arise during guest stays when we are notified about them.
Thank you again for boking with us we would be happy to host you again.

Overall, this was a great vacation rental. It is very nicely appointed and spotless. Every amenity seems available. Communication with owner was really good. Just a warning about the stairs that must be climbed to get to the front door. Not perfect for people who have trouble with stairs. But honestly, that’s the only, slight challenge. Well, there is no direct access to the beach, it is a very short drive.

We loved everything about our 2 month stay in this home. From the moment we booked, Miriam was a lovely host- kind and attentive, detail oriented and always available and quick to respond to answer any questions. The home itself is amazing, it’s gorgeous and luxurious yet cozy and inviting and feels like home. Cleanliness was top notch- white and bright and sparkling in every room. Mattresses and furniture are so very comfortable and great quality. We loved the well stocked kitchen, the organic garden of fresh veggies and citrus, and of course the front deck with stunning ocean views and glorious sunsets. The neighbors are friendly and welcoming, and the neighborhood itself is fabulous- just a short walk to the beach or beautiful Pines park. Highly recommend booking your next vacation here... it beats and 5 star resort any day!

Great location. Property was clean and had good furnishings. It would have been helpful if there was a list of where things were stored. We disclosed, prior to arriving, that there would be six of us. Only six bath towels were provided. My grandchildren have skin issues that doctors recommend only one use towels be used for every bath. That required us to wash towels daily. We found after several days that there were six beach towels in the cabinet over the dryer. We began using beach towels for showering. Washing clothes daily on vacation isn't my idea of a vacation. A couple more bath towels would have been helpful or notice so that we could have brought our own. Also I know this is out of the control of the owner, but the neighbor next door has a construction truck that they park at the edge of the driveway. The truck is large and does somewhat encroach past the edge of the curb. The owner only allows the short-term rental occupant to park on one half of the driveway. There is a white line down the middle of the driveway. Between dodging the construction truck, a front fence post and staying in the white lines with a rented minivan was challenging and typically took a couple of attempts. Renters with small cars will not have a problem.

Thank you for your feedback and for noting the cleanliness, furnishings, and location of the property. We’re glad you enjoyed those aspects of your stay.
To clarify regarding towels — our listing clearly states that the maximum number of overnight guests allowed is six, and accordingly, six bath towels are provided. This is standard for vacation rentals. While we understand your personal preference for additional towels due to your family’s needs, we encourage guests with specific requirements to bring extras from home. We also provide a washer and dryer in the unit for convenience, and as you mentioned, additional beach towels were available in the cabinet for your use.
Regarding parking, the property includes one designated space, as described in the listing. Any vehicles or encroachments by neighbors are outside of our control, as they too have a right to park in their spaces. The driveway does have a white line for guidance, and many guests with smaller vehicles find it manageable.
We appreciate your comments and will use them to ensure clarity in our listing. Thank you again for staying with us.
Warm regards,
The Team at Sand and Surf Vacation

Nothing beats California costal weather and a short walk to the beach anytime! We stayed with our two young kids here for 6 months, and really enjoyed the atmoshpere. The house has everything needed for a family of 4 to walk in and live comfortably. The indoor and outdoor spaces are bright. The neighborhood is great for stolling with a couple of parks nearby and a pleasant breeze. The hosts are delightful people.
