Beach Get Away

Staying at this property was a wonderful retreat. It's minutes from the beach and walkable to restaurants, a market and coffee shops. With a pool and two hot tubs, one with spectacular views we truly enjoyed our stay.

We're pleased that you enjoyed yourselves, Ruth. When we didn't hear from you during or after your stay, we were sure that all met with your approval. Would you please share why you gave a 4 star review instead of 5 stars so that we can make adjustments.

A special property

We have stayed in many vacation rentals in this area for our month long annual vacation. This one has been the best. This unit is positioned such that is catches a wonderful sea breeze right through the front door. The unit is well equipped, comfortable, and a nice size. A great back patio. The best streaming tv setup we have had. The complex is gated, guarded and well maintained. Adequate parking, which is unusual in a beach area. A great walk to the beautiful salt creek beach. The host, Mary Ann, was outstanding. Immediately reaponded to our inquiries with helpful information. We will definitely be back!

Great location!

Loved the location of this condo! The king size bed was comfortable as was the surrounding space. The condo was well supplied and the managers were very responsive. The unit needs some upgrading as it's beginning to show its age.

Sweet little home away from home.

This nicely appointed and welcoming one-bedroom condo provided a comfortable and well-stocked home away from home for me while my own home nearby was undergoing renovations. The owners of the property are easy to contact and responsive to questions or concerns.

Warn out furniture

Outdoor furniture and pavement not clean. Had to call our own cleaning service
Stayed 30 nights in Dec 2020
Response from VrboOwner on 25 Aug, 2023
The outdoor furniture is high quality vintage wicker. Occasionally the landscapers blow dust and debris from sidewalks that lands on our outdoor spaces. Very sorry you didn't mention the cleaning issue to us during your stay. Our on-site manager would have immediately remedied this issue. We gave a discount because your family lives in our neighborhood but that shouldn't have deterred you from sharing your concerns.

A great location and comfortable place

I used the condo as a home base for working remotely while in OC for business. Dana Point is a great area is Salt Creek Beach is one of the best in the area. The condo was the perfect size for me as a single individual "working from home" during the day and I have already made plans to return. Dale (owner) was very responsive and helpful. The place was clean, well maintained, tastefully furnished and had all the basic supplies one would expect. The only very minor issue other potential guests might consider is distance to the beach. It is about a 15-20 min walk from the condo (cutting through the golf course) to get to the beach. Personally I enjoyed this walk and did it almost every evening after work, but others might find it cumbersome.

Great Long Term Stay

My mother in law stayed here for a month while her new home was being finished and it was a very comfortable and lovely stay for her. We live close to the unit and so it was nice for her to have her own quiet get away. The owners and manager were very responsive and kind. Would recommend to all.
