• Spacious Coastal Retreat Steps from Harbor-Fireplace - Book HARBOR BREEZES Now

Vacation Concierge proudly presents HARBOR BREEZES, a spacious coastal haven tucked along the highly coveted Santa Clara Avenue in Dana Point’s Lantern District. Just steps from one of the area’s most breathtaking lookout points—where the coastline stretches out in shimmering blues and Dana Point Harbor sparkles below—this retreat invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and savor the beauty of Southern California living.

Inside this expansive 2,400 square foot end unit, sunlight pours through generous windows, creating a bright, uplifting atmosphere from the moment you arrive. The large living room, complete with a cozy fireplace, sets the tone for relaxed evenings, while the comfortable family room offers plenty of seating for movie nights, conversations, or simply unwinding after a day at the beach. The kitchen features granite countertops, a breakfast bar, and travertine flooring—an inviting space for preparing meals before gathering in the welcoming dining area.

Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a private retreat of its own, with a fireplace, a serene sitting area perfect for reading or remote work, a dressing area, and a peaceful balcony where you can sip your morning coffee as ocean breezes drift by. The guest bedroom also enjoys its own balcony, while the bonus third bedroom offers flexibility for additional guests. A full inside laundry room with granite cabinetry and abundant storage adds convenience for longer stays.

HARBOR BREEZES comfortably sleeps seven, making it ideal for couples traveling together, families, or anyone seeking a spacious coastal escape. The primary suite features a king bed and luxurious en suite with soaking tub, while the second bedroom offers a queen bed and the third a twin. A queen sleeper sofa in the den provides additional accommodations. With two full bathrooms upstairs and a convenient half bath downstairs, everyone has room to relax.

Beyond the home, Dana Point offers endless opportunities for exploration—from charming antique shops and art galleries to world class dining and iconic surf spots. Major attractions such as Disneyland, Legoland, Knott’s Berry Farm, SeaWorld, and the San Diego Zoo are all within easy reach, making this an ideal home base for adventure. And for those who love to shop, renowned destinations like South Coast Plaza, Fashion Island, and the Irvine Spectrum are less than an hour away.
With its temperate climate and stunning natural surroundings, Dana Point is perfect for outdoor activities year round—hiking, biking, golfing, sailing, snorkeling, surfing, and so much more. Every day here feels like a breath of fresh ocean air.

HARBOR BREEZES offers the perfect blend of comfort, charm, and coastal beauty—and homes this special book quickly. Secure your stay now and experience Dana Point at its most relaxing and memorable. We look forward to welcoming you as our guest.

Wow - Five Star Stay at 24451!!!

Our stay at 24451 Santa Clara far exceeded our expectations. Spacious and cozy with two gas fireplaces for cool ocean breezes and plenty of room to be together as a family and to enjoy some private time. The property manager was helpful and prepared the place perfectly and professionally including a wonderful welcome gift. Location is incredible - 5 minute walk from 6-8 diverse and excellent restaurants, and cafes, and 10 minutes from both small family beach and large beautiful Doheny Beach. Kitchen is new, containing everything we needed, master bedroom very large with fireplace and spacious deck, large jetted tub spa. Four separate sleeping spaces came in handy for our family and I could imagine two families coexisting comfortably. The location is perfect-- a block from the beach you can't beat this place for the price. We give this our unqualified enthusiastic reservation - We've never stayed in a nicer beachfront condo. Add unlimited parking, both associated with the condo and 40 ft away overnight on the street. Santa Clara is a one way dead end street with no traffic and wonderful walking to the park and the beach. For the price this is the best rental value in Dana Point, period. We will be back!

Our Month in The Lantern District

The kitchen is well-stocked with whatever type of utensil, cookware or dinnerware you might need. The home is spacious with plenty of room for privacy. We were happy to find beach chairs in the garage (should be listed under amenities in description). It would be nice to have a small beach umbrella as well. The walkability of this location to coffee shops, restaurants and the trolley stops is great. Jeff was very responsive when we contacted him regarding a few minor issues. Thanks Jeff! Our only 4-star comments: We did not find the second garage until the day before we left (we feel this info could be better described in the description) when the neighbors pointed it out to us. And the area inside the front door is need of cleaning/painting. We would have loved to have a copy of the Orange County guide that was described in our check in/check out book, but didn't find that. Otherwise, it was great! We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect home in a walk to everything place

We loved our stay at Harbor Breezes. The home is comfortable and thoughtfully equipped, and we could walk everywhere— the paths to the harbor and through the breathtaking Dana Point headlands are a short stroll away, as are shops and restaurants. Plenty of space for dinner guests; we had some family over and they were enchanted with the home and the locale as well. We had a few small maintenance problems and the management company was prompt in sending over Joe, a wonderful handyman. Hated to have to leave!

Location is excellent making shops harbour and beach walkable.

Larger than expected, great layout and well equipped. Bathrooms could do with an upgrade but very clean. Location is very quiet, even with the large Del Prado development starting every morning at 7

Great stay--wonderful location!

We had a great stay at this lovely property! Such a great location--easy walking to the Marina, beach, many restaurants, grocery store--we just Ubered to and from the airport and never needed a vehicle--everything we needed was within walking distance or via an occasional Uber. We were able to see a professional paddle board tournament at Doheny Beach, which was amazing! The condo is spacious, comfortable and contained all that we needed. I can't wait to come back!
