First I have to mention that the breakfast buffet eaten on the patio overlooking the grounds and ocean was one of the best and most beautiful I've had anywhere. This is a laid back yet beautifully elegant property. Location is perfect, Service is excellent. Nobody has mentioned the Spa which is one of the best in southern CA! Our view from the room w/balcony overlooked the pool and ocean, and was beautiful either day or night.

We arrived late in the evening to a very helpful staff. I was with my wife and 5 month old son. The service was very prompt, even when we requested a crib last minute. The room was beautiful and very cozy. The amenities were great and the pool was simple and nice. The concierge was very helpful, although she recommended a very loud restaurant for us with our small son, not very comfortable. And during the day while our son was sleeping the staff was quite loudly cleaning the rooms outside our door. But other than that, it was a great place to bring our family and do business and we will definitely stay here again.

The most outstanding aspect of our visit to the Laguna Cliffs/ Dana Point was the world class service. The bellman who brought our bags to our room noticed my son's surf gear and went out of his way to make sure we had directions to local surf spots where the waves would be best. In the restaurant, our waiter recognized us by name after one meal! Every single employee that we met seemed to genuinely enjoy making sure that guests were taken care of. Our room had a gorgeous vaulted ceiling almost 20 feet high (room 3043) and windows that opened and looked out over meticulously maintained lawns with an unobstructed180 degree view of the ocean. We cannot wait to go back to this hotel.

This hotel is fabulous! It is pricy but worth it. The view of the ocean is breathtaking. Dana Point Harbor is just a short walk away with shops and restaurants. The beach is equally as close. A great place for a getaway!

We checked in and out the same day. Were very disappointed in the rooms. Almost a carbon copy of a Courtyard with smaller bathroom. The patio was very tiny. There was only 1 restaurant on site and no beachfront. The daily parking rate of $22 was the only thing upscale about the place.
