Top Dana Point Harbor Hotel Reviews

Pendry Newport Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at the Pendry was amazing. Couldn’t have asked for a better weekend. The entire staff was great, especially Eric, Gen and Deven. My family of 6 thoroughly enjoyed the hospitality from these 3. They went above and beyond from beginning to end - catering to all requests. Thank you Eric, Gen and Deven for taking care of my kids, my wife and myself the entire weekend. The Pendry is in great hands with you three. We will be back soon! "

Surf & Sand Laguna Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Came for a weekend getaway with my boyfriend. We were greeting by friendly valet and front desk people. They even offered welcome champagne. We got there early so we had to wait for a room, but it was worth it since we got upgraded to a different room. The views here are worth it. You have access to a pool but we went down to the beach instead. We enjoyed drinks in their lobby area that even had someone playing live music. We dined inside our room for dinner since our view was perfect. Everywhere we went the staff greeted us with smiles and were so nice. Honestly, this was the best hotel stay I've ever had. We're definitely coming back."

Hyatt Regency Newport Beach

8/10 Good

"We checked in easy, the staff are all friendly The grounds are a bit old and getting run down . The rooms were clean and well kept, but could also use an update . Strongly recommend that they put a nightlight in the bathroom, it was so dark we could not get around unless the light was on And the lights are super bright, not so easy to get around the room at night ."

Dana Point Marina Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We had an excellent experience! The property is a little dated but it was affordable in an absolutely beautiful area. I’ve heard it’s going to be demolished to make way for a new facility. Honestly just wish they would choose to refresh this one. It has a rich history and is a sweet place to stay."
