"Nice location above the Dana Point small boat harbor."

"Perched atop a seaside bluff in the upscale Monarch Beach neighborhood of Dana Point, this resort offers sweeping Pacific Ocean views and a private beach club accessed via a charming tram ride—serving as a blissful gateway to California coastal luxury."

"Loved the location and amenities! It had everything we needed. Beach was beautiful- I could watch the surfers all day long! You have a shuttle that takes you to the beach if you don’t want to walk 2 minutes :) and you can request them to set up the chairs and umbrellas, get boogie boards. I find it a very nice add-on. Staff was beyond attentive!! Food at restaurants was very good! You almost don’t need to leave, but you do have a gorgeous area around so it’s nice to venture off to San Clemente...

"This is probably the best hidden gem in San Clemente. My wife and I live in the city and wanted a staycation place and found this. A Hawaii vibe with a fire pit overlooking the ocean and walkable to pier, restaurants and the downtown. Rooms have beautiful views of the sunset. Great great time. Highly recommended. Sam and Jeanne.
