Top Dana Point Harbor Hotel Reviews

Renaissance Newport Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Went for a July 4th event by the beach. The hotel was very close to the event. Great customer service from the valet, staff attendant and front desk. The room was very clean, spacious and loved the large balcony. Would definitely stay again."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Irvine Spectrum

10/10 Excellent

"Kind of a cool place because of the history of the back hotel - built in the 1800's. Rooms are different - with concrete walls - but we enjoyed the difference. Comfortable beds -nice size rooms. Was a good deal for the money based on other availabilities where prices were almost double for standard chain rooms. Nothing special - but would stay there again."

Casablanca Inn

8/10 Good

"If you’re looking for an affordable place to stay with good walkability the Casablanca Inn is perfect! We only used our car once , we walked to the San Clemente pier, a couple of close by parks and really close to North Beach. The room was nice, king size bed, big screen tv and good size bathroom. There were a couple of things that happened ( bathroom sink clog and lightbulb out in the ceiling light) both were quickly fixed.👍Good breakfast included-waffles, breakfast sandwich, etc and very good coffee!😀All in all for a close to the beach stay that’s not completely “touristy” this is the place to stay!"

14 West Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel for families. Right next to a Ralph's, and 2 restaurants right across the way. Would definitely stay here again. The hotel does definitely need upgrades but overall our room was clean. The suite we stayed at easily accommodated 5 of us, we got the king bed and the sofa pull out which was perfect and we still had another sofa in the room. The pool area was so nice with a gazebo. The location was so perfect to catch the trolley so we didn't need to drive anywhere. All of the staff were super friendly."
