Location was awesome, Alex was super easy to work with and the home was cute and well appointed. Beds are new and comfortable and we had all the necessities. Home got a little warm in the afternoon but hey it was summer! Dana is cute and located in the heart of the "Beach Cities".
Les points faibles : Emplacement et exactitude de lâannonce
If you don't mind staying in a dump this is the place for you.
Our stay here was awful.I donât suggest bringing a pet since the yard is not enclosed. This place is basically an old dumpy place but it was clean. There is no air conditioning so it was unbelievably hot. I would not recommend staying here.
The beach cottage was as advertised. Older property in a quiet neighborhood. Quite small, very clean. All that I require. Walking distance to the harbor. Met my family there for coffee in the mornings. Easy drive, easy walk.
Steps protrude into the driveway. One car fits easily, two if small.
Thank you for making this property available.

Great Place, Great Location, Great Response to your Requests
Prior to our arrival, Alex opened all of the windows and turned on the fans (a lot of houses do not have central air, with it being summer, it was rather hot one of the nights but cools down).
The house is well stocked with clean linens and towels. It was really nice to have a washer/dryer!
The neighborhood was extremely quiet!! The location was perfect for a nice run to the Harbor ( yummy acai bowls there)!
The grill area in the back was nice to have dinner ( we avoided cooking inside to decrease the heat). Alex was very prompt in exchanging the propane tank!!
Thank you so much for a great stay! We frequent the area and look forward to staying again!
Start to finish was one of our best experiences w/VRBO
From the beginning, I knew our California visit was going to be a good one. Alex responded to our request in under 15 minutes and our place was booked w/in 20. Our stay in Dana Point was a good one from the time we pulled up. The neighborhood felt very safe and the home was cozy for my family of six. Two kids shared a room and two kids had a futon of their own in the family room. The kitchen was more than adequate for our stay. Our beds and pillows were extremely comfortable. Everything was clean and was a nice respite from days at the beaches. There is a grocery store down the street and coffee houses easily within reach. Honestly, Alex's responsiveness and genuine interest in our overall enjoyment of his home were huge factors in why such a good review. We will happily seek out this home the next time we're looking in the Dana Point area.
Great little cottage convenient to everything in Dana Point. Very clean, very comfortable beds, most of what you need in the kitchen. Took advantage of the back patio to read in the afternoon, very private. The neighborhood is very quiet. Walkable to restaurants, and everything in the Lantern district. Great communication from the host. Definitely looking forward to staying here again.
Pros
Great location in Dana Point
Very clean and quiet
Room for one car in driveway, possibly 2 small cars.
Cons
Description says it will sleep 6, we booked for 5 and paid the extra charge. However there were only 4 bath towels and minimal bedding - luckily 3 of our party couldnât make it - I donât think it would have worked for 5. It was fine for two.
Very bare bones amenities in terms of toiletries and some of the nice touches of home, however the kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils
The outside areas could use some attention
We drove out to visit our son who is stationed at Camp Pendleton. The house was perfect for our Thanksgiving with my wife, our daughter, son, and the family dog.
Easy to find, sparkling clean, well appointed, and very convenient to everything in the area. A nice safe and quiet neighborhood. We loved the home! We will come again! Alex was great to communicate with. We felt at home! Lovely!
Alex was very easy to communicate with and a wonderful host. The house was very clean, it is in a quiet neighborhood with easy access to restaurants, coffee shops, the harbor and the beaches. San Juan Capistrano is so vibrant now with great downtown happenings and this house is so close. Thank you for a great stay!
The cottage was very clean and comfortable In a very nice neighborhood right off of PCH. Convenient to stores and restaurants. A bit of a distance to the harbor but lovely views for most of the walk. Iâm always grateful when owners are open to allowing dogs since they are furry family. I would definitely stay here again.
We really enjoyed this property. It was cute and comfortable and the perfect distance from so many things. The patio was awesome and a great way to unwind after the day. The only things we didn't have were wash clothes and dish towels. The only improvement I could suggest was maybe some weather stripping on the exterior doors - you could see light on all sides. Definitely would stay here again!
Our VRBO stay in Dana Point was a wonderful vacation for our family. So close to the harbor and beach and an unexpected bonus that the Whale and Dolphin Festival fell exactly the time we were there. The beach house was very comfortable and clean. Everything we needed was there except a stool to reach the tall cupboards in the kitchen. A handicap for us short people. We casually looked for one but did not find it. Perhaps next time we will gift one to the house. Definitely will consider this property again.
We love the house. Highly recommended for a great vacation. Close to the beach, Disneyland and Knottâs Berry Farm .
The owner was very accommodating and helpful. We will definitely come back.

World traveler excited about life, new experiences and California, a state of unparalleled beauty.
This house is owned by my Mom. I manage it. It is cozy and very comfortable. It is within the walking distance to shopping, restaurants and recreational activities. Practically all guests have been saying that the location is superb.
The location is hard to beat. Please read the reviews. There is a great variety of all kinds of activities, beautiful Harbor/Marina and of course the beach. Doheny Beach is very famous but I prefer the Strands Beach which in my opinion is wide and spectacular. The adjacent Salt Creek beach is spectacular as well.
