Top South Day Use Beach Hotel Reviews

Best Western Plus Marina Shores Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is old but well maintained and clean. Rooms appear to have been recently painted and carpeted. Overall better than expected."

Capistrano Coast House

8/10 Good

"Beautiful and unique hotel. Loved the patios and outside furniture (and lounge chairs). The fountain helps with the noise of the highway. Slept great on the very comfortable bed. Continental breakfast was not much to speak of but maybe that improves when they open the restaurant. Parking can be tough if all spots are full. There is a train track near by if you are a light sleeper bring earplugs but it was well insulated."

Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great time, rooms were clean but our balcony door was super hard to close. Other than that, location was great and the property was clean."

Beachfront Inn and Suites at Dana Point

10/10 Excellent

"Had our bridal party stay here for our wedding it was nice clean and very friendly people"

Waldorf Astoria Monarch Beach

10/10 Excellent

"I believe the resort needs some activity on the weekdays for children, at least on summer days. Maybe a room with some kind of games."

Residence Inn by Marriott Dana Point San Juan Capistrano

10/10 Excellent

"Loved kitchen"

Capistrano Surfside Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely stay with everything we needed."
