Top South Day Use Beach Hotel Reviews

Capistrano Coast House

10/10 Excellent

"Cute place to stay adjacent to the beach. Room was clean and cozy, patio was lovely and quite romantic. Aldo has amazing customer service skills that really enhanced our stay. I would stay again and would recommend to other couples looking for a sweet getaway."

Best Western Plus Marina Shores Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is located in a great area, lots of restaurants, beach is close, and the highway. But most important is that it is still quite. Staff was nice, polite. As for the room, interior was a bit outdated, but clean and had everything you would need. Our room had a bit of a stale smell but with the AC on it was better. It was a bit loud on the hallway, with the linen chute in front and the elevator close by. Was suprised the parking is not included in the price so make sure you do check all the details before booking, as it is additional 25 dollars. Lastly breakfast, honestly, not really great. No fruit, only two oranges left, coffee was good, hot section had some eggs but again nothing was left, chorizo was a strange choice, french toast as well almost empty, best part of it was the waffle maker. We were hopping for a better offer, and even with this one everything was mostly empty around 9am."

Best Western Plus Dana Point Inn-by-the-sea

10/10 Excellent

"So obviously the location was our first purpose for booking let me tell you I have traveled for work and spent many of nights in hotels for business or pleasure I have met many staff members over the years, all the stuff that I ran into at this Best Western were excellent friendly, welcoming and very helpful when the times came I had an issue with the Expedia looking process and being disappointed and one of the staff members Napoleon without hesitation made one of my nights even more awesome than it already began and it had nothing to do with the company just the booking agent Expedia. Whomever manages this place and hires their employees as a small business owner myself and Prides myself in whom works for me and how they manage themselves I feel like this property owner and management team takes great pride versus just finding whomever they can off the streets to fill a void. Thank you Best Western Dana Point"

Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort and Spa

8/10 Good

"I understand that this is a very high end resort and spa, but the fact there we received no forewarning that more than half the resort was closed off for remodel made our stay less than desirable. Staff was helpful and friendly. But the available amenities were not accommodating for the amount of guests present. For the amount of money paid this was not worth the cost."
