The only negatuve is you need a car to get anywhere. Ubers are expensive in Cali ...everything is expensive. While i enjoyed the Dana Califirnia is way too expensive .

The place itself is beautiful and amazing! The only things we did not like were the noise from the constant planes leaving the airport and the highway being right there, as well as the $35 per day parking fee they charge. Other than that, the staff was kind and helpful, the place clean and beautiful, and location with things to do nearby was perfect!

The property landscape is nice and well kept. The dining options within a walking distance are limited and are not vegetarian friendly ( mostly seafood). The room was clean and in good condition but can be a little noisy.

Great staff and awesome property. We loved both the pools. The kids movie night and swim every night was so cool. My daughter enjoyed that activity very much. Very relaxing vacation for us. Conviently located near SeaWorld which made it even better. Would definitely come back again.

Check in was a breeze! We were offered a multitude of upgrade options. The view of the marina was stunning and the walk along the water and the sunsets were spectacular. We had dinner at the restaurant and sat outside. It was delicious and Manny our server was knowledgeable and friendly and made the experience all the more enjoyable.

Lovely resort style hotel which was good value for money and in a lovely location overlooking the bay. Nice hotel room , clean, comfortable and spacious. It can be quite noisy however as it’s near the airport, our room was on the ground floor and you could hear the room above us walking about which wasn’t great as it did wake us up a few times. Parking is available however it is $35 which is quite expensive compared to some other hotels in the area.

It was so beautiful. There is music playing, but not aggressively, as you walk the grounds by the magnificent pool and restaurant. The view was absolutely amazing. The staff was so helpful and competent. It’s a quick 5 or 10 minute drive to anything you need. I couldn’t have asked for anything more. My daughter was overworked and exhausted when she arrived, when she left, she was a new woman. The beds (which is usually a big deal for me) were so comfortable. It was a wonderful atmosphere and we had a delightful time. Thanks so very much.

A generator was being installed in the outside of the building or two days of my stay and there was drilling, hammering the entire time until 6 p.m. The room upon checking in was 80 degrees. And the air conditioner was in the bathroom and didn't reach the entire room. Very hot and uncomfortable.
