Property was fantastic. Jill the owner could not have been more accommodating. The views from the home and balcony are absolutely breath taking. Everything was perfect. We highly recommend staying here. In fact we plan to make this one of our regular get aways.
Our unit was beautiful, tastefully decorated and with all the comforts of home. We cooked and grilled several times during our stay and had everything we needed. We also were fortunate enough to stay during the 4th of July weekend and saw the fireworks show all along the coastline. The view was phenomenal. Our unit was also provided binoculars so we were lucky enough too see a school of dolphins while sitting out on the deck and sipping our morning coffee. Our host was amazing she made us feel welcome but never infringed on our privacy, it’s a trip we won’t soon forget. We definitely plan on returning!
The view from this suite is incredible! It is one of a few houses on top of the bluff facing the ocean, beside a nature preserve. We were able to watch birds fishing, dolphins frolicking, and even spotted whales from the deck. It was incredible! It’s a short walk to the marina, restaurants, and the incredible sea wall and beaches. We loved being able to walk the paths and hills each day. The area is incredibly quiet so you fall asleep to the sound of the waves. The beds are very comfortable and there is plenty of space for 2 couples or a small family. The one surprise was that the master bath has actually been renovated and it wasn’t shown in the pictures (if you go through the whole virtual tour you can spot it)!
We really enjoyed our stay even though it was unseasonably cool in California the week we were there. Someone else suggested bringing a jacket or something to block the wind when you sit on the deck and I’m so glad they did. The wind can be quite gusty coming off the open ocean.
We had a delightful week and staying in this suite was a big part of it!

Incredible view but fell short
We rented this condo for over a month 11/12/21-12/18/21
The ocean views at this condo are absolutely incredible. The Wi-Fi is fast, working washer and dryer in the unit, the location is top-notch, newer flooring, gas fireplace, interesting art, and nice art lighting. We saw fireworks twice from the small shared entrance/balcony overlooking the ocean.
The condo/host DID NOT provide the privacy or hospitality one would expect of a $10,000+ month-long vacation rental. . The unit is not luxurious. The interior was crammed with too many knickknacks, too much furniture, old kitchen utensils; there were multiple old and redundant kitchen appliances taking up cupboard space. Broken garbage disposal (a post-it note over the switch let us know), old dated range hood, etc.
As far as I’m concerned, the back patio was dated, worn, loud, unusable and unsafe (imagine a large unstable plywood divider-that fell over multiple times-on a dingy patio overlooking a home under active construction. )
I think it’s fair to mention, the owner/neighbor has two small dogs that bark a lot but didn’t really bother us.
(For reference, we stay at VRBOs semiannually and have always enjoyed our experiences.)
Hundreds of ants. Spider bites while sleeping. TVs went out during stay. Parking ticket. Dirty. Photos do not match property. Over priced. Requested refund and no reply. Will never stay here again and even left the property early.

5-week stay
Only redeeming quality was the view. Unit tiny, not 1,000 sqft and was supposed to have a/c but owner pulled a bait and switch at last minute. Said kids would be staying in unit and we would be happier upstairs. Never said it had no a/c. Never saw a child in 5 weeks. Lots of junk in unit. Also owner came in when we were at dinner without our permission to get one of her many paintings stored behind beds and couch. It was not our cup of tea. Will never use VRMO again.
The ocean is my happy place so having this beautiful ocean front view was amazing--so relaxing. The condo was equipped with everything you need. Definitely will return and stay longer.

a wonderful view and beautiful accomodations!
Thank you Jill, for our warm welcome and for sharing your fabulous condo unit! We loved our stay in Dana Point. Your unit was well stocked, clean and relaxing for our vacation. It was perfectly located between the beach and town. We look forward to visiting again!

Dana Point lookout
Yes the view was fantastic! The condo was clean, well appointed and quiet. It is located a short walk down to the water... Also there is a beautiful trail that over looks the water in a protected nature area just steps away. The docent told us that the discovery of tiny little mice had the power to protect the area from development... There is a great coffee shop and restaurants with in walking distance near PCH. I just would wish for a closer Whole foods...Jill was very helpful and showed us her art studio in the back... we shared a common art bond.

Had such a wonderful time at this gorgeous condo!!!! You can't go wrong!!!
Spent the last 4 days at this wonderful condo. You truly can't get a condo with better views. The accommodations were wonderful as well and the king size master bed was fabulous. The experience was so wonderful we are hoping to come back for a month next year.

Looks just like the Pics!
We came to Dana Point for a family wedding at The Ritz but wanted something different from a hotel experience. The location was perfect because we could see The Ritz from the balcony. The pathway to the beach is just a few steps from the condo. The pathway consists of a trail part of the way down and then steps the rest of the way. It is a workout coming back up but totally doable. The condo was immaculate and the parking is good. Don't be afraid to book this unit with your family or with another couple as there are 2 bathrooms and there is just the right amount of seating in the living room which is roomy. Jill was there to greet us when we arrived and she was very friendly. We stayed four nights and the condo had everything we needed. This is a building with 4 units. Jill lives in the building and we had the upstairs unit next to hers. The two lower units have air conditioning and would be great if you are coming during one of the hotter times. We were very comfortable in our unit (The Contemporary) and the thermostat never got above 72. If you have never been to this area it is very dog friendly, everyone walks everywhere and the area is just very neat and clean. Laguna Beach is just a few minutes away as is San Clemente and you can take a ferry to Catalina Island from the Harbor which is very close. We flew into John Wayne International and I would say it was about a 30 minute drive to the condo. The airport is very clean and not very crowded so it was a good experience as well. A few of the hotel guests came to visit us at the condo and they were a bit envious. I wish we could have stayed a few more days as there is so much to do and see. Don't be nervous about booking this vacation home as it was a great experience for us.

We have owned this property for 20 years and the property ourselves. We take great pride in keeping it in excellent condition. I am trained as a scientist but about five years ago began painting. All of the units have original art in them, either mine which is very contemporary or that of my mother’s which is more traditional. Having grown up in Mexico, I am fluent in Spanish and after living in Paris for a couple of years, I am also fluent in French. We’d love to have you visit our little piece of paradise.
