Top Salt Creek Beach Hotel Reviews

Best Western Plus Marina Shores Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at this hotel for 1 night to visit San Juan Capistrano. The area is nice and clean with easy access to stores, food, freeway, and ocean. Our room /hotel was clean, staff were friendly and responsive, and we appreciated the free breakfast in the A.M. The parking structure can feel a little cramped when you have 2 cars passing, however not significant enough to impact my experience. Overall a positive stay."

Beachfront Inn and Suites at Dana Point

8/10 Good

"The location is nice because the hotel is right in front of the beach, although access to beach entry is still a little ways down. I stayed in the 1 bedroom suite with an ocean view and the room was like a little 1 bedroom suite apartment. It was comfortable and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen even had plenty of dishes and some cookware. The only downside is that it can use some very needed updates and repairs. The sofa in our room was very dated and not very clean. It was comfortable to sit on but I did feel the need to put a sheet over it as sitting directly on the stained cloth felt uncomfortable. The balcony sliding door does not lock, So for small children this may be a problem. But overall it was a nice relaxing room and area."

Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"I will start by saying I had the BEST experience out of all the hotels I ever stayed in. My Boyfriend and I booked this place to enjoy our babymoon which is a mini getaway before our baby girl arrives. From the moment we arrived we were greeted by Edna , prior to arriving my boyfriend had spoken to her as we were concerned about having a construction view instead of an ocean view with a patio that we booked. However, after speaking with Edna she definitely took care of us. She was very pleasant, welcoming,and helpful. We checked in with no issues and was advise that we were given an ocean view with no patio as we originally booked , but was told to connect with Collin the next day for any openings Room: Our room was very clean, the decor felt homey and the bathroom was very well maintained. The next day we also connected with Collin as wanted to see if he would recommend any place to have dinner/breakfast . He followed up to see if there was a room available and let me tell you ! Collin took really good care of us. These both employees went above and beyond for us ! At the end of our trip my boyfriend propose to me right by the boats . All this time Edna and Collin knew and I just want to say Thank you! You both made this moment extra special."
