Lovely location. Great space. Comfortable beds. Good kitchen. Unfortunately the property has seen better days as it was somewhat shabby. The online description and photos call it "luxurious" throughout. However, both the photos and description were deceiving as it was actually well worn. Having said that, we were comfortable and enjoyed our stay.
Be aware that we found communication with the host to be challenging until I found Jason's direct phone number and sent a text. He did not answer messages sent through VRBO. However, he did answer text messages quickly so I suggest reaching out to him via text (Jason: 310-200-1814).
We visited Dana Point on an annual "girls weekend" with a group of women from around the country. As always, our time together was wonderful and Dana Point was a terrific destination. I just wish the property was described more accurately and the host was more responsive. Keeping these two issues in mind, I would still recommend it - especially since the price is reasonable for the area.
