It was a great stay at this property. We were pleased with the cleanliness and availability of items. The location was excellent, close to shopping areas by foot and by car and driving distance to the beach. I would recommend this property.
This condo is located in a surprisingly quiet gated community in Dana Point, near the border of Laguna Beach & Laguna Niguel. It was spacious and offered every amenity one could ask for. The owner was quick to respond when we had a question. We enjoyed the fully stocked kitchen, private laundry, TV streaming services, and community pool/jacuzzi.
Perfect location in a gated community. Close to all the beaches and attractions. The condo was very clean and nice. The residents were also very nice. Would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful Stay
Well located and appointed condo, the owners have thought of everything! Complex amenities (pool, tub, gym) were great too. Thanks Rob and Thao!
Great spot in an Apartment complex in Dana Point. Short ride share to Doheney beach. Inside the unit there is everything you need for the trip. Master bedroom is nice with a nice bed and pillows. The other bedroom can sleep 3 if needed and the couch in the living room is large enough for another.
My husband and I stayed here to celebrate my birthday. We especially enjoyed walking to Salt Creek Beach even though the return trip was mostly an uphill walk. The area is beautiful and we utilized the swimming pool and hot tub daily. The condo has everything one needs to cook meals in the well appointed kitchen. The living room was comfortable and spacious.
My only complaints were the dirty bedroom carpets, stained sheets and patio that could use some cleaning. However, I’m a super clean person so I’m probably more fussy then most. The rest of the condo was very clean.
Everything about this property worked perfectly for us! We were a party of 3 in town to attend the Ohana Fest on Doheny Beach…..perfect location! We were even able to arrive to the property early on check in day and the condo was spotless.
Thank you and we will definitely rent again!
This location was perfect for us because we have family nearby. For the same reason, we didn't use the kitchen much, but it seemed well-equipped. The beds were very comfortable. One complaint - the blinds in one bedroom allow in a lot of light from the outside lights in the walkway by the entrance. It would be great if there were curtains that blocked that light. Also, a couple of the ceiling lights do not have fixtures and are bare bulbs. Other than that, the place is well appointed and very comfortable.
The condo was very clean and comfortable. The owners are friendly and helpful. Great neighborhood, loved the short walk to the beach. Would definitely stay again.
Great rental in a beautiful area. Would stay again!

Loved It and Would Do It Again!
My son flew in from Denver to join me for a special Father's Day and some fun in the sun. It was great! The condo was perfect and Rob (the owner) was very helpful and professional. I would highly recommend it. The only reason I give it four stars instead of five is not about the condo, it was great, but the marketing materials tend to give the impression that the beach is a short walk away. It isn't really, and requires walking on some streets that can be a bit busy so the proximity and access to the beach/ocean isn't quite as advertised. Still, it was very nice, very comfortable, and I would highly recommend it as a place to stay in Dana Point. I plan to stay there again soon.

Great Property!
Great property for the family. We are a family of 5 and it was very comfortable. The owner Rob has everything we could have needed. The washer and dryer are a great bonus. Having beach toys was great for the kids. Our kids are 15, 4 and 7 and all fit nicely in the second bedroom. There is tons of closet space and two full bathrooms is a must when traveling with a family our size. Thank you Rob! We would definitely recommend this property! I jogged to the beach in the mornings but when we went as a family we drove as it would have been a bit much with kids coolers and toys. There is a beautiful beach right down the street and they have a shuttle that will take you from the parking lot to the beach! Wonderful stay!!

Fun getaway!
My husband and I had a great experience at 22 Corniche. The property is well maintained, and the unit was super clean and comfortable. Such a pleasure to stay. I don’t think that we can add any more to the accolades by previous guests. Thanks, Rob!

Ritz Pointe condo
We loved the location to the beach and Monarch Bay Resort. Dana Pt is beautiful..The condo had lots of pluses, but the cons were dirty windows, noise, and lack of light bulbs, but the big thing for us was that it was so dark. The patio didn't get any sun.

The property is beautiful! Renovated bathrooms and newer kitchen. Out of a magazine! Simple & clean
This was our first time visiting Dana point Laguna Beach area. We are a family of six coming from New Jersey. We had a fabulous time and enjoyed the property very much. The walk to the beach is a bit strenuous but we enjoyed the beautiful scenery. The property is beautifully decorated, seems brand new, and impeccably clean. Lots of supermarkets and restaurants close by. We had everything we needed for the beach. Could have used a few more chairs but other than that it was perfectly stocked. There were plenty of board games and video games for kids to enjoy. We will definitely be back.

Beautiful Condo with All Amenities
We were so pleased that the condo was very clean and beautifully renovated. Location was convenient to everything so we visited many beaches and areas. The extras were an added benefit: games, beach gear, bathroom/kitchen supplies and condiments. Rob responded immediately to my questions. Would definitely stay in this unit again.

About the host
Hosted by Rob Christianson
Like most families, work, kids, school and sports keep us very busy throughout the week. Our two young boys are active with many different sports and we found ourselves running from one practice to the next. We wanted to find a place where our family could go and get away from the daily grind of normal life to relax and unwind. When we found this condo, we found our paradise. It has allowed us to spend quality family time together doing activities we enjoy such as walking to the beach, cruising around on beach cruisers, hiking local trails and picnicking at Salt Creek Park while watching the sunset. We feel very lucky to have found this beach side gem. Every time we visit, we thoroughly enjoy our time and hope you do the same. Thank You for considering our "Seaside Escape" for your next vacation.
