Hotel Services

The hotel amenities meet the requirements of the American with Disabilities Act. Accessible hotel features include accessible parking, an accessible public entrance, an accessible registration counter, accessible exercise facilities, and an accessible pool lift. The hotel also offers a wheelchair-accessible path of travel into the hotel entrance and an accessible check-in front desk counter. ADA rooms have TTY machines, lowered peepholes, grab bars and handrails, shower seats, and Braille signage.
“Dana Point Marina Inn's location beside the marina allows for pleasant walks, and several restaurants nearby, like RJ's Cafe and Chart House, add convenience, but some rooms might need extensive renovation. While the staff is attentive, reports of mold issues and thin walls suggest considering a higher floor for a quieter stay; the age of the property seems to show. A pragmatic choice for those prioritizing location over modern amenities.”
