“Great place but dated”
The resort is south of Laguna Beach, but convenient. About a 4 minute walk to Aliso Creek Beach, one of the area's nicest beaches. The resort is broken up into a series of about six joined units. We chose a one bedroom unit which was similar to a one bedroom condo. The units themselves were very well kept up by the housekeeping staff, but they are older and dated. We did not find any air conditioning, which would have been nice to dry out the dampness, but there were fans in the closets, and there was heat if you needed it. A golf coffee shop is on premises which serves light meals. Our unit had a full and fully furnished kitchen, a combo dining area/ living room with a full-sized pull-out sofa, a large master bedroom, and a great bathroom with a private vanity separated from the tub/shower/ toilet area.Great water pressure from the shower and plenty of towels. The king bed was very comfortable, the pillows hard. There was a fenced-in patio area outside the sliders for seating. They have enclosed parking and an onsite laundry. Albertson's is very close by, a golf course on premises, and you are only a few minutes from Dana Point. The resort itself is set back from the highway so you feel like you are in a very rural area. They have a very nice pool and hot tub, which can get noisy, and a surrounding green area. It is a great area for families with children because of the area. A great place if you want to be away from things, but I would like them to update the resort.
Area recommendations
Laguna to the north is great for walking, shopping, dining - some really great restaurants in all price ranges. Dana Point to the south is also nice to visit. You are not far driving distance from San Juan Capistrano to the south, very interesting. You are also not that far from Newport Beach to the north for great shopping.
