Capri Laguna on the Beach - A Boutique Hotel, hotel in Dana Point

Located in Laguna Beach, California, just 1 mile from the Laguna Art Museum, this beachfront hotel offers a sparkling year-round pool and a sun terrace complete with loungers.

The hotel is located right in front of the ocean, with only the beach between my room and the water. It’s hard to imagine a better location anywhere in Laguna Beach. The room was spacious, very clean, and the only thing I could hear was the sound of the waves. Both the general manager and the staff, especially Morgan, went above and beyond to meet my every request. This is a hotel I highly recommend, and I will definitely return.

    We had a fantastic time here. Randy, at the front desk, really helped start our mini vacation out wonderfully. He exceeded our expectations in customer service, well done! The room was super clean and the pool had bar service which after a long week of working, a mai tai at the pool was all I wanted (and that mai tai was delish)! The location of this hotel is absolutely amazing!! Beach, boats, restaurants, shopping all a few steps away. We will be back and we’ll bring our kids next time.

    The hotel is located close to the cute lantern street downtown, close to the marina and only 6 minute from great beaches!!! It’s Clean and has everything you need and the price is right. They have complimentary breakfasts but are also right across the best French bakery ever called the Le saint Honore. Our room had the jet tub , this room was very spacious and great if you are staying multiple days. The shower pressure was amazing too!!!

    Excellent location, friendly staff, decent pool. Walkable distance to a range of restaurants and bars, and the marina area is very pleasant. Walkable to baby beach and the ocean Institute and a couple of local nature parks. Good value for money.

    Location was great! Was able to walk and drive for short distance. Breakfast could've been a better, but can't complain for a free breakfast. Staff was friendly, room was clean enough & convenient location to beach access.
