“Laguna Cliffs Marriott sits perched above Dana Point, providing ocean views and multiple pools; it strikes me as a particularly solid choice for both couples seeking a getaway and families wanting a relaxed vacation. The dining, particularly at Outer Reef, seems a highlight, and I appreciate the hotel's eco-friendly focus, making it a place where luxury aligns with responsible practices. I think that its location near both the beach and the harbor enhances its appeal.”
