About this property

Oceanfront home, beach access & patio - STR15-0260

  • Welcome to your beachfront escape in Dana Point - a relaxed, ocean-facing home where the waves, the deck, and the coastal California pace set the tone from the moment you arrive.

    - Sleeps 6 | 3 bedrooms | 4 beds | 2 baths
    - Beachfront w/ direct ocean views & private patio
    - BBQ grill & outdoor furniture for seaside dining
    - Fully equipped kitchen, dining table & coffee maker
    - Beach essentials included
    - Wifi, Ethernet, dedicated workspace & washer/dryer

    The sound of the Pacific finds you before your alarm does - waves rolling in just beyond the glass, light shifting across the water as the morning settles in. This beachfront home on Dana Point`s Beach Road sits directly along the shoreline, with the ocean as your front yard and the unhurried rhythm of coastal California as your backdrop for the stay.


    Living space
    The lower unit of a duplex, this single-level home opens into a bright great room anchored by expansive ocean views. Comfortable seating and a TV give you a place to decompress after time on the water, and the open layout flows naturally toward the outdoor deck - so the line between inside and outside stays pleasantly blurred. Whether you`re settling in for a film or watching the afternoon light change across the surface of the sea, the atmosphere stays easy and unhurried.


    Sleeping arrangements
    The home sleeps up to 6 guests across three bedrooms. The primary suite offers a king-size bed, a TV, and a private full ensuite bath. The second bedroom has one queen bed with access to a shared full bath. The third bedroom is fitted with a bunk bed - one full and one single - also with access to the shared full bath. Bed linens, extra pillows, and blankets are all provided.


    Kitchen & dining
    The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to cook at home - refrigerator, freezer, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, blender, toaster, baking sheet, wine glasses, and a complete set of cookware and dishes. A dining table gives everyone a place to gather inside, while the BBQ grill and outdoor furniture on the deck make al fresco meals a natural choice with the ocean right there in front of you.


    Outdoor living
    The furnished private patio opens the stay up to everything the beachfront setting offers. Pull up a chair, start the grill, or simply sit with the sea air and the sound of the surf. Beach essentials - including towels, an umbrella, a beach blanket, and snorkeling gear - are available for time spent on the sand. The waterfront location puts walking, watching marine life, and exploring the shoreline right at your door.


    Bathroom
    Two full bathrooms serve the home - one ensuite off the primary bedroom, one shared between the remaining two rooms. Both are stocked with shampoo, conditioner, body soap, shower gel, hair dryer, and hot water. A bathtub is also available.


    Amenities & practical details
    Staying connected is straightforward with Wifi and an Ethernet connection, plus a dedicated workspace if you need to get something done. A washer and dryer are on hand for longer stays, and the home includes iron, hangers, and clothing storage. Heating, a ceiling fan, and portable fans keep things comfortable. A Pack `n play/travel crib is available for families traveling with a young child. Note: air conditioning is not available at this property.


    Safety
    The home includes a smoke alarm, carbon monoxide alarm, fire extinguisher, first aid kit, and exterior security cameras positioned outward around the property - one facing Beach Road/PCH, one toward each walkway, and one facing out toward the ocean.


    Neighborhood & location
    Set within a gated beachfront community on Beach Road, the home sits between Dana Point and San Clemente, with Laguna Beach and Newport Beach reachable by car. The area draws surfers, paddleboarders, cyclists, and boaters - and the coastline itself offers plenty of reason to stay close.

*** Great Beach Home ***

Our stay at this beach house in Dana Point was absolutely perfect! The location couldn’t have been better—just steps from the beach with stunning ocean views from every angle. The house was impeccably clean, spacious, and incredibly quiet, making it the perfect getaway. We loved how peaceful and relaxing the atmosphere was, and the ample space made it comfortable for everyone. Everything was well-maintained, and we truly felt at home. Without a doubt, we will be returning for our next stay. Highly recommend!

Beachfront Home with Waves and Sunset Views

We were there for our son’s wedding, great location. Beautiful view and clean home (only one thing I noted that needs to be addressed). Would come back. 4-Stars given due to the difficulty of entering guard gate (even after signing contract for 2-cars and family members names). This took time (2-days in) to take care of and finally got straightened out, but when you’re on vacation this is the last thing you should be worrying about (plus I had my Son’s wedding to tend to).

Phenomenal Beachfront Retreat!

We stayed here for a few nights for out anniversary and it very much met expectations. The 3 bedroom unit was spacious and the views - especially of the sunset - were as advertised. We enjoyed coffee in the morning and drinks at night while watching seals, dolphins, pelicans, right from the back door. Everything for check in was straightforward - the property could've been a little cleaner, but it was adequate and had absolutely everything needed. I will say that the high tide comes up close so sometimes there was no beach to walk on; but it was absolutely stellar when the tide was lower to walk along the beach from the back door. So if you are expecting kids to always get to play in the sand, this might not work out that way. Would definitely stay in this unique place in a great location again!

Beautiful Location

This was the perfect location for a staycation with out of town guests. Unit was accurate to the pictures. Small issue with the check in for the guard gate but it was resolved in a timely manner. The lock on one of the sliding doors did not work and management responded with a lock to secure the door. Beach chairs that were at the unit were not in very good shape so we brought our own. Would definitely book again for an easy staycation!

Amazing Ocean View

We loved the large common area with sliding glass doors that literally had you just a few feet away from the waves of the sea with a sandy area right outside of the home to park beach chairs, build endless amounts of sand castles and bury treasures. Bathroom situation wasn’t ideal for 8 people since one of the two bathrooms was in the master and did not have a door for privacy. Definitely the entire home could have been a lot cleaner. Regardless, the beach made it worth while, we had a GREAT time!

Great location/technical difficulties

We had a wonderful stay. The property was beautiful and having the ocean right out the back door was just what we wanted. It had everything we needed. The only issue we had was getting our guest through the gate. The guard gate did not have their info and it was almost impossible to get someone from property management to call them directly. Calling Vacasa, they gave me the run around. It was the guard who gave me a direct number to someone who ultimately got my guest in. All in all, we had an amazing stay and will definitely consider returning. We even had daily visits from a sea lion. So cute!

Great location and view, check in was a pain

The property was very nice, the view of the ocean is great. It was a challenge getting the right form to per-registar my car, I finally got it, after multiple emails and phone calls and filled it out only to learn at the guard gate to get in, they hadn't received it. I called the number and it took about 20 minutes to get it worked out, so not a huge deal but frustrating. The nice lounge chairs from the photo weren't on the deck. The deck furniture could use some updating as to be more clean and comfortable. The stairs down to the ocean were a nice add that we weren't expecting. The unit inside was clean and nice, but could use more towels, PT, TP and kitchen linens.

Private and family friendly beach house

This beach house provides everything you need to make your stay enjoyable. I really like the privacy of having an ocean front house with a private beach access. I love the open layout of the house and its modern style. Having a private sand area for my kids made our stay more enjoyable. And there were plenty of sand toys and beach chairs. The house was clean when we arrived, kitchen was fully stocked and lots of towels was provided. Although , the lounge chair that was advertised was not on the deck. It would have been nice to have at least one because the iron chairs were not comfortable. But I appreciate the folding beach chairs that we ended up using. We would definitely come back. What a great beach house to watch the sunset and fall asleep listening to the crashing waves. Thank you for the a great experience and great memories. The Ruvalcaba Family"
