Stunning Multimillion Dollar Oceanfront -interior by Artist

Renovated Modern Oceanfront Condo decorated by Artist

This 1,020 sq ft condo is a 5 Star property adjacent to The Strand, an exclusive new beachfront community in Dana Point. The large 200 foot patio and the great room both face the ocean with fabulous coastal views. This is the best that it gets! You can relax on the patio with a drink and WATCH THE WAVES and if you are lucky, you can see the dolphins playing in the surf. In the evening, you can watch the sunset over the ocean.

The pictures here represent ”Casa Moderna“ which has two bedrooms, one with a king bed and the other a queen . The unit has 1.5 baths. Our other unit in the same building VRBO 305471 has two full baths and two king beds. These two condos can be combined offering a family or friends 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. All have been recently renovated and are equipped with modern furniture and original art.
These downstairs units have large oceanfront patios facing North on one of the most beautiful coasts in the United States.

The patio doors lead into the great room with an open kitchen and dining room. This condo has two full baths and a washer and dryer Inside the unit. It is located on the ground floor and is also accessible from the garage which makes it easy to come into the unit (especially If you are carrying suitcases, groceries or shopping bags.). There are no stairs. The unit is handicap accessible and is completely furnished with everything you need for a fabulous vacation.

On thé large patio there is a large table and four chairs as well as two chaise lounges. The patio has a barbecue where you can prepare dinner or watch the sunset or, if you are lucky, see some dolphins or whales as they migrate.

The unit overlooks Strands Beach . We are just 1/4 mile south of the famed Ritz Carlton Hotel and Salt Creek Beach Park. We are located adjacent to the path to the beach on top of the bluff. Our view is fabulous. It is very quiet, peaceful and safe. It is truly one of the most unforgetable spots you will ever find. The condo is furnished impeccably and has everything you could need for a vacation. You may even think you are staying at the Ritz Carlton.

Please ASK ABOUT our other units and about any SPECIALS. This calender only reflects bookings when all units are filled and is not always accurate. Please email us and we can let you know which units are available and when other rental periods are available.

If you are interested in contemporary art please ask about the art as some of the art is for sale ( which allows you to bring home some of your memories from the beach at Dana Point). We are also able to offer special pricing as we have multiple units.

Excellent GEM of a vacation spot!

We loved our stay at Dana Strand! The view surpasses the Ritz Carlton—pictures don’t capture its beauty. Peaceful with crashing waves below, the two bedrooms suited me, my husband, and our teenage daughter perfectly. This beachfront gem was a lucky find! Jill was an exceptional, attentive host. 10/10, would stay again!

Failed expectations

The rental property is very old, need a lot of facelifting.The furnitures were old fashion but somewhat functional. There was no washer dryer ,we were offered to do laundry on the garage of the adjacent unit. The hot water in the shower gets cold when shower in the upper unit is being used by the owner cutting short the showering. The key to the front Sliding door does not work. The door of the master bedroom opens to the garage and cannot be locked from the outside, very insecure , if the garage door is opened by someone, gaining access to the whole unit.There were ants crawling . The view is great!!//

Such a beautiful piece of our California coast and ocean ! The homeowner has created a wonderful place for her guests. Very well decorated ...comfortable....clean and easy to access.We look forward to returning :) ...The only thing needing attention is the host's phone number listed on Vrbo....it isn't accurate with the host's actual phone number. Luckily the accurate phone number was available in the rental.

By far the best place I have stayed at!!! And I have stayed at many, many places. I could not have picked a better “home” to visit. Jill was an amazing host. She gave us privacy while at the same time was readily available for any needs we may have needed. The place is beautiful, had ALL the amenities you would ever need. And the view!!! Stunning!!

Perfect location

What a wonderful place with a view that is 2nd to none. The unit was very well appointed with everything we needed for cooking, laundry, and cleanup. Each bathroom was stocked with body wash, shampoo, conditioner, and skin lotion for use after a long day at the beach. Easy access to both the path to the beach as well as the entrance to the cultural trail (a must see that is an easy hike). The owner was always available and she made the the arrival/departure process seem almost as if we were family coming to visit. Both units are the same comfort level and cleanliness. If you are looking for a relaxing, quiet place with an unobstructed view of the Pacific, this is the place to book. We will definitely be back again.

Paradise

This property was absolutely perfect for our "sister retreat". It had the most gorgeous view in all of Dana Point. My sister and I loved sitting out on the balcony sipping our hot coffee early every morning and breathing in the fresh ocean air and watching the surfers and the dolphins. At night we could hear the waves which for us was very soothing. I was happy that the beds were super comfortable and we liked the fact that there was a large smart TV in each bedroom and in the livingroom too. The kitchen had everything we needed to stay in and cook our meals and there was also a gas grill out on the patio for cooking. Jill was an awesome host and such a talented artist with her artwork on display throughout the home. We definitely want to stay on this property again. We loved it!!! Thank you Jill!

Unforgettable Six Weeks

Everything was wonderful—the view of the ocean at all hours, hearing it at night, the sunsets—all better than imagined before the trip. This was a comfortable place to zen out for six weeks while we slowed life and escaped the winter in the Midwest. Eight-minute walk to Dana Point’s Main Street, coastal access like none other, and a better perch than the people who paid $20 MM on the hillside below. Ha! Jill was always accessible and very kind, accommodating. Thank you, Jill! We can’t wait to come back.

Breathtaking view, excellent walking paths and original art

This was my all time favorite VRBO places to stay because, unlike many oceanfront places, you can easily get out and walk along the cliff tops and down to the beach (steps), instead of having a great view but no where to go. This condo is on a hillside that is a small nature preserve, but you could conceivably walk to marina and restaurants. The house is wonderfully well. designed and equipped and comfortable. We spent family time on the deck with my son-in-law spotting whales and dolphins. Nice original art on the walls of the condo. Friendly communication with the owner. Great stay.

Amazing view and more...

What a lovely place to call home for 2 weeks. The home's layout worked well for my family. We were close to everything we love about Dana Point - the horse park in SJC, our favorite restaurants (Gianna, Coastal Kitchen, Maison, Bottega Angelina), and, of course, the beach. And when we didn't want to venture out, we had everything we needed - a well stocked kitchen, a grill, and a deck that offered a spectacular view of Strands Beach and the Pacific Ocean. The sunsets were simply amazing. Jill made the process of renting the home very easy from start to finish. She is communicative and responsive. We look forward to our next stay.
