Super Place to Stay!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/17/07
We stayed at the Marina Dunes Resort while taking a drive up the Pacific Coast Highway just a few weeks ago.
Since we took a week to take the drive, we stayed at 7 different hotels. This was one of our favorites.
The rooms are small but beautiful and adequite, there was a fireplace in the room, lovely decoration and a HUGE bathroon. Ours was right on the ocean and the walk on the beach was great!
They give you a golf cart to use to get around which is fun and kind of different.
The pool is HUGE! And so is the hot tub! The pool looks olympic sized and the hot tub is larger than most hotel pools. The water in both was great. We had the pool mostly to ourselves and WE ARE OLDER people, so I don't think too many young families stay here.
It might be that families don't stay because it IS very expensive.
There are not many places to eat in the area and we did not try the on grounds restaurant.
If you want the peaceful, serenity of nature, this is a wonderful place.
The help is VERY kind, accomodating, and pleasant.
My ONLY complaint was the pillows. They are feather and when you put your head on them, they are only about 1/16" thick. It is like not having a pillow.
I would abosolutely stay here again, unless I was on a tight budget. I loved this place.
