Why You'll Love This Place

A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
  • This AAA Four Diamond luxury retreat sits atop iconic Dana Point, where it commands jaw-dropping views of the surrounding emerald-green parks, bustling marina, and the boundless blue water. The resort's fabulous amenities match its surroundings, boasting plush accommodations, an award-winning spa, and a dedicated team of wedding pros to help you bring your dream day to life.
  • Sweeping panoramas of the "California Riviera"—mountains, sea, and white sandy shores—are the highlight of each of three al fresco venues. Lush greenery surrounding the Del Mar Lawn creates a feeling of seclusion, the Vue Lawn treats guests to a colorful parade of yachts and sailboats, and the Laguna Brick's intimate patio captures glorious sunsets unfurling across the horizon. 
  • The expansive ballroom exudes an ambiance of sophisticated coastal elegance, thanks to modern pendant fixtures, a color palette that calls to mind the sea and sun-kissed sand, and an adjacent terrace gently kissed by the balmy breezes off the Pacific. Equally impressive is the award-winning catering that puts a new spin on California cuisine.
