    Great location

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Without even requesting, got a room right near the pool entrance, made use of the pool that much more enjoyable. Food and room was amazing. Great experience.

    Great family vacation.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    It was a nice, clean, and well maintained place. The location was excellent… very close to mission beach but far enough away that it wasn’t loud . The restaurant on the property was excellent. We enjoyed the pool and the rest of the property as well as the ability to walk along the water. Definitely will stay there again.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Amanda at the front desk was exceptionally helpful. She went out of her way to solve a reservation problem for me. I would like to thank her again for making my stay at the Dana very enjoyable.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The bed was a little too soft for us, but overall we had a great stay at the hotel. Would definitely stay there again.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Close to Seaworld and kid friendly not for couples wanting alone time

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Having two pools with jacuzzis was perfect. Having heated pools, absolute bonus! Housekeeping was on point and even took care when handling my son’s stuffies. They even made him an octopus out of the towels and placed his stuffed turtle on top. Very cute touch. All staff that we encountered were friendly and helpful. We could even see Seaworld’s drone show at night from our room!

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Loved the location. The Hotel was very tropical feeling and I liked that!

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    All around, awesome customer service from all the staff.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Fantastic room. Junior suite with bay view. It was beautiful. Quiet. Just perfect. Daily housekeeping service. Deck with chairs to watch the boaters. Hotel food was fantastic. Drinks were strong. Pool is great. The Only meh was the shower sauces. Shampoo and body wash were the same thing just different bottles (trust me) Smelled awful - like an ashtray and a men’s 3in1 or dial soap. Just gross. And the shower head was awful. Barely spit out enough water for the rinse off. Also no Keurig in room.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026
