This week, on Friday field trip, I am sharing some of my gorgeous hotel views from my short stay at the Ritz-Carlton in Dana Point while on the West Coast! I was so very lucky to have the opportunity to stay at this awesome hotel for a work assignment.
Named after ‘east coaster’ Richard Henry Dana, Jr., author of the book Two Years before the Mast, Dana Point was the spot used by film producer Bruce Brown for the 1966 surfing documentary Endless Summer. (Music buffs may recognize the title as the same as the film’s theme song by The Sandals.)
I was up at 5:00 am for workouts during my stay at the Ritz, and local surfers were already dotting the shoreline and providing some great entertainment for those of us interested in being spectators while enjoying an amazing ocean view!
The views also made for wonderful al fresco dining!
The sprawling footprint of the hotel optimizes its expansive ocean views. Believe me, my photos do not do the view justice, but I hope you enjoyed seeing a little bit of the Ritz-Carlton Laguna Niguel – Southern Orange County at its finest!
Thanks for stopping by!
Have a wonderful weekend and remember to take pleasure in simple things, Jackie
