I had a wonderful stay at The Dana on Mission Bay! The location is unbeatable—right on the water and just minutes from SeaWorld and downtown San Diego. My room was clean, spacious, and had beautiful views of the bay. The pools were relaxing, and I loved being able to walk along the waterfront. Firefly Eatery & Bar was a highlight with great food and amazing views. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout my stay. I’d definitely recommend The Dana to anyone visiting San Diego for a mix of relaxation and convenience.
