Beautiful property! If you expect to eat, good luck! I booked reservations through Yelp for brunch and that was a disaster. The bartender helped make it right..but then I ordered room service for dinner and waited a hour and half. When I called looking for my dinner the individual stated he forgot to ask my room number. A huge disappointment as it was Easter weekend and a major event for my family. A 50.00 credit doesn’t replace missing out on a brunch and horrible room service. Insulting after spending hundreds of dollars to get there and staying there.

I picked the Dana for its location and it was perfect for easy access to the highway to go north or south. We felt safe having our car in a gated lot. The view from our room was nice. The property has pretty gardens and two nice pools.
