Dana By The Sea condos rarely come on the market and offer some of the best ocean views found in Dana Point, California.   The town homes are located on the ocean view streets of Alta Vista and Granada Dr and near the Dana Hills High School.  There is a combination of two to three bedroom models in this community that range from 1,990 to $2,200 square feet.  All these units are located on multiple levels and often come with ocean view decks, vaulted ceilings with main entertainment spaces located downstairs and all the bedrooms located on the upper level.

The condos are lined up in a row and overlook the city lights and ocean below.  There is a nice community pool directly below the homes that also offers great views of the ocean.  For the most

The Grand Monarch is one of the newest neighborhoods coming to the Monarch Beach area of Dana Point.  The community will be located adjacent to the luxury 5 Star St Regis Hotel in Dana Point with a beautiful collection of 37 luxury town homes to be built later this summer.  The St Regis already has a community adjacent to the community called the "Sea Villas" which feature golf course and ocean view town homes that offer immediate access to all the St Regis hotel amenities.  The 37 homes will have a variety of 3 floor plans that range from 3,797 to 3,975 square feet of living space.

The homes have really great curb appeal and offer floor to ceiling windows

The Lantern Hill community is one of the few gated communities for condo living in Dana Point, California.  The community was first built in 1986 and offers condos located on the ground or upstairs level.  The community is located on one single street that is called "Lantern Hill Drive" that does a circular loop to the main street known as "Stonehill Drive."  This is a gated community with two gates off Stonehill Drive with one gate used for entrance only and the other gate used for existing the community.  

The condos are located on both side of Lantern Hill Drive with the interior condos facing the central community pool, spa and clubhouse area.  The grounds are very large and there is plenty of space to enjoy the great year around weather of
