It was a nice stay, just very noisy with our room near the stairs and all the walkways. Lots of noise with our room on that corner. Late arrivals, people by the pool, and going up and down the stairs at night. Really hard to sleep.

We had a great stay at The Dana. The property is beautiful and my kid loved riding her tricycle along the boardwalk. The pools were nicely heated, warm but not gross warm. The pools next to the restaurant has an 2.5 foot depth at one end so my little ones could stand and swim around. Great time.
