Quick Trip report with some DPs

Diamond Member using FNCs:

Upgraded to room in 100 section with outdoor terrace and fireplace. Room was quite nice - new, clean and quiet.

Emailed ahead of time and the hotel generated a prepayment link that I used to burn an Aspire resort credit for someone else at checkout. Card was not in my name, FYI - but no issues.

Dinner at Bourbon Steak was great, but pricey. Charged it to room and was covered under the Aspire resort credit.

Spa was extremely pricey and kind of dead - even for Dana Point i think they've turned people off with the cost.

Parked for free up the road - bit of a pain to walk back and forth when using my rental, but a good excuse to get some steps in and save $70+ a night.

Overall a very nice experience, wouldn't hesitate to use some FNC's here in the future.
