    We've stayed at this B&B several times over the past 12 years. Unfortunately, this last stay will probably be our last. Nice people, fantastic rooms in a premium location, but the noise from the local party people disrupted each of the three nights we were there. Not sure how this can be solved - it would be very expensive to sound-proof the rooms. So, unless we decide to party into the wee hours ourselves, we probably won't be back. Too bad because its a wonderful place.

    Very satisfied!!! Didn't eat here. Service was great! However, when I asked to have come ice cubes, the front desk kept telling me they're coming, but they never came....


    Great place to get away in Orange County!

    The Dormyman's Inn has rooms that will take you out of OC and into another era with some of its Victorian era rooms while providing a beautiful place to walk outside and enjoy the beautiful beach front.

    I wanted to like Doryman's more, however, it is just too noisey with all the bars around the inn. If I were up for party'ing down near the pear and then staying here. It would be great. Some of the plumbing fixtures need to be cleaned of calcification. Breakfast was nice. Staff was very nice. Room was nice except for what I mentioned. The restaurant connected to the inn (21 Oceanfront) was amazing. Hotel would be 4 stars if they would soundproof a little better, and have better upkeep on little things like the in room bar faucet etc.


    A great night

    Great night. We stayed in room 7 and loved it. The 24hr donut shop kept us full and all the choices of eateries were awesome. Definitely recommend it if you can afford it.
