A lovely spot just blocks to the ocean and San Clemente Pier. It had all the essentials. The bed was very comfortable and the host & staff were excellent. There is a lovely outdoor porch but no view… that was ok. Only street parking is available.
Property was very nice and in a beautiful area. Great location to walk to the beach. Parking was not included with the rental and was very hard to find in the area.
Very nice place. Clean, quiet and conveniently located. Will definitely look at booking for our next visit. We have family in town and property works well.
The unit was wonderful, in a great location, and very well taken care of, with dubbel pane windows, dubbel sinks in bathroom and very clean! BUT, parking was a great problem: no parking place for the unit and street parking was practically non existent.
Great location! So close to the beach. Parking is a challenge but doable.

Location
The location of the condo is terrific if you enjoy walking on the beach, into town. Overall a very nice place. Fyi no parking space for car. It all worked out, but the picture is misleading.
We loved the condo! It was clean and exactly like the pictures show. The patio/deck is very private and the bed is extremely comfortable. It's a very short walk to the beach and restaurants.
Beautiful place to stay.

The home had a fantastic location! It was easily within walking distance of great coffee, food, the beach and pier. If you have difficulty walking up hill than this might not be a good fit for you because it is up the hill from the beach. Having a washer and drying, double sinks in the bathroom and access to beach chairs & toys was a blessing. The home is well loved, but also well cared for. If you are looking for a quiet little beach town in California this is the place for you! Check out the San Clemente Trolley, West Toast Restaurant on the beach, downtown shops and the Farmer's market on Sunday--FUN!
This condo was a perfect little getaway for our family. Bed was comfortable. It was clean. The only recommendations would be to have some cooking spray (Pam/olive oil spray), better quality paper towels and toilet paper.

Jeff, thank you for the review of your stay. We are so glad you enjoyed the location. We apologize that the home was not cleaned to our standards for your arrival. We hope the refund we offered helped to compensate for the issue. We look forward to hosting you in the future. Thank you!
We had never been to San Clemente and needed a serious get away from the Phoenix heat. This place was just the right size for our family of 4. Even though it was small it felt big with the very private patio in the back BBC and then a bbq that we could easily use in the front. They had a lot of amenities for the beach which is VERY helpful. Having a wagon to lug all our beach equipment is very necessary and much appreciated because the hill is steep. The neighborhood is quiet and has a very European feel. Great shopping and unique restaurants on Via Del Mar. I do wish that the condo had more place settings and silverware we had to get paper products because they only had enough for two meals also would love one very large plastic or ceramic platter to put bbq food on etc...
Everything here was clean and well kept. The hot water faucet in the kitchen is difficult to get hot water from and we struggled with that some. They were quick to answer our need for supplies and the place was quiet. The only real problem, for anyone our age, is the no parking. Sometimes we had to walk farther than was comfortable for our age and conditions often up steep hill with grocery bags ugh. We survived and probably got stronger. But if you're fit, or trying to be, you will get good exercise. It was a very very pleasant week.

Bugs and no communication
If you’re looking for a friendly and helpful property owner this is not the one. We just wanted to know what kind of coffee machine, if any on the property and wondered if there was any possibility of checking in earlier. I emailed 3 times over 8 days, up until the day we left …crickets. Have never heard heard a peep to this day. Lots of roaches too. I do understand that this can be a problem near the water. Overall we were disappointed.

Our homes are treated quarterly for pests, and our property manager has assured us that they are taking preventative measures to combat the entrance of unwanted critters. We truly hope we can host you for a more comfortable stay in the future, thank you.
This spot is the quintessential San Clemente apartment. It felt like home. Clean, comfortable and everything was very easy as far as Check in check out.
Well kept space with comfortable bed and adequate supply of very nice towels. Worked perfectly for us. We did not rent a car, but instead used to Uber and on days when the trolley was running, just used that to get from the pier to downtown or elsewhere, which works very nicely. It only runs on the weekends though, except in the summer the way it looks. Nice to have a washer and dryer. We would rent this space again.

A few bumps
Parking really is a pain...there is VERY limited street parking and they sweep the streets that even limits the parking more! The location is great, a steep block to the beach. Cleaning could be better (popcorn in and under the couch). Our heater wasn't working, but was fixed quickly. The unit provides the bare minimum, salt NO PEPPER, no coffee filters, spices, tissue..just empty shelves. You can hear the neighbors. VERY limited outside lighting at night which make it dangerous. Kitchen well stocked.
