Great property! Clean, well equipped, comfortable! Great location and excellent view! Hosts were very communicative and responsive. No issues at all during our stay! We loved the beach equipment and toys, well equipped kitchen meant we didn’t eat out for every meal, and the dedicated parking was a nice perk!

We came for a relaxing long weekend and accomplished this mission! The condo is greatly located within walking distance to beach, coffee and restaurants. Beautiful ocean views from the balcony!The Hosts have soooooo many amenities on site from bikes to beach gear. The most I have ever seen in a VRBO. The hosts also have start ups like coffee, soap, toilet paper etc. It was a great stay! Felt very safe and loved the sound of the waves crashing after the beach went to sleep. I’d definitely come back.Photo is the view from balcony

Perfect cozy nights rest

Myself and family/friends were cycling from Santa Monica and stopped in San Clemente on our way to the Mexican border. What a perfect respite. Lovely decorations, comfy beds and soft bedding, plus the opportunity to do laundry made this stop a 5 star experience. In fact when I asked my traveling friends what was their favorite spot this condo in San Clemente took first place. Thanks for your warm hospitality, Cathy and Pete and for the delicious welcome bottle of wine !

What a gem we found in San Clemente!

My wife & I have travelled to the Laguna Beach area a few times in the past few years so we decided to bring our 18-y.o. son, a college freshman, for his Spring Break. Found this lovely condo in San Clemente by chance and I am so glad we did. The hosts were amazing, responsive to every inquiry & request and their home & hospitality were both lovely. Who knew that such a beautiful little beach town existed so close to another of our favorite CA beach towns. Walking distance to most anything you could want or need, but what else does one need but access to their beautiful beach... fun to watch the young surfers descend into the surf in the late afternoon and we were treated to two lovely sunsets. Definitely will stay again.

My husband and I had a fabulous time exploring the California Coast from San Diego to Huntington Beach. The condo was a central location and perfect for our plans. We loved being within walking distance of the the pier, walking trail and restaurants. The condo was beautiful and the hosts thought of every little detail to welcome guests and make the stay comfortable! The fantastic ocean view was a plus!
