Private Studio with Balcony and Easy Walk to Beach

Photo gallery for Private Studio with Balcony and Easy Walk to Beach

Casa Capistrano is perfectly located away from the chaos of the pier but a 2-min walk to everything :)
A comfortable living room with plenty of seating and a king-sized sofa Murphy Bed that converts to a "real bed with a premium mattress" in less than one minute. The bed is made up with premium bedding ready for sleep
Although this unit does not have an ocean view, you can still enjoy happy hour on your private balcony with great people watching :) The deck also has a gas grill.
Free bikes (fat and regular)! We provide everything you need to enjoy San Clemente at no charge: Bikes and helmets, Boogie Boards, Beach Chairs, Beach Towels, Umbrella, a wagon, a cooler, beach paddleball, and even yoga mats.
Here is a picture of the Murphy Bed up close in the closed position. Just remove the sofa back and seat and easily pull (very easy because of air shocks) on the handles and you are ready for bed :)

Adorable little studio with all you need.

Fantastic Stay!

We had the most amazing time in San Clemente. We felt like we were staying at a 5 star resort with Cathy’s attention to detail. She provides everything that you need and more such as fresh beach towels, an array of drinks in the fridge, and even a bottle of wine upon arrival. The room was incredibly clean as well. With a 30 second walk to the beach, coffee shops, and restaurants it was truly a relaxing getaway.

It is actually difficult to pick what’s best about this place, is it that you are less than a minute walk from the beach, or that it feels incredibly spacious yet warm and cozy inside, or the above-and-beyond amenities that Pete and Cathy have included? The only thing that would’ve made this place literal perfection was a view, but you can even have one if you are able to book their top floor.Please, if you stay here, take full advantage of those amenities, they have bikes, wetsuits, outdoor shower, a grill on the balcony, and more.Oh and while the place is pet friendly for the well behaved dog, do know that San Clemente doesn’t allow dogs on the beach at any time. However, the Laguna Beach beaches do and the drive is short, and you can pick up fresh fish at Dana Point on the drive back to throw on that balcony grill.
