This is the third time my wife and I have stayed at the Swedishfish property, and it won't be the last! The accommodations are excellent, the location cannot be beat -- just a minute from the beach, oceanfront shops and the two best seafood restaurants in San Clemente -- an ocean view from the private, spacious balcony, a responsive and attentive host, and all the modern, updated comforts of home. The listing photos say it all -- it's the only place we'll stay when visiting San Clemente!

The View! The ease of checking in and literally everything about Swedish Fish was beyond expectations. The place was clean, well stocked with beach amenities and literally everything we needed.Shannon was not only the most communicative and understanding host we've ever had on VRBO, but she went above and beyond at every turn. She instantly responded to any request we had, and we even had the pleasure of meeting her. I would recommend her places 100 times out of 100 and will be back the next time that we are in San Clemente.

Perfect end of summer stay

We had an amazing experience at Swedishfish! The location, ease of communication, cleanliness and amenities were all top notch. We loved the quaint town and would return to this property in a heartbeat! Having easy parking, proximity to the beach and pier, and quick contact with the property manager took away any stress we had about visiting a new place. We were sad to leave!

Great place in an absolutely killer location for San Clemente, with an unexpectedly amazing ocean view. So close you can hear the waves! Shannon was the perfect blend of caring and available, yet fully invisible. No-brainer for a couple looking for a great spot on the beach.
