Spanish-Style San Clemente Loft - King Bed, AC, Garage, Walk to North Beach
Historic 1928 Artist Loft – Walk to Beach, Trail, Dining & More!
Step into vintage beach-town charm with this adorable, fully remodeled 1-bedroom loft, just a 3-minute stroll to North Beach in San Clemente. Perched above it all in one of the city's first historic homes, this licensed vacation rental blends Spanish-style character with modern comforts—perfect for couples, solo travelers, or a small family looking for a relaxed coastal getaway.
We've had long-term tenants and maintained our short term rental permit - reopening it for this summer :)
Why You'll Love It:
Unbeatable Location: Walk to the sand, beach trail, Ole Hanson Beach Club, train station, cafes, outlet mall, fitness studios, and more. No need to drive!
Professionally Decorated Loft: Cozy and unique, featuring original 1920s hardwood floors, hand-painted Spanish tiles, and custom furnishings throughout.
California King Bed + Sofa Bed: Sleeps 2–3 guests comfortably (2 adults + 1 small child).
Two Private Outdoor Spaces: Morning coffee on the back deck, wine and stargazing on the front patio with lounge seating and al fresco dining.
Fully Stocked Kitchen: Spanish-tiled with new appliances, dishwasher, microwave, and even a cappuccino maker. Just bring your groceries—spices and condiments are here for your use.
Smart TVs + AC: HDTVs in both living room and bedroom, plus rare-for-the-beach window AC units for your comfort.
Garage Parking (Shared): You’ll have priority access to the secure garage (fits midsize or smaller cars). Tenant stores a few items inside, but the space is functional and convenient—especially rare this close to the beach.
The Vibe:
This is a true "Little Village by the Sea" experience. North Beach has a relaxed, eclectic energy that blends residential charm with walkable access to everything you need—surf, sunsets, great food, and friendly locals. It’s less crowded than the Pier Bowl, but still just a scenic 15-minute stroll along the coastline away.
Whether you're looking for a sun-soaked escape, a work-from-beach week, or a romantic stay near the waves, this artist loft delivers serious comfort and style without the pretense.
Book your stay today and experience why San Clemente is the best-kept secret on the SoCal coast.
What to Do Nearby – Walkable Favorites from the Loft
North Beach is where locals live and breathe the best of San Clemente—no car required. Everything you need is just a few blocks from your door, making this one of the most effortlessly chill spots on the SoCal coast.
North Beach & Beach Trail – 3 min walk
A family-friendly beach with:
Lifeguards, restrooms, outdoor showers
Snack shack, picnic tables, and swing set
Access to the San Clemente Beach Trail, a stunning coastal path that takes you all the way to the Pier
High Tide Coffee – Steps away
A hidden gem with beachy vibes and killer espresso. Grab your oat milk latte and stroll to the sand.
Super Bowl Express – Steps away
Quick, healthy eats with fresh acai bowls, wraps, smoothies, and more—great after a hike or beach session.
Moulin – 3 min walk
Chic French café offering croissants, espresso, and serious Paris-in-California energy. Go for brunch or a light lunch.
Local Wellness & Retail – 3–5 min walk
Nail salons, massage studios, and boutique fitness options
Skin care specialists and wellness centers
New and vintage shops, surf boutiques, and casual SoCal fashion
Outlets at San Clemente – 10 min walk or 2 min drive
An open-air shopping center with dining, movies, and sweeping ocean views. Perfect for retail therapy without the crowd.
San Clemente Pier – 15 min coastal walk
One of the most scenic walks in SoCal. Watch the sunset, grab dinner, or just soak in the view from the end of the pier.
Bonus Perks You’ll Love
We’ve designed this space to feel like home—with some thoughtful upgrades you don’t always find in a beach rental. Here’s what guests tell us makes their stay extra special:
Air Conditioning
Rare at the beach—but so appreciated in warmer months. Both the living room and bedroom have window A/C units to keep you cool and comfy.
Fully Stocked Spanish-Tiled Kitchen
Skip the overpriced takeout. This kitchen has everything—from a coffee maker and blender to spices, oils, and full cookware. Dine in, dine out, or dine under the stars.
California King Bed + Quality Linens
No stiff hotel mattress here. Sink into a plush king bed with fresh, hotel-grade linens, a down comforter, and blackout Roman shades.
Smart TVs in Both Rooms
Wind down with your favorite shows. We offer a 42" HDTV in the living room and a second TV in the bedroom—with tons of streaming and cable options.
Two Private Outdoor Spaces
Your own little slice of paradise. Enjoy morning coffee on the back deck and sunset dinners under the chandelier on the front patio.
Priority Garage Parking
Super rare this close to the beach. You'll have priority access to our shared garage (ideal for midsize or smaller cars). Great for stashing bikes, boards, and beach gear too.
In-Unit Laundry
No shared laundry room or quarters needed. You’ll have your own washer/dryer setup—ideal for long stays or beach-heavy days.
Who This Place Is Perfect For
This isn’t your typical beach crash pad—and that’s the point. This loft is best suited for:
Couples looking for a romantic and relaxed escape
Solo travelers needing a creative recharge by the ocean
Snowbirds or long-weekenders who want sunshine without the scene
Remote workers seeking a calming work-from-beach spot (WiFi’s solid!)
Design lovers who appreciate architecture, history, and curated spaces
We don’t host parties, and this isn’t a rowdy Pier Bowl rental. If you’re looking for a laid-back, walk-everywhere beach stay with charm and character, welcome home.

About the host
Hosted by Samantha

We have lived in Southern California for years and love the small town feel San Clemente's 'little village by the sea' offers. It's the perfect mix of friendly and down-to-earth. Everyone who is fortunate enough to visit, will find amazing restaurants, tiny outdoor cafes, shopping, hiking, beautiful scenery - everything you'd want on a vacation. Unlike other places along the coast, San Clemente has an actual downtown (Del Mar Ave.), as well as world renowned surf spots!! (I learned to surf right down the street!) Old and young love it here and share a bond of pride for this little piece of Paradise! The beauty and heartfelt friendliness make this the perfect vacation stay. Once you arrive you never want to leave!!
Why they chose this property
Bought this 1928 building because the moment I stepped foot inside, I immediately connected with the peaceful and happy energy that envelops this space. I learned the previous owners remodeled it and when they weren't living there, they started renting it on VRBO. It is one of the first homes built in the village and one of only a few legal VRBO places available to rent in San Clemente's North Beach. I love the idea of continuing the legacy that the prior owners created and sharing this cheerful and special place with travelers who want very nice, clean, and safe accommodations that feel like home.
What makes this property unique
The garden apartment is Modern and clean! It is very unique and peaceful. You feel very safe and sequestered inside it's walls....... Our location is really great being so close to the beach, public transportation, new restaurants, THE NEW BEACH TRAIL, the 1933 CASINO AND OLE HANSON WEDDING VENUE, Ole Hanson public pool, the new San Clemente Outlets, the trailhead walking stairs/ trails. If you chose to skip a car, you could walk pretty much everywhere... We love it's charm. And the fact that it has all brand furnishings and appliances. New and VERY VERY CLEAN!!! You may speak to owner in regards to amenities and pets.
