Great place to stay in San Clemente

We had a wonderful stay at Talia's Seaside Retreat mid - end of January. The place was extremely clean and exceptionally decorated. Comfortable furniture and kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. Sara and Sahl were very nice and quick to respond to any of our questions. It is a great place to stay in San Clemente.

A month was not enough!

A perfectly appointed, private sanctuary in a residential neighborhood. With high-end finishes in both the kitchen and bath, sophisticated decor and furnishings, we hosted dinners for local family, relaxed in privacy and truly embraced the San Clemente lifestyle

Amazing anniversary getaway

This is a perfect hidden gem. The pictures do not do it justice. The owners have gone above and beyond to make this a perfect getaway. It is just around the corner from all of our favorite shops and restaurants. Nice ocean views. Sophisticated modern touches. A short stroll to the ocean

Our favorite spot to stay when in SC. Breakfast at Cafe Rae, rentals at the bike shop, and the beach stairs are all walking distance. The attention to detail that the owners put into their home is beautiful. The space is perfect for us: the interior design is exquisite coastal luxury, my husband loves the rainfall shower head, the ocean views from the top deck are stunning, beds are comfy, ac is cold (if you need it), essentials are provided along with other little things we didn’t even know we needed till we saw them, and the owners are pleasant & helpful. Thank you Saul & Sara for opening your home to us once again. It made for another memorable trip!

Clean & comfortable in beautiful San Clemente

We wanted a comfortable place near the ocean that would be convenient for 2 of our kids to visit (from San Diego and Loma Linda). This exceeded our expectations. The apartment is very well laid out to make maximum use of its size, and is very attractively decorated. Sara & Sahl provided everything we needed. We loved San Clemente, a new spot for us.

A wonderful small place full of light, beautifully designed, and comfortable

We were very positively impressed by this small but extremely comfortable and beautifully designed apartment full of light, with 2 bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen offering everything one needs, a very comfortable living room, and a small but sunny balcony with enough space to sit down for a meal, or to relax and read a book in the sunshine. And it is just a short walk away from the beach. We loved it and wish to come back!

10 stars!

This is a beautiful, thoughtfully designed property in a perfect location - Just minutes from the beach, shops and restaurants, and a glance away from a star-filled sky. Sara and Sahl are lovely hosts and I felt like I was in a boutique hotel retreat for my three week stay. I agree with other reviews that it’s even better in person than the already great photos.
