Steps to the Beach | Hot Tub + Fire Pit | 257 Trailhead Trestles 2 by AvantStay
Welcome to 257 Trestles Trailhead 2 by AvantStay!
Tucked into the peaceful seaside enclave of San Clemente, Avenida Montalvo places you moments from the shore, keeping the best of coastal living at your fingertips. A short stroll brings you to Calafia State Beach and the dramatic oceanfront trails of San Clemente State Park, perfect for sunrise walks, surf sessions, or unwinding at the water’s edge. And when you’re ready for dining, shopping, or an evening out, the boutiques and restaurants along Avenida Del Mar are just a quick drive away—close enough for convenience, yet far enough to preserve the quiet, coastal-neighborhood feel.
Spread across three levels, this newly redesigned condo brings a polished, contemporary feel to every corner. The main living area is bright and welcoming, centered around a sleek fireplace and sliding doors that open to the greenery outside. The chef-ready kitchen features stainless steel appliances, crisp cabinetry, and plenty of counter space, while the dining area offers room for everyone to gather. A second living space downstairs adds extra comfort, complete with a queen sleeper sofa, a large TV, and a mini-fridge—perfect for movie nights or giving groups a bit more room to spread out. Outside, your private patio feels like its own little retreat, featuring a bubbling hot tub, an outdoor dining area with a grill, and a fire pit surrounded by lounge seating. Three serene bedrooms—including a king suite with an ensuite bath—plus an additional full and half bathroom make the home ideal for groups of up to eight. With in-unit laundry and two dedicated parking spots, every detail is designed for a relaxed, effortless coastal stay.

With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more.

The host was very responsive with one minor problem. Always so nice to have coffee in the house which they did and super nice body wash and shampoo was provided. The home was clean and as advertised.
