About this property
Condo w/ Spectacular Ocean View - Steps to San Clemente Pier, Beach & Downtown
Located half way between Los Angeles and San Diego, San Clemente, “The Spanish Village By The Sea”, is the ideal location to enjoy the world’s perfect climate. Our family has enjoyed the amazing views, coastal breezes and breathtaking sunsets from our resort location for over 30 years. Just a two minute walk from the San Clemente Pier and Beach will find you basking in the sun, wading in the waves or enjoying a cocktail and amazing appetizers at The Fisherman’s Restaurant & Bar. Whether you are coming to relax with your family and friends, romance, swim or surf you will find our ideal accommodations very close to the beach of your choice.
Second Floor:
Upstairs you will find our bright and spacious living area and it’s a fabulous place to chill. The views from the balcony of San Clemente, Dana Point Harbor and Catalina are some of the best in our beach town… definitely the jewel of our home-away-from-home! For you movie and sports enthusiasts… if you do decide to take your sites inward, we have two new comfy couches for lounging, Smart TV, Free WIFI, games and playing cards to satisfy your leisure time. If a dinner party is in order our beautiful and newly remodeled kitchen is complete and well appointed for your festivities.
First Floor:
Located just inside the front door of our duplex are the quiet and cozy bedrooms. The master suite sleeps two and has a remodeled bathroom with shower and walk-in closet. The glass slider opens up to a cool breeze and the enclosed downstairs patio. The middle bedroom comfortably sleeps two and opens to the patio as well. The “Bunk Room” sleeps three. There is also a second bathroom with shower and tub off the main hallway next to the closet with plenty of fresh beach towels.
Garage:
Our tandem garage holds two small sized cars securely as well as laundry facilities. There is also a large car space in the driveway. We have sand chairs and umbrellas available as well as a few surfboards, boogie boards and sand toys for the kiddos.
Attractions:
One can surf straight down the street to the right of the San Clemente Pier, to the left at T-Street, or take a quick road trip South to World Famous Trestles. If traveling to Trestles it’s a bit of a hike down to the sand, but manageable even for little ones. If long-boarding is your style then a visit to San Onofre State Beach is a must. With its slow and mellow style, volleyball courts, a few palapas and fire pits, San O is a great spot for a beach day camp.
Our quaint and historic downtown is within walking distance but you'll want to bring a pair of sneakers as there are a few hills to scale if you choose to walk. Our local favorite upscale restaurants, sushi bars, farmer’s market (on Sundays), as well as inexpensive but delicious taco huts are minutes away located on Avenida Del Mar and El Camino Real. Our newly remodeled kitchen with all the essentials is also the perfect place for home-cooked family meals. BBQ on the large upstairs balcony and patio and take in the serenity, sights and sounds of the Pacific.
No stay is complete without a visit to the lovely Casa Romantica cultural center. Perched on a bluff overlooking the San Clemente Pier, the magnificent Casa is a living demonstration of California history, culture and ecology. Other popular Orange County landmarks include Mission at San Juan Capistrano (8.5 miles) and Disneyland (37 miles).
We’re located close to both the I-5 freeway and Metrolink which makes exploring the Southern California Coast easy and fun!
Let us know when you are ready to start planning your beautiful Southern California vacation! You’ll make memories that last a lifetime in our ideal seaside escape. Many happy returns!

What an incredible week we had at this gorgeous property. It had absolutely everything, very clean and well organized. Excellent location and the view from the patio was amazing. We’ve been coming to San Clemente for over 20 years and this has been the best rental we have found so far, we will be back for sure.
What a fabulous place! We absolutely loved our San Clemente get away. It was the perfect place for my husband, me and our two adult kids. Plenty of room, and you can’t beat the view and the location. Shan was an amazing host, so easy to communicate with and was so helpful when I made a mistake when booking. We would definitely go back!

Your kind words absolutely made our day. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. Thank you for staying with us and treating the home so well. You were such great guests and we hope to welcome you back soon!
Great communication, excellent host, fantastic view and access to the beach, pier and shopping up town.Home is very well stocked with all the essentials and many extras. Toys, chairs, surf boards all available and in fantastic condition. AWESOME parking. We will definitely be back!!!
Great location. Posted pics online we accurate. Great communication with property manager. He let us know that morning that it was ready and we could check in at noon. You can easily park 2 cars, one in the garage and one in front of it. 3 min walk to the pier and beach. They also had beach towels and chairs.
We couldn’t have asked for a better spot on the beach. The condo was beautiful and fully stocked for fun at the beach. The walk to the beach was under 3 minutes. We loved San Clemente, it is an awesome beach town with tons of food options. The owner was very responsive and easy to communicate with. Thank you for sharing this wonderful piece of paradise with us.
We had a great stay at Shan's property. The communication before arrival was excellent. The property itself was just like the pictures. The views of the ocean were better than the pictures. The overall feel of the home is cozy and welcoming. We go to San Clemente 2-3 times a year and will search to see if this property is available going forward. We have always stayed at hotels nearby but the kitchen was great and the location cannot be beat.
This house is in a great location and offers picture-perfect panoramic sunset views from the balcony! My husband and I stayed a week in February and had a great time. The host was very communicative. The house is a short walk down to the beach and SC Pier as well as the train station, but miraculously almost no train noise carries up the hill to the house. The neighborhood is hilly and the house has a full set of stairs from the driveway to the lower (bedroom) level, and another set of stairs up to the main living/dining/kitchen level. Some decor is dated or needs a refresh. Also, the house technically sleeps 7, but given the amount of dining seating (better for 4-6) we think the house would feel tight with more than 4 adults or a small family with kids. Lots of wonderful eateries nearby!
This little beach house is a great little getaway. The location is perfect and it has all the amenities necessary. I grew up in San Clemente and I love coming back to visit..
Everything was perfect. The house is adorable, all needs are well thought out, hosts were quick to respond. Everything was labeled, explained and easy! 10/10 recommend.
Loved the location, can walk to beach and coffee, the two most important parts of a vacation! Comfortable beds, kitchen well stocked and lovely outdoor space to enjoy the view!
The host is fantastic! We loved the staying there. The place is amazing with the views and weather. Shan was a wonderful host and very accessible, accommodating, friendly! We would definitely stay there again if we go back to California!
