Home Away From Home!

All you need to know about this wonderful rental is that we seem to return every year! The location, in the Pier Bowl, is easily walkable to the pier and downtown. We especially enjoy the beautiful sunsets in a large, comfortable, well decorated living room. Beds are comfortable. Lorraine is a perfect host!

Vacation with our daughter

Amazing property and location!

My family loved everything about our stay here! From the ease of check-in and great communication w/ the owner to the beautiful view and location to the little things like having a toy bin and beach cart/chairs, the entire experience was very positive and made for a super relaxing vacation. We highly recommend this property and hope to stay here again some day!

Perfect Location

The neighborhood is quiet in the evenings and you are only two blocks from restaurants and the pier. During the summer months there is a wonderful trolley that will take you up to the outlets, and main town where there are many good restaurants and cute shops. The condo is very clean and the beds are comfortable. The only thing I would change is they need more silverware a frying pan and maybe a few more glasses for having guests. I enjoyed San Clemente it is a great beach town. We loved walking everyday on the beach. Great Stay!

Great place to stay near the pier

We had a well stocked kitchen, large living area, great location, especially loved the dutch door that allowed us to quietly step out into the deck without disturbing others. Usually spent our mornings and evenings on front balcony and put good use to all of the beach supplies in the garage.

Clean apartment, great location

We had a great 4-5 day stay (family with 2 children, 13 and 10). The place was very clean and had everything we needed. Easy walk to beach, shops and restaurants. My favorite feature was the view of the beach from the corner window, great place to drink coffee in the morning! The owner responded promptly to the one (minor) issue we had. Would recommend and would definitely stay here again.

Why they chose this property

I liked this building and area because it has a comfortable relaxing feel. Dress casual, feel comfortable, eat good food, view of the ocean. one minute walk to the pier and ocean. We went to visit the area and I immediately loved it. When we saw the building and what the area had to offer it felt like home but on vacation. When I am there I relax and unwind. Old town feel by the ocean.

What makes this property unique

The unit has an open floor plan, lots of window, 3 patios, view of the ocean from front patio, fully furnished, indoor private washer and dryer, personal barbeque on one of the patios, one car garage to store your surf boards, auto and one parking in front of the garage
