No more loading the car with beach gear, and no more renting equipment and searching for a parking space, ‘cause you are at the beach! After a beach day, enjoy a cocktail on your deck, or soak in the hot tub on the patio. From here, it’s also an easy 10-minute walk to Fisherman’s restaurant in the pier bowl area, or to T-street beach, or to San Clemente’s quaint downtown for shopping and restaurants. World-class surfing at Trestles and San-O is a 10-minute drive south.

Accommodations
This 3 bedroom, 2 bath house is located in a tranquil neighborhood, perfect for sleep-ins and peaceful evenings. Make yourselves at home sunbathing on your private deck, or entertain friends and family while bbq-ing or jacuzzing on your secluded patio. It is the essence of San Clemente beach, with bamboo flooring, palm trees, ocean breezes, and a free-flowing, indoor-outdoor atmosphere. It invites you to lounge outdoors on the deck, or relax inside on the leather sofas while watching a movie on the high-definition flat screen TV with surround sound and fully-loaded on demand options. The open and fully equipped kitchen offers bar-style eating or sit-down dining, with a direct view of your friends on the deck, or of the flat screen inside if you choose. Enjoy the wireless internet throughout, as well as centralized heating. In the master bedroom, sleep tight on your king-sized bed with an attached bath, or wander to the hot tub with direct access from this bedroom.

Great house for family beach time
The house and neighborhood were fantastic! Simple walk to the beach for my wife and three kids (5,7,9). The neighborhood was nice and quiet with a grocery store and many restaurants nearby. If want to enjoy a chill time at a beautiful beach that’s never crowded and don’t mind a few stairs then this place will be perfect. About 5 minutes walk to the beach from the house. The house was nice and clean and had everything we needed for our 5 day stay. This was our second time staying here and we would definitely stay again

Plenty of space for our family
We were in Cali for our son's graduation from Marine Sniper School and it was the perfect location and size. San Clemente is such a nice area and close to Camp Pendleton. This is really close to the beach and the pier but be ready for a huge hill down to the beach. Loved the size of the house and all the aminities. Plenty of blankets, pillows and towels. Very nicely stocked kitchen. Hope to be able to come stay again when the weather is a little warmer. The host is a great communicator. Would not hesitate to book from him again. Thank you again.

Great place in a great beach town
This house is a gem! The outdoor patios are big and location is great - you can see the ocean from the front patio. San Clemente is a really cute town - and the path along the ocean is great for walking/running. There was an issue with the oven when we arrived but the landlord had someone there very quickly to remedy it. We will definitely be back.

Perfect beach house vibe
What a great beach house! The location is amazing and the home has the perfect beach house vibe - clean and bright, not too fussy, a decent kitchen for cooking and a close walk to the beach. We visited with four college-age kids who spent most of their time on the beach and in the water. Plenty of good options for eating out and shopping.

Wonderful!
This home is in a perfect location to San Clemente, Dana Point and Laguna Beach. Beds were comfortable and the home was spacious. We enjoyed the deck in the early morning with a hot cup of coffee. We also used the beach chairs and sand toys and were able to enjoy the blue skies & low 60 temps! We loved that they still use DISH instead of making you watch everything off an app! Thanks again, Bob, and we hope to visit again.

No Jacuzzi!!
We chose that place because it had a jacuzzi. 2 hours before arrival we're told the jacuzzi was down and a part needed to be ordered. (never fixed) Also, apparently the jacuzzi guy had turned off the breaker for the kitchen. We got to mop up the floor when we got home one evening. All of the food we brought had been sitting with no refrigeration. I asked for some money back and got a $100. not happy.

Beautiful property. Clean, comfortable and well appointed. Very short walk to thebeach and the San Clemente pier. A view of the ocean from the front deck. If you’re there on Sunday morning check out the farmers market in Old San Clemente, also a short walk. 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms worked out well for 3 couples. The host, Bob, was quick to respond to inquiries, friendly and professional.
