Top Cotton's Point Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn & Suites San Clemente

8/10 Good

"The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The room wad very clean."

Hotel Avenida, San Clemente Beach

8/10 Good

"TV didn’t work and room was pretty spartan, but it was clean and for the money was good"

Comfort Suites San Clemente Beach

8/10 Good

"Na"

Travelodge by Wyndham San Clemente Beach

8/10 Good

"Strange shower setup! No privacy!"

San Clemente Beach House -Military/911/RN Discount

10/10 Excellent

"Many, many positives about staying there. Tahnee and Wes were great hosts, and responded quickly to every question. They were tremendously warm and eager to make our stay there a most pleasant one. The place itself was clean, extremely well-organized, esy to settle into, welcoming, and exactly as advertised. And everything worked! The location was a ten-minute or so ride from the heart of San Clemente, the shops and restaurants, the pier, and the most forgiving family beach (that is, with the best waves and sand for kids). At first it seemed further than we expected, but gradually 10 minutes seemed like nothing, and we began to like being away from the hubub. (If you're golfers, the location is perfect, as it's right on a course.) We were there with a 7 year-old and a 4 year-old, and at Tahnee's suggestion we rented a cart, and that essentially made their vacation. They could not get enough of the cart, and the ten minutes drive to town suddenly became a huge plus. I should add that anything really close to the beach would be much more expensive and crowded, and we really liked it. I think this is a great place to stay and recommend it very, very highly."

1 Mi to Beach! San Clemente Gem w/ Rooftop Patios

8/10 Good

"Location was ideal, house was great size for what we needed. The AC did not blow cool air so the house was very warm. There was som black mold in one of the showers. We tried communicating with the host and never heard back regarding the AC and we tried asking for a late checkout but didn’t hear back until after the checkout time."

Beautiful San Clemente Beach Condo, Walking to the Sand

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay in San Clemente! The unit was fantastic with one of the best locations in San Clemente!"

Trestles Wave House Condo B

10/10 Excellent

"Upon arrival there were a couple WiFi issues. We texted the owners and it was resolved very quickly. (Anyone can have issues, their response was resolved quickly, and to me that’s great service.)"

Trestles Wave House Condo A

10/10 Excellent

"This is an adorable place to stay in San Clemente near Trestles Beach. The place is clean and well appointed. Tons of gear is available for the beach. The communication is fantastic. Yes, it is close to the freeway but there is a huge wall between the place and the freeway, AND the windows and doors do a great job cutting the noise. My wife and I loved our stay here!!"
