Top Cotton's Point Hotel Reviews

San Clemente Surf Inn

8/10 Good

"Value"

Charming gem near the beach with large backyard, cornhole, fast WiFi & grill

10/10 Excellent

"Easy access to interstate"

Trestles Wave House Condo A

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect place for a family getaway!"

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."

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.)"

Convenient dog-friendly condo with free WiFi - right up from the beach

10/10 Excellent

"This property was so much more than we expected. While I would absolutely say the listing was accurate, I don't think it did the property justice! We were so comfortable and perfectly located near all of our favorite spots (Trestles, Primos, etc). We also rent e-bikes so having access to a full garage for safekeeping was KEY -- this place just checks all those boxes. Well appointed, spacious, AND there is a ping pong table that made for HOURS of fun. Our stay this year was short this time (3 nights) but we are already looking forward to returning next year. And a special shout out to Jason who was CRAZY gracious and helpful when we arrived to check in."

Surfside Beach Escape

10/10 Excellent

"Enjoyable stay in a convenient location."

T's Trestles Shred Chalet

10/10 Excellent

"Convenient location and comfortable for our family of three adult/couples. Well appointed with a nice indoor outdoor living space. Host made sure to communicate with us to confirm everything was set upon our arrival. Will be staying here again when we visit family in San Clemente."
