Nice place close to beach.

Overall a great spot and good for a family. Close to beach and nice ocean views from the 2nd floor deck. Clean and quiet. TV channel selection was pretty limited but that only mattered at night and was only a minor drawback.

Gem of a place!

We loved our stay at this beach house. We had the chance to meet Diane, the owner, upon our arrival, and she was a gracious host from the very beginning. The house is beautiful. clean, and well-maintained, with everything we needed. We loved the quick watch to the beach and access to the boogie boards, beach wagon, and beach chairs. This place is a gem and we can't wait to come back next year.

Nice rental near beach trail

Nice place, clean and comfortable. Good location. Only problem is it was listed as having 2 bathrooms, but only had one. Possibly by now the listing has been corrected.

Very relaxing spot!

We stayed at Diane's for three nights and had an extremely relaxing time. The upstairs unit gets a great cross breeze and lots of light. The grill outside made spectacular lunch and dinners. And finally, the garage was the perfect spot to store our surfboards. And did I mention, there is a ping pong table in the garage? Great times. Thanks Diane!

Great spot for families with kids

We had a great stay over our Spring Break! Diane's hospitality -with thoughtful food in the fridge, tons of beach accessories in the garage and close walking distance to the beach and pier- made this a convenient and low-maintenance beach vacation with our children ages 4, 8, and 10. The home was clean and well appointed with lots of extra beach towels, blankets, and cooking utensils. San Clemente has great restaurants and a well-stocked used bookstore for after your days in the sun. The only draw back to the town is its lacking of a dog beach for our pup. Thank you, Diane, for sharing your lovely home with us!

Our home in San Clemente

We just loved our Stay at this property.We stayed there for thirteen nights and I would have loved to stay longer.The location is perfect;very close to the beach and close to amenities like restaurant,markets etc. The house was very clean and in perfect conditions. We love to cook when we travel and the kitchen was perfect for us.Diane and her husband ,the owners, did everything possible to make us feel at home. San Clemente is a great place to stay in California. It has that small beach town atmosphere but is located next to many important Californian citys and attractions. Next time I travel to California I will definitely like to spend some more days in this property.

This was our third visit to San Clemente and the first in a rental property, this property is perfect in every way. Everything is supplied that you could possibly need. The host, Diane, is extremely helpful and responds to any queries quickly. The property is in easy walking distance to shops, restaurants and the beach making it a great base for stays in San Clemente as well as for trips to San Diego, LA, Anaheim, etc. Hopefully we'll be back here in the near future.

VRBO stay san clemente

We had a very nice stay. The house was very close to the beach and the property came equipt with tons of beach activities (body boards, surf boards, coolers, games, etc.). Also there are ping pong and fooseball tables in the garage, very fun!. The unit looked newly remodeled, kitchen and bathroom are very nice and modern! Our host Diane was very nice and checked in often! All in all, we'll definitely try to stay again when we return to the area!

We were at this lovely property for 2weeks while we had some remodeling on our house. The property was very clean and had all of the necessities. Diane was very responsive and checked in often. We enjoyed having the very short walk to the beach and being so close to town. We would definitely come back if the need would arise.

San Clemente gem

My wife and I recently stayed (August 3-10/24) in Dianne’s place at the upstairs property. Newly renovated the place was terrific. Bright, clean, close to the beach and town. All the beach amenities are included from towels to boards to wagons and toys if you have children. Diane was an excellent hostess with clear, concise communication. Highly recommend.

Great stay in SC

Host was exceptionally responsive, the condo was clean and close to the beach and Del Mar for restaurants and shops. I thought parking might be an issue but there was always street parking available either directly in front or one house away, plus the driveway. The only improvement would be a kitchen remodel…but that is being done now!

This is the second summer we've stayed here and hope to stay again in the future. It's close walking distance to the beach, restaurants and shops. The place is very clean and they updated the bathroom since our last visit. Our kids enjoyed playing ping pong and using the beach equipment. It's also nice to have a place to park in the driveway. Thanks for a great stay!
