The property was in a great location. Very comfortable beds! The patio was amazing. We had cold weather so we’re not able to use it as much as we would have liked. I will stay here again!
Nice neighborhood. Approximately a block from North beach easy walk. Several eating establishments within walking distance. House was clean. Beds are comfortable. Furniture in living room has a lot of wear. The dryer to dry clothes did not heat up.
We loved the layout of the rental, loved having two bathrooms, loved the balcony, loved that there was designated parking, loved the location, loved that there were plenty of towels, loved the COMFORTABLE beds, loved the extra bed in the loft. If we're ever in San Clemente again, we hope to stay here!As mentioned in some other reviews, the dryer didn't heat and the tv wouldn't stream. If you need a DELICIOUS Italian meal, go to Sonny's. If you want some delicious fish tacos go to Sancho's Tacos. If you're at the rental on a weekend you can take the San Clemente Trolley to the Pier or up to Historic Sand Clemente.

Plumbing Problems Galore
The location of the condo was great. Located in North Beach just steps from the sand, 7-11 and other restaurants to enjoy, and close to the San Clamente Trail. The place was also cleaned to our satisfaction.
However, the decore and furniture was old. The master bedroom had a bed that was extremely crickety so every time you moved or rolled over you could hear it from the room next door and in the loft area. So no privacy for mom and dad without kids being scar'd for life.
What I was most frustrating and upset about was the units plumbing. We had multiple clogged toilets downstairs and the shower downstairs that all the kids used would not drain. I called it in, they came out a few hours later to check it and they said they fixed the issue and it drains but just slowly. When we came home and got the message and checked the progress, no change was made. Nothing was fixed and it still drained at a glacial place. Its dangerous because if i kid doesnt speak up, it can flood the bathroom and 1st floor.
The fact we got bruched off by property management team and nobody cared about our comfort of stay was shocking. If you stay at this property perpare yourselves for terrible plumbing and possibility your shower can overflow, and old crickety beds and furniture from the 80s that are uncomfortable and offer no privacy for anyone with kids. I was disappointed with this host and their overall "I dont care attitude" I got from them.
We really enjoyed our stay. It was clean, location was good and had everything we needed. Our only complaint was that we could hear the guests above us walking around.
This property was amazing. Communication was perfect as well. We stayed two nights with our large family (6 kiddos) and there was plenty of room as advertised. Thank you so much for a great stay!!
Perfect spot near wedding venue (Casino). Property was clean and beds super comfortable. Enjoyed the deck. Thank you.

Beautiful place
My family and I loved the all the amenities. Beach stuff in the basement worked out great. 3-4 min walk to the beach. The house was very spacious and comfortable. We would love to come back next year
This was located perfectly for our family. We love walking/hiking and the trail was a great way to get out and be near the beach. There was a cute French cafe right across the street for our coffee, and the beach access was just a few hundred yards away. Plus they had all the amenities we needed, including beach towels. Thanks!
Thoroughly pleased with our stay, plenty of room for the 5 of us. The location was great, short walk to the beach, outlets and restaurants. The kitchen was well stocked with anything you need for cooking in a well. Be aware that this is not a stand alone unit, you can hear people walking around above you, but didn't bother us as they were in bed early.

Can't wait to come again !
Plenty of room for our family of five which includes two teens and our 20 year old Marine. The place is clean, spacious and the owners have thought of everything. Plenty of kitchen supplies, towels and really comfortable beds. Spent lots of time on the outdoor patio. We especially enjoyed the short walk to the beach and the chairs in the garage came in handy.
The property was clean and had the necessary utilities. It was spacious and relaxing. The location was ideal walking distance to the beach and the trolley to get into town for free. Check in and out process was seamless. There was more beach toys and chairs than expected (boogie boards, chairs, umbrella, coolers, and a wagon). I would recommend this for any group or family!
Very nice and clean.. Property Manager Elise with Vacasa was very sweet. She knew it was my daughters birthday and had a nice gift, card, snack and balloons waiting when we arrived. It was very nice and made my daughter feel special. There was tons of beach supplies for us to use which made it nice. The closest beach is nice with many activities, and beautiful with fire pits, and only a 2-minute walk, but it is made up of bigger stones not sand. You need to go to the next beach for sand. We would definitely return. San Clemente is very nice.

Great place but don't stay until construction is done
Place was great until the next day we found out that there was construction of a new home next door. I called the property manager and she told me that it wasn't their problem. I asked her why I want informed about it and she retired the same thing! So for the entire stay we didn't have any peace during districting times and we couldn't enjoy the balcony given the noise and dirt coming over since they were digging right next door.
This is a duplex. Unit A is the first floor above garages, with another rental, unit B above. The left garage has wagons, sand toys, boogie boards, lots of beach chairs, and a beach umbrella for each rental. The kitchen has everything you need to cook. Furniture was all comfortable. The dual head shower was great. TVs included an extra HDMI cable to connect your own streaming box or game console. Our only complaint about the home: we could hear the upstairs neighbors a lot. Bedrooms are upstairs and right below the living room of upstairs unit, so we were kept up by late-night adults talking, and woken early by early morning toddlers running around. The listing mentions no street parking, but that's not true. It's just hard to find available street parking. A note to anyone looking to play in the sand and shallow waves - San Clemente is not for you. All the beaches we visited were a mix of sand and smooth gravel. Look to Oceanside or anywhere from Laguna Beach to Huntington Beach if you want smooth sand. Even if you bring water shoes, waves throw rocks at your ankles.
