Why San Clemente
Heart, soul,
and salt air.
Many travelers fall in love with San Clemente's quaint, small-town beach charm — the kind that's hard to find in the busier coastal cities nearby. A genuinely walkable town, where you stroll to local shops, family-owned restaurants, and the sand.
The beach & trail
An 8-minute walk to the Linda Lane beach access puts you two minutes from the pier and Fisherman's Restaurant, with a 4-mile beach trail heading south.
World-class surf
Renowned breaks within walking distance — T-Street, 204's, Riviera, Cottons — plus San Onofre and Trestles, home of the 2028 Olympic surfing contest, a short drive south.
Downtown Del Mar
A short stroll to boutiques, surf shops, coffee houses, antique stores, and the Sunday Farmer's Market in San Clemente's walkable, small-town downtown.
Day trips everywhere
Halfway between LA and San Diego. Hop the Surfliner from the pier, or drive to Dana Point Harbor, Laguna Beach, and Catalina Island.
Reviews
What guests say
“Genuine local hosts who clearly love this town. The recommendations were perfect and the ocean breeze through the unit every afternoon was magic.”

Anniversary · Denver, CO
“Walked to T-Street every morning with the boards they provide. The place is bright and comfortable, and you can't beat being able to leave the car parked the whole trip.”

Surf trip · Scottsdale, AZ
“Spotless, stylish, and a two-minute walk to the sand. The fireplace and that Mediterranean kitchen made it feel like a boutique hotel. We're already planning our next stay.”
James & Priya
Couples trip · San Francisco, CA
“The deck views were unreal — coffee at sunrise, wine at sunset, ocean the whole time. We walked to the pier every morning. Doug and Sheryl thought of everything, right down to the beach chairs.”
