San Clemente’s “signature” palm-covered umbrellas line San Clemente State Beach (.2 miles away - walking distance), providing a sense of tropical serenity to your visit as you relax in the shade. Volleyball nets and fire-pits for roasting marshmallows add to this beach’s charm. Be sure to take a walk along the historic San Clemente Pier where you will see fishermen casting their nets and if lucky, you’ll spot some dolphins or whales. Grab some clam chowder while at the base of the pier or stop by Fisherman’s Restaurant. Great surfing at this beach is a given. Note: Dogs are not allowed on the beach or on the pier, but there are great walking trails for Fido all along the beach. (See San Clemente Coastal Trail - directions) While on the walking trail, keep your eyes open for hidden painted rocks, painted by local artists! You might also find these hidden gems in Downtown San Clemente (see directions), the quintessential California beach town! TRAIN STATIONS Amtrak Pacific Surfliner (walking distance) - take train to San Diego or LA Metro (about a mile) - take metro to nearby coastal towns SAN CLEMENTE COASTAL WALKING TRAIL Just head toward the pier (0.2 miles away) and there is a trail adjacent to the train tracks that extends 2.3 miles (about a mile in each direction from the pier) along the San Clemente Coast. This is a relatively flat trail and beautiful coastal views can be seen for the entirety of the walk making it one of our favorite San Clemente walking trails.

We stayed here when visiting our son at Camp Pendleton and it was perfect! I didn't realize the view would be as great as it was! Also was walking distance to the pier and beach and just a quick 5 minute drive to the shops and restaurants -super close to the outlets! The second bathroom came in really handy and the space was a great size! Great communication with the owner who made check in and out a breeze! Will come back! ##### Laura A.

It wasn’t very clean but I read the other reviews and knew this was the case going in… still for the price you can’t beat it. ##### Lauren M.

Property was very clean. Communication with managers was excellent. Unit is within a short walking distance to the San Clemente Pier and the Del Mar shopping district. In addition, San Clemente has a free city shuttle (by pier) that can take you to other areas in SC that are not within walking distance. Would definitely stay again. ##### kathleen p.

From the moment we walked in, right up until the very last evening the place was incredible. Best view in Orange County from a balcony and the neighborhood could not be beat for peacefulness while still being young and active. The short 30 second walk down to the beach made this place a REAL GEM! We would recommend this place to anyone looking for a long or short stay. The WIFI was AMAZING!!!!!!! Thanks again to the owners and thanks for the bottle of wine that was a real treat🙏 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 42 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carl S. 16 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect apartment and view Clear instructions were provided for our arrival. Happy to have a garage for parking, though there was street parking available in a very safe neighborhood. Upon entry, we were greatly impressed with the view of the beach and pier. The temperature was perfectly beachy and the windows allowed for view and breeze. We were able to catch a movie in the family room. The smart TV has lots of options, and one is available in each bedroom. The bed/bedding was comfortable and spacious. Shower felt wonderful. Kitchen well equipped with necessary tools. I would have used the crockpot and cookbook if I wasn't wanting to try local restaurants. Beach necessities (towels, chairs, umbrellas, mats, toys, and wagon) provided for use. The walk to the beach is easily less than 5 min down hill, where there is the pier, crepes, coffee, ice cream, and convenience store. We will gladly return to this property in the future. We loved our stay. ##### Carl S.
