We are repeat renters and have no plans to look elsewhere. This beautiful home is equipped with everything you need for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. From a well equipped kitchen to laundry, beach chairs and towels to name a few- the experienced host has thought of everything. This year the weather was exceptional and we spent many hours relaxing and dining on the patio. Shops, restaurants, breweries and the beach are a short walk (with sidewalks). The street itself is quiet you’d never know how close the popular areas are.

It is always a pleasure hosting Michele and her husband. They are repeat guests who consistently take wonderful care of the property and leave everything in immaculate condition. They go above and beyond—often handling laundry and keeping the space exceptionally tidy. During their recent stay, we needed to have HVAC service completed, and they were incredibly flexible and accommodating, which was greatly appreciated. Communication is always smooth, and they are respectful, responsible guests. We would welcome them back anytime and highly recommend them to other hosts.

Jean is now one of my top guests! She let me know when Nespresso pods were running low so I could drop ship more directly to the house. She went above and beyond to ensure all was running in tip top shape which I super appreciate being a long-distance owner. She was even so thoughtful as to let my housekeeper know when she departed so the housekeeper could get in and clean for the next guest who was coming in that same day. I would welcome Jean and her family as guests anytime!

Best beach house stay ever

My family stayed for a week-long beach vacation, and we couldn't have been more pleased. The location, cleanliness, and convenience of the house were superb. Lucy is by far the best vacation property manager we have ever worked with. She is very responsive and keeps her stylish, well-appointed house stocked with everything you need and more! I would give her six stars if I could!

Home away from home

My husband and I stayed almost 3 weeks with family joining us off and on. The home was immaculate and supplied with all the essentials-even extra pillows for fussy sleepers! There is parking for multiple cars and plenty of street parking as well. It is a well designed space indoor and out with ample room for family but cozy for 2 as well. It is an easy walk to downtown with shops and restaurants. The beach and walking trails are just at the end of the street. The host provided all necessary information and was responsive when I had questions. One of the best rentals we have had the pleasure to enjoy and hope to be back.

A Perfect Week!

This property is perfectly located - a short walk to town or beachfront. We could leave the car behind and easily get around town. Additionally, the owner Lucy is a very generous host and great communicator, Check-in and out process were seamless. The home offers every comfort, comfortable furniture and beds, Plenty of linens. All kitchen and bathroom products provided. Staying here is more like visiting a friend than renting a property. Everything about it made us feel welcomed. This property provides all the comforts we hope to find when traveling, but rarely see anymore. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it!!

Family Vacation

Our family stayed here in July for a yearly California vacation. We were a group of 2 parents and 3 grown children with their partners/friends and one enfant. The home was beautiful, clean and airy with lots of room for everyone to spread out. The Kitchen was very well stocked with everything you will ever need. The beds all had great sheets and plenty of towels in the bathrooms.. The communication with Lucy was exceptional. She was friendly and accommodating. We really appreciated having the huge clean garage to unload surfboards and bikes and skateboards. The homes sits in a wonderful location, just a short walk to main street shops and restaurants. The beach is just a pretty walk away. We would love to stay here again.

Great location at well stocked home

This home was perfect for our family! Great location that’s walkable to the downtown and the beach. (Pretty steep hill for the beach but we were able to do it Wilbur a problem- also parking at the bottom of the hill if needed). The communication was awesome and the home had lots of extra supplies that I have never gotten in any rental house. The outdoor patio is really nice with big table and bbq. I would definitely recommend this property and would love to go back.

Elana and her family were respectful guests who stayed at our home for a week-long family gathering. Communication was clear throughout their stay, and they left the property in good condition. On the final day, they requested a late checkout due to a medical issue involving a family member. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to accommodate the request since another guest was scheduled to arrive later that day, but they were understanding. It’s clear they cared deeply about making the trip special for their father, and we hope everything turned out okay. We’d be happy to host them again in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Lucy Bridges 949-533-0101

Host profile image
Lot was purchased in December 1998, finished construction in March of 2000. An architect friend did the design/build on the house which resulted in a lot of unique design features. House has an open floor plan with a large eat-in booth area as well as seating at granite kitchen counter-top all looking out to the Great Room. Main level bedroom and full bathroom as well as three more bedrooms upstairs with two full bathrooms and jetted hot tub in the master. Two fireplaces one in Great Room and another in the Master bedroom.

Why they chose this property

This property is conveniently located to the downtown as well as the beach and Pier Bowl area. Once you arrive you can pretty much park the car and walk everywhere. Also, this house is walking distance from the SC Train station. Check the schedule though because train stops at North Beach (1/4 mile from house) more than it stops at the San Clemente Pier. City has a lot of festivities in the downtown area and beach area so there is usually something going on and there is some great shopping of all kinds on Avenida Del Mar, Antiques, Shoe Stores, Nail and Hair Salons, great craft coffee locations, unique clothing stores, 31 flavors ice cream and a nice yogurt shop, specialty candy shops on Del Mar and down by the pier, all kinds of restaurants, Nicks is very good but you will need a reservations, specialty wine shops with entertainment. Great Mexican food all over. Too many cool things to mention. House has beach towels, beach chairs, and boogie boards. Surf board and bicycle rentals are available by the pier and North Beach.

What makes this property unique

This property is convenient to all the tourist attractions in Southern California and access to beautiful beaches up and down the coast.
