About this property

Ocean-View Balcony + BBQ | San Clemente | Calafia Cove

  • Some homes just get the assignment. Calafia Cove is built for slow mornings and salt-tinged afternoons — a light-filled coastal escape that hosts up to eight in easy California style. The layout drifts from a sun-drenched living room into a fully equipped kitchen and a sunny breakfast nook, and sliding doors open onto a private balcony framing ocean views. It's the kind of spot where coffee stretches into a long, lazy hour and the sunset becomes the evening's main event.

    Three bedrooms anchor the home. The primary suite keeps a king and a calm, retreat-like feel; a second king room gives another set of grown-ups their own quiet corner; and a flexible third bedroom holds two queens, ready for kids, friends traveling together, or anyone who likes a little room to spread out. Three full bathrooms keep mornings moving, and in-home laundry takes the sting out of sandy beach days. Back out on the balcony, extra seating and a BBQ grill set up golden-hour grilling with the Pacific as the backdrop.

    The location does a lot of the work. Calafia Cove sits in a quiet residential pocket of Southwest San Clemente, a short walk from Calafia Beach Park and the trailhead that drops down to the sand at Calafia State Beach — one of the prettiest stretches of coast in South Orange County, and a longtime favorite of surfers, sunset walkers, and tidepoolers. From there, the San Clemente Beach Trail runs 2.3 miles along the water, linking Calafia past T-Street Beach toward the landmark San Clemente Pier. When you're ready to swap flip-flops for something a touch more polished, downtown's Avenida Del Mar is a quick drive north, where boutique shops and local staples like Nick's, BeachFire Bar & Grill, and The Cellar make for easy evenings out. Surf, stroll, or simply settle in with the view — this is San Clemente at its most effortless.

    AvantStay provides an upscale experience with services that elevate your stay and save time so you can enjoy every moment. Guests have access to a 24/7 support team and a tech-enabled concierge to book services, such as fridge stocking, mid-stay cleanings, and private chefs. For anything you need (or never knew you needed), we’re at your service!

    Known as the "Spanish Village by the Sea," San Clemente is a sun-soaked paradise known for its stunning beaches and charming Spanish-inspired architecture. Catch some waves at Trestles, explore the historic pier, or stroll through the quaint downtown – there’s something for everyone in this coastal gem. Nestled along Southern California's picturesque coastline, San Clemente boasts mild weather year-round, making it the perfect destination for beach lovers, surfers, and those seeking a relaxed yet vibrant atmosphere.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Overall the stay was wonderful, the house was beautiful and comfortable and in a great location. I wish the description clearly disclosed that you need to go up two flights of stairs (one to go to the entrance of the unit, then one more up to the living area.) 2 bedrooms are on the lower level and one bedroom on living area level. The balconies were amazing and view of the ocean such a plus. We are lucky to have stayed when the weather was crisp (70 degrees) because there is no AC. Which is disclosed in the description, luckily there were ceiling fans in all bedrooms, but there were no additional fans which I was told there were. When I reached out about it, they delivered 4 fans within a couple of hours. The communication was great, kitchen was clean and beds were comfortable, shower pressure was awesome too! We traveled with our 6 month old and the main suite bedroom downstairs was perfect for us to put her pack n play in the huge walk in closet to be nice and dark for her to sleep, with a fan it was the perfect setup. Overall no complaints, it’s just not very accessible so if you have trouble going up stairs, or have a stroller like us, it was not very easy in that regard.
