This Mediterranean-style property is located on a bluff overloading the Pacific Ocean. It offers a balcony, a fully equipped kitchen and free Wi-Fi in every spacious suite.

San Clemente Cove Resort features a hot tub and a sauna. Guests can enjoy the community barbecue area or use the laundry facilities. We loved our stay. The location is superb, right next to the beach. The resort is lovely - architecturally interesting and well designed. Our studio was spacious, very clean, and everything in it worked. And the balcony with the sea view was perfect. Also the hotel offers beach equipment - chairs, toys etc. at no charge. Plus, the parking in the hotel garage is a massive bonus.
