About this house rental
Please always send me an email if you're interested in the casa as the availability and price are not always quoted accurately by the website.
Welcome to Casa Azul! If you're looking for a place with the best location and views in town this is it. We are just a 5 minute walk to Avenida del Mar which is San Clemente's eclectic "Main Street". Here you can find restaurants and shops of many kinds. We have a fantastic open air restaurant "NIcks", a delicious Thai restaurant "Mangut Thai" which has a beautiful dining room and fantastic food and for families with children the Baskin Robins ice cream shop is all the way up del Mar where it intersects with El Camino Real which is a great location for a nice family walk. Of course there are many other places to visit on del Mar so go walk and explore! This is the heart of San Clemente.
The casa has four gigantic 5' x 8' windows that look out the ocean white water waves and sunsets. The windows let in a lovely ocean breeze to keep us cool. We sit on the edge of a small canyon that has a great play ground and lot's of grass which adds a green relaxing feel to the casa. It's a wonderful spot for families. There are no homes behind us because of the canyon and park below. You can see Catalina Island most of the time. Just take our back steps as you head to the beach and the park. It takes only 2 minutes to reach the sand and beach trail. If you would like to explore the pier turn left on the trail and you'll see the pier which is just another couple minutes walk. The beach is sandy and the waves are gentle. We have a lifeguard station at the beach area at our canyon. We are also very close to Casa Romantic which was the founder of San Clemente's home. It is now managed by the historical society and is available for touring. It is perched above the pier in grand classic Spanish style architecture. We are a family owned and operated duplex. We have owned the casa since 1969. I have constantly been improving and up grading to make this casa a quiet, cool, relaxing place for all who visit. You will love it!

Casa Azul was a wonderful place that was made better by the kindness and generosity of the owner Victoria. We would highly recommend this rental property. The location was excellent and the unit was comfortable for our family of four. Thank you!

We enjoyed our stay, the property is dated and the kitchen supplies need a refresh. The location and proximity to the beach and town are awesome.
It all went south when we got home and received a rude message from the property owner. At the time of booking I accidentally listed only two people would be staying in the property, this was an accident the trip was always a family vacation. We had no intention of being untruthful. In addition after receiving the message went back into VBRO to see if addition guest ls changed the price - we have paid her the difference if it did, it was an accident.
The owner also didn’t like how we left the towels, there were no instructions so I left them in a pile.
The whole exchange was disappointing as we would have stayed there again.

We had a wonderful experience at this upstairs apartment with our two kids. The view was amazing. We loved going to the park and beach every day. The beds were comfortable. Victoria was so friendly and helpful. We can’t wait to come back.

My husband, teenage children and I stayed at this property over the Christmas holiday, and we absolutely loved our time there! Victoria, the property owner, was wonderful to work with during our entire stay and even proactively communicated with us a week prior to our trip (as a winter storm was approaching that threatened to delay our travel). We were thrilled to arrive at this wonderful property. We loved the town of San Clemente with all of its delightful shops and great restaurants, which were easily accessed with a short walk from the property. We stayed in the upper level of the duplex and the ocean views from the large windows and deck were amazing! There is a path behind the property that connects to a short walk down the hill to the beach that we walked multiple times during our stay. The cute downtown main street, pier and beach are all just a short walk from this property! We loved walking along the beach path as well. My husband and son were thrilled to be able to surf at this break and at other good surf breaks close by. The unit was clean, so comfortable and just as pictured on the listing. We took day trips to the surrounding beach towns and loved how much there was to do so close to this area. This was truly one of our favorite family vacations and we would be thrilled to return another time!

Wow this place is absolutely perfect. Views straight to the ocean and listen to the waves from the house. Private stairs down to the beach and right by the pier. Parking provided which is a blessing for downtown. If you’re reading this you’ve found the perfect place. We spent our honeymoon in paradise and can’t wait to be back! Pictures do not do this place justice.

Gorgeous view, perfect location!
We loved our stay here! The home is in the perfect location and has beautiful views! We were able to walk to the beach in about 5 minutes and downtown in less than 10. You definitely don't want to have to drive downtown because parking is hard to find. That makes this literally the PERFECT location! Victoria is very easy to work with and communication was great. We loved our time in this beautiful town!

Outstanding Choice
This property was a perfect choice for our 70-day stay. The casa was clean, comfortable, well equipped, and well laid out. Any issue that came up with the house (all very minor) was immediately addressed by the host who was always helpful, friendly, and responsive. As for the location, there could really be none better. The home is situated on a hill overlooking the park and the ocean. Any time spent in the house included admiring the view. We were regularly treated to sunset, moon sets, and views of Santa Catalina Island and San Clemente Island. Access to arguably the nicest beach in town was convenient and only a block away. The main shopping area in town, Avenida Del Mar was only about two blocks away with many restaurants and shop. The location was also very convent to many other attractions beyond San Clemente with just a short drive. I hope we are able to return to San Clemente and if we do, we are sure to see if this property is available for a return visit. Everything about the stay was outstanding.

Victoria is a great host! She reached out a couple of times to ensure we were comfortable and was easy to reach when I had a question. Her place had all we needed. The location is unparalleled, the views are amazing, and the sound of the crashing waves was mesmerizing. We hope to return next summer.

The place was exactly as described. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in this precious bungalow...the surrounding area/neighborhood is beautiful. The views are stunning and we loved every minute there and hated to leave. We walked to the beach several times during our stay, there are some little cafes right there and we stopped and got breakfast our first morning there...there is also a little store right along the beach with in walking distance. We book alot with vrbo and this place was one of our favorites. We own a cleaning business so I am very picky about cleanliness and I must say the place was up to par! Would love to stay again in the future, and I highly recommend! Thank you Victoria for sharing your beautiful bungalow!!!!

This place was amazing and perfect for my 2 teenage daughters and me. We were steps from the beach, and the bungalow was perfect. We had views of the ocean from the living room and master and we could hear the ocean all night long. The bungalow had everything we could ask for and was charming and comfortable. We loved walking into town every night and tried a different restaurant each night. It was pure bliss and we cannot wait to go back!

This house is right across the street from a playground and very close to the beach. There was a family staying downstairs who was very nice and quiet, and neighbors weren't too loud at night. The cottage was nice and clean with good amenities and big beautiful windows with ocean views. Our three year old loved the house and the cozy twin bed. No AC so it was a little warm during nap time but otherwise the windows with ocean breeze kept it nice and cool.

Was a great quiet place
Was great, but has another rental below. Not the place for people who want to be loud. Which we weren’t - and neither were the people below. So it worked out perfect. But if you want to party till midnight here and the person above or below doesn’t - it would be awful
Place is great

The location, the views, the vibes, the ability to walk everywhere and not drive. The park just below and walking to the pier. I cannot day enough about this place. The details of the place that Victoria has put in to this quaint place really was great for our family. We are coming back next year!
