Such a beautiful and charming home so very close to the beach and darling town. House was meticulously kept, and offered luxury both inside and out. Had a wonderful vacation. Owners were incredibly responsive, helpful and friendly. Couldn't say enough nice things about it.

Fabulous location and neighborhood. Great communication and superior house rental. Well stocked kitchen with outdoor grilling. Used the Rooftop everyday and easy to walk to the beach and explore. Even a waterfront restaurant within walking distance. Owners gave excellent ideas for things to do and restaurants to visit. Great suggestions for grocery stores. We will definitely be back. EXCELLENT RENTAL. Enjoyed a week with our son--hiked, went to San Diego and Los Angeles, enjoyed the beach, exercised, shopped in San Clemente, discovered many local restaurants. Great vacation!!

What a beautiful beach home! The owners did not leave out one detail in their upgrades/remodel. Excellent views and short walk to the beach. What a cute neighborhood and very nice neighbors. Owners were nice and responsive.

Great vacation house. A nice walk to the beach. Everything you need for an easy vacation!

We had an amazing time! The house is even better than it shows on the online listing. Impeccable! Brent and Celeste thought of every detail and amenity for a perfect stay! Perfect location! A short walk to the beach and pier, and a 7min drive to Trestles! I would definitely recommend this house! Can’t wait to go back!

We just returned from our week long stay at this “magical” house in San Clemente. The owners thought of everything to make our stay perfect! We walked to the beach and pier every day and spent a lot of time on the rooftop deck relaxing in the jacuzzi or just reading a book with the ocean as the backdrop. Our trip could not have been better. Thanks Celeste and Brent for sharing your home! We can’t wait to return next summer!

Beautiful home in our favorite SoCal town. Brent and Celeste are gracious hosts and their home has every amenity you could want for a perfect week in paradise.

You will not be sorry or regret booking your stay at this perfectly designed and elegant but warm and inviting home!

Thank you so much, Pillsbury's, for such a lovely home where we thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our family vacation! It's the perfect setting for a family getaway, near the beach and quaint San Clemente attractions, and yet the house itself is such a wonder that we enjoyed many good times at home. It was just as described - and better. Very clean, beautiful, felt like a 5-star resort. From the gorgeous backyard (two little sisters enjoyed the tire swing and grass and we all loved the gas fire pit, BBQ, and outdoor shower) to the beautiful living and dining rooms and kitchen (every detail thought of from coasters to comfortable seating to tasteful Pottery Barn style decor), we were beyond comfortable as a family of 7 - two couples, two young girls and a baby. The bedrooms were gorgeous and so comfortable and breezy. The view of the ocean from the master suite made for serene and lovely mornings and evenings. Loved the stunning tiled bathrooms. The rooftop left us speechless - a lovely hot tub and resort style seating with expansive view of the ocean from the east side were such a treat to enjoy every evening. Short easy walk to the beach through beautiful upscale neighborhoods. Truly made unforgettable family memories against the background of this pristine home. We all commented - this is our "dream" home. We recommend this with excitement. Thanks again!

A meticulous home with a gracious host; a winning formula!

We had the most amazing and relaxing family vacation at Brett and Celeste's home. The setting was perfect for family togetherness. We loved walking on the San Clemente and spending every day at the beach. It was especially nice that we could walk to the San Clemente Pier and downtown San Clemente - we only used our car for grocery shopping. The house was beyond beautiful and the neighbors and neighborhood very friendly. We hope we can come back next year for another family vacation with more surfing.

We had the most amazing experience staying at Brett and Celeste's lovely home...They were beyond welcoming and kind and went out of their way for us. We stayed a month and loved every second of it. This home is stunning and the neighborhood is just charming - We even made friends with all the neighbors. I can not recommend this family and this home enough. Beautiful home. Beautiful family....10+ star rating.

We particular liked that Brent and Celeste were very welcoming and friendly hosts. They showed us all around at the beginning and everything was prepared way over our expectation. We stayed for a week for work and leisure. Because we are working on a book and a video course we needed a nice place where we can shoot our videos. What we found was a place where we could relax and work at the same time. The owners even gave us their bikes and helped us out with a screwdriver which we needed for our working session on one day. We would definitely come back again and stay there, as the location and the house is the best we could imagine. Thx again Brent and Celeste.

This house is beautifully decorated, comfortable, and has every amenity we needed. The brownies, wine, and food basket were a special touch. It was a quick trek to the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in San Clemente and would love to return and stay here again.

Description was accurate and the photos accurately reflect the appearance and amenities. The walk to the beach was more like 15 minutes taking along beach equipment and kids. The property was clean and well maintained. the owner was great to work with. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone wanting to have a beach get away. We ate in mostly but would recommend Nick's and North of Nicks.

The Cape Cod Style Beach House is truly beautiful. As we are from Germany we did not quite know what to expect and were thoroughly astonished about the quality of everything! Having stayed in holiday homes in different countries in Europe we were surprised to have access to a private home that offered absolutely everything. We were presented lovely baskets with wine, fruit, coffee, chocolate, etc. as well as one in the bathroom containing everything from body cream to pain-killers. We were allowed to use the basic foodstuff in the refrigerator and pantry. This may be standard in the US but it was new to us! The whole house is immaculate and in the best condition you could ask for. The interiors, linen, towels and furniture are very tasteful. The kitchen is fully fitted and contains every equipment you might possibly need to prepare a meal. Things are very well organized by labels in the draws and cupboards. So it is easy to find everything in no time at all. The home entertainment system is state of the art. So it is helpful to have a genial wife or teenager with you to help you to take the first steps in operating it. In a day or two even I could manage. We received a very well structured information package about the house and people to contact in case we needed help via email well before we arrived. It contains the best restaurants, places to go, etc. in and around San Clemente .The package made it easier for us to plan ahead and to find our way around town. San Clemente is very beautiful and the house is located in a very good neighborhood. It is absolutely safe for youngsters to move about on their own going to the beach or to town. With the wide roads following the hilly terrain and the style of the buildings the place has got a European touch to it. Exceptional! Truly recommendable without a question!

We stayed here fort he month of June and this house is even better than described! We felt warmly welcomed from the very beginning and enjoyed a wonderful time. The place is located in a much-desired neighborhood with the beach within walking distance. The house is really well thought trough and nicely decorated. The kitchen is very spacious and extremely well equipped. Our toddler enjoyed the safe and nicely maintained backyard to spend her playtime using all the available toys whereas the adults were relaxing on the rooftop – sitting in the Jacuzzi and enjoying the superb view. We are not used renting vacation property especially if you are from outside oft he US, but we are more than happy with our decision. We would highly recommend this hidden gem - the owners were so nice and really helpful.

We enjoyed a wonderful August week in the Pillsbury’s beautiful beach home, and we couldn’t have asked for a nicer stay! The home is light and airy and beautifully decorated in an elegant coastal style that is also exceedingly comfortable. An indoor/outdoor feel is provided by the many double-hung windows which let in the cool ocean breezes. Grilling and eating outdoors on the patio was a pleasure, and the tire swing in the backyard was a bonus enjoyed by our grandkids!! Our three year old grand-daughter was also delighted by the assortment of princess dresses that she found upstairs! The kitchen is spacious and has every amenity for meal preparation. We loved eating around the big dining room table, and we enjoyed reading and relaxing in the comfy living room. We found this home to be a wonderful family gathering spot! While our son-in-law liked running the steep access to the beach nearby, when it came to spending family time on the beach, our 4 generations (from 15 months to 89 years) opted for the short drive to Calafia State Beach with its easy beach access, making it much easier to schlep all our stuff to the sand. It’s a very family friendly beach and great for boogie boarding and jumping waves. When we arrived back home, the outdoor shower at the side of the house made for easy clean up of sandy bodies — very practical after a day on the sand! Watching the spectacular sunsets from the comfort of the roof deck or while on walks around the beautiful neighborhood was delightful. We also found the neighbors to be very friendly, and the property manager, Cyndi, was available and helpful. The owners, Brent and Celeste, were very helpful in making our reservation and in sending us information about the home before we arrived. Thanks for sharing your home with us! You provided everything for a wonderful stay!

THIS HOME IS FABULOUS! We had the pleasure of staying a week in July and it was everything we had hoped for and so much more. The decor is stylish and inviting, all the beds, linens and furnishings are top quality and make for the most cozy & comfortable stay. The owners Brent & Celeste are beyond kind and helpful with the rental process and completely thoughtful with the delightful welcome gift baskets they have waiting for you upon arrival. Such a nice touch and makes you feel like... ahh our vacation has started, time to relax & enjoy. You will LOVE the upper deck with it's ocean view, wonderful outdoor furniture and jacuzzi hot tub!!! So awesome you won't be in a hurry to get to the beach, believe me. The walk to the beach access is close... through a lovely neighborhood and then down stairs & short but steep hill, it's a bit of a workout but feels good. We are so thankful to Brent & Celeste for making their spectacular home in beautiful San Clemente available for a Summer destination. This home is beyond 5 stars. If you're reading this review I highly recommend you book it!

We stayed for a week in July and we absolutely loved it! The home was beautiful, the gift baskets were welcoming, and our kids loved all the toys inside and out. We will definitely stay here again.

Our family has been renting vacation beach and mountain homes for many years and it's always a bit scary not knowing what the property will actually be like until you arrive in person. Of course this home looked beautiful in the VRBO photos but once we arrived it was actually better than portrayed! I am a bit of a germophobe and so the cleanliness of this home was much appreciated. The bedding was so comfortable and luxurious as were the bath linens. The kitchen was beyond "well equipped" and very user friendly. The local beach, Lost Winds, was a short walk and then a steep hike down which meant a steep hike up which gave us all an opportunity to burn off the delicious cookies that greeted us upon arrival (nice touch). I would highly recommend this jewel of a home! Lord willing, we will definitely be renting this home in the future.
