Walk to Beach! Beautiful Home with Ocean View and Jacuzzi!

Please read our 23 5-star reviews!

About a 5-10 minute walk to the beach!

This house is unique because it is an ocean view, newly built home between 2 surfing beaches just a short walk away. Once you are down at the beach, there is a wonderful beach trail great for walking, running and riding bikes. The house is also close to the downtown area with great shops and restaurants. Although this house is meticulously maintained, it is also very kid-friendly and would be good for multi-families.

Just completed is our 3rd story, panoramic ocean and sunset view deck!!! Enjoy our brand new Jacuzzi hot tub, situated on the deck, that seats 6 and has a lounger with a back and foot massage built in. Also on the deck is a double lounge chair great for reading a book and soaking in the sun.

The outside of the house has been beautifully landscaped with over 15 different varieties of David Austin roses and a white arbor welcoming you to your stay.

This is not a beach shack, this is a gorgeous 2400 sq. foot custom home that was just built in 2009 with Restoration Hardware style kitchen equipped with Viking appliances, soapstone counter tops, farmhouse sink and chilled, purified water faucet. The home has surround-sound speakers, rustic wood floors throughout and is decorated in a Pottery Barn/ Coastal Living Magazine style. Master bedroom has very comfortable king size bed, flat screen television, and cozy 2-sided fireplace that is also enjoyed while soaking in the vintage style pedestal tub. Second bedroom has pillow top queen size mattress and shares a lovely bath with 3rd bedroom. Charming 3rd bedroom has twin bunk beds with an additional twin trundle bed. Office is fully equipped with wireless internet access.

We want to take care of you! Upon arrival, you will be greeted with wine, appetizers, fresh fruit, and chocolate.

Included in Stay:
Bath towels, beach towels, luxurious bed linens, down pillows, robes, toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, soap, bubble bath, candles), hair dryer, coffee maker (with Starbucks coffee grounds), children’s toys, 2 boogie boards, and 1 surfboard. There is an outdoor shower to remove the sand from your feet before going in the house or to just enjoy an outdoor shower.

Available Upon Request:
Port-a-crib, strollers (single or double), daily maid service (for extra charge), and meal delivery service (for extra charge and must be arranged prior to stay).

We want you to build beautiful memories here. There is something for everyone. Sunbathe at the nearby beaches just a short walk away, surf or boogie board at some of the world renowned surf spots such at Trestles, T-Street and Salt Creek, go fishing off the local pier, soak your toes and search for crabs at Laguna Beach tide pools, indulge your appetite at some of the finest restaurants, play at nearby amusement parks such as Disneyland, Knots Berry Farm, Legoland, San Diego Zoo, and Sea World, and walk through beautiful gardens at the world renowned Descanso Gardens and Huntington Library.

Amazing Rental!

I can't say enough about this rental property. We booked a last minute vacation over Christmas and stayed in the home for several nights. It is furnished beautifully and was decorated for holidays which made it feel just like home. We received a wonderful gift basket upon our arrival as well. Communication with the homeowner was thorough and easy. And did I mention, the house is spotless! Beautiful, beautiful place!

Superb San Clemente Home!

Brent & Celeste are amazing hosts! They met us at check-in with a lovely welcome basket and showed us around their beautiful home. Every box is checked with this property. Fully stocked kitchen, comfortable beds & linens, beach chairs, plenty of different spots around the house to hang out. My family’s favorite is the rooftop hot tub, perfect spot to watch the sunset. We will definitely be back!

My new favorite town and VRBO!

Pictures don’t do the home justice. It is gorgeous, perfectly decorated, and has everything you could want/need. The homeowners were very responsive and thoughtful, even leaving a wonderful welcome package upon your arrival. They supplied everything needed for a perfect beach vacation and displayed a sincere desire to make your stay a wonderful one. Not sure if it was the home, the quaint little town, or a combination of both, but we now have a new favorite CA vacation location!

wonderful home

This is a beautiful home in a quiet neighborhood. It is a short walk to the beach. The house is top notch, nicely furnished. My kids loved the bunk beds and we all enjoyed the patio and backyard. Brent, the owner, was always available. I highly recommend this home. One of the best VRBO homes we have stayed in.

fABULOUS VACATION SPOT

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!!

Loved every minute at this beautiful home!

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!

Incredible, Beautiful, Immaculate and Welcoming 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!

Wonderful family vacation

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.

If this had a 10+ Star rating, it would get it.

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.

Wonderful house, nice people, highly recommended.

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.

Cape Cod Style Beach House was very accurate

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.

Beyond expectation!

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! These are the questions of the Review Tips and Guidelines and my answers: Was the listing description accurate regarding the location? 100% Did the listing photos accurately reflect the rental's appearance and amenities? 100% Was the property clean and well-maintained? 100% Was the owner helpful in answering your questions or concerns? YES, could not be better! Would you recommend this property to a friend or relative? Absolutely! What nearby activities, attractions and restaurants would you recommend?

Just perfect!

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.

Great stay!

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!

About the host

Hosted by Celeste Pillsbury

Host profile image
We are a family that has 3 kids. We have spent the last 10 years planning and deciding how we were going to build our dream home. It took 2 years to build and we absolutely love it. I am a high school teacher and my wife stays home with our kids. We hope you will be able to enjoy our creation as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We chose to live here because we love the beach. We love living in our little village by the sea. The climate is around 70 most of the year and the beaches are amazing in the summertime. We live in a vacation paradise and thought we could share it with others.

What makes this property unique

This property is located on a quite street with a 5-7 minute walk to the beach. There are 3-5 beaches that are close to the property with a beautiful pier that is just 20 minutes walking distance. Surfing and bogey boarding and swimming are all fun things to do during the summer. The pier is another great benefit of living close to the beach as it provides fun and entertainment throughout the summer in addition to a wonderful restaurant that serves great seafood (called the Fisherman's). San Clemente is also a wonderful place to bike and cruise around a beach town that has all the amenities that one could ask for.
