Spanish-Style San Clemente Loft - King Bed, AC, Garage, Walk to North Beach | House in San Clemente
1 Bedroom House in San Clemente
Historic 1928 Artist Loft – Walk to Beach, Trail, Dining & More!
Step into vintage beach-town charm with this adorable, fully remodeled 1-bedroom loft, just a 3-minute stroll to North Beach in San Clemente. Perched above it all in one of the city's first historic homes, this licensed vacation rental blends Spanish-style character with modern comforts—perfect for couples, solo travelers, or a small family looking for a relaxed coastal getaway.
We've had long-term tenants and maintained our short term rental permit - reopening it for this summer :)
Why You'll Love It:
Unbeatable Location: Walk to the sand, beach trail, Ole Hanson Beach Club, train station, cafes, outlet mall, fitness studios, and more. No need to drive!
Professionally Decorated Loft: Cozy and unique, featuring original 1920s hardwood floors, hand-painted Spanish tiles, and custom furnishings throughout.
California King Bed + Sofa Bed: Sleeps 2–3 guests comfortably (2 adults + 1 small child).
Two Private Outdoor Spaces: Morning coffee on the back deck, wine and stargazing on the front patio with lounge seating and al fresco dining.
Fully Stocked Kitchen: Spanish-tiled with new appliances, dishwasher, microwave, and even a cappuccino maker. Just bring your groceries—spices and condiments are here for your use.
Smart TVs + AC: HDTVs in both living room and bedroom, plus rare-for-the-beach window AC units for your comfort.
Garage Parking (Shared): You’ll have priority access to the secure garage (fits midsize or smaller cars). Tenant stores a few items inside, but the space is functional and convenient—especially rare this close to the beach.
The Vibe:
This is a true "Little Village by the Sea" experience. North Beach has a relaxed, eclectic energy that blends residential charm with walkable access to everything you need—surf, sunsets, great food, and friendly locals. It’s less crowded than the Pier Bowl, but still just a scenic 15-minute stroll along the coastline away.
Whether you're looking for a sun-soaked escape, a work-from-beach week, or a romantic stay near the waves, this artist loft delivers serious comfort and style without the pretense.
Book your stay today and experience why San Clemente is the best-kept secret on the SoCal coast.

Bonus Perks You’ll Love
We’ve designed this space to feel like home—with some thoughtful upgrades you don’t always find in a beach rental. Here’s what guests tell us makes their stay extra special:
Air Conditioning
Rare at the beach—but so appreciated in warmer months. Both the living room and bedroom have window A/C units to keep you cool and comfy.
Fully Stocked Spanish-Tiled Kitchen
Skip the overpriced takeout. This kitchen has everything—from a coffee maker and blender to spices, oils, and full cookware. Dine in, dine out, or dine under the stars.
California King Bed + Quality Linens
No stiff hotel mattress here. Sink into a plush king bed with fresh, hotel-grade linens, a down comforter, and blackout Roman shades.
Smart TVs in Both Rooms
Wind down with your favorite shows. We offer a 42" HDTV in the living room and a second TV in the bedroom—with tons of streaming and cable options.
Two Private Outdoor Spaces
Your own little slice of paradise. Enjoy morning coffee on the back deck and sunset dinners under the chandelier on the front patio.
Priority Garage Parking
Super rare this close to the beach. You'll have priority access to our shared garage (ideal for midsize or smaller cars). Great for stashing bikes, boards, and beach gear too.
In-Unit Laundry
No shared laundry room or quarters needed. You’ll have your own washer/dryer setup—ideal for long stays or beach-heavy days.
Who This Place Is Perfect For
This isn’t your typical beach crash pad—and that’s the point. This loft is best suited for:
Couples looking for a romantic and relaxed escape
Solo travelers needing a creative recharge by the ocean
Snowbirds or long-weekenders who want sunshine without the scene
Remote workers seeking a calming work-from-beach spot (WiFi’s solid!)
Design lovers who appreciate architecture, history, and curated spaces
We don’t host parties, and this isn’t a rowdy Pier Bowl rental. If you’re looking for a laid-back, walk-everywhere beach stay with charm and character, welcome home.
