Undersold the view!

Small and simple property without a lot of fancy frills and features but served my purpose during a particularly challenging time in my life. The view is spectacular and even the photos online don’t do it justice.

San Clemente

View is beautiful. The lock is very difficult to master. It needs replacing. I had to put new batteries into the remote control for the overhead fan since the heat is constantly running in the bedroom. Kids running upstairs and not enough outlets for devices in convenient places. Also, weak Wi-Fi so our Netflix was constantly interrupted to reboot.

Quiet Retreat

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Original plans were canceled and we needed a quick backup plan. My husband found Ocean Bluff Hideaway and booked it. We really had no idea what to expect but since it was last minute, we couldn’t be too choosy. And oh, btw, did I mention we had to bring our dog along. Getting to the unit, up the stairs, down and around seemed a bit odd at first but it was all worth it. We had a cozy, quiet, private condo with a nice view And sounds of the ocean. The kitchen had everything we needed and the bed and pillows were super comfy. My only comment is the lighting is not great. I like to read in bed and the bedside lights were not bright to find my book let alone read it. But, we had such a nice time whale watching in Dana Point, visiting San Juan Capistrano and the Nixon Library in Yorba Linda so I didn’t have much time to read anyway. We’re planning to return someday soon. FYI - we had a couple of self-imposed mishaps with the key and Kathryn was there to help us out both times.
