The Volare, an Ascend Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Room every cleaning nice parking air conditioning is automatic no hand soap WiFi not that fast"

Oceana Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff is fantastic and very knowledgeable about the local area. For the rate, it’s a perfect stay and an easy walk to anywhere you’d want to be in San Clemente. Cool building that’s settled into itself and its foundations so there are a couple of areas where the ends of the room may slant a little but nothing bad. Will definitely stay again. P.S. Our unit had a small kitchen with a fridge and was perfect."
