Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful time at the Mermaid Cottage by the Sea. My family and my husband and I were there for my stepson's wedding and the house was the perfect size for the seven of us! It was clean and beautifully decorated! It was within walking distance to the beach and was perfectly located from all if our weddings events. We even managed to fit in a couple of days in Disneyland! Only a 15-20 minute drive!! The management staff couldn't have been nicer and were great to work with! I left my phone at the house, and I live on the East Coast. I contacted the property manager, Jordan, and he was wonderful! He shipped my phone right back to me and I had it within a few days!! It was such a memorable trip!! The Mermaid Cottage by the Sea did not disappoint!!
Loved our stay here! We had plenty of room for our large family. Kids loved the backyard and garage ping pong. Great location for us for our trips to the beach, and visits to Disney and Legoland. Would recommend!!

Only negative was not super easy to walk to beach down steep long steps to beach. T street and San Clemente state beach still a super quick drive.
Worked perfectly for our family. Wonderful memories!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay at the Mermaid Cottage. It was clean and offered lots of room for us all to be comfortable. (3 bathrooms!) We started our week off with a very wet hurricane but luckily it didn't linger and we had sunny nice weather the rest of our stay. The house had lots of beach essentials and toys. We used them all. Our 2 year old granddaughter was happy to have some sand toys. Flying in from out of state, one can't bring chairs, umbrellas, beach towels, coolers, boogie boards etc. Yet all those really are 'necessary' for a beach vacation. Management was very easy to work with and I could recommend this house to others.
It was a lovely home. I enjoyed it and would return .
We loved the cozy yet spacious layout this home offered in the beachside community of San Clemente. Every room was immaculate and decorated with style. The location was excellent. We hope to visit again soon!

Although I never spent more than 30 minutes in the home, I was very impressed on the size, the upgrades, the cleanliness and the decor. My family was delighted with it inside and out. The backyard is wonderful too! The Sand and Surf contact I was working with, Jordan, went above and beyond to make the experience seamless and was great to work with.

A short walk to the beach (a 2 & 3 year old was able to make it), great neighborhood, great house, great backyard. We loved our stay and will go back! We had 5 adults and 5 young kids.
This place met all our expectations. Loved the Dutch door with sea breezes welcoming us to relax, breathe and put our feet up. Enjoyed ping pong and fire pit.
