Just spent an evening at the Capistrano Surfside Inn and have nothing but compliments! Although our unit was not oceanfront, we enjoyed the quietness of being in the back of the resort. The rooms have been upgraded and have a great local beach vibe! The staff is courteous and always does what they can to ensure a great stay for... More

We were at the Surfside in this past week. We timeshare swapped into a 2 bedroom 1 bath unit. Full kitchen (small) plus living room, dining area. Even a view of the beach. There is an walkway overpass to the beach (it goes over the Pacific Coast Highway and the Amtrak trainline). The rooms were pretty comfortable although a bit... More

What a nice place! Check in and out was easy. Full kitchens and each unit has a BBQ. We had a great view off the deck of the ocean and a,axing sunsets, get an ocean view room. There are bicycles that you may borrow and go on nice bike rides along the boardwalk or to Dana Point Harbor.

Thanks for the kind words! And we love your advise to others to call ahead for an ocean-view room! We are a timeshare property so our owners can call 3 months in advance for their room assignment. Our exchange guests can call 1 month in advance. And renters will know at the time of booking what kind of view they... More

This resort is older, but is clean, in a fabulous location, and the staff is absolutely wonderful. I went with a family member who is a head injury survivor, and has some difficulty understanding complex ideas. The staff were kind, gracious, patient, and really sweet. This made my vacation so enjoyable, and if they read this, THANK YOU AGAIN!

We stayed the 1st week of July, 2012. Our 1 bedroom overlooked the ocean, we watched the 4th of July fireworks from our balcony. The furniture was very comfortable, and clean. The rooms were nicely decorated. We cooked, using the BBQ and other appliances furnished for a terrific home cooked meal. We had two flat screen TV's, making the grandson... More

Everything was average. There weren't any problems and we had a good time. Definitely go to the Monday morning meeting for some good info about area attractions. We ended up getting 2 for 1 whale watching the same day. Take out the free bikes to get a look at the beach and harbor nearby. The beach directly in front of... More

I am an original owner(since1980's). I own the largest plan, 2BR 2BA End unit. A little known secret is that the 2BR 2BA end units on the San Clemente side are larger & more quiet than the units facing the mexican restaurant. Both bedrooms are HUGE, as is the spa tub in master BR. Large balcony off LR & MBR... More

Great service from Agustina and her staff!! A typical hotel does not have a full kitchen with all the hardware that's required to create a meal. You even get a grill in your patio, with the outdoor table in order to enjoy that sea breeze. Which is a great money saver when your on a tight budget that does not... More
