Thank you very much for taking the time to discuss your recent experience. We appreciate the opportunity to make improvements to our resort.
My wife booked us a stay here for my birthday and it was so much fun. It feels like a beach rental with outdoor amenities for all ages, rather than the usual hotel/motel vibe. The restaurant and bar offered excellent service and food. Hats off to all hands on deck who gave us an awesome experience!

Great location and tons of activities. Water shutoff off 5 times in 10 days. Last day it was from 9am to 6pm. Waiting for a refund our last day.

Thank you so much for the high rating, Albino!
Old apartment complex converted. Carry bags upstairs outside and pay $25/night for your car to stay there too. unlike every other hotel I’ve stayed in SC which has no added fees for Parking whether published or not. While a/c operating at what displayed 61 the room was near 80 or hotter than outside. When asked about a/c, a service ticket was to be created and a fan was offered to help the reducing the heat in the room. Not a place I’d book another night. Parked in the he street a block away. So if you chose not to pay parking, be prepared to walk a football field or two. Haha guess the $25/night is the ransom owning all the surrounding property. Passola

We had stayed at the San Clemente Inn once before (in 2021) and were looking forward to visiting again. Although the property does have many nice activities on site (like mini-golf) and the guest room (a Deluxe Suite) was very spacious, it felt like maintenance isn't being taken seriously; many things seemed close to falling apart, and they even had to shut off the water to all the rooms at night. What drove me to write this review however is that we were charged $25 for parking. This would not be a problem if it were stated up-front; in fact there's plenty of parking on the street next to the hotel. We travel a lot, and I don't remember the last time a hotel failed to disclose that when we were checking in, before it was too late. Furthermore, when I called the manager, Andrew, about this issue, he coldly stated that the small print on the parking pass indicated the charge. I have to think that somebody who expects people on vacation to carefully read a contract should not be working in the hospitality industry. I would have liked to recommend the San Clemente Inn to other vacationers, but unfortunately this trip changed my mind.
