Location is a huge plus. Just a short walk from the beach and close to local restaurants. The pool area is nice too. The bathroom needs updates and the A/C could work better. It was a bit noisy at times. parking is tight.

Rooms are spacious and well-kept—our King Room with a balcony was great. Parking is tight, so get there early. Also, the hotel is near some nice local attractions, and the golf course is just a short drive away, which is a bonus for players. Breakfast options were decent, but the seating area felt cramped.

The room was spacious, but it felt dated. The bed was okay, and temperature control worked well. the curtains weren’t effective for privacy; a second layer would help. There was some sand in the carpet and a few stains on the sheets. The safe malfunctioned, causing annoyance. The cleanliness could use improvement, with noticeable dust in the hallways and stairs. The breakfast lady was friendly, but the breakfast itself was basic. It felt underwhelming considering the room price. the pool was fabulous and well-kept, making for a pleasant retreat.

Everything was spot-on.

I absolutely loved how this place is just a short 7-minute walk to the beautiful San Clemente State Beach and only 1.5 miles along the beach trail to the pier, making my evening strolls simply delightful as I soaked in the stunning sunsets; there are so many great restaurants nearby like The Shwack Cantina and Super Bowl Express all within a few steps, plus charming shops just a stone's throw away.

Breakfast was a highlight. Good variety, well-organized, and attentive staff. The room layout was appealing and spacious, with only one room beside us. The location allowed easy access to the beach and nearby activities, enhancing our stay. the television didn’t work, and furniture felt worn. The bed was too soft for my taste, and two gym machines were out of order. The front desk experience was disappointing. Rude interactions overshadowed an otherwise decent stay. Hot water issues plagued our visit, with blocked sinks compounding the frustration. The renovations promised have yet to materialize. This place has potential but requires significant improvements to meet basic expectations.

The outdoor sitting areas charm with their quaint vibe. The breakfast spread features custom waffles and avocado toast that keep you coming back for more.
The pathways could use a serious clean-up.

The Casablanca was a bit of a mixed bag for us. On the bright side, the room was spacious and clean, with a decent balcony to enjoy the fresh air. The air conditioning/heating unit worked well and wasn't noisy, which was a big plus. The large room had a sitting area that was cozy and a dining table for convenience. there were a few drawbacks. The sheets were stained, which was off-putting, and there was sand in the carpet. The carpet itself looked a bit worn and could probably use an upgrade. The housekeeping could have been more thorough in ensuring a spotless environment. We also had a disturbing incident with noisy neighbors that kept us up until 5 am, leading us to oversleep and miss check out. The front desk staff's response was quite harsh, threatening to call the police and accusing us of having illegal items in the room, which was completely untrue and left us feeling shocked and upset. The interaction with the management was also quite unprofessional, as they abruptly told us to never stay there again over a simple misunderstanding about an extra charge. the location on the main street was convenient for entertainment and quick access to amenities. The courtyard was a nice spot to relax and read, and the heated pool was a great feature. overall, the experience did not quite live up to the expectations set by the advertisement and the pricing as it leaned more towards a decent motel rather than a full-fledged resort experience.

The kids enjoyed the hot tub and pool after a long day. The breakfast had a good spread, and the staff was really friendly.
It wasn’t exactly inexpensive, but worth it for a family getaway.

This place is an absolute gem! Loved lounging by the outdoor heated pool with a jacuzzi right next to me. Waking up to breakfast in the sweet café setting was the perfect start to every day!
Can't recommend highly enough! ❤️😍

The location is fantastic—just steps from the beach and nestled in a charming area filled with family-owned restaurants. Will at the front desk was incredibly helpful. The rooms were spacious, equipped with a fridge and microwave, but cleanliness was an issue; I found hair in the sink and grime in the bathroom. Noise from the street was bothersome, especially being near the ice machine. While the breakfast had some interesting options, it leaned heavily on packaged goods, lacking a fresh, local vibe. Despite the challenges, the pool and jacuzzi added a nice touch to the stay.

I showed up and they told me my king room was given away—what a joke! Had to settle for a different room and then heard the hot water was out. Seriously disappointing, especially when they knew I was coming.

The Casablanca Inn boasts a great location near the beach and charming downtown. I appreciated the spacious, well-decorated rooms and enjoyed the lovely pool. The friendly staff truly made a difference, although some maintenance issues should be addressed for a smoother experience.

Our family had a blast at the magical kingdom, playing with pirates, meeting fairy-tale princesses, and exploring exotic jungles. The Salsa challenge showcased local dancing skills, creating a fun and lively atmosphere for all.
My children wished for more variety in the children's menu.

stayed at casablanca inn and it was great. spacious room with a nice balcony and a very good bathroom. everything was working. super friendly and competent staff that helped me on how to get around. perfect location with a lot of bars, shops and restaurants at walking distance. beach also within walking distance. close to 405, so, "near" from everything else.
Nothing it is perfect ♿️

During Christmas, my family and I had a great time at this charming inn. The room was cozy and comfy, with a lovely balcony perfect for morning coffee with a view of the sunrise. The breakfast served by the delightful staff was a highlight, and the convenient location near transportation made exploring the town a breeze.
Our stay was disrupted by noisy neighbors that kept us up until 5 am, causing us to oversleep our check-out time. The front desk staff's handling of the situation was unprofessional and confrontational, leading to a distressing and unwelcoming departure experience.

I had a blast watching show cars and enjoying the beach. The fitness center kept me active. My private balcony view was lovely.
Nothing like having cold water and rude staff on vacation, such a dream! .

The breakfast room was cute, set up like an Italian cafe with yummy toast and smoothies. The pool area had a hot jacuzzi and a view of the ocean.
The room furnishings looked worn out and the bathroom door didn't close properly. The area around the hotel seemed a bit sketchy.

We hit up the Salsa Challenge and rocked the dance floor with locals, then conquered the magical kingdom, meeting princesses and exploring everywhere. The Front Desk check-in was smooth, and we enjoyed a day full of fun activities for young party-goers. It was lit!
To top it off, we wish there was a cool rooftop bar with live music for us young crowd to keep the party going all night long! .
