Why we like it

San Clemente Villas by the Sea is a 190-bed assisted living community in coastal South Orange County, managed by MBK Senior Living. The community recently completed a comprehensive renovation and offers assisted living, memory care through their Connections for Living program, and short-term stays.

Amenities include ocean-view suites with private balconies, a Sky Lounge with panoramic views, restaurant-style dining, a movie theater, salon, fitness center, and a 24-hour cafe with espresso bar.

  • Fresh $20M renovation

    Every apartment and common space was fully rebuilt in a recent $20 million transformation — new finishes, redesigned dining room, and a Sky Lounge with panoramic ocean views.

  • Ocean-view suites available

    Select apartments have private balconies with ocean views. Studio, one-, and two-bedroom floor plans offered.

  • MBK Fit on-site

    Proprietary instructor-led fitness program designed to be accessible across ability levels — not a generic exercise class.

  • Long-tenured staff

    The facility claims multiple team members have worked there for over a decade, which is notable for a large 190-bed community.

  • Below-average safety record

    5 serious and 6 minor citations across 22 state inspections, with 3 verified complaints. Worth asking directly about recent findings and how they've been addressed before deciding.

  • Several amenities still unfinished

    The poolside retreat and arts and crafts studio were listed as in-progress or coming Spring 2026 at time of scrape. Ask what's complete now.

  • Memory care on-site

    The building includes memory care residents alongside assisted living. Confirm how the two populations are separated and whether that affects the environment for your family member.
