Ole Hanson Beach Club – San Clemente, CA

Here at World Class Wedding Venues, we love a good Spanish Colonial style venue—especially when you pair it with breathtaking ocean views. That’s Ole Hanson Beach Club in a nutshell. If a relaxed, elegant celebration along the coast is right up your alley, this popular Southern California venue is definitely worth a tour.

Celebration Backdrop Like No Other

Imagine saying “I do” on a lush, manicured lawn with swaying palm trees and rolling waves creating a spectacular stage. Then, invite your guests to enjoy a gourmet meal on a delightful rooftop terrace soaked in romantic golden hour sunshine.

There’s truly nothing like celebrating love along the peaceful California coast!

Historic Landmark Highlighting the Best of Southern Cali

The 1928 Spanish-Revival-style building is named after Ole Hanson, the founder and developer of San Clemente’s famous “Spanish Village by the Sea.” The property exhibits some of the most distinctive features of traditional Spanish architecture, including:

- Smooth stucco siding

- Classic terracotta roof tiles

- Traditional arches

- Elaborate hand-painted tiles

- Ornate stained glass windows

- Original wrought iron grillwork

Four Awe-Inspiring Event Spaces

Ole Hanson Beach Club offers four fabulous spaces for different parts of your wedding celebration:

1. Grand Lawn: A top pick for beachfront wedding ceremonies, the sprawling green lawn gives way to mature palm trees and marvelous water views—essentially all you’d want from a SoCal wedding venue.

2. Main Room: The only enclosed event space, this lovely room features spectacular wooden beams, loads of natural light, ornate stained glass, sweet ocean views, and direct access to the two outdoor terraces.

3. West Terrace: This sweeping rooftop terrace is a popular choice for golden hour receptions, offering a luxurious open-air spot for a memorable evening of fine dining and dancing.
