Construction Updates

Casa Romantica Cultural Center and Gardens suffered a major landslide on April 27, 2023 with half an acre of gardens lost including our beloved Ocean Terrace and Native Bowl gardens.

After 18 months of construction to stabilize the cliffside, the Main Salon and interior rooms of the property were reopened as of October 4, 2024.

Official Statement (Updated on February 14, 2025):

Per the City of San Clemente, Phase I of the cliff stabilization project will be completed in April of this year. Phase II will commence thereafter, which includes rebuilding the structural components of Casa Romantica that were damaged in the landslide. There is no clear timeline for when construction will be completed. All questions regarding the progress of Phase II should be directed to the City of San Clemente.

Casa Romantica Cultural Center and Gardens welcomes the public to visit our newly refreshed exhibitions and exciting arts and cultural programming.
