Have the BEST of both... the beautiful Newport Bay AND the Ocean!! It doesn't get better than this!!
Casa 229 is the NEWEST remodeled, gorgeously decorated, second-level, three-bedroom/two-bath beachfront Casa. It offers a living room, dining room, and a fully-appointed kitchen (including a professional stainless steel DCS range). The property is 50 feet wide - affording a rather large lengthy travertine covered deck across the width of the property.
Views! Views! Views! Unlike many oceanfront properties (with no view due to the width of the beach), you'll have amazing views both day and night! Our premium location is directly across from a beautiful large bay beach (Mother's Beach) - with views across Newport Bay of Fashion Island and Newport Coast. The view is particularly lovely at night with city and bay lights.
Watch the boats pass by from the comfort of your master bedroom, living room - and, of course, from your large private deck (which is great for outdoor dining). The deck also affords front-row seating for the Fourth of July Boat Parade and the world-famous Newport Harbor Christmas Boat Parade.
In addition to our bay front location, the property is just one short block from the ocean boardwalk and pier. And it's within walking distance of many restaurants offering a variety of fare. Enjoy Mexican cuisine, seafood (including the famous Crab Cooker two blocks away), Italian, Sushi, and several gourmet restaurants such as Renato's, Ocean Front, El Ranchito, and Arches at their two new locations.
Walk or bike to Balboa Island, Lido, and the Fun Center, located near the Pavilion.
This home was recently extensively renovated. The floors, including the master bedroom floor, are lovely Virginia Vintage maple hardwood planks hand distressed and scraped. The living room has a lovely sea grass rug atop the wood.
The kitchen has beautiful custom cabinets and granite counters. The decor is upscale beachy with a British Colonial/Tommy Bahama feel with slip-covered furniture and tons of beautiful artwork. It's painted in a soothing neutral palette - designed to enhance the lovely water view.
All bedrooms are efficient, with built-ins in the closets. To add more of a Caribbean feel, the window coverings are all lined Bamboo Roman shades. The master bedroom has sliding doors to the front deck with substantial views! There are two new bathrooms beautifully done in limestone. One is private to the master bedroom.
There is sleeping for six in beds - with a NEW Cal King Westin Heavenly pillow top in the master...and a NEW Queen Westin Heavernly Pillow Top in a secondary bedroom. The third bedroom has two twin beds. A new queen sofa sleeper can accommodate two more guests.
The property is well maintained and always super clean.
Bring your fishing poles! There is a small bay dock two doors away for fishing and loading/unloading passengers. There are electric and motor boats for rent at the Pavilion. Don't forget your tennis rackets too! Free Courts are two blocks away. And there's a great tot lot just one block away!
From the moment you walk through the Dutch door, you'll feel "at home" - and maybe a little pampered at the beach.
To make it the perfect vacation all Casa's have wireless hi-speed Internet, cotton sheets, spa towels, beach towels, beach chairs, umbrellas, blow dryers, washer/dryers, Weber gas bbq grills, and commercial outdoor heaters (if needed off season). All you need is your food and drink!

Gorgeous location and property
Guest: JLJ
(Creswell, Oregon)
Date of Stay: 11/19/11
Review Submitted: 11/20/11
Beautiful property in a terrific location in Newport Beach. The property was spotless, communication with the owner/manager was great, and it was very well stocked. For those who have children, it is well child-proofed yet beautiful and upscale at the same time. Really love the open deck with heat lamp and outdoor furniture. The sand is just steps away and the views at night and during the day are fabulous. Would definitely come back.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, sightseeing, families with young children.
Amazing Vacation!

This property delivers on all levels! It is stunning and has a perfect location. Having the beach so close was key with our two small children and there are so many fun activities to do nearby (paddleboarding, biking, boating, visiting the Fun Zone, Balboa Island, etc.) it was hard saying goodbye. Pam has thought of every detail possible to make your vacation special. Ours truly was -- we can't wait to return!
Owner response:Vanessa, Thanks so much for taking the time to write. I received the utensils in the mail today! lol Thanks! Hope top have you back soon! Pam

Best rental in Newport Beach...

This is best place to rent in Newport Beach - the house is exactly as described, the view is perfect and the location can't be beaten. A quiet getaway yet only moments from all the action. Not our first time and definitely won't be our last.
Owner response:Thanks Paul. I appreciate your taking the time to write. Thanks again for returning to Casa de Balboa. I am glad you enjoyed both Casas you stayed in and look forward to your return visit once again. Pam

Stay at Casa de Balboa over Christmas

Review Submitted: 12/26/10
Casa de Balboa is absolutely beautiful. It boasts one of California's most classic beach settings with gorgeous relaxing views of the harbor and beautiful sail boats. The beach and Newport pier is 2 minutes on the other side. Historic restaurants like Crab Cooker, Charlie's Chili and Old Spaghetti Factory are walking distance away. Really enjoyable experience!

Best on the Beach
Guest: Mikel
(Lehi, UT)
Date of Stay: 10/02/10
Review Submitted: 10/11/10
We've stayed at Casa de Balboa before and will continue to stay there In the future. It's immaculately kept and the nicest place in Newport to rent for a great beach getaway. We spend three days on the beach and three days at local attractions such as Disneyland or the Aquarium of the Pacific (in Longbeach) both times we've been - I would also recommend a great Seafood dinner at the Crab Cooker - only three blocks away. If you've got small children, the beach right out the front door is perfect due to being on the harbor side of the peninsula and has no waves; if you want the big surf, walk less than 60 seconds across the street to the open Pacific. We love this place and Pan ensures that these are the best place in Newport. One last thing, if you love a beautiful sunrise over the harbor - this is the placet stay!

We had a fantastic time in Casa de Balboa #229. It is a fabulous place. It was everything you promised and more. Our casa was beautifully furnished and very clean. Everything was first rate--from the furniture to the bedding, from the artwork to the appliances. We've been renting homes all over the West Coast for 10 years (Hawaii, San Diego, Santa Barbara, Lake Tahoe, etc.), and this was the best we've had. We'll definitely be back. In addition to the quality of the home, the location is amazing, with such easy access to the ocean, the pier, and the private bay beach across the street. It is quiet yet in the middle of everything at the same time. And the views are terrific. Thanks for a wonderful vacation.

We loved the 11 days we spent in 229 Casa de Balboa. What a ideal vacation spot for a family. The unit is clean, comfortable, well appointed and simply a perfect spot to relax. Even our friends who live in Newport Beach thought it was a gem. They all kept coveting our little spot of paradise and wondering how they had missed this location. Thank you for making Casa de Balboa available.

We just spent a wonderful and relaxing week in 229! It is located in a quiet part of the bay and was so nice to come "home" to after a busy day. The interior of 229 is masterfully decorated and the beds are comfortable beyond belief! There are no negatives to staying here, only very positive experiences that we will always remember!
Owner response:Thanks..and we hope to have you back very soon!!
