This was a great rental. Very clean inside, fully furnished, nice comfy beds and linens. You have a full service kitchen with pots, pans, dishes, coffee pot and microwave! Close to everything park your car and don't move it for the entire week you are there! I have 2 kids and they too had a blast! The house was very comfortable. The deck was great for drinking coffee in the morning and people watching in the afternoon. Great location to access the beach and restaurants! I loved this place and was sad when our week was over! We will for sure be coming back to this house!

This was a great place to spend a week! The rental was very nice, spacious, well-stocked and had all the amenities you could want. The location was perfect! Just across the street from the Newport pier with the beach, shops and plenty of restaurants just steps away. Due to the great location, it is a bit noisy at night but it adds character to the rental. I would definitely stay here again and recommend this property to a friend.

My neice, her husband and I stayed in this great beach house located just minutes away from the pier, resturants, beach shops and night life. Everything is within walking distance. The unit is very clean and pictures are accurate. David was very accommodating and easy to work with. I really enjoyed sitting on the balcony on early mornings with coffee and late at night watching the night life. If you are a beach goer, bring your own beach towels and equipment, everything else is provided. Enjoyed the large closets and master bedroom and bath.

I would highly recommend this home. I had an awesome, relaxing stay. The home is very well equipped, clean and the location is amazing. The balcony was great for relaxing, having a cup of coffee in the morning and glass of wine in the evening. Renting this home was so easy and the owner very helpful. I look forward to returning again next year.

I just have to say that this house was a great spot to stay at. It is in an ideal location. You can walk everywhere. I parked my car and did not use it until the day i had to leave. The house was clean, and was very spacious and roomy. Thank you for supplying shampoo! (I forgot mine). You thought of everything for this home. Beds are comfy, and big closets. The kitchen is perfect and has everything you need. The photos are very accurate when describing this home, but in person its so much more roomy, and cozy. There is a blacony so sit and people watch or get some sun as well. I will definatly be staying here again. Thanks for a great experience!

My wife, daughter and I were visiting from Michigan for our son's law school graduation. He suggested we stay in Newport Beach. We searched the internet and saw the Pham residence and it jumped out above all others for location, quality of facility and price. We highly recommend the Pham property. As our daughter (25 yrs old) said, "This is awsome"

We stayed at the Pham family condo in July and often talk about our wonderful stay in Newport Beach. The condo was roomy for five adults and we frequently walked from its central location to our destinations. The updated kitchen was a pleasure to use when we chose to cook. Essentials and more were provided in the kitchen, bathroom, and living/dining areas. It was a pleasure to work with the Pham family as they were both professional and friendly. We would stay at the condo again if visiting the area.

Very fun vacation rental in the middle of all activities related to the beach; biking, rollerblading, boggie boarding, surfing, ice cream, corn dogs, fish tacos, margaritas, beer, boutique shops, fishing at the pier, walks on the beach, boating, and more. My family spent 7 nights there and wish we stayed longer. We will be back next year.

Thanks David, we had a great time as usual, however 4th of july is too crazy for us old timers and our kids see way to much on that day so hopefully we can rent the week before. I bought some mixing bowls and left them there for other renters cause we could not find any, no big deal at all, I will probablly ad to it every year if I see things like maybe a cookie sheet next year, but thanks for letting us come again. we loved it, KAthy

My family was more than pleasantly satisfied with our stay. Very clean, neat, and organized. They have new stainless steel appliances, cabinets, and beautiful granite tops. I love how I can sit on the barstools and eat breakfast while reading my morning paper. Paint looks fresh and new. Every room is equipped with Cable TV. Walking distance to everything fun. My family and I plan to be back every summer. The owners are nice.

We had a wonderful time at the Pham's lovely condo. It is located right in the hub of all the beach activities, restaurants and shops. Our family enjoyed being so close to the boardwalk...they're not kidding when they say one minute walk. The condo is quite large and comfortable and the ocean breeze keeps it nice and cool. Having a full kitchen is also a great thing as even on vacation there's nothing like relaxing over a dinner "at home."

My family of six stayed at the Newport Beach House, 2nd floor the week of July 7, 2007. The home was clean and spacious. There were plenty of bath towels, toiletries, bed linens, and kitchen utencils to make our stay convenient and comfortable. In the garage, there was a boogy board, two bikes, two surfboards, and a grill for our use. The home is just a short walk across the street to the shops, restaurants, beachfront, and pier. We loved our stay! Thank you so much for your hospitality - if we ever get back out to Newport again, we will certainly stay here! We highly recommend this home to anyone else who is intereseted in staying close to the beach, restaurants, and shops. Thank you again!

Quiet, relaxing, with easy walking access to resaurants, and day or evening strolls on the beach. The owners provided fishing poles that could be used on the Newport Pier which is a 1-2 minute walk away. Boogie boards and bicycles can also be found in the garage. We had a superb time. I liked how the owners included all fees in the quote so no hassle about "other charges." We will be back next year.

What an amazing deal! Right across the street from the Newport pier, two balconies...one with ocean view. The owners really care about you and are easily accessible. They provided a laptop computer with highspeed internet. I brought my own computer and had wireless access as well. Highly recommended. Good space. Very fun!

My family of 6 total had a wonderfull time in this Newport Beach vacation rental. We stayed for 3 weeks while our house was being renovated in Oahu and it truly felt like a home away from home. Highly recommended.
