Yes, paradise
We could not have been happier with this house and its location. Spotless, comfortable, and nicely appointed. Fit 5 of us perfectly. 30 second walk to beach, 4 minute walk to grocery store,10 minute walk to Balboa pier which has many shops and restaurants. Very cute beach house community with views of the beach from balconies. We rented bikes for the week which was the way to go. You can bike the entire 7 mile peninsula along the beach boardwalk to Hunnington Beach, the fun zone where we rented paddle boards and boats, and much more. We didn't drive for 4 days, which was heaven. The only negative was the huge Trump poster on the house across the street :( Otherwise, it was the perfect vacation.
Great house in a great location!
Just got back from a long weekend reunion of two college roommates who had once lived on 31st street. Naturally, we wanted to find a rental near there and Gary's Paradise Beach House was the perfect spot! It is the upstairs front unit of the house and has recently been refurbished complete with new granite counter tops and new appliances in the kitchen, beautiful modern bathrooms, and fresh paint all around! It was very clean and had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend of reminiscing from two bedrooms upstairs with comfortable cal King beds and two beautiful bathrooms (one ensuite) to three different outdoor spaces to enjoy! We spent our mornings on the front deck sipping coffee and enjoying the view of the waves breaking on the sand right down the street. Afternoon cocktail time was divided between the front sundeck off the master suite with a great ocean view to the rear sundeck off the second bedroom with it's sunset view. The beach and it's awesome boardwalk are a quick walk down the street. Gary even provided nice Tommy Bahama beach chairs for us to borrow during our stay. Working with Gary was a pleasure and if we needed to know anything about the local area the friendly fellow living in the downstairs unit was more than happy to help us! Everything you could want is within walking distance including the beach, fully provisioned grocery and liquor store, bike rental, and the Newport Pier. I highly recommend this house and will definitely be renting it for our next visit to Newport Beach. Thanks Gary!!
Great experience!
This was our first experience with a vacation rental and Gary set the bar high for all others. We had a fabulous time at his beach house! The accommodations fit our family of 4's needs perfectly. Gary was a great host, the amenities were everything we could have asked for and the location was fabulous.
Thank you Gary! We'll definitely book with you again when we are in the area.
Great location and Comfort.
Booking this property with Gary was a breeze and he was very prompt and professional with managing the property. I left a few items at the property and he was courteous enough to mail them to me in Texas! The location was great and convenient to all of the local spots for breakfast, lunch & dinner. The tenant on the first level was very kind and courteous as well. Parking at the property was somewhat difficult so make sure you rent a small vehicle! Would definitely stay here again!
Wonderful Newport Local Getaway
Our family of 4 loved our visit during the winter holiday break at Gary's great getaway, situated in a wonderful Newport location. We felt like locals – enjoying walking 2 blocks away from the sandy white beach & boardwalk, riding nearby rental bikes on the bike path, and being walking distance to restaurants and cafes and even Pavilions grocery store for home-cooking, easy access to surfing lessons at Huntington and hiking at Crystal Cove. This 3 bedroom brightly lit upper unit had a comfortable feel with the hardwood floors, outside decks and comfy beds with good linens. The covered parking spot and safe neighborhood for our teenage girls to explore were key. Gary was the host of the most – giving us a great orientation to the area & its Lido Marina, Wedge, Balboa Island and was so responsive to all our needs from inquiry to arrival and checkout. Many thanks, Gary, for our great stay to your lovely home!
Great house! Close to the Beach
We came to Newport for my cousins wedding and found staying at this house, instead of a hotel, a much better alternative. The house is clean and quite comfortable for 2 families. The house does not have central air, which was not an issue at night because we opened all the windows and had fans, but during the day, the house was a bit uncomfortable. From what I am told, not many houses have central air. The only negative, was that amount of noise during the day from a neighbor blasting his music each day which made it difficult for my 15 month old to take a nap since we had to keep the windows open.
The owner, Gary, was very attentive, even from overseas! The location was perfect! An easy walk to the beautiful beach and a short walk to the pier. The grocery store was also in walking distance. Oh, parking spaces are hard to come by but the property has a parking space in the back of the house.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay! Newport Beach is a beautiful place with lots of activities, friendly people, and great weather!!
Map
It is in an excellent location only 25 mins to Disneyland and 45 mins to Knotts Berry Farm amusement parks. Great shopping can be found at either Fashion Island or South Coast Plaza shopping centers. Other Beach cities close by are Huntington beach & pier (Surfcity USA), Corona del Mar & Laguna Beach (village and artist community). The coast line is stunning. You can take a 1 hr-15 min ferryboat ride to Santa Catalina Island as a day trip to Avalon.
