vacation on balboa island

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: we've stayed at this property before (2022). Some items to note:-between the car and the half a dozen e-bikes being stored in the garage, there's no room to move around-the culligan water filter doesn't work and the water pitcher in the fridge is in desperate need of a filter change -the microwave is broken-the ice maker is broken

Fantastic Stay in Balboa Island

My family and I traveled to Newport Beach and loved the location of this home. Easy walking distance to the ferry, and all of the islands offerings. Also, it was next to a great Mexican Restaurant, Todos Santos. Highly recommend these accommodations and will definitely attempt to stay there again in the future.

Relaxing beach vacation

We stayed for a wonderful 4 nights and had a lovely time. Location is wonderful and we found a quiet little beach and swim spot for my 4 year old to enjoy without the worry of a long walk or waves. The house was beautiful and comfortable. Can’t wait to go back!

Terrific house!

House was beautiful and my kids loved the giant bunk beds. Before arriving, I didn’t appreciate how great it would be to stay one block from the ferry - it was super easy and fun. We had a blast!

Balboa Island Vacation

We went to Balboa Island for a family reunion. The house was in the perfect location and great proximity to all our events including beach, walks, rides on the ferry, and restaurants. The home was gorgeous; it was clean and felt like an extension of our own residences. We would definitely rent the home in the future!
