Place is awesome right on the beach. Just needs a little TLC paint, change the shower fixtures they are old. Otherwise it is awesome and we will stay again.

The property’s kitchen was well stocked with dishes pans and cooking utensils. The beds were comfortable clean and plenty of towels for everyone. Also lots of beach chairs and toys.

That's nice to hear, Patricia. We're glad you enjoyed the house's amenities. We hope to see you again!
Everything at this place was as expected. It sits almost right on the sand which leads to beautiful views. The living area was a good size to host our group altogether. Our only issue is that the doors/windows were a little drafty, but we were there in off-season and it's typically not that chilly in Newport Beach.

Very enjoyable, entire family was comfortable, good location for bikes, swimming & boating. Love the house.Minor repairs necessary: dinning chairs need screws tightened on bottom of seats or you’ll lose them. Coffee machine listed on internet is incorrect.

Thanks, Charleen! We're so glad your family had a comfortable and enjoyable stay, and that the location was great for your activities. We appreciate the heads-up about the dining chairs and coffee machine—we’ll make sure those are addressed. Hope to welcome you back again soon!
First we had all the room we needed. The kitchen and main floor was a great location for all of the family to hang, play games and reminisce. The view facing the water was breathtaking, you are literally steps away from the sand. Well stocked and is exactly as described. Lastly great communication from the host. We will definitely come back.

We enjoyed our stay with our kids and grandkids! Loved the boardwalk to the beach and the various decks. Overall the property was clean, although the carpets could use a good steam cleaning. The property manager was very helpful as was the good communication.

Perfect location! That’s what we loved most about this visit - the ability to walk out the door onto the strand and beach. We loved being down the peninsula a little more so that you didn’t get quite as much traffic rolling past. Do know that you will get street noise. Unavoidable as there is only one Main Street up and down balboa peninsula. And the windows on the street side are super thin - so you can sleep with them open or closed - doesn’t matter because they are so thin, when closed it sounds like they are open! To be expected though. Kitchen had everything we needed. Primary suite was fantastic. A couple of inaccurate advertisements for the house. It says Nespresso for coffee so we bought based on that information. Turned out it is a Keurig at that house. Also, it says no bikes there but there were 4 beach cruisers in the garage. AvantStay was a good property manager. They encourage (to be read - require) you to shift over from Vrbo to their platform for the trip - filling out forms, communication, etc. it’s a good platform, but really - if you advertise on Vrbo, it’s nice to use, and expect to be able to use that platform. The place was clean when we got there but expect a heavy dose of cleaning solution smell for the first day/night. It was intense. The house itself is pretty beat up. It’s a rental so it is par for the course. But lots of nicks on the walls and just a little rough around the edges for the price. But it would not deter us from staying there again.

Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We’re so glad you loved the location, especially being just steps from the strand and beach, and that the primary suite and kitchen worked well for your stay.
We also appreciate you calling out the inconsistencies you noticed around the coffee setup and bikes—this is helpful, and we’ll make sure those details are corrected so future guests have accurate expectations. Your notes on noise, cleaning scent, and overall wear are also understood and will be shared with our team for review.
We’re happy to hear it didn’t take away from your overall experience and that you’d consider staying again—that means a lot. We’d love to host you in the future!
We decided to extend our trip from Disneyland and found this listing here on VRBO. Absolutely blown away by the cleanliness, communication, and overall experience staying at this property. The night before, we received a message from the host with instructions, and a message the following day inquiring if we needed anything. When I had questions beforehand, they answered immediately. Grateful to have stayed here and created a great memory with our family. We absolutely recommend staying here.
