The property was very clean and it is air conditioned! I think our biggest issue was it is the ground floor apartment and it is literally on a busy road right outside the front door. We felt we needed to keep the shades/blinds closed, which made it feel dark inside. The bathroom also had a damp smell. The property is centrally located, an easy walk to the ocean, marina and the shops/restaurants up along the ocean. It is also centrally located to drive anywhere.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you appreciated the central location and easy access to the beach, harbor, and local area. We’re sorry the street activity outside the home affected your comfort and understand how that could make the space feel less private. We also appreciate you mentioning the damp smell in the bathroom and have asked our Operations team to inspect it. We hope that overall you enjoyed your time in Newport Beach and would be happy to host you again. Kind regards, BVR

Location is fabulous! House is cute, Small in size, perfect for a couple and possibly small children. sharing square footage on the listing would help determine if this space works for your party. Overall I liked this house, it was clean and as pictured. The parking was too tight for our liking (Hyundai Elantra) so we opted to park on the street - metered parking. I would stay again for a couples get away.

We're glad that you found the home as advertised, but sorry to hear that the garage parking was too tight for you. It was our pleasure to host you, and we hope to see you again. Kind regards, BVR

We traveled here for a beach vacation with our newborn and it couldn’t have been a better overall experience! From the ease of booking and communication with the property management company to the perfect location close to the beach, it took the stress out of things and made our trip very enjoyable. Will definitely be back!

Cute Comfortable Cottage

Cute updated, Comfortable cottage by the beach. Unit A faces W balboa, but two blocks from the strand and beach and easy walk to pier and shops and restaurants. We rode bikes each day, enjoyed the beach and walked to dinner each night. Fun relaxing place to stay!
