Om overnatningsstedet

Lille Balboa-ø, brugerdefineret hjem med udsigt over vandet, bedømt nr. 1 (SORT: Gæstevurderinger)

Læs venligst NOEN af de mere end 65 enstemmige femstjernede anmeldelser, som vi har modtaget på mindre end fire år på VRBO; eller sorter efter "Gæstevurderinger", der rangerer Casa la Pina nr. 1 ud af mere end 300 huslejer, som VRBO fejlagtigt samler sig i en søgning efter “Balboa Island” inklusive ejendomme fra Costa Mesa til Corona Del Mar og Balboa-halvøen (IKKE øen) . LEJERE VÆR OP: KUN omkring 100 af disse 300+ ejendomme er faktisk PÅ Balboa Island!

Enten af metoderne ovenfor fortæller historien om dette usædvanlige 4 soveværelser / 3. 5 bad brugerdefinerede hjem med udsigt over vandet, kun 50 meter fra havnefronten i tre retninger, på det sydøstlige hjørne af "Lille" Balboa Island. Designet af den bemærkede lokale arkitekt Ian Harrison og bygget i 2004, tilbyder vores Cape Cod hjem det bedste fra Balboa Island. Beliggende mindre end en kvarter mile (3 blokke) fra Marine Avenue, hvor blokke af dejlige butikker og restauranter har leveret detailfaciliteter til området i mere end 100 år.

Vores hjem er IKKE din grundlæggende slidte & revne "strandudlejning" og er muligvis ikke det bedste hus for familier med masser af små børn. Ejendommen inkluderer avanceret design, konstruktion, apparater, finish og møbler. Vi tilbyder bredt planke hårdttrægulve i stueplan, ni fod lofter eller mere i hele huset, et "avanceret" 7. 1 surround sound-system med et 55 "HD-tv i stuen samt et nestekontrolleret klimaanlæg med tre zoner (klimaanlæg er sjældent blandt ferieboliger på Balboa Island). En ELEVATOR er tilgængelig for ældre borgere (efter anmodning), og der er et fuldt udstyret vaskerum med granitbenk og en vask inde i huset (IKKE i garagen som med mange huslejer på Balboa Island). Vi leverer også en stor parkeringsplads i vores tilknyttede garage, der komfortabelt kan rumme en bil i fuld størrelse (overfor vores egen bil, som vi ofte efterlader dækket i en meget ryddig garage med to biler); OG der er rigelig gratis parkering på gaderne på Lille Balboa Island. Vores hjem har også et fuldt møbleret tagterrasse på tredje sal med en række udsigt over vandet og Fashion Island på fastlandet.

Vi kalder vores hjem "Casa la Pina", eller på engelsk, "The Pineapple House", og du vil bemærke temaet i vores udsmykning. Hvis nysgerrig, Google "ananas betydning", da ananas har været et tegn på gæstfrihed tilbage til de høje sejlskibs dage, da havkaptajner bragte den tropiske delikatesse tilbage til deres nordlige hjem og efterlod dem på deres veranda som et tegn på deres tilbagevenden og en åben invitation til venner at besøge. Ananas blev opdaget af Christopher Columbus i Caribien på hans første tur til den "nye verden", og de er stadig et symbol på velkomst i hele den vestlige civilisation i dag.




Sengetøj og håndklæder: Sengetøj, puder, dyner og dyner i høj kvalitet (alle professionelt hvidvaskede) samt badehåndklæder og badehåndklæder; ER leveret !!!

FØRSTEGANGSLEJERE: Nu hvor VRBO kræver, at vi tillader online-reservation, har vi kun 24 timer til at gennemgå og godkende førstegangs lejere, der booker online og bruger et kreditkort. Hvis du booker denne måde, skal du give baggrundsinformation med din online-forespørgsel (hvorfra, formålet med besøg på Balboa Island, alder for hver person i din gruppe, anerkendelse af, at du IKKE har rygere eller kæledyr i din gruppe osv. ...) .

Forstå, at vi sætter en ære i og plejer vores ejendom. Gennemgå vores fortegnelse i detaljer. Læs NOEN af vores anmeldelser. Vi lover dig en enestående lejeoplevelse, men vil gerne vide lidt om vores første gangskunder på forhånd, mens vi håber at opbygge langsigtede forhold, der er gensidigt fordelagtige.

LUFTFART: Vi har tilføjet et link til en luftfoto (fra YouTube), der blev skudt af en drone til et hjem, der for nylig afsluttede et par døre ned ad gaden fra os. Vi er IKKE emnet for videoen, men vi ER i nærheden i samme gade, og videoen giver et fantastisk overblik over vores placering på "Lille Balboa Island". Vi er det grå / hvide Cape Cod hjem med det runde dæk på anden sal, overfor huset med den lyserøde markise. Den røde markise er en god markør for vores hjem, når du flyver over vores gade.

Der VAR også et andet link i vores liste til en generel video om Balboa Island, men VRBO har slettet den af en eller anden uforklarlig grund. Det er mindre end to minutter og giver dig et hurtigt overblik over, hvorfor Balboa Island er en af de bedste og mest unikke feriepladser i verden! Jeg er sikker på, at det og mange andre kan lide det, stadig findes med en hurtig søgning på Google.

Om området

Newport Beach

Denne feriebolig befinder sig i Balboa Island – et område i Newport Beach, der ligger tæt på forlystelsesparker og på stranden. Fashion Island og Irvine Spectrum Center er begge et besøg værd, hvis shopping står på agendaen. Er det derimod stedets populære seværdigheder, der lokker, kan du kigge forbi Orange County Fair and Events Center og Great Wolf Lodge Water Park. Newport Harbor Nautical Museum og Balboa Fun Zone er også et besøg værd. Oplevelser som jetski og kajakroning giver gode muligheder for at komme ud på eller i det omgivende vand, eller du kan tage på eventyr ved at afprøve mountainbiking og økoture i nærheden.

We have just returned from a one-week stay at this property, and we found the experience excellent. The host, Mark, was helpful and attentive both before and during our stay, checking in with us regularly, although we encountered no difficulties requiring his attention. The home was very clean upon arrival and all amenities were provided as described. The home is beautifully and comfortably decorated and is located on a lovely, quiet street on Little Balboa Island. We spent a great deal of time simply enjoying the sun and the view from the front porch, catching glimpses of the ocean beyond. Marine Avenue, with its banana stands, shops, and restaurants, was minutes away on foot. Our family of six loved our stay and would happily return in future years, and we have been visiting the island (and various rental homes) annually for over 20 years. Thank you for a great vacation!

Truly Fantastic Balboa Rental

Casa La Pina is one of the very best properties that we have rented. The house itself is gorgeous and very well appointed with all conveniences one could dream of. We particularly appreciated the extremely comfortable master bed, sheets and plush towels. We also loved the charming and quiet locale on the little island. Finally, Mark is a delightful host and was very solicitous about our needs and comfort. A true find.

Sweet Little Balboa Island

We visit Balboa Island, at least twice a year to see family. Our visit to this house on Little Balboa Island did not disappoint. Everything you could possibly need was available in the home. The home was inviting with personalized touches which I always appreciate. I would say communication with the owners was excellent and only needed for one question we had. We would definitely stay again in this lovely home and in the future

Very luxurious property in an excellent location for exploring Newport Beach. Shopping, restaurants, and the beach are within a short walk. Short as in 5 minutes. Beautiful finishes in the rental, and all the tools you would need if you want to cook. The pictures online are accurate and true.

My family and I Were so happy to be returning to Newport Beach for another great family vacation.... One of the highlights of our vacation was staying at this beautifully well kept and charming home. We generally don't love staying in someone else's home (due to cleanliness issues and conditions of property) but we're happy to find ourselves feeling right at home from the start. The house is kept in top notch condition and the location was great, We walked or rode our bikes everywhere!! We look forward to returning in the not too distant future.

Want to feel spoiled? Rent this spectacular home!

Casa la Pina is a beautiful, comfortable, gorgeously decorated house. We rented it for the weekend to celebrate my 50th birthday. Friends were able to stop by for a drink and a visit on the large patio. The house was very clean and well-equipped with everything we needed. We barbequed, used the outdoor shower to wash off the sand from the beach. Had a lovely dinner at the large dining table, etc. The beds are very comfortable. Mark and Cindy were lovely to work with as well. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this fabuous home!

Impeccable Accomodations !!

The Pineapple house was truly immaculate. Mark was wonderful and always there for our every email. Added bonus that the inside AND outside of the house were decorated for the holidays. Superb decorations from restoration hardware really did the trick. All beds were very comfy and everything was especially quiet at night. Spent the majority of time on the couch in front of the fireplace, or right outside on the patio. Island parking is somewhat tough, but not here as two full size SUV's fit in garage with ample room to spare.

Thanks Matt. We greatly appreciate the kind words regarding our home on Little Balboa Island. You have echoed other reviews that speak to the exceptional quality our home and location. Glad you liked our Christmas decorations too! Admittedly, we did that for ourselves, but are glad that our tenants can enjoy them too. We were pleased to get an "honorable mention" from the judges in our first year in the island's annual home decorating contest. However, my wife and I have resolved to do better next year, although we recognize that we face very stiff competition. The Holidays are such an incredible time of the year on BI! We hope you'll return someday, and remember, returning guests get discounts from our advertised rates!

Excellent place to stay

Absolutely perfect home. Very clean. Not a place for young kids because you are on a small island and close to neighbors. Also this house has recently been remodeled and has all new things. The owners got back with us right away with our questions. Beds r so comfortable, love the shower pressure and temperature. Kitchen is stocked with spices and great cookware. Great magazines to read while on the balcony. New bikes and backpack beach chairs we perfect for spending the day at the beach. Very organized. Love the fact the door locks with a code, so you do not have to worry about a key. Nice to have garage to park in.

Great property with Fantastic views seconds from the water

Planned a couples weekend here for six so that everyone could get together for some downtime. We were not disappointed. Sitting by the fire pit on the front patio was a great way to relax and cleanse the work week away, while there is a great sundeck on the third floor with more privacy and great views. Being on Little Balboa is certainly a plus. The house is seconds from the water. We used the public dock right around the corner to launch the stand up paddle boards we rented and tour around the island. Also, its just a couple minutes walk to the main street with plentiful bars, restaurants, a local market, and all the frozen bananas you can eat. We didn't use any of our cars once the entire weekend, which is exactly what was needed. I would certainly recommend a stay here for whatever the occasion.

Perfect Beach Vacation Retreat

We just loved our stay at Casa La Piña. All the previous reviews attracted us to this property and we were not disappointed. It does not feel like a rental property, it feels like a home, but it could be anyone's as there are no signs of who lives there beyond the "pineapple" theme in the decor. We got a kick out of discovering pineapple decorating items throughout the home - a nice touch and so much fun. We are not the first to say it, but this home is the best there is on Balboa Island. It is a beautiful home in a great location near the village where all the shops and restaurants are located, but not too close. It's also very near the water on the southern bay front and the walkway that circles the island. The house itself is extremely nice and well maintained with everything you can think of in a luxury property. It is perfect & we intend to make this an annual family beach vacation retreat!

Cindy and I are glad you enjoyed your stay at Casa la Pina on “Little” Balboa Island and appreciate your favorable review. You might be amused to know that we picked up the pineapple theme when we lived in New England many years ago. We thought its application to a Cape Cod home near the ocean was an appropriate use of the historic emblem of welcome and hospitality. We’ve enjoyed finding new, and frequently small ways, to use pineapple decor items throughout our home. We’re glad you got a kick out of it....

Grad Week!

As a Newport native old-timer, and needing a place for home base for my son's recent college graduation, the house on Jade was the perfect solution last week. It was such a treat to "live" on the 'Little Island" ! For those who are not familiar with the area, the "Little Island" is the oasis off the hectic, often crowded with tourists larger main island.The house was immaculate, very well appointed with every detail thoughtfully attended to and lots of useful information provided everywhere. It is the perfect setting for family gatherings as there are plenty of beds, bathrooms and a fully stocked kitchen for all kinds of entertaining. We especially enjoyed the fire pit in the evenings! Mark and Cindy were great to work with and were always so prompt with responses. I would highly recommend 115 Jade as a top consideration when deciding on a place to enjoy a Newport Beach/Balboa Island. Will definitely return!

Wonderful house, perfect location

This is a beautiful house, just like the pictures show. The details of this home are wonderful and it feels like your own home not like most rental homes. The house is so well maintained and does not feel like a worn rental house. It has a great layout with all the bedrooms upstairs and the living spaces downstairs. The master bedroom is very spacious and the 1 year old in our family was able to sleep in his portable crib in the walk in closet in the master. It's like another bedroom for an infant which is very helpful. My 9 & 12 year olds loved the bunk beds on the 3rd floor. There was plenty of space for the 9 of us. The house location on "little" Balboa Island was so convenient and peaceful. There are less people driving and biking on little Balboa and we felt quite spoiled there. The house is only a 2 block walk to the main street with shops & restaurants. And we spent most evenings on the front patio with wine & cheese, enjoying the firepit. Mark was a wonderful host and very communicative upfront and during our stay with any questions. We will definitely be back again!

Above and Beyond Other Rentals

My wife and I are very experienced in renting vacation properties. We have rented properties up and down the beach from LA to San Diego and in the Palm Springs CA area. We have worked with various agencies and property owners. I can easily declare that our Thanksgiving Holiday stay at this property was probably the best rental experience we have ever had. The quality of accommodations was outstanding. Everything from the first class bed linens and towels to the well stocked, modern kitchen to the comfortable family room/sitting area was enjoyed by our family of six adults and two small children. There are beautiful outdoor seating areas and a clean and spacious garage. This property is clearly a step above the typical Newport Beach/Balboa area rental. Our whole group agreed that this was the cleanest and best maintained property we have ever rented. Another important factor for us when we rent a property is our level of trust and communication with the property owner. Mark was amazing to work with and he made the process so simple and efficient. He provided us with excellent instructions on the property and he gave us great local tips. Mark was a joy to work with. It goes without saying...this will be our "go-to" property the next time we are looking to rent a place in the Newport Beach area.

Make memories here!

This home on little balboa island is the perfect location rental. Located on a quiet, pretty street, steps away from the sand on the bay - short walk to shops on Marine Ave. Biking around the island is easy. Walking is wonderful along all the bay fronts. Walking onto the property, first you are greeted with a beautiful patio, full of lovely flowers offering that cozy vibe, for your morning cup of coffee. The first floor is wonderful ( fav of mine the tongue and groove ceiling) - furnished with very nice decor, spacious and clean. Laundry room off the first floor is wonderful not in garage. Kitchen clean, fully stocked walk in pantry with any appliance needed. Lots of spices,dishes, cups super cute pineapple wine glasses. Lots of utensils. Upstairs, 3 bedrooms all beautifully decorated with lovely linens on all the beds. Master bedroom is spacious,clean,pretty,fireplace and a beautiful vaulted ceiling. Beautiful clean lines,towels,beach towels,soaps, laundry detergent etc are all available. Bathrooms are all super clean, spacious. Master bath has an oversize shower. 3rd floor bunk room is great having its own nest thermostat- no heat rising worries. Rooftop is right off the bunk room. A nice place to enjoy views and a perfect place for al fresco dining. This home is light,bright,clean and equipped with extra comforts for a wonderful stay- plus garage parking - a must on the island Communication with host was beyond perfect. Owner has pride of ownership.

Pineapple House Was Great!

We stayed at the Pineapple house over spring break with our teen son, and college daughters recently. We aren't easily satisfied. Our level of expectations and comfort are top shelf. We expect things to be well cared for and not have to step down from our level of living. As someone who has been in real estate development my entire life, We have high standards. We also were returning to the area to visit old friends from earlier days. We wanted a home in which we could receive and entertain our guests. This house met those standards. This home exudes class, warm decorating tones and quality furnishings. The travertine tile master bath provided all the qualities my wife expects. The kitchen was fully furnished with quality appliances and function. The front patio allowed us to socialize near a fire pit with a glass of wine. The neighbors were friendly, helpful and sweet but not nosy. We happily chatted over the wall with them while sipping a glass of wine at the end of a few of our days there. It's a family atmosphere and we fit right in. The grill station allowed us to entertain guests and provide delicious food while we dined at the large dining table. The upper deck allowed the girls to sun privately without wind, leaving the home or being on display. If they preferred a short walk and ferry ride would deliver them to the beach but proved unnecessary. Bikes are available to rent nearby should one desire. The proximity to shops and quaint restaurants meant the family could go for a stroll to get dinner, coffee or a gift. Alternatively the perimeter sidewalks around the island allowed for a brisk walk for exercise. The car could remain parked and we could enjoy the view of the famous Newport Harbor only a few houses away. The owners were easy to work with, prompt in their response, patient in their answers and of similar requirements as us. We will definitely return if they will have room in this very successful home. They have a real winner of a home and it is with appreciation that we enjoyed sharing their home. It made our vacation perfect. Sincerely Paul

Thanks so much Paul for a great review. You touched on so many things that we hope differentiates us from the typical vacation rental property. We are trying to create the best possible rental property that makes our clients feel like they are in their own Balboa Island home. It helps when one enjoys such a great location to begin with, but we hope the extras like decor, furnishings, kitchen equipment, electronics and fire pits add to entire vacation experience at our home. Reviews like yours indicates we are on the right track! Thanks again and we hope you'll rent from us again in the future. Mark & Cindy

Om værten

Vært: Mark & Cindy

Værtens profilbillede
We both grew up back East, but have now lived in California for more than 35 years and both our children are natives. We always dreamt of living on Balboa Island, but only since semi-retirement could manage a home on the island. We've not been disappointed! The only difficult thing is leaving the Island from time to time...

Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted

You can decide for yourself, but "Little" Balboa is truly special. While part of what is commonly called Balboa Island, it is its own separate island across the "Grand Canal" and a second bridge. Originally planned to be a small island with casinos and hotels similar to Monaco; that concept did not prove feasible and more housing was added to Little Balboa Island in the 1920's instead. Somewhere along the line, the residents of Little Balboa got together and agreed to bury utility lines and add miniature light houses, making the well-located island all the more beautiful. The main island can't seem to agree on how to do similarly, but we're rooting for them!

Derfor er dette overnatningssted unikt

Casa la Piña is a custom home designed by a noted local architect and built with the finest of materials and craftsmanship in 2004. It incorporates the latest in technology including an elevator, four-zone air conditioning, and surround sound theatre system. This house was not built to be a "vacation rental"; it was built to be a primary residence. We have respected that philosophy by furnishing and maintaining our home with the same orientation to quality and good taste.

This is not your basic "beach house" rental; we like to think it is casual coastal living with a designer's approach. If you are looking for a beach house to trash for a week with an owner that won't mind, please look elsewhere. We were young once, and raised two great kids, so we completely understand the process. However, are now at a stage of life where we take care of and enjoy quality finishes that are well maintained, and we hope you do too!

With all that said, if you like the finer things in life, you will LOVE our home and its location. Short of being ON the water, it does not get any better anywhere on the island. We are a short walk to Marine Avenue’s retail amenities, with water views from all three floors, while on the nicest corner of the entire island - equi-distant and just steps to the water in three directions. One of those directions yields a public dock for fishing and/or boating.
