The house was excellent so was the view and easy access to the beach had to wait 40 minutes to check in. I just think that the cleaning people are a little overwhelmed and they do a very efficient job.

Response from VrboOwner on 29 Sept 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We always strive for a seamless check-in, and we sincerely apologize that the property wasn’t fully ready until 3:20 PM, resulting in a 20-minute delay past our standard 3:00 PM check-in time. We take great pride in our deep-cleaning standards, which include fresh slipcovers on the furniture for every arrival. Occasionally, a thorough turnover takes a few extra minutes to ensure everything is perfect. As you mentioned in your message to us, you arrived early a little after 2:00 PM, which unfortunately made the wait feel much longer. While we love accommodating early check-ins whenever possible, we do need until 3:00 PM for our team to deliver the high standard of cleanliness our guests expect. We appreciate your kind words about our hard-working cleaning crew and hope to welcome you back for a flawless stay in the future.

Enjoyed a nice Christmas getaway here. Kitchen was very well-appointed and we were able to cook nice meals during our stay. House was very comfortable and nicely decorated - lots of thoughtful touches. It rained quite a bit during our stay, so the large covered patio overlooking the bay was a welcome feature! Enjoyed time on the water and had many meals at a variety of excellent restaurants close to the home. Would definitely recommend this Vrbo stay.

Views from the bottom floor are amazing. Building you see is no big deal. Steps from the bay side beach. For families with small kids the patio is great for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Street is extremely quiet and manicured with palm trees. It is well worth the stay.

This condo was just steps away from the sand on the bay side. Peaceful and serene the entire time. The outdoor patio was great place to gather while enjoying the beach air. The kitchen was well stocked with anything needed for cooking. However, if you wanted to eat out, restaurants and shops were in walking distance close by. Communication was excellent and response time was quick. We enjoyed our stay.

Super cute house! Very close to restaurants and stores... you are across the street from a lovely little beach. Unfortunately there is also a public restroom on that beach and it is right across the street from the house. This attracted some interesting beach goers.

Wonderful Stay

The property was perfect for two couples, just across a quiet street from the local beach, within super easy walking distance of restaurants and shops, it was remarkably convenient. The covered patio offered a wonderful space to spend time together in a relaxed environment. The condo was nicely decorated and well equipped with everything you could ask for, including beach chairs, umbrellas, and even a small lamp to take outside. We look forward to staying at this property again in the future.

Nice stay.

Very clean with modern decorations. Quiet neighborhood with nice outdoor patio area. Location was within walking distance from beaches on bay and sea side. Also close to Newport Pier with shops and restaurants. Some updates are needed for the air conditioner and security locks/bars to leave windows/sliders on ground level cracked for night time air flow. All in all we had a very nice stay and would stay again.

Thank you for your review. Although 4 stars is great we strive for 5 stars. It sounds like you were actually turning the heater on as this unit...like almost all on the peninsula...does not have AC. There is a portable AC unit in the rare event needed like this past August. There are locks on the sliders. Most folks are comfortable with leaving their sliders open to the back courtyard. We are in a very safe area. Someone would literally need to go through two gates and 60-80ft to access the sliders directly from the exterior. Not easy to do. We will, however, order bars to put in the threshold...it's the first time someone mentioned this. Thanks again.

Best Birthday Trip

We came to Cali for our sons 5th birthday trip. It was the best spot for easy access to the beach. Mostly quiet except for our neighbors next door as soon as it got dark. Beach party life so that's OK. Host was very accommodating for our early arrival. We will definitely book again!

Exceeded our expectations!

If we could live here we would! It was absolutely wonderful. Everything was better than we expected. Perfect location, literally 10 steps and you are in the sand. We had our children 10 and 3 with us and the park at the beach (right across the street) was perfect for them to play at while my husband and I enjoyed the sunshine. We rented bikes and rode around the island. Great restaurants are close by (make sure you check out the Crab Cooker!). Previous to this we were in Maui at the Fairmont in a villa, we would hands down take this place any day over that. It was wonderful, we will definitely be back!

Very nice rental! Amazing deal.

You won't be disappointed with this rental! To start, upon arrival the house was very clean and well stocked with towels, kitchen/cleaning supplies, and just about everything you would need throughout your stay. The appliances were industry quality Jenn Air that I wish I had in my house. Goes to show you how much effort the owners put into making sure you have a great stay. The location was fantastic. Very close to the bay and ocean side beach. Restaurants, bars, and the Balboa pier in close walking distance. There is a park with basketball courts and play area for the kids a block away. Even though there is a coffee pot in the house I enjoyed the walk down the street to the convenient store for a morning coffee and beach trail walk to kick start the day. We had a great time and plan to return again in the near future.
