Staying at The Dock was a delight. It was perfect for our family of four with two teenagers. Holly is easy and accommodating. Communication is fast and problem solving. The location is convenient to SoCal adventuring. We were comfortable and lacked nothing for our stay. We will happily stay here again for future trips.
Really enjoyed my stay at the Dock. The property was very clean and well stocked, especially in the kitchen. Holly was very responsive to all my requests and available whenever I had a questions. I strongly recommend this property!!
The Dock had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Great location and the host, Holly, was so helpful. We hope to return to the Dock next summer.
Excellent location just two blocks from beach, restaurants, stores. The house is very clean and well maintained. Our host Holly was very nice and easy to get in contact with. We had a wonderful week and would definitely stay again.
Great spot close to the beach and walking distance to plenty of restaurants and bars. Holly met us at the house when we checked in. She gave us some ideas of places to check out in the area and made sure we were all squared away with the necessary info for the house. Clean and comfortable spot with plenty of space to hangout. Nice area with friendly neighbors. Would definitely stay here again!
We loved this property - clean and the perfect amount of space for 4 people. Wonderful location - close to beach and shops and restaurants! Would highly recommend!

Our first visit to Newport Beach, and The Dock was perfect for our family of four. We loved the location and proximity to the beach. We hope to return to The Dock soon!

Thank you for returning The Dock and being ideal guests! We appreciate your care of our home and thoughtfulness to our neighborhood. With the pressure on short term rentals in NPB and beyond, great guests like you are essential to the future of short term renting.
I loved this place! The reviews are accurate. The host was wonderful, communicative, and helpful. The property was beautiful, clean, and well-kept. I loved the location—not too close to the high-summer beach crowds, but not too far for a quick walk to the sand. I'd move in if I could figure out how to do it. Thanks for a great stay!
The Dock is beautiful. It has been renovated with all the right touches and maintains a unique style. It is close to the beach, the shops and restaurants. It is fully equipped and made our stay most enjoyable.

About the host
Hosted by Holly Wetherholt
Our family has called Newport Beach home for more than 25 years. We personally manage the property and live a few blocks away. Close enough when you need us and far enough away for your privacy.
Why they chose this property
We chose this property because of the location, location, location! We like to be able to park our car and walk places. Everything you need is conveniently located within a short walk. Our family loves the beach and the bay. Whenever life gets too hectic, a little walk with a beautiful sunset puts everything into perspective.
What makes this property unique
The Dock is the back unit of a Newport Beach classic duplex situated in a great community. You will never run out of places to go or things to do in the local area.
