We had a few issues with toilet and electrical and they were very quick to respond. The house is very large and the amount of silverware and cups/dishes need to be upgraded to accommodate large parties. We enjoyed both decks and the amazing rooftop view is 5 star!

We had a nice stay at the property. There were two issues we found when we checked in. I called the Property Manager right away and was told someone would be over soon to look at the issues. Nobody came that day. I had to call back the next morning and they finally sent someone out.This is no reflection to the house or the property manager. The house was great and had plenty of room. The rooftop decks were amazing.

House was in a great spot and very walkable to the beach and downtown balboa. It was clean and the house would respond within 24 hours. However, many things were not working or properly maintained. We would reach out to the host and they’d have someone out the next day to fix it which was great but then you are without a working toilet, or air conditioning, or shower, etc. Overall, great house and great location and we would recommend it.

Great location, amount of space and amenities. Access is easy, with key code. Also I like how they do a “no chores” concept where you just pack up and leave. So many offerings give you a list of 20 things you need to take care of or else face being assessed fees. Very responsive to text communication too.

Location was solid and the amenities were good as well. Would have appreciated an upgrade on the beds overall comfort. The house was clean and well prepped for our stay. Cannot say enough good things about how the Beachview went out of their way to accommodate us. Their efforts alone are worth 5 stars.

The house is a great space for 11 people! The location is also great. We easily found parking. The beds are on the hard side. It would be nice to have labels on what is in cabinets. The downstairs shower is difficult to operate. Overall a great place to stay for a large group!

When staying in a beach community, it's all about the location, and this place is in a great location. Both beach and boat access, within walking distance to the main area, markets, etc. The house is simply gorgeous; I will definitely come back with my family over the summer! The house has so much room! Thank you for such a wonderful time.
