Luxurious 3- Bed/2.5 Bath Tuscan-Style Resort Home
Picture yourself at this luxurious Tuscan-style resort home on beautiful Balboa Island! Situated on a light and bright corner lot, this home has it all – custom luxury finishes, dream-worthy amenities, and one of the best locations on the island. This spacious property features 3 bedrooms, 2 ½ bathrooms, and includes central air conditioning for your comfort.
Enter through custom glass double doors into the open-concept first floor—an ideal space for entertaining both indoors and out. The living room features a limestone fireplace and double French doors that open to a lovely patio with additional seating. The chef’s kitchen with butler’s pantry and wine cellar includes Viking Professional appliances, granite countertops, and is fully stocked with all you need. The dining table seats six, with three more seats at the kitchen bar.
Warm custom millwork, coffered ceilings, and imported tumbled travertine flooring make this posh home truly special. The first floor also includes a powder room and direct access to the garage, with parking for one vehicle in the carport.
Up the ornate staircase, the light-filled primary suite offers 5-star accommodations. Vaulted ceilings and custom millwork provide a grand atmosphere. The suite also includes a flat screen TV, retreat area with fireplace, and a private balcony with seating for two—perfect for morning coffee. The spa-like en-suite bathroom has a double vanity, marble mosaic flooring, frameless glass shower, and a jetted tub. A large walk-in closet offers ample space to unpack and settle in.
Two additional guest rooms and a full bathroom are also on the second floor. The first guest room includes a queen bed, hotel linens, flat screen TV, and closet. The second has a queen-over-queen bunk bed with the same amenities. The hallway bathroom includes a large double vanity, marble details, and a spacious shower.
The third—and most notable—floor is the expansive rooftop deck. With a dining table, sofa, armchairs, chaise lounges, umbrellas, and a fire pit, it’s the ultimate space for a summertime BBQ or evening cocktails under the stars.
This home’s unbeatable location makes it easy to walk everywhere. Across the street is Succulent Coffee Roasters, a local favorite, and Balboa Island Park is just down the block with summer concerts. The ferry is a 2-minute walk and offers quick access to Newport Landing, the Fun Zone, and waterfront dining. For beach days, the home is stocked with beach chairs, boogie boards, and two beach cruisers.
Experience the charm of luxurious island living at this stunning Tuscan-style retreat!

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you were happy with the location.
We’re sorry that the condition of the property did not meet your expectations. We take all guest feedback seriously and will continue working to maintain and improve the property for future guests.
This house is lovely, everything worked, was as picturedand the location is great. My only note would be that there is an apartment over the garage that is rented separately.While the facilities are not shared except the garage,the roof decks are adjoining. It wasn’t a problem for us, but prospective renters should be aware of that both has an option if you need additional space, and so that you weren’t surprised when you see a strange car in the carport.

Thank you so much for your kind review, Kim! We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the home, found everything as pictured, and loved the location.
We also truly appreciate your note regarding the apartment over the garage. You're absolutely right—it is a separately rented space, and while amenities like the garage and roof decks are not shared, they are adjacent. We do our best to be transparent about this in our listing, and your feedback is a helpful reminder of how important that clarity is for future guests.
Thank you again for staying with us, and we hope to welcome you back soon!
Warm regards,

My family and I traveled to Newport Beach and loved the location of this home. Easy walking distance to the ferry, and all of the islands offerings. Also, it was next to a great Mexican Restaurant, Todos Santos. Highly recommend these accommodations and will definitely attempt to stay there again in the future.

We went to Balboa Island for a family reunion. The house was in the perfect location and great proximity to all our events including beach, walks, rides on the ferry, and restaurants. The home was gorgeous; it was clean and felt like an extension of our own residences. We would definitely rent the home in the future!

For a family of 5, this was the perfect house and location! We walked and biked all over the island. The house is beautiful and had everything we needed for our stay. The beds were comfortable and the roof top deck was great to watch the planes go overhead. The Mexican restaurant across the street was an added bonus! We would definitely stay here again! Thank you!

Our favorite spot to eat was right across the street (Todos Santos), which has everything from morning coffee to fantastic dinners. Would come back
