My beach house the "Seaside Retreat" is a guest favorite with 4.97 out of 5 star review on Airbnb with almost 100 reviews over 3 years! You were regretfully my first ever VRBO guest and after your group trashed our beach house, you gave us a negative review too!! Your group broke the porcelain tiles in the living room, broke the pull out system for the trash can in the kitchen and left our beach house dirty with sticky stuff that were stuck to the floors and furnitures. Your guest insurance reimbursed us after they saw the pictures and videos taken immediately after you moved out which documented the damages you caused. You never complained about anything during your stay and my property has been a near 5 star on Airbnb platform for years. I am surprised to see that you left us a bad review two months after you stayed and did so after causing all that damage!

About the host

Hosted by Nooshin

Host profile image
We have always been outdoor people, from the beach to the mountain, California has been home sweet home for our family. Particularly, Balboa Beach was our go to beach for years before we purchased this vacation rental. Now, we are happy to be sharing it with the world.

Why they chose this property

One of the widest stretch of sandy beach is practically out the doorway. Just step out and enjoy the all day beauty and some of the most magnificent sunsets.

What makes this property unique

Perfect location. Once you park your car in the garage, you can walk to so many places within minutes. From the beach to restaurants and markets, or a short walk to the ferry that takes you the Balboa Island, you will not need a car to be entertained. Of course, a short ride would take you to other amazing places like Fashion Island, the famous ocean view outdoor mall or 20 miles to Disneyland. For a more complete list see my guide book.
