About this property
Sleeps 18 | Steps to the Beach, Shops & Eateries | Ocean Views, Patio, Fire Pit
Welcome to Sandy & Shelly! These two homes are located on the lower and upper floors of the same duplex, with a combined total of 8 bedrooms, sleeping 18 guests—an ideal option for family trips or groups looking to spread out.
Sandy & Shelly are nestled on the iconic Balboa Peninsula in the heart of Newport Beach. Beach access is right across the street, so you can have your toes in the sand within seconds. You’re also just half a mile from Newport Beach’s vibrant shops, trendy eateries, and local attractions, making it easy to explore all the area has to offer.
Welcome to Sandy! As you enter, the ground-floor unit greets you with an open floor plan that seamlessly blends the living, dining, and kitchen areas. The living area features a large, cozy sectional that invites relaxation and connection, while the sleek, fully equipped kitchen awaits with stainless steel appliances, white cabinetry, and a convenient dining table for enjoying home-cooked meals. The home offers three beautifully appointed bedrooms. The primary bedroom and Bedroom 2 each boast an Eastern King bed, TV, and a private ensuite bathroom, while a twin-over-full bunk bed and TV await in the third bedroom. An additional full bathroom ensures privacy and convenience for all guests.
Step outside to the expansive front patio, where the true magic of this home unfolds. Take in the ocean views as you gather around the fire pit table, complete with plenty of lounge seating for the whole crew. The grill and an outdoor dining table set the scene for dining alfresco with the salty sea breeze. From morning coffee to evening cocktails, the patio invites you to enjoy SoCal’s beautiful weather and experience outdoor living in style.
Welcome to Shelly! As you enter this second-floor retreat, you’ll be greeted by an open floor plan that seamlessly connects the living, dining, and kitchen areas. The inviting living room features a large, plush sectional, perfect for unwinding after a day at the beach, while the sleek, fully equipped kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances, white cabinetry, and a dining table ready for shared meals and memories. Five well-appointed bedrooms await for a restful retreat. Four bedrooms each boast an Eastern King bed, and TV, while the fifth bedroom offers a twin-over-full bunk bed and TV. Three full bathrooms ensure privacy and convenience for all guests.
Shelly’s outdoor spaces invite you to soak up the salty sea breeze and SoCal’s stunning weather. Admire the ocean view from the front balcony as you enjoy alfresco dining at the bar counter or fire up the grill for a sunset feast. In the back, a private deck offers a relaxing retreat where you can soak under the stars after a day of seaside adventures.
