Super clean condo with great shower and comfortable beds. Loved having closets for storage and a nice patio to take in the days weather. Easy walk to downtown too.
Chase is a great host. The property is exactly as depicted. The kitchen is well equipped with pot, pans, dishes and utensils. Having private parking on the island is a gigantic plus. We were very comfortable during our week’s stay. Wouldn’t hesitate to come back.

Had a great stay, one of the best spots on the island
This was a high end luxury feel that was live-able! Very smartly designed. Extra comfy. Perfect location. Great value for Balboa Island stay. Very accommodating host and exactly as presented. It has it all, fireplace, a/c, heat, great appliances, comfy furniture and beds, very clean, outside bbq, nice outside deck space.
The property is ideally located near the South Bay Front with a nice beach and in easy walking distance to Marine for shopping and dining options. Our host Chase was very accommodating and helpful. The property was spotless upon arrival and just as depicted in the photos, quite comfortable for two people. It was so quiet at night and easy to sleep with the windows open for that fresh ocean air!
I loved my stay here. It was really cute and clean. I also appreciated all the storage. The owners really made sure everything was covered for your stay, like shower essentials, dishes, etc. They also made communication super easy and provided very clear instructions. My only complaint was the noise, which was not anything the owners could control. There were planes flying low at all hours and it was super loud. There is construction going on a nearby house, so there's lots of banging. I would absolutely stay here again and can't wait to do so!
We loved the location of this cottage. We walked around the island every night after our yummy desserts. Inside the cottage was spacious and very comfortable. Perfect for my husband and I. We loved the fireplace and the outside deck. We will definitely be back!
Super clean and super convenient location. It had everything we needed and then some for a six night stay. And the AC is a must have for September months!
The location of the apartment can’t be beat. It is only a handful of houses from the water and a short walk from downtown. If you don’t plan to leave Balboa you do not need a rental car. The place itself is laid out perfectly for a small family, friends or a couple. The beds are comfy, the bathroom nicely appointed, the living room is spacious enough for five to hang out around the fire. The kitchen has most everything you need to cook a simple meal. The only wish was to have more of a dining room set up on the deck rather than a sitting area. There are fantastic beach chairs and beach towels available which made her time by the water very relaxing. We did have a rental car and parking was a breeze. I will definitely be back again and cannot recommend this place enough !
We had a great stay at this cottage on the Island. It was so perfect for us! Having much more space than a just a hotel room, a fully stocked kitchen, even a Brita water pitcher in the fridge plus the outdoor deck was such a bonus for morning coffee and evening wine! Will definitely stay here again. The owner was so easy to work with also!
This is the second time that I have stayed at this property, and I loved it as much this time around, too. It is clean, cozy, well-located, and just all around great.
Communication was great with Chase. The reviews are very accurate. The cottage was fully equipt with everything you’d need. Super clean. Perfect for 2 people and a pup.
Great location. Close to Marine Avenue and restaurants and shops. Also close to the Ferry. We were able to do a lot of walking. Very comfortable with everything we needed. We enjoyed sitting on the deck.
We are older 55 and 62 we loved it very quiet at night which we like very nice restaurants we walked too which we like the beach right there met nice people we took our multi poo she was great so I’m glad because it was very pet friendly everywhere we went people fell in love with her communication with host excellent We will be back more often now that we have experienced this location
