Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Robin Svendsen or Toni DiDominicus
Hi, We are Robin and Kenneth Svendsen, long time Balboa Island residents currently living in the Washington D.C. area. Robin was born and raised in Southern California and Kenneth in Denmark. We love Balboa Island and enjoy early morning walks around the island, late morning paddleboarding or kayaking, and early evening strolls before retiring to the solitude of the house. Balboa Island is a truly magical place all year long! We are sure you will enjoy your stay!
Why they chose this property
115 Onyx is an original Balboa Island cottage built in 1930 and owned by only 4 families. Onyx Avenue, just one block off Marine Avenue (the main street) is an original street with many older homes. This home is perfect for a lovely stroll around the island and to the main street for a morning cinnamon roll and cup of coffee or early dinner at sunset.
What makes this property unique
This home offers original high beamed ceilings which gives an open quality to the living space. Large windows and french doors offer an inside out feeling downstairs, while the warm wood and high beams upstairs create a cozy atmosphere in the evenings. The views to the bay and the open, airiness of the space creates a beachy atmosphere all year long! Our personal favorite time of the year is in the off season where the sun is still warm and the island is quiet with locals on their morning walks or an early evening paddleboard! In the evenings, a glass of wine or a cup of tea on the patio before retiring to a good movie and even a fireplace if weather requires!
