A one-of-a-kind, man-made treasure, Balboa Island is a gem whether you drive, walk, bike or take the Balboa Island Ferry to the island. Balboa Island’s Marine Avenue is home to chic coastal shops featuring unique nautical designs, stylish beach fashions, art and jewelry. It’s also home to quaint Balboa Island restaurants and bistros serving up a variety of dishes bursting with flavor. The selections on Balboa Island go beyond the local fresh seafood of the day with flavors of Italian, Mexican, and French-Swiss mixed in to the culinary choices.

There may be nothing more iconic than the island’s two famous desserts, the Balboa Bar and Frozen Banana. The local sweet tooth treasures have been mainstays for nearly 75 years, and have been imitated and replicated, including on the hit TV show “Arrested Development.” The tasty treats are dipped in chocolate and covered with a variety of coatings from nuts and sprinkles to cookie crumbs.

If you want to visit the DISNEYLAND RESORT area, our property is located just under 20 miles to the resort and it's two main parks - DISNEYLAND and DISNEY'S CALIFORNIA ADVENTURE. Make sure you check out STAR WARS LAND! After a great day at the parks, you can return back to your beach front oasis, refresh, relax, and take a stroll down to the beach.

If you are interested in the Laguna Beach PAGEANT OF MASTERS during July, this is a fantastic place to stay. Lyft or Uber is the way to get to the event. You can enjoy a nice glass of wine on the patio before your ride takes you to Laguna Beach.

Additional local attractions include Disneyland, Knott’s Berry Farm, Aquarium of the Pacific, South Coast Plaza, and the Fun Zone!

Great Location
We had our first stay on Balboa Island and this place did not disappoint. The host was great to work with and the place is very comfortable. It was nice having a place with A/C as well as a reserved area to park. We had an SUV car rental and had plenty of space to park. We had everything we needed while staying there and the patio is so nice to sit out on during the day and very private. The location is great, just right down from where the ferry comes in. We really enjoyed walking around the island every morning and the shops and restaurants are all very good. We are already looking forward to our next trip back!

Great place on Balboa Island
We were participating in a paddling training camp at the Newport Aquatic Centre. It was a very comfortable space for 2 adults but could have fit 4 if needed. We really appreciated the well-equipped kitchen as we were cooking healthy meals at home. Property manager was very responsive. Only took advantage of the included e-bike rental one day because we were otherwise busy - it was a wonderfully fun way to explore the area.
