Enjoy and relax in this classic beach 1 bed / 2 bath beach cottage on a single, ground floor that has been updated throughout. Perfect for small families on a budget that want to be 2 blocks from the beach in the classic beach community of the Newport Beach Peninsula.

Located less than two short blocks from the best stretch of beach in town one direction, and just steps from Channel Park in the other direction, all basic details have been planned and executed so that you can enjoy your stay. Probably the most visible feature is the front patio with a privacy barrier, providing a spacious indoor/outdoor mix of seating and entertainment as the patio blends into the living, dining and kitchen areas. Tastefully-appointed furnishings have been carefully chosen for a monochromatic setting that is relaxing, yet energizing at the same time: the perfect combination for any successful vacation stay!

Locals know the three-mile-long stretch with the harbor on one side and broad, sandy California beaches on the other as “the Peninsula.” The Balboa Peninsula has two piers with a view of a shoreline, surfers, and sunbathers spanning for miles. A walk straight down Main Street brings you to the historic Balboa Pavilion.
The Balboa Peninsula has many sit down restaurants and quick food stops for people hitting the sand for a day at Balboa Beach, and the variety of bars and live music makes the Peninsula a regional nightlife destination. Some of the places locals hang out for good seafood and a casual fun atmosphere are the Crab Cooker and Woody’s Wharf. Anglers can bring home dinner from one of the sport-fishing vessels and whale watching enthusiasts can see some of nature’s most beautiful creatures up close, as Balboa Peninsula rentals and adventure boats launch early and often. But a trip to the Peninsula wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the Balboa Fun Zone, where the Ferris wheel has stood for years!
Please be advised this is a strict NO SMOKING property. Please note that our properties may have electronic devices installed such as electronic locks, front door cameras, or noise monitors. There are no video devices inside the property.
