Great property, great location!

This is our second time visiting this property. Perfect location for a family friendly Cali beach experience. Things for kids to do and adults have options as well. Our property had nice size rooms, fully equipped kitchen and eating spaces, and a great patio overlooking the boardwalk and ocean. The owner was friendly, easily available and super helpful.Thanks Ed for a great visit.

We had an awesome staycation at this perfect beach house and can’t wait to come back! The home is immaculate with lots of nice touches…fluffy large bath towels, beach towels, beach chairs, bikes, comfy beds and couches, gourmet kitchen and the perfect large beachfront patio for morning coffee, afternoon cocktails and people/dog watching.The location is perfect, short walking distance to many great restaurants, fun zone and ferry,(which is dog friendly!). Having a garage parking space was icing on the cake, although we never had to drive anywhere. Sincere thanks to our wonderful hosts, Ed and Alicia.

This is a great location for families. Our 1 year old grandson loved the beach, grassy area and playground. We have rented in Newport/Balboa a lot, and this was the most well equipped kitchen yet. The only drawbacks were that the garage wasn’t deep enough for my Traverse, but my daughter’s RAV4 did fit, and the coin laundry is kind of inconvenient especially considering the cost of the rental.If you want to spend a lot of time in the water you may want to look closer to 15th street. The sand berm the city has built up in this section of the beach makes swimming/body surfing difficult.

Great location

This home was located in a very desirable area in Newport Beach near Balboa pier. Everything was in close, walking distance and the large grass area and beach in front of the house were perfect. The owners were very responsive and the home was comfortable and clean. Really enjoyed our stay here.

Great location

Just spent a week here with family. There were five of us and the house was perfect. We love the location liked having the grass out in front and our grandkids visited and the playground nearby was a plus. Plenty of food opportunities within walking distance which we love not having to get in the car and drive somewhere every night. We did a lot of walking and biking on the boardwalk and hanging out at the beach.

Newport Beach house

Our dates of our stay were changed by the owner. We were told we could cancel if we wanted but we decided to make the new dates work. Half my family could only be there 3 nights out of the 7 which wasn’t what we wanted. The place is in a great location. Ed was quick to help w anything we needed. Love the big patio and people watching. I also loved being right on the grass. The place itself could use some love especially in the kitchen. You have to pay for laundry which is in the garage and they gave us 2 rolls of TP for each bathroom which didn’t last long w 8 people. Garage is super small but most are in NB. Location is on the quieter side which we liked and close to a lot of businesses. Overall the stay was great and we would stay here again.

Beautiful Beach Front Condo

Our family loved staying in this beachfront condo. Wonderful location right by Balboa pier. Fun to ride bikes and walk along the boardwalk that runs right in front of the place. Also a five minute walk to the Balboa ferry. Lots of restaurants within walking distance and a nice 2 mile walk up to Newport pier. Wonderful, clean space for our family of six. Owner super responsive.
