Perfect Beach Getaway!

Our family of five absolutely loved our stay at Anne's property. The panoramic beach view alone was worth the price! Loved being close to many restaurants as well as the beach, but still found it to be relatively quiet and and peaceful at night. The home was fully stocked and we appreciated the little touches like dimmer switches on the lights and the availability of beach toys. We definitely hope to return!

Wonderful Beach Vacation

This property is right on the beach and very convenient to everything Newport Beach has to offer. We rented bikes, stayed for hours on the beach, and even enjoyed a bonfire right next to the Pacific Ocean. The rental is exactly as described. The kitchen is fully stocked which allowed us to do a few meals and avoid eating every meal out. I highly recommend this rental unit.

Perfect beach location

We came here with our exchange student from Pakistan. This cute beach house has a location that can’t be beat! You are literally across from the ocean and directly on the bike path that goes thru Newport. The views are amazing! The beds were super comfy. We stayed in upstairs unit so no little outside area to hang out in, but it was no problem for us. If you are looking for a fun relaxing Newport beach house, look no further. We would definitely stay again. Much better than a hotel.

Great experience......

Clean accommodations, responsive staff and absolutely beautiful area. The only "problem" was the stairs due to age of guests. That was of my own doing and we chose the upstairs unit. I would definitely stay here again, just in the downstairs unit. Thank you for the fabulous vacation.

Amazing location!

This was the perfect place for our family vacation. We could walk right out to the beach or stroll down to the Balboa Island ferry. So much to do at all times and the view out the windows was absolutely stunning!

Loved Every Minute of our California Beach Vacation!

We had an amazing week at this fabulous, beach front property! The views were breathtaking, the nightly bonfires on the beach will be treasured memories as will the breathtaking sunsets, ocean waves, bike and ferry rides, “cronuts” and street tacos!! Thank you Ann for being an amazing, responsive and generous host! We can’t wait for our next trip to Newport.

In the Heart of Balboa

If you're going to California, you might as well stay at the beach! Parking, especially for a beach house, wasn't as bad as you might think, but we only had the one mini-van to park. House was a bit warm our first night, but then we discovered the attic fan, which helped quite a bit.

Fun short stay at the beach

We had a fun time at this very ideal beach location. It was so fun to enjoy the boogie boards and bikes that were offered by the owner - little need for a car :) This property does not have air so the fans and cooler nighttime weather are very helpful. We were also grateful for the washer/dryer with so many wet towels and bathing suits - bring your own detergent. Thank you Ann for making this such an easy in & out trip!

Definitely ask all the questions!

First thing…there was no ac at this property. The stairs are very unsafe for children or anyone that is not very steady on their feet. There was trash from previous tenants still in the trashcans and items left in the refrigerator. I believe I had to pay a cleaning fee, yet I was required to take out the trash, load the dishwasher, and gather up used linens. Why pay a fee when I am required to do half the work? And obviously someone else’s work because it wasn’t done, yet I don’t want to be responsible for it. There were some hang ups due to timing on the property, that was disclosed…kind of. The view was completely covered with plastic wrap from exterior painting being done. That also affected any windows being opened for a breeze to cool it down in the house. This was a learning experience for sure.

Great property and great location!

Property was a hit for our long weekend in the area for my husband's sports tournament. It is close to many amenities, beach access, boardwalk and great food nearby. The property itself is clean and well kept with all the necessary things that one needs to feel at home while away from home. We had contact with the property owner during our stay and had prompt response and great customer service through the entire process. Highly recommend!

Ocean front property with great views

It was our first time visiting Newport. We loved the location of the property. We loved watching the ocean, beach, and boardwalk from our window. We stayed on second floor. The first floor had a patio. The second floor did not. We will look into staying on first floor when we visit next.

About the host

Hosted by Ann

Our parents purchased this home in 1969 to provide a beach home for my 2 sets of grandmothers to live in (dad's mom downstairs and mom's mom upstairs). This has been a three generation family gathering spot and we continue my parents' legacy of providing a space for families to gather and be together. It is an older beach house that is ready for a new generation of families and/or friends to make memories!

Why they chose this property

The location can not be beat! The Balboa Ferry and Balboa Pier, fishing, stand up paddle boarding at the bay front, a walk to arcades... all favorites for our family. But - the best - is a long sunny day at the beach with frisbee, football, friends, sand and fun!

Walk 4 blocks to rent a paddle board or kayak, take a harbor cruise or a boat to Catalina. One of our favorite past times, rent a cruiser bike and peddle the boardwalk to Huntington Beach or Lido Island.
