We loved this place. The host was very responsive to my messages. And, the place itself - perfect location and very nicely laid out. Six of us were very comfortable. I'd stay here again in a second.

Hello John ,
Thanks for letting us know we haven't ever had anyone say anything regarding this so, I will check it out.
I don't know if this was your situation but if any doors were left open more than 5 min.(I am thinking the sliding door) then the system shuts down the Air Conditioning but the furnace will still blows air..
Home is in excellent condition and beautifully furnished. Location is conveniently close to shopping and dining. Host is very responsive and caring. We experienced a mechanical issue on Christmas Eve and it was resolved the next day. Would highly recommend this lovely spot.

The house was perfect for my family and spacious for all 7 of us. The location was wonderful for walking to shops and restaurants as well as the water. Ron was so quick to respond to any questions and accommodating for last minute construction happening right outside the house.

All Clean! Except for the grill out side was corroded with charbroiled cheese/meat.
We stay in the Newport Beach area often and this is definitely one of the best places we booked. Great location near restaurants and shopping! Beautiful unit and great host who doesn’t leave a huge list of “To Do’s” before check out! Will definitely try to book this property again!
We had a great stay on BI! The property is very clean and comfortable. The style and decor ia modern beach comfort. The kitchen is well appointed. It was perfect for two families of 4. Location is awesome, right off the Main Street. We had a great time!
A perfect location close to coffee shops & frozen bananas.The house was perfect for our group of 7. Tons of space with plenty of supplies. Ron was easy to work with & I can’t wait to stay here again.
