Additional Information 🛠️:

Work in Progress: This unit is still undergoing some work, so you might notice things aren't perfect yet but we hope in the future this can be a great property for small group events.

Shared walls: This unit does have one shared wall, as this property is a duplex. The guest in the other unit is a long-term guest and hardly makes any noise. We do ask that you respect the 10 pm quiet time and turn off any music past that time. Thank you!

Please understand how close this unit is to a nature reserve. We are aware that there are lots of reviews stating pests, mice, etc. The unit is fully sealed on the inside and is well cleaned each time. Issues form when guests are constantly leaving the doors and windows open allowing for pests to get in. If you keep the doors closed the entire stay you will not encounter any of these issues.

We also ask you leave any issues or concerns with us directly via messaging, as negative reviews heavily impact our listing and don't relay information to our property manager so necessary repairs can be conducted.

Ok stay

This place has a great location in regards to the ocean. Other than that it was mid. It could use a bit updating. Everything was old and worn. We only felt comfortable in our rooms. The kitchen and especially living room looked worn. A once over with paint and updating would do this place a favor.

Newport Bch Vacay

My wife and I booked the property to enjoy beach/surf around Newport Bch/Huntington. Ideal location for both as you can drive to beaches in 15 minutes. The neighborhood is a quiet safe working class area. Costa Mesa is sizeable enough that all stores/restaurants are close . The property is indicative of the price point., basic but clean , everything you need and roomy. My only suggestion is work in the courtyard area is needed. The owner response was excellent for any questions needs. We met the shared house neighbor who is a nice lady. I'd rent again for a base accommodation for nearby areas.

Comfy, authentically local and convenient

We really enjoyed the property.We stayed here for a visit while the region was pretty busy, the OC Fair was going on, HB had the US Open, Long Beach had an outdoor music festival and accommodations in Northern OC were hard to find. On street parking was never an issue, even on garbage day.The property is quaint. It is not a luxury hotel. It is very much an authentic Costa Mesa experience. The owners have provided everything. Plenty of cutlery, dishes and cooking needs. The coffee maker was about as far into the kitchen as we got, but having the Keurig machine and also a drip-style coffee machine was fantastic!The furnishings are...well used. There is nothing wrong with that; this is not a 500/night hotel. I expected to find a couch that, while comfy, shows that it is a little older and has lived recently in a vacation rental. But the TV and provided streaming services made time on the couch, waiting for the bathroom just fine.The bathroom is all it needs to be. That heat fan would probably be a fantastic feature if you choose to stay during California's cooler months.The bedrooms were both very spacious, plenty of storage and closet space to put your suitcases out of the way. Ceiling fans and EVEN individual A/C units for each bedroom keep the property very comfortable in hot weather. The beds. The beds are very squeaky. This is my only "complaint" about this rental. A couple newer mattresses would add the final touches to a comfy, quaint gem of a property.
