Summary:
Stay in the heart of the Balboa Peninsula, directly across from the iconic Ben Carlson statue and Newport Pier. This spacious 3-bedroom beach home offers ocean views, multiple living spaces, and an unbeatable location just steps from the sand, the boardwalk, and some of Newport Beach’s most famous restaurants.
