About the host

Host profile image
We are a family of 4 that loves to travel. All of us love outdoor activities especially in the water. We love Newport beach and all that it has to offer.

Why they chose this property

We love to go to Newport and hang out at the beach. We wanted some place we could visit every summer and build family memories. It was important to find some place that was in a great location and we could count on being clean and well maintained. I think we found it!!

What makes this property unique

We love this location! We are able to ride all the way to the Wedge at the tip of Balboa in one direction or ride to Huntington beach if we go the other direction. Being away from the pier, parking lot and boardwalk gives us a little more peace and quiet and privacy. Being near 51st keeps us from getting caught up in the traffic that goes along with being further down the peninsula. When we walked into the main room with the high ceilings we knew this was the place. The whole family can hang out together with out feeling squished!
