The nicest family sand and sea experience that the beach has to offer. We were surprised how really close to the beach and back it is. You can peek at the beach right from the living room, the ocean view balcony or sunset rooftop deck.

The whole place was nicely beach casual and such a pleasant surprise! There were everyday opportunities for us to enjoy everything the beach house has to offer and the best of beaches too. Purely, a well thought out and fun place to stay.

Bottom line: This is the most well thought-out beach accommodation we've ever stayed at and we are already planning to come back next summer too.

The beach house includes a huge private roof deck area which is good for entertaining, safe teen spaces, private coffee morning rituals, morning yoga or meditating alongside super views of sunsets and the surrounding local beach area.

A well-worn retreat. Just kick back 'round the place as the kids spent long days on the sandy beach, ride the provided local bikes all around town and make the most of the excellent beach location.

*****

Thank you to all our Guests for their continued words of kindness and my wish is to see families come back year after year. Happy times and honest relationships are the key to even greater value, between us both.

Do as other happy families have done, and book your nightly stay, beach week or even multiple week stay. You will be glad you did. While you're here, please enjoy our onsite guestbook and add to all the swell memories we've made, it's a hoot.

It's a genuine beach house value to help make your best family beach house plans a reality! Because it's not the poshest nor fanciest but a kind, spacious and clean family peninsula beach house accommodation with a casual decor of natural weathered interiors-exteriors blended together with the beach close atmosphere.

A true classic beach house with many amenities and all the wonders just being at the beach can offer too!

Weekly/Monthly discounts.

Celebrated my granddaughter’s 21st birthday. The house was in a great location. Walking distance to grocery store, restaurants, beach and Newport pier. We had an awesome time and the owner was very accommodating and knowledgeable of the area and things to do. I would definitely recommend this vrbo and also stay there again.

This house was perfect for our family. There was plenty of beach gear including coolers, wagons, boards, chairs, bikes and more. The house had everything to cook. The beds were comfortable. Location is close to sand, shops, restaurants, and the only grocery store on the peninsula. The roof top deck was a nice bonus. Steve is a great host, easy to communicate with and friendly. We recommend this beach house!

Perfect Beach Getaway

We loved our time at the Newport Peninsula Beach House. Perfect location with so much to do, see and eat within walking distance. Steve was so helpful from the time of booking to the time we checked out. The house has everything you need to enjoy your time away from home, so packing was a breeze. We're looking forward to our next vacation here!

Fun at Disney and the Beach!

Steve was a fantastic host. His property was very clean and comfortable- just what you want for that classic beach house experience. We were only 30 mins or so away from the Disney parking lots - Mickey & Friends or Pixar Pals lots, so a quick tram ride to the parks from there. Then we were only a very short walk from a wonderful beach. Grocery store (Pavilions) and places to eat were also a very short walk away. We really enjoyed Woody’s Diner for breakfast. You won’t go wrong staying here at the beach house!

The house was perfect for our family of 10 ranging from 7 to 54. Easy walk or bike ride to many places and so many things provided. We had a huge van to haul all of us so provided parking didnt work, but Steve helped us find spots.

Bachelorette Party

AMAZING! Steve provided more accommodations than we expected and exceeded them. Everything was clean and cozy. A great distance from the sand and beach. Lovely neighborhood. The party was able to have a great time indoors and outdoors, and the whole experience was enhanced by our surroundings. All of us would love to return here whenever we plan to stay in this side of town again.

Hosted by Steve

Host profile image
We are just a little local Newport Beach family. Open. Friendly. Smart. Always considerate. Honest and hyper-authentic. We are blessed to live with a certain gratitude in our lives.

We have always made it our expressed interest to respect the valuable time of the families who have stayed at the Newport Family Peninsula Beach House by insuring its many functions, its usability, accessories, cleanliness and most importantly its house-ability and personable rustic beach-chic nature.... and charm.

Freedom and respect is the key to long endless summer days... from beach to BBQ and from sand to showers and back again... you will love touching and living the beach life. Be good to it, and it will be good to you.

Why they chose this property

We absolutely love the life in very specific and traditional area of Newport Beach and especially on the Balboa Peninsula. Where every street has it's own unique character and every block its own personality.

As good friendly people, this prime location is simply perfect for us, our friends, our family and for the 'little surf grom' children. Oh yeah, we are definitely positive you'll agree and perhaps come to appreciate by sharing in its charming rustic beach chic discovery.

What makes this property unique

While not the fanciest place the peninsula might offer... the place is just so accommodating, clean, beachy, cozy and family friendly with all the little extras that help to make each beach day possibly the best. See our honest reviews.

The super prime location of The Newport Family Peninsula Beach House is situated within reach of all things beach(sand and sun), harbor(sailing), channel(paddle boarding), island(kayaking), parks(playgrounds) and recreation(use your imagination.)

It is a matter of fact, that we provide the kind of beach house we'd prefer. It is a fact that every last amenity has been carefully thought out. Its is a fact that your decision to stay at the Newport Family Peninsula Beach House is the best one.

While not perfect, yet perfectly accommodating... we consistently aim to meet an imagined beach stay and often surpass expectations. It's the Newport Family Peninsula Beach House that provides the rustic beach chic canvas and its the wonderful families year after year that truly make it so colorful to be in Newport Beach during the summertime or any time of the year.
