Fantastic beachfront location! Our family rented Units A and B and would stay again. Steps from the boardwalk, with convenient on-site parking and a popular surf spot directly out front. Despite reports of Balboa storm erosion, the beach here was unaffected during our stay.Check-in instructions were excellent, but a smoke alarm was blaring upon arrival. Management promised assistance, but nobody came until the next day. They did repair damaged screens. Some rooms appeared to have missing smoke detectors, and the upstairs microwave didn't work.There is NO AC, although ample fans are provided. Opening first-floor windows raised security concerns, and one bedroom lacked a screen, allowing flies inside. Management provided a fly swatter. The garage closes, but its side door doesn't lock, so secure valuables.Bring beach towels! The listing said towels provided, but beach towels aren't included. Management kindly delivered some after our misunderstanding. Kitchen supplies were plentiful, including cookware, laundry/dishwasher detergent and trash bags.Bathrooms and kitchen could use some TLC. Overall, we'd absolutely return for the location and family accommodations. However, given the price, don't expect luxury or to be pampered. You're paying for incredible beach access, parking and the Newport experience, not upscale accommodations. With better upkeep, this property could be outstanding!
