Acogedora cabaña en Balboa Island: verano semanal; primavera/otoño/invierno mensual

Thank you for your lovely review. I so enjoyed having you as a guest for seven weeks in December and January. And it truly warms my heart that you have returned for another stay at my cottage. Balboa Island is such a special and friendly place.

Thank you for your wonderful review. You were all so such a pleasure. I’m so glad it worked out to give your family an extended island “vacation” while your home was under renovation. You are always welcome to return for an island stay. Take care and enjoy your summer!

Hi Susan - Thank you for the warm review. There aren't many cottages remaining on the island so I am always happy to treat my guests to a special bright and airy beach experience -- and the upgraded comfort of AC too. Susan, I hope you return again next summer. Please note that prime months of summer 2026 are almost booked. So don't wait long. Take care. - Kari

I so glad you and your friends had such a fun time at my cottage and on the island. I am sorry to hear you struggled with the Wifi. I wish you would have let me know since your issue could be quickly solved. (Running 3 iPads, 3 iPhones and laptops all at once can stress any bandwidth). After you checked out and told me of your problem, I thoroughly tested my WiFi, ran diagnostics and confirmed with Spectrum that my service was without interruption and that my NetGear Orbi Mesh Home System tested out perfectly with excellent signal strength. I took my iPad, laptop and iPhone over and all worked perfectly with excellent speed. Anyway, I so happy you had the "funnest time of my life" -- Can't beat that! But I'd love you and your friends to come back next summer and try. Ha!

HI Dustin, Thank you for your review. Looking forward to having your family return next year.

Hi Patti, I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay at my cottage. I do hope you return next year. Enjoy the rest of your summer. - Kari

Hi Emily - Thank you for your kind words. It has been a pleasure to host you and I look forward to you returning next year. 

HI Judith, I am so happy you had a great time on the island and that you were able to extend your stay a few extra days for a full week at my cottage. It always seems to take a few days to slip fully into vacation mode. I look forward to your return. Best, Kari

Hi Gail, Thank you so much for your kind words. I am so happy that you and your family loved my cottage so much that you came back a couple weeks later for a mini-vacation! And now you are coming back again next summer! That warms my heart. And I do hope you come back every summer. Until then, Kari

Thank you, Rojon, for the very nice review. I hope you return to my cottage next year for more fun. - Kari

Hi Linda! Thank you for the great review. I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay at my cottage and had such fun adventures! I look forward to your family's return. Enjoy your summer. - Kari

HI Billi - I so enjoyed meeting you and your family. It looked like you were having such fun on your SoCal adventure. I love Corona del Mar beach and am happy you had enjoyed the waves and water (so warm!). I do hope you stay longer next time. There is so much more to see -- hiking Crystal Cove, biking to Huntington Beach and beyond, bonfire on beach and on and on. And I'd be happy to give you more suggestions. Enjoy the rest of your summer! Kari

Hi Suzanne! Thank you for the amazing review. I'm so glad you and your daughters came back this year and look forward to your return next spring. Have a fun summer! - Kari

Rob & Jasmine, Thank you. With the new restaurants and other new additions on Marine Avenue, I'm glad you were able to take full advantage of my cottage's great location. And the garage parking is especially important during the busier summer months. I would love to have you and your sweet pooch back for another stay. - Kari
