Near the Beach on Balboa Island. Just 3 houses away from the Beach. Beautiful, spacious upstairs 1 bedroom with a King size bed, plus a day bed (twin size bed with a twin size trundle bed underneath) in the living room. Lovely kitchen with dishwasher, refrigerator, gas stove and microwave. Television in the living room and in the bedroom. Lots of closet space. Great working space, and excellent WiFi. Private washer and dryer. Air conditioning. Spacious patio with gas BBQ grill.
I found the property to be very comfortable for my month long get away. I was working remotely during my stay and the wifi worked without a problem. Balboa Island is lovely and very walkable. I was able to walk around the Island to shopping and restaurants. I took the Ferry to the Balboa peninsula to walk on the beach and watch the sunset.
Wonderful apartment that feels like a private cottage
Cute apartment with a nice rooftop deck. Looks just like the pictures. Feels more like a cottage with the beamed ceilings in the living room. Comfy bed, fast wifi, pleasant kitchen and bathroom. Garage parking was great to have. Note that only smaller cars/suvs will fit. Excellent communication with the host. Will rent again!
Beautiful apartment. Appliances are new and work well. Beds are super comfortable. Everything is within walking distance. We had a fabulous stay and will come again
The apartment was lovely with nice upgrades and all needed amenities. It has a nice private patio and is close to the water and Balboa walking path. Just a short walk to the ferry. The bed was super comfortable and we enjoyed every minute of our stay.
Pictures donât do the place justice! This place was so close to balboa island and we loved the patio and being able to watch the sunset and also cook/barbecue! Definitely will be staying here again! Owner is very easy to contact and was very sweet!
The house was very comfortable, especially the large king bed. It was nice to have the option for A/C which isnât always available. The kitchen is well stocked and we appreciated having beach chairs and towels to use. Access to the garage was also a huge plus with limited island parking. The host was very attentive and friendly!
We loved our stay here, the accommodation was very comfortable and in a great location. Check in was easy and the host very communicative. Although our truck was too large to fit in the garage, we always found street parking nearby. Just a small thing to note, you are expected to wash and dry the towels before you leave which is a slight inconvenience as check out is 10 am.
However, we would happily stay here again.
This was my second stay - unit is very spacious with a nice outdoor deck area and is very clean and well equipped. Unlike a lot of units in this area this property has a full size washer dryer, garage parking and AC.
Loved the proximity to the back bay. The patio was great too. Special touches like the BBQ, and sturdy and comfortable couches and bedding were a plus.Garage parking was terrific too! Air conditioning terrific!! The host was very gracious and accommodating and easy to reach. We can't wait to stay again!!
Very nice upstairs 1 bedroom unit in a quiet area of Balboa Island. Very well equipped and owner is very responsive. King bed and linens were comfortable and top quality. Garage parking and AC were a bonus.
Overall the apartment was great! Clean & modern. A few items were missing from the kitchen (can opener, colander, measuring spoons & a clothes iron to name a few) but we managed. The outdoor space was wonderful! Wish we could've checked in a little earlier.
Our stay was great and the house was perfect for our needs. It was clean, had a great location and was just as advertised. Yes that is correct, we stayed here when Hurricane Hillary came through. Thought about going home early but then stayed. We had no issue and still had a great vacation. Thank you Pat
This place has modern upgrades and is very light and bright with many amenities, including super comfortable bed. Itâs just a 2 minute walk to a great coffee shop and a delightful, modern restaurant for lunch and dinner. Thereâs many other places to eat and shop that are just a 5 minute walk along the islandâs boardwalk. Having a garage for parking was a bonus. The owner is readily available for anything youâd need. I would definitely return to this VRBO.
This is a perfect location to explore Balboa & the surrounding area. Host is lovely & welcoming. Unit is clean, well stocked & the bed is very comfortable. Having the garage is a big plus (a large cars or truck wouldn't fit). We enjoyed walking the island in the am, walking to main st restaurants (10 min), taking the ferry (5 min walk). Quiet neighborhood. The unit is an upstairs back unit with 16 steps so not accessible for someone who is not mobile (we're 70 & had no problems but a wheelchair or inability to climb steps wouldn't work). We visit the area frequently & would definitely stay again.
This property is really nice. It's very close to the beach and just a 8-10 minute walk to downtown. It has a nice little sitting area deck where you can sit out or have meals. Guests should know that you're required to dump all garbage and wash & dry all towels before you leave. Not a huge deal, but a little more work than other rentals I've stayed at.
The host is very responsive and will promptly fix anything you need fixing. I believe it's a new listing, and while there were some minor things that needed maintenance, the host assured me that they will be addressed before the next guest. I'm sure the property will be a "5" for the next guest, but my rating reflects how my daughter and I experienced it as we first arrived.
This was a nice clean 2nd story back condo. There is garage parking if you have a smaller car or SUV. We were there on a busy holiday weekend and there was street parking near the front over the weekend.
The owner had excellent communication and actually texted and called us. That made it very easy to get questions answered. The above ground patio give a neat perspective and you can see around better.
Place is clean and nice and was close the bay beach if you want to play in the canal sand. We hung out there and the kids had fun.
The owner was very accommodating for our situation last minute. Thank you!
