LUXビーチフロントカサデバルボア229-ベストロケーション/ビュー

Thanks Darah. I see your reserved for next year same time same Casa. Hard to beat those news, property, and location.

Thank you. So glad you enjoyed.

Thanks so much. So glad you enjoyed.

Although the ocean beach is a block away (short beach blocks), the water and sand are only 30ft away for Mothers Beach. The views, in our opinion and others, is probably one of the best in Newport Beach if not the best. Views are of the beach, bay, boats, Lighthouses (restaurant and play park at Marina Park), Newport Coast, Fashion Island, and the mountains in the background. Turn to the right and there's the lifeguard stand for 19th St. by the first pier. Glad you appreciated it. Hope you return often.

Thank you! So glad you found us.

I reached out to Katy to see what we could have done to earn a five star review (4 is great but we know we can do better!). She stated" The place and location were a total 5, the only reason for 1 star less was the confusion during booking. I booked on Homeaway and was the(n) requested to pay on a different site and the fee on the other site did not account for the 1/2 down." VRBO/Homeaway no longer pay owners or managers deposits or final payments when you pay. We are not paid until sometime after check-in. Our system automatically sends out notices of payment due if we are not paid. We send all VRBO/Homeaway/Expedia reservations an email explaining this, to make all their payments where booked, and to ignore our requests for payments if booked elsewhere. Katy did not open her email. We try very hard to inform guests during the process of reserving a vacation home. Thanks for the feedback Katy!!

Thanks so much. We look forward to your return.

Thank you!!

Thank you! Glad you found us. Interestingly, if you want the ocean too...it is often easier to access the ocean water from our bay beachfront location due to the width of the beach elsewhere...crazy but true! Hence we say...the best of both worlds!! Hope to have you back soon!

Thank you! We hope to have you back again soon too!

Thanks Faith!! We can't wait to have you back. Happy Holidays!

Thank you Linda! It is the PEFECT location...and the views!! Best in Newport Beach. We hope you have dates in mind for your return!

Thanks so much for your kind words. Actually...it's only about a 2 minute walk across one street for the ocean. Much easier to get to the ocean water from here than most ocean front homes because the beach is so wide in those areas. Here, the water and boardwalk are the closest. That's why we are the best of both worlds!...bay and ocean!! Glad you enjoyed. Hope to have you back soon.

Thanks so much! We're so happy that we were part of your families graduation memories!! We hope that your guests simply took a pic of our signage for future stays! We're very easy to find!

Thank you! Hope to have you return soon!

Thank you for your kind words. Unfortunately, although we state that our AC is portable you turned on the heater and closed up the place. The air needs to move for maximum comfort. We provide plenty of fans, installed new high efficiency ceiling fans, installed large solar roof vents to move air quickly out of the attic, which we had heavily insulated (walls too). Most homes here don't have any of this. We also provide a portable AC unit that works very very well for the odd week or so the temps may be higher. Families that have frequented the beach here for decades understand and know what to expect. Virtually ALL rentals in Newport Beach do not have AC. The reason? Moderate temps and the fact folks are here to have doors and windows open to the sea. During your stay the temps at night were 70 (a few days dropped into the 60's) and most of the time during the day in the low to mid 80's. during the day.

I'm sorry you feel that this was your experience, but it is not quite accurate, nor is it indicative of the area, the beach, nor Newport Beach who spends $56,000.00 per homeless person a year. Due to the Supreme Courts recent decision (June 2024) to give rights back to the city regarding the homeless, the city has been able to develop, enact, AND NOW ENFORCE, NEW (within days after your departure) codes and ordinances regarding the homeless to prevent sleeping, blocking, camping, etc. .anytime of day ...on and or in... any public space including the beaches, sidewalks, benches, courtyards, streets, etc. Because of the new codes enacted just days ago, they have already seen a reduction of 25% of homeless within days. That leaves the city with about 50 homeless in the entire city and that will be reduced as well. This may actually help force the homeless to accept the help they need. During your stay. No one was sleeping on the beach at night. I know..I was there for nearly a month. The police swept/sweep 3 times throughout the evening after the beach closes at 10PM..each night. There was one person on the beach during the day(s) you were there ...sleeping in a sleeping bag. One. This person wasn't doing fentanyl. Nor did they bother anyone. This is a moot point now as they no longer will be able to sleep on the beach or anywhere else on public property. Our beach, Marina Park 19th St Bay beach (Mother's beach), is a very lovely, popular, fun (children's play park midway at the red/white lighthouse), and very safe beach for families and people of all ages. The policies that I believe you reference as horrible, are other city codes that regulate the number of guests in a unit (can't have 20 people staying in a 2 bedroom) and restricts noise after 10PM. This is for the protection, enjoyment, and safety of visitors and residents alike. Every rental, and their guests, are subject to the same policies to be enforced, at the risk of fines and losing their permit to rent, even if they don't pass that information along to the guest as we do.

Thanks so much Lori-Lynn! In addition to the Garage...there is PLENTY of parking both free and paid right here due to the proximity of the beach and park. Parking 101 is the info we send out with tips on links for parking and to secure a permit if you wanted to. Glad you enjoyed! Hope to see you back soon!!

Hi Michelle, Sorry for your experience. It is not typical for our little area. I contacted the city and they are picking the trash up later and no longer using the "beep" feature to back up. Since we are located at the beach we have once a week sidewalk cleaning with a blower (Wednesday's) which is necessary to remove sand to prevent slippage. On the ocean boardwalk the city uses a small street sweeper at 6AM every morning for the same reason. During your stay the city happened to install new plants and the blowers were here several days in a row. Again, not typical. All of our reviews will reflect our guests experience of the quiet family neighborhood we have. It is one of the quietest on the peninsula and yet it is steps to the bustling shops and restaurants. We are certain you will experience this upon your return. Happy Holiday's! Pam

Thank you. We appreciate you taking the time. Glad you found us!

Thanks so much Adam. We are so very glad you enjoyed our special area. We hope to have you back soon. Pam
