Thank you for the fantastic stay. Toni the Property Manager was very responsive and even offered for us to check in a bit early. The house is conveniently located near food and shops and of course the bay front. The house is full of charm and checked most of our boxes.

Perfect Wedding HQ
Fabulous property on the island which serves as HQ for our son’s wedding at the church on Marine Street. Also hosted Thanksgiving dinner there, two days before the Saturday wedding. Awesome cottage, plenty of room, roaring fireplace upstairs, open beam ceilings, comfy bed, close proximity to all the island offers.

Great Property and Great Location!
We really enjoyed our stay here! This property is close to many things to do in the area and many of them within an easy walking distance. The beds were really comfortable and there was plenty of space for us.

Another relaxing vacation on Balboa Island
Our group of 6 adults fit nicely in this spacious home. It was well appointed and the toys were a huge bonus. Not having to lug our bikes down was a treat. I would stay again anytime.

Classic, Comfortable Home with Great Location
Full of character, this classic home was comfortable, clean, and perfect for our family college graduation stay. Beds were great, renovated bathrooms charming, and the dining table and downstairs living area lend themselves to actual conversation! Manager was friendly, super helpful, and we had no issues on arrival (and we're picky). Everyone in our group thought the location - one block off of the main street (Marine) and steps from the boardwalk, sand and harbor views was perfect (and we have stayed on the island 4 other times). Would stay here again in a heart beat.

Perfect Girls getaway
Ever year my girlfriends and I do a trip together. We usually go to Flagstaff. This year we choose Balboa Island.
My husband and I use to live in the Island and just love it.
I found this house and was so happy I did. It’s adorable and so very cozy.
Robin was great and this house will not disappoint.
We will be back next year!!!

The Island Cottage was exactly as described, great location, and completely met our expectations!
We stayed at the Island Cottage for 4 nights for a family reunion. The location on Balboa Island was perfect for us--half block to water, couple blocks to the Island's Main Street with shops and restaurants, and a short walk down to the ferry over to Newport Beach. Toni was wonderful with information and suggestions, and we felt right at home. We had my 2 year old grand niece and it was very child friendly. There is a lovely back yard with great grill and everything you could need to make it a great beach vacation. Really, one of the best experiences I have had with rentals!

Fun time in Balboa
We had a great stay with our kids and grandkids The house was close to the beach and downtown
Pro: location, number of rooms and baths, upstairs family area, kitchen equipment was great many cooking utensils and dishes. Dish waster was fantastic as was the washer and dryer. The house was easy to keep clean and well decorated for families. Lots of equipment for ocean fun paddle boards, bikes, kayaks.
Con: air conditioner condenser was very loud for anyone staying in the downstairs bed room. We had to turn air off to sleep. Electric stove top knobs are confusing and didn’t seem to work at times. Some delayed maintenance especially the windows
Safety: the stair spindles are very widely spaced and dangerous for kids under 5
Over all this property is just what we wanted and the hosts are fabulous to work with. I would stay here again

Best stocked VRBO! Spacious/private backyard!
We really enjoyed our stay. It had everything from spices to pots and pans (no scratches). It even had a full drawer of Rubbermaid containers for your leftovers. The garage had bikes, lifejackets, Boggie boards etc with a full-size washer/dryer. The backyard was spacious and private with half of it covered in case of rain/too much sun. There is a full-size parking space behind the house. Short walk to restaurants and the market. Wilma's had the best Eggs Benedit! There were plenty of extra towels and blankets. We were there for a burial at sea and had several houses on the Island rented for the entire family. Everyone thought our house was the best! Toni was excellent to work with, she responded to texts in minutes and met us there upon arrival and walked us through the house. She even held a parking space for us right in front of the house since it's easier to unload your car from there. Can't beat the customer service! We will be staying there if we ever get that way again. Thank you!

We had the most delightful time!
This home was the perfect mix of locale, convenience and Balboa charm!
After many years, we came home to Newport for a memorial. And “home” it was! A total of eight of us stayed here for a week in June and never once felt crowded. The house had an open feel and was so inviting. We loved the old Balboa charm mixed with the new. Beds and linens were comfortable and all the bathrooms updated. The two different living areas were also comfortable and relaxing. Outdoor patio was perfect for breakfast and after dinner drinks. Dining table was large enough for all of us. Kitchen had everything we needed and more! Just an fyi if you are noise sensitive: All Balboa and Newport Beach residents experience noise from jet traffic at John Wayne OC airport starting at 7am. Also the A/C can be a bit noisy but lovely to have from time to time. That said, both sounds were background noise to us! The location was terrific. We loved being just a few doors down from the water and a block from Marine (the main street with lots of shops and restaurants). It was great having laundry. Extra bonus was parking in the back! Toni, our host, was a terrific communicator both over the phone and via text.
I think it says it all that we can’t wait to go back and are now planning our return!!!

This house was perfect for our group, a family with 3 young adult children. Comfortable group space and bedrooms/baths that allow for personal space. The beds are great and the house overall was very comfortable. We made good use use of the bikes and the paddle boards. The location is great for access to the water and the Main Street. Recommmended.

We rented this house for a quick weekend trip for a family wedding. The four bedrooms were ideal for our needs and the indoor and outdoor living spaces were fantastic. The house was clean and the decor was perfect. The property manager was very nice and super helpful with parking when we arrived. The house is just off the water and is a quick two block walk to all the shops, restaurants and market. The restaurants we went to had great food and service. Highly recommend this property!

Seamless, easy and real vacation time.
Toni was great to text and respond, bought propane for bbq at rite aid in Corona del Mar. Walked the Island, rented a battery boat from Newport Duffy ( second time) two hours is perfect). This is a real beach house, it's old, old school and perfect for what the use intended. This is not the four seasons, it's a beach house getaway, we loved it.

Hi, We are Robin and Kenneth Svendsen, long time Balboa Island residents currently living in the Washington D.C. area. Robin was born and raised in Southern California and Kenneth in Denmark. We love Balboa Island and enjoy early morning walks around the island, late morning paddleboarding or kayaking, and early evening strolls before retiring to the solitude of the house. Balboa Island is a truly magical place all year long! We are sure you will enjoy your stay!
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
115 Onyx is an original Balboa Island cottage built in 1930 and owned by only 4 families. Onyx Avenue, just one block off Marine Avenue (the main street) is an original street with many older homes. This home is perfect for a lovely stroll around the island and to the main street for a morning cinnamon roll and cup of coffee or early dinner at sunset.
この宿泊施設の特徴
This home offers original high beamed ceilings which gives an open quality to the living space. Large windows and french doors offer an inside out feeling downstairs, while the warm wood and high beams upstairs create a cozy atmosphere in the evenings. The views to the bay and the open, airiness of the space creates a beachy atmosphere all year long! Our personal favorite time of the year is in the off season where the sun is still warm and the island is quiet with locals on their morning walks or an early evening paddleboard! In the evenings, a glass of wine or a cup of tea on the patio before retiring to a good movie and even a fireplace if weather requires!
