3 Properties From the Beach

The house is in a great location on the island that allowed for many walks with my family, enjoying all the Christmas decorations. The house was very clean when we got there and had everything we needed for cooking, cleaning and just overall comfortable living. The house is well updated, bed was very comfortable and clean, and the place also had AC/heating. We enjoyed eating our meals on the rooftop patio and the grill also works great! Overall just a fantastic stay. Pat is a great host that was open to helping us whenever we needed. Communication was great!

Perfect location and quiet neighborhood. Thanks

The place was great and convenient location. The only downside was it was upstairs so if carrying up luggage is tough may not be the best one.

Nicest place we have ever stayed in! Loved every minute. Owner was very responsive. Can’t say enough good

Great location close to the bay, loved the rooftop patio, and nice quiet area.

Great location with about a half mile walk to Marine Avenue and lots of fun restaurants. The boardwalk was just a block from the unit and provided beautiful Island bayside walks. The outside deck was great for dining alfresco. The attached garage was a definate plus and took away parking stress when taking the car out. Overall great stay for us.

Great property, terrific location. It was perfect!

Beautiful deck to relax on, very comfortable bed, couch etc.. wonderful location near the bay front. We will definitely be renting again!

Exactly as advertised. Very clean, great location, well stocked with everything we needed!

Very quiet neighborhood. Wonderful to have a garage to park in didn’t have to worry about parking.

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!

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.

Location was great and the cottage is well equipped. We really enjoy cooking so the kitchen was very well equipped. The outdoor deck was where we ate most our meals t9 enjoy the lovely weather. We would definitely stay here again! Pat was a great communicating with us and was an awesome host!

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

Great trip! We were able to walk to many areas on the island for scenic views, food, and shopping.

The apartment is appointed very nicely with everything you would need and want. Pat, is extrememly responsive and only a phone call away. Any issue or concern is resolved immediately. The location is wonderful. Only steps away from the North Bayfront. The deck was a major plus with its solar umbrella and comfortable furniture. We totally enjoyed our time away here and so will you.

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.

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 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.

Our stay started the day my fiancé retired! The property, including the rooftop deck, was spacious, clean, and very well appointed. Besides rooftop relaxing, we also enjoyed our Bayfront walks, biking via ferry along the peninsula, beach sitting, Marine Ave, and local restaurants featuring live music... Highly recommend!

we will be back

The house was very comfortable, especially the large king bed. It was nice to have the option for A/C which isn’t 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!
