    Darling place that pretty much is exactly what you see in the pictures. Great location on the island and HUGE BENEFIT of a garage. I have a large SUV which we needed to make some modifications to in order to fit in the garage so if you drive a large SUV, the garage may not work for you but at least you have somewhere to park your bikes. The kitchen was well stocked and the appliances all worked great. Plenty of room for our family of 4 and plenty of lighting options. Fantastic cooling breezes when you open the windows. The Downfalls: Typical Vacasa paper towels and singly plky toilet paper which sucks. Not enough supply for our 4-day stay. When there is no tissue in the house, you have to use toilet paper or paper towels, We rean out of both. We ended up using paper towels in the bathroom on our last day since we ran out of toilet paper. (Thrown in the trash - not flushed down the toilet.) There were only 2 washcloths, 2 hand towels and 4 bat towels. Not enough for a family of four over four days. We requested more and ended up getting some towels the night before we checked out. The roman shades in the kitchen over the sink were broken. They came in and just flipped them up over the top to keep them open. Now, no option for privacy so I flipped them back down. One of the kitchen chairs had a leg that was literally hanging on by a thread. They came and tightened it up as best as they could. The ceiling fan in the second bedroom did not work........

    This condo is a great location - easy walk to main street on the island, to the ferry to go over to the peninsula and to the beach (even with kids)! The house had lots of beach toys which the kids really appreciated and couch was comfy for relaxing after a long day playing! The company checked in when we arrived and when I shared that the bathroom wasn’t as clean as I hoped, they were willing to send someone out right away to clean. Having a parking space was an added bonus on a busy holiday weekend!

    Amazing location, easy to find, perfect access to all Balboa has to offer. Clean, comfortable and well equipped. It didn’t affect us but Just be aware that Balboa Island is currently installing high bandwidth fibre so there is quite a lot of construction work ongoing on the island with road closures and heavy equipment in most areas. .

    Far enough from the main commercial street to provide a sense of serenity, but a very easy walk to the shops, restaurants, etc., and an even easier stroll to the water!

    Everything was first rate. Very comfortable overall. Property management was kind and responsive to our messages. If I had one suggestion, I would say that it would be to have more soap and shampoo for a 4 night stay.

    If you are looking for a place to just park your car for the trip, this is it as everything you'll need for a restful and enjoyable time away can be walked to. If you want to venture out further, the ferry can take you over to the main beach boardwalk and even more things to enjoy.
