Steps to Beach |Bikes, BBQ & Parking |Flexible 4BR

Excellent location, well appointed home. Parking was a little tight but we were able to squeeze our minivan in the garage with a bit of effort.

Home has exceeded our expectations. Clean. Nice layout . Nicely decorated . Roomy for family of 6 adults. Very convenient to walk to the beach, boardwalk and the ferry. Highly recommended and will definitely stay here again (maybe in off seasons for better price).

Excellent location. Close to the beach and very close to the balboa fun zone! Comfortably fit 8 of us. A/C was nice. Tons of beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, sand toys, and bikes! (Just no kids bikes) Shower in the garage was helpful. Everything was very clean and beautiful! Outside grill was big and clean. FYI there is no cooking oil or aluminum foil. Also upstairs feet can get a little loud, and you share the garage and driveway with the upstairs people. Also only smaller vehicles can fit in the driveway and garage. We loved our stay and would stay there again!

The place is nice, especially for the price, but if you are staying in the downstairs portion, it is very noisy because of the additional unit above. This also is a very corporate-run listing and not like dealing with a single owner. You will have to sign lots of forms and wait an unreasonable time for your security deposit to be returned.

We had a wonderful stay! Close to the beach, very clean and modern accomadtions. Check in was easy and our host was always willing to help with anything we needed. Would definitely stay again!

Great place and good location.

The house was beautiful, met the needs of my family of 5- and the host was attentive to our needs.

Beds were comfortable, beach was across the street, bikes, and beach gear were great to have on hand. Great value for a three bedroom!

Beautiful, clean and great location. A lot to do for check in and check out. Could hear people upstairs walking around even in the middle of the night.

We recently had a terrific experience at the Balboa Peninsula house. Very well appointed and roomy. The communication was excellent leading up to the check in and including check out. We walked to get coffee, to the Ferris wheel, ice cream, and took a ride with a friend on her boat. Plenty of bikes were available as well. Everything was within a couple of blocks. Having a parking space in the garage was appreciated. I highly recommend this property!

Great place for our needs; space for 4 adults. Very close to the beach. Enjoyed our stay.

It was a perfect spot for what we were looking for. The length of the property was great for a feeling of separation/noise concerns between the rooms. The Property was clean and comfortable with a wonderful A/C system. We were provided with a great set of beach gear and the outdoor shower was very convenient. Very nice neighborhood with kind people around. 2 blocks away from the fun zone, the ferry and the beach.

Diana was great at check in and very available for questions.. clean up was easy and the location was 5 star .. very clean and updated accommodations.

This house is in the perfect location. It's steps from the ferry to Balboa Island, 5 minutes' walk to the beach and boardwalk, and within easy reach of restaurants, bars, and fun. Towels, bikes, beach chairs...All you need for a fun day at the shore is provided. And anything we needed or had questions about was answered within minutes. Definitely a great place to stay!!

Definitely a nice, convenient spot if you like the beach and surrounding areas. Tons of stuff walking distance as parking was our major issue while we were there. The locals get frustrated too so take a dose of patience with you if your vehicle is too large for the garage/carport. Seems a little smaller inside than I originally thought but it all worked out in the long run. Front patio was pretty dirty with cob webs otherwise the property is in pristine condition. The neighbors are super friendly and nice too. Denise was great to work with! I felt at ease having a person of contact in case I needed to and she was responsive immediately! Thank you for sharing your home with us. We took great care of everything. :)

This location is perfect for a family vacation! Very close to the beach and fun zone 5 min walk! Plenty of restaurants and good coffee shops within a 5 min walk too! The property was clean , beds were comfortable and kitchen fully stocked. Ac was awesome! Plenty of bikes and beach equipment to use. Customer service and communication was a 5 star! I would recommend this place and plan to stay again! Thank you

We vacationed with our adult children and grandbaby and had a fantastic stay. The property is clean, well-appointed and comfortable. The location is ideal. We would love to stay here again!

The property was clean and accessible to many attractions and just a short walk away from the Balboa Fun Zone and Ferry crossing. The only problem we had was that the sink in the master bedroom clogged up and gunk was coming up from the sink. We contacted the property manager and she was able to help us right away. Although we managed to unclog the sink ourselves, the property manager had a cleaning service come to the property to clean and sanitize the sink the next morning which we appreciated. Other than that our stay was pleasant and the unit is well equipped in the kitchen and bedrooms with linens and towels. I would rent the property again.

Couldn’t have stayed in a better location. Literally a couple minutes walk from the beach. Plenty of toys and equipment for the family to use at the beach. Check in process was a breeze and the rep was a pleasure to deal with.

This is an excellent beach house to rent. It is in a nice, quiet neighborhood.

My family and I had a GREAT stay and would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to stay in Newport Beach. We love walking Balboa Island and being 1 block to the ferry made it incredibly easy. We also love the beach, which was also a block away, so I cannot say enough wonderful things about this home and it's location. The house was very clean and as a bonus had all the beach towels, chairs, toys and boogie boards you will need. Thank you for accommodating me and my family!!!!

Turn left to the bay and island ferry, or turn right and your beachfront... Excellent location! House is beautiful and everything is maintained like new, plenty of room for our group of 8. Quiet neighborhood street, but only a block from a variety of shops, restaurants, etc. It was great to be able to everyone explore on their own.Dedicated property host that is always in contact when needed. The property owner happened to be in the area and shared a ton of suggestions which was also a plus!Will return to this property when we are back in the area.

We had a great time, perfect location. Responsive owners and clean, comfortable property. We would definitely stay here again!

We stayed in this VRBO for three nights and it was very nice place. TV in the living room was not working, and the owner had it replace immediately. I can recommend this place for those looking to enjoy the Southern California Beach.

The home was beautifully decorated and just a quick walk to the beach, restaurants and pier. The only negative is the upstairs unit. As noted by other folks, when people are in the upper unit you can hear every footstep

Very nice property at a great location. Listing was accurate and no unwanted surprises arosed.Will stay again without a doubt.

The place would have been perfect, except we had no idea someone would be staying above us, and you hear every footstep they take through VERY creaky floor joists. While the property description on the LAST LINE explains it's a duplex, we certainly had not read that far in the description as the house appears amazing in the pictures and description (which it otherwise is). Our first night we were woken at 4:30 a.m. when the upstairs neighbor must have left for the airport, and then when housekeeping came, they were dragging furniture around over our living space, which sounded like trucks driving by. Then the second night when the new guest arrived, they were up until after 11:00 p.m. moving in and unpacking, walking all over our ceiling for an hour. If you rent here, be prepared to rise and fall with the upstairs renters.

Walk to the ocean and walk to the bay. Very beautiful property, all the amenities we needed.

Pros: - Location! A block from the beach, a block from Balboa fun zone with restaurants, entertainment and bars, and about a 5 minute walk to the pier. - Property was clean, comfortable and inviting. - Having 2 parking spots and a washer/dryer was such a convenience. - Check in process was easy and fast. - Information booklet on how everything worked in the property was a nice touch. Cons: - Not really a con, but it was uncharacteristically cold the weekend we were in Newport so maybe a couple of more throw blankets would have been nice. We just ended up taking comforters from the bed to use whole lounging on the couch. We would recommend this property and would definitely stay here again!

Stayed in November. The weather was perfect we were able to walk to the ferry to tour around Balboa Island. The bikes were great for our party of 5 and watching the sunsets on the beach is a must. Beds are super comfy. We ate our meals out but the kitchen looked well equipped. It was an enjoyable weekend and we were able to see whales on our private boat tour.

The location is perfect. The home is set up very nicely.

The location was ideal for a wonderful beach vacation. The house was as listed! The kitchen was well stocked and beds were extremely comfortable!

Location was perfect . Very walkable. We took the cute ferry over to Balboa Island many times. The unit for our 5 adults and two babies just enough room with 3 bedrooms and and a large den for the porta cribs we brought

The location is great, the property is great.

A wonderful friends getaway! We enjoyed 3 /12 days in this awesome rental! Home was clean, bright and cheerful, comfortable, had everything we needed and close to everything! The owner and property manager could not have been more kind and accommodating! Would definitely stay here again! Thank you for everything!!! :)

This place has a great location—one block away from beach. We did take the advantage and walked to the beach several times a day. But the condition of the house is suboptimal. The furnitures are old and the sliding doors are malfunctional. You even can’t close the door of the bathroom when you take showers. The bedsheets and Towels are cheap, low quality and uncomfortable. The floor is dirty and slippery. The light over the dining table is a joke. It is so low and hit my head every time when I eat. Parking is also hard. The garage is too small for our minivan.

We will definitely be staying here again. Everything was perfect and the short walk to the arcade was a plus for the kids.

We had a family reunion on the beach. The location was perfect.
