We had a wonderful stay at this beachfront property with our kids. The location was unbeatable — the beach was just steps away, and the broadwalk right in front of the house made it easy and fun to explore the area. The sunsets were absolutely stunning and created the perfect end to each day.The house was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped. We appreciated the beach chairs and sand toys for the kids, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The patio was one of our favorite spots — perfect for enjoying family dinners, watching people stroll by and enjoying the sunsets.Communication with Ann was excellent — she was kind, responsive, and made everything easy. We truly enjoyed our time here and would love to return.

Wonderful home. Large sitting and kitchen area. Beds comfortable. The boardwalk is perfect for people watching. I would point out tho that it’s a fair distance from the house to the water. Could be a problem for younger and older guests. Otherwise it was perfect!

We love this central location in Newport Beach. We've been coming here for years. The furniture and appliances are kept fresh and in good working order. Ann provides umbrellas, boogie boards, children sand toys and folding chairs, which makes it so convenient because all the goodies that you would want are there. This has been our dream spot for years!

Four siblings reunion--all seniors 79. We have stayed here before and plan to do so again in 2027. Fun patio on the boardwalk--perfect for eating, drinking and people watching!

We had a party of 7 adults for our daughter’s graduation from college. The room situation was perfect, having had 4 bedrooms and 6 total beds. Our favorite part was the patio and beach views. At night the large table inside provided a nice space for playing games. The manager of the property is really responsive. We were happy with our stay.

The location of this property is unmatched. Close enough to the pier for a short walk, but far enough away you are removed from the main traffic. The host was very helpful and responded within minutes of any questions we had. We'll be coming back for sure.

What a wonderful property, host and location! Dining area a bit cramped, but who wants to eat inside with that roomy patio smack-dab on the Pacific? We shall return!

10.0 / 10.0

The house is so clean and comfortable! We were pleased by the ease of communication with the host, Ann, and with the size and location of the house. Everyone in our group, 6 adults and two older teens, enjoyed the location and our chance to be together in a great spot. People watching on the boardwalk was a highlight!

This was our second time staying at the property and our family absolutely loves it. Our children ask to go back all the time. The location is perfect and walkable to do many places. The beds are very comfortable and the house has everything you could possibly need!

10.0 / 10.0

Ann's place worked out so well for our three-generation trip, 6 adults. There was plenty of space for us to be together, plus enough bedrooms for us to each have some privacy. Everything was clean and the location was very safe. The beach was never crowded and the boardwalk was very quiet on weekdays. If you have a larger vehicle, the parking spot out back is a little tight to get in and out of, but do-able. We would definitely stay again.

10.0 / 10.0

Perfect location, the most comfortable beds, and Ann went out of her way to help us during a medical interruption of our stay. Definite 10*, and would love to stay again in the future.

Our group of 7 loved our full day on the beachfront patio after spending a couple days at Disneyland. Host Anne is super responsive and the house was stocked with all the basics. The beautiful CA sunset was the icing on the cake!

We were one happy family of five beach loving adults vacationing in this cool home with the blue awning. When we weren’t tramping down to the water, we were people watching on the patio. Owners very responsive about their place. We appreciated the new Keurig and the clean barbecue! We hope to return.

We LOVE returning to this spot in Newport Beach each year! All of our family truly looks forward to it. It is in the best location within close walking distance to the beach (it is on the beach and boardwalk), close to the pier, the Fun Zone, the Ferry! This 'home away from home' is immaculate! It is modernized with furnishings, appliances, the bedding is heavenly. In front of the apartment is a wonderful patio with two tables and two umbrellas where we all hang out during the daytime! There is a BBQ, kayak, beach toys for kids, and beach chairs. We have always found the owner, Ann, to be very receptive to our questions or needs. For example, we found the blender had been cracked and unusable. We contacted Ann and the next day, a new one was delivered to our door at the beach. We always get one parking spot behind the house but free parking on the street nearby is easy enough. (Note: There in no parking on Monday during certain hours, and on the other side of the street on Wednesday when the street sweeper comes back the alternate day.) Also, one day when we are down there, we invite our entire extended family to come down and have a bonfire on the beach.It is so easy to secure a fire ring during the week. We look forward to going back next year!!

I’ve stayed here before in 2019 for my 30th birthday. When I saw this was available I canceled my hotel and booked this! It’s the perfect location! So cute & updated. Also right on the beach! Can you beat that? I will always rent this house! It’s my fav in Newport!

I had an incredible stay at this beachfront property hosted by Ann. Her responsiveness to our needs ensured a comfortable experience. The beds were cozy, and the spacious layout provided ample room for our family of 6. The beachfront location was unbeatable, and the place was impeccably clean with all the essentials. The highlight (other than Ann) was the perfect patio furniture, offering a relaxing spot to enjoy the beach and people-watch. Ann's attention to detail and the property's fantastic features made our stay memorable. Highly recommended for a perfect getaway, especially if you're heading to Disneyland!

What a great stay! The house fit our two families just perfect! Being on the bike path and watching the sun rise and set was great! We paddle boarded in the harbor, watched dolphins from the pier, and enjoyed a day at Catalina Island. The house was clean and bright. Great to BBQ in the evening with a cocktail and soak it all in. Hope to stay again soon! Ann was great and answered all of our questions right away. Thanks again!

Love our stay at this beautiful, clean place on the boardwalk. The place is beautifully appointed. It is near the pier, fun zone, on the beach, swings and playground equipment, near the ferry. It is right in the heart of every thing. There are volleyball nets and fire rings that are in nearby eyesight. Communication with the owner is very easy and she is always ready to accomodate. There is a (small) walled-in patio with seating and umbrella coverings so you can sit outside and relax. There is a BBQ too. It was great that she had additional outdoor folding beach chairs (on the side of the house), that we could take down to the water's edge. (Next year we won't have to bring our own beach chairs that take up so much room in our car!) There were even sand toys, pails and toy shovels for the little ones on the side of the house.We were allowed one parking space, but our guests could find plenty of free parking on the street DURING the week. There is a washer and dryer (bring your own soap).

Our family had the best time. Such and easy move in. Rental is all ground level. Four bedrooms! Open living, dining, island and kitchen area is very roomy, and faces the beach. We so enjoyed our time relaxing and visiting on the front patio. Couldn’t find a can opener, but a quick walk to the corner pharmacy solved that. Gladly gifted the can opener to future guests. Enjoy! This property provides for a superior family retreat. We loved our stay from start to finish.
