We came here with our grandchildren and the location was thte best. Very close to playgrounds, the beach on the bay side for little kids and the ocian side for big kids. The set up is nice with two sets of bunk beds in one bedroom and a big bed in the other. The porch and deck were also nice for great outside space.

We had a great time at this spot, so close to the beach and the bay. The beds are comfy and the rooms are huge. Our kids loved the bunk beds. Jason was responsive and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!

We come in every year for the holidays to visit family. It is a great location with access to Balboa and Newport. It is right in between the bay and the coastline. Fair warning the interior doors are not solid so if you need quiet for littles to nap this may not be the place for you. The attached patio is nice to sit and enjoy the gorgeous weather.

We have been visiting the Balboa Peninsula for years and this place is right in the heart of it all. The condo had all of the amenities you need for a pleasant stay. Below are my Pro's and Con's of the condo:
Pro
1 Location. Easy access to beach and shopping. We rode bikes and walked everywhere.
2 Garage was small but we were able to store our bikes and scooters safely without having to drag them upstairs.
3 Comfortable bed and sheets. Don't know what type of material the bed linens were but they were soft and comfy.
4 Outside deck was great for morning coffee and cocktails at sunset. Plenty of room to leave all of our beach gear and not have to bring it inside.
Con's
1 It's an old bathroom so don't expect a lot of pressure from the shower head.
2 No fan in second bedroom and it gets warm with double bunk beds and limited air flow, bring a fan for that room.
3 We didn't cook much but I would say that the kitchen did not have a lot of appliances. I couldn't find a coffee maker.
The check in was effortless and communication with Landlord was great.
We would stay here again.

Great property on Balboa Island. Perfect location. Bunk beds are uncomfortable for an adult and the shower ran either freezing cold or scalding hot. No in between. But we enjoyed the stay and would do it again.

Good family fun
The owner recommended a bike rental company that delivered bikes. The bike rental was everyone favorite part. I recommend renting the bikes, but double check best practices for locking them up.
We will be renting another property from the owner soon.
Thanks for the fun family memories!

Fabulous stay
Fabulous stay
The location is perfect. The outdoor seating area was so spacious with a partial ocean view. The bedeooms are huge. Everything was provided, though the boogie boards need to be replaced and there was only one chair and one 1980's lounger that was available for the 6 of us. Very convenient to have a parking garage. Close to restaurants and rentals. Overall I would definately stay again.

The old retro decor needs to go and the bunk beds are springy but Jason sent a brand new bbq after we found the old one died and new deck chairs . The fridge handle is still taped up But it works fine .

I Wanted to Like It
I Wanted to Like It
I want to first say that Jason was fantastic. He was available when needed, and even allowed us to check in early when we arrived sooner than expected. The location of the room is fantastic, however the title of "stunning remodel" I believe is a bit misleading. Television wires were hanging everywhere and were covered by pieces of cloth. The furniture in the room looked dated and worn out. Rust was apparent on the furniture in the kitchen. The fridge door handle was barely hanging on, and the ice maker was broken (creating chunks of ice we had to dig out to use). The bunk beds are very uncomfortable, noisy, and caused me quite a bit of hip and back pain when I slept on it. The closet is full of board games, all with missing pieces and most of them unplayable, as well as an outdoor chest full of beach toys and a basketball that was flat. The Wifi only works in the kitchen and living room, and was not able to connect to the bedrooms or bathroom. I really wanted to love this place for the location, but overall even though the customer service was great, my family won't be back to this room. This room provides very minimal and basic accommodations, as opposed to other rooms we have stayed at in the area.

GREAT location, not the best experience
Couldn't get into the garage with the code when we arrived, and it wasn't resolved until late in day 2 (of 3). Owners not terribly responsive. Description indicated laundry detergent was included. I searched everywhere, asked owners. Never found soap, and owners never did answer. Chair on porch broke and husband went tumbling. I will go back to Balboa, but will look for a different rental.

Nice place to stay if you want to be close to the ocean.
Nice place to stay if you want to be close to the ocean.
Overall it was a nice and clean place. It was a little dated. If you are expecting a Hilton type of room, don't. It is not right on the beach but is only a 2 minute walk to the beach which was nice. There is a school that blocks almost all of the view of the beach but none the less still nice to be close. There are three units to this rental. We had the upstairs one. There was an attached roof deck that was nice to sit on and enjoy the ocean air and we were able to see a glimpse of the beach from there. There were six of us and found that there was plenty of room. It was sort of a balancing act with one bathroom and four females trying to get ready in the morning but overall it was workable. It was nice to have a full kitchen with cooking utensils and pans with some seasonings. The grill also worked well and had gas in it while we were there. The state of the propane is the responsibility of the renters. If you have a large vehicle don't plan on being able to comfortably park in the garage. It is very small and made for a car the size of a small compact. Overall impression is I would go there again.

Not the best VRBO experience I've had...
Not the best VRBO experience I've had...
This VRBO had some issues. The photos are pretty accurate, but it was not clean and maintained as well as most others I have stayed at over the last 4 years. Carpets in bedroom desperately need shampooing, bed frame on King bed broken, TV did not work the entire time we were there for 4 days (despite a text to the owner). Our car would not fit in the tiny garage, so we had to use street parking. Other small things were missing, like no washcloths with the towels and no soap for the shower. Kitchen was clean and maintained, though. I also found the owners hard to communicate with beforehand. I requested a copy of my contract to understand cancellation and deposit refund policies. But I never received a copy, even after 3 asks. You may want to take the above into consideration before you book.

Couple things could be better
Couple things could be better
The cleanliness was good, however, I would say it is not kid friendly, we had to move several glass breakable things out of the kids reach and move them back before we left. Also for kids the high top chairs didn't work for our little ones (didn't want them to fall and get hurt). The refrigerator door handle was broken. And in the afternoon/evenings the sun blairs in so brightly through the Arcadia door which is missing half the blinds and through the kitchen window above the sink that has no blinds, it makes cooking very un enjoyable, and it makes the place really warm. Other than that the location was good, an easy walk to the beach, the beach is awesome there, barely any people. The bed was comfortable. The place was clean. It was nice that they have a washer and dryer. Location was good, a lot to eat and grocery stores. We would stay again if those few things changed.

The location of this property is perfect half way between both piers. It has a wonderful large deck that sits above all other properties so very relaxing. There are a few things that need upgrading but overall we thoroughly enjoyed it. It was well stocked in the kitchen and the beds were very comfortable. We will be back

Our family enjoyed 2 weeks of So Cal sun, fun and sand. We road bikes or walked all over. Cross Balboa Blvd and you are on the beach. Short bike ride to grocery store, restaurants and shopping. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION. Having a full kitchen, washer and dryer, a garage and a huge deck made it so easy to settle in and enjoy all Newport has to offer. We loved it and will be renting this home again. Owner was great and super responsive.

The House was everything we hoped for. Beautifully decorated, perfect location. One block from the sand and shore. The house was located between Balboa and Newport Pier. 10-15 minute walk either direction. Jason was very responsive to any questions I had. My family had an amazing vacation.

Great location, but rundown
Great location, but rundown
The location of this property was great, since it was directly across the street from the beach and boardwalk. It was, however, pretty rundown. The bath towels were old and worn out, the couch seemed (smelled) old. The code to the garage didn't work so we couldn't ever get in, which ended up being ok because we were always able to find parking on the street, but could have potentially been an issue. Thankfully for some, the bed in the master was quite comfortable. The tv in the master was one of the old box ones from decades ago, but hopefully no one comes to Newport to watch tv.
There were a few things missing, as well. The ceiling fans and some of the lights were run by remotes, and there were only batteries in one of the remotes so if we ever wanted to turn a fan on or off, we had to switch them all out. In our reservation we noted that we would have 6 women for a 4 night. 5 day stay, and there were only 3 rolls of toilet paper, so we had to supply our own for the last part of the trip. We also ran out of garbage bags.
The location was great. Being close to the boardwalk and beach, and within walking distance of some great coffee shops, restaurants, and bike rental places is definitely a perk. This seems to be one of the more budget-friendly properties, so if that is what you are looking for, this is the place for you!

The location was great. Close to beach, bars and bike rentals. Access to the property was easy coordination with the owner. Clean and well kept. We weren't able to resolve the surround sound hook up to an iPod but we made the best of it. Home had everything we needed and check out was very simple! It was great!

My kids and I had a great time in Newport Beach, and enjoyed this property immensely! It was very close to the beach, and within walking distance to a bike rental location. We rented bikes and rode all over town. The rental unit was clean and comfy! The deck was awesome ~ we ate our meals out there and looked out towards the beach.

Loved this unit and location. Took my mom, teenage daughter and a couple of her friends for 3 nights. Everyone had a blast. The weather was beautiful and the deck was so relaxing. It was like an extra room. 15 minute walk to Newport pier and 25 min walk to Balboa pier. Rented paddle boards off 15th street. Walked everywhere. Laventina's Pizza was yummy and delivered. I definitely would consider renting this unit again.

what an ideal location - half-way between both ends of the peninsula, access to everything and right across the street is the beach! we rented bikes for the week and were able to get to everything, quite nicely. great restaurants and arcades at the balboa fun zone - be sure to check-out all the souvenir shops before you buy!! the place has an outdoor patio with gas grill, which was a great budget-saver as we cooked a few lunches/dinners and ate outside. the street is busy, but didn't notice any traffic noise at night and slept like babies after such busy, full days!! took one day for a driving tour up the PCH and watched 100s of surfers at huntington beach, then ventured onward to venice beach and stopped for a photo opp under the hollywood sign. if you have a crew like we did, you'll just need to schedule the one bathroom - the only drawback . . . other than that, we had a blast!!
