About this house rental
Welcome to Balboa House, a beautifully reimagined, first-level beach retreat nestled in the heart of Balboa Island—just steps from the shimmering waters of South Bayfront. This elegant 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home has been fully renovated with high-end finishes, premium appliances, and thoughtful design, offering more than 1,200 square feet of light-filled living space where comfort meets sophistication.
Enjoy slow mornings on the front patio with a warm coffee and the ocean breeze. Prepare fresh, local fare in the fully outfitted galley kitchen, featuring top-of-the-line appliances and custom cabinetry. Spend your days basking in the sun, wandering the island’s charming shops, or ferrying across the harbor for coastal adventures—and return home to luxury linens, serene bedrooms, and the familiar ease of a home that welcomes you at every turn.
Every detail at Balboa House is curated for relaxation, connection and joy. From plush bedding and spa-inspired bathrooms to private indoor laundry and a rare, dedicated carport parking space, your stay will be seamless and stress-free. Beach chairs, towels, and a cooler are all included—because memories are made on the sand, toes in the water, laughter in the air.
Your Island Escape Awaits
Balboa Island is more than a destination — it’s a feeling. Stroll to fine dining, charming boutiques and bayside beaches. Take a sunset cruise. Share ice cream on Marine Avenue. Watch the kids collect shells or ride the ferry to the Fun Zone just across the harbor. Whether you’re savoring a special celebration or simply carving out time together, the magic of island life is all around you.
At Balboa House, you’ll find more than a place to stay—you’ll find a place to be. To reconnect. To unwind. To make memories that will last long after the week is done.

We absolutely loved our stay here! The house is impeccably designed, charming, well appointed, and very clean. The location is also ideal. It’s close to the bayfront, marine, and the car ferry for easy access to the peninsula. The hosts were very prompt in responding to us and very helpful. We will absolutely be back again. 10/10 recommend

This was a 5-star experience all the way! Matt was very nice and responsive throughout our whole stay. The location was absolutely perfect. Very close to the beach, Balboa main strip, CDM and Newport. The house itself is in a quiet spot. The house is gorgeous! The layout, decor and details are so well done and just beautiful. We had an amazing trip. If this house is available for your stay, jump on it!
