304 Ruby A is professionally managed by Newport Beach Vacation Properties. This charming 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom, Balboa front unit is perfect for your next family vacation. Located centrally on Balboa Island, just a short walk away from the Ferry and the historic Marine Avenue where you can find quaint boutiques and restaurants.
The home offers a lovely front porch with a table for 4 for relaxing and enjoying a meal outside. Upon entering, you will be greeted with a spacious living and dining room with plenty of comfortable seating for the whole family and a dining table that seats 6. The kitchen is fully stocked with updated appliances, a double oven, and a breakfast bar that seats 3.
The first bedroom in the front of the home, off the kitchen, has a queen bed, a dresser, closest space, and plenty of natural light. Down the hall past the kitchen are 2 full bathrooms, one with a tub/shower combination, the other with a shower. You will also find the remaining 3 bedrooms down the hall, all with queen beds and closet space. The back 2 bedrooms can be accessed from inside the home, but also have doors leading out to the walk way between the front unit and the shared garage.
In the walk way between the front unit and the shared garage, you will find a grill for your use as well as the pedestrian door to access the garage. In the garage, you will have access to the full sized washer and dryer that is also shared with the upper unit's guests as well as a designated spot on the right side of the garage.
This home is in an ideal location on Balboa Island, walking distance to all the Island has to offer. The bayfront beaches are perfect for families with small children to play, due to the calm waters.
*Please note that the fireplace in the living room is non operational. This listing is for the front unit only. You may see exterior photos of the back unit but it is not included. Ask about details if you'd like to rent both units combined.
As our guest, enjoy complimentary local experiences curated to help you make the most of Newport Beach. Activity offerings are seasonal and may include whale watching, harbor cruises, E-BIKE rentals, kayaks & paddle boards, and electric boat rentals.
Other Important Details:
- Thanks to our cool coastal breeze, most Newport Beach homes do not have air conditioning (AC). Every home comes with fans so you can open the windows and enjoy the beach air like a local. If AC is important to you, please double check if it is listed as an amenity.
- Parking is provided at your rental unit. However, we cannot guarantee your vehicle will fit in the designated spot, so you may need to find street parking. Street parking can be impacted due to proximity to the beach.
- We do our best to stay on top of any remodels or construction happening near our properties, but construction can pop up in the City of Newport Beach without notice. By city rule, construction is only permitted Monday through Friday, 7am to 6:30pm.
*Refunds or credits will not be issued for any of the disclaimers above.*

The house was amazing, clean, stocked with all the necessities, and close to everything we wanted to do during our stay in Balboa and Newport Beach. Good communication with the host and we will definitely stay here again!

Fabulous in every way. We were a small group of sorority sisters from 55 years ago and we had so much fun!
10 / 10Outstanding·May 2025
Semi annual trip with friends. Location makes it easy to walk to shops, ferry to beach & pier, and local restaurants. Newport Beach Vacations was super about keeping us up to date on responsibilities without it feeling like a burden. They helped make it a better vacation.
