About this cottage rental
Mariners cottage has become a well known home on the island dating back to the early 1920's. The cottage attracts several visitors and pedestrians walking by. The Cottage is one of the few on the island that will still take you back to its heritage though without depriving you of the luxuries of today. This 2nd story cottage is totally private with its own entrance and 1 covered parking space. There is one large bonus/bedroom with two queen beds adjacent to a full bath. The Bedroom overlooks the cottage courtyard. The space also offers a main living room equipped with an electric fireplace. A fully functioning kitchen with new appliances adjoins the living room. The home is fully stocked to include: dining and cookware, linens pillows and blankets, towels, iron, etc. There is an onsite washing machine and dryer free of charge. Enjoy an inviting outdoor patio with dining furniture for 4. Bicycles, water toys, and all the excursions you can imagine are available within walking distance!
The lower unit with accommodations for 4 additional guests is also available upon request if you have a larger party and would like to have both. This would include an additional complete home with kitchen, dining, living space, office, bedroom and full bath, as well as a large downstairs courtyard with hot tub. One additional parking space also included.

We always enjoy our week at Chase’s cottage. We celebrated Mother’s Day, had beautiful weather and were lucky enough to add a couple of extra days to our vacation. We looked forward to having coffee in the morning and a glass of wine at night out on the new deck furniture. Until next time!!

I and my daughter stayed at the cottage for 6 days. We really appreciated the cozy, clean and well equipped cottage. The area was beautiful and well situated at Balboa Island. Chase was such a great landlord, responding swiftly to all our queries. We are so grateful for the kind hospitality and we can warmly recommend this vacation rental!

Great communication and just a very well maintained cottage loft feel here. Outdoor patio is a surprise with really comfortable seating and just a great place to hang out. We easily walked downtown and to the water. The property had great storage for our “stuff” too which was appreciated. Really good shower and just a fun place to stay.

I’ve been staying on Balboa Island at least 3 times a year for the past 30 years, and this updated cottage is one of the best beach cottages my wife and I have ever rented! Excellent price point and a beautiful remodel with a lot of space for two adults.

We just stayed here for the 2nd time while visiting family in Huntington Beach. The apartment is attractively furnished in gray, navy and white, and has everything you will need in the kitchen. It is steps away from the walkway that runs all the way around Balboa Island. We look forward to returning.

Property was clean and well stocked. Location was super convenient and having a parking spot instead of trying to find street parking was fantastic. Would definitely book again!

Property and host were both great! I experienced a strange glitch when booking this VRBO trip through Expedia. I could not connect the reservation to my VRBO account and VRBO was unable to resolve the issue. However, they put me in direct contact with the host, who was very professional and communicative. We enjoyed staying in this cute property on beautiful Balboa Island. Highly recommend.

We come to the LA area every three months for medical appointments and this was by far the best place we have stayed. Chase is an excellent host and has paid attention to all the details to make for a great guest experience. We would definitely stay here again. Great quiet neighborhood. Walkable to shops and restaurants. Close to all the action.

My husband and I have never been to California before and this area was recommended by family. We would come back in a heartbeat! This property is walking distance to so much and we spent so much time outside! The property had everything we needed including the kitchen that was stocked with things to cook with! We will definitely be back!

The cottage is tastefully decorated, well appointed and immaculately clean! The beds and pillows are so incredibly comfortable that combined with buttery soft linens you will never want to get up in the morning! An ideal quiet location and perfect host…it doesn’t get any better than that! We definitely will rent this unit again.

This spot was absolutely perfect for 2 beach bumming kids celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary. It was magical to walk through the festively lit streets to admire beautiful beach homes. Its wonderful to ditch your car and enjoy everything close by.

Cannot say enough good things about this rental. I don't love vacation rentals and have been avoiding, but took a chance on this trip and I am SO glad we did. We checked in late evening and had no trouble locating everything. The directions were clear. Fresh, clean, and every single thing we needed was at an arm's reach. We were very comfortable. Walkability to the ferry was perfect. And it goes without saying, Balboa Island at Christmas is MAGICAL! Thank you for the wonderful stay, we hope to be back soon!

Wonderful one bedroom...The bedroom itself is quite large with 2 queen size beds, a very nice living room and kitchen. Very clean and welcoming, complete with a small outside area perfect to be able to enjoy the evening and barbeque. The carport is a plus with easy access to the unit.
To top it all off, Chase was a wonderful host!

We loved our stay here! The owner Chase is beyond wonderful. The check in process was a breeze. It’s super quiet, adorable and the location is perfect. Chase thought of everything, soap & shampoo, towels, cooking utensils and more, to make it feel like a home away from home. We loved walking to grab donuts in the morning, taking the ferry in the afternoons to ride e-bikes and take in the fun zone, etc.

This was our 10th stay on Sapphire! We are never disappointed by the Vitamin Sea, shopping, bike riding, sea doo excursion, dining that Balboa (Newport Beach) has to offer! Love, love, love this place and the host is exceptional! We will be back and can't wait!

This was perfect for a quick get away when we wanted to be on Balboa. About 1/2 way between shopping and the ferry and only a few houses from the little beaches, it was ideal!

What a surprisingly comfortable stay! The beds were bigger and better than expected and we loved having space to hang and spread out our “stuff” on the many shelves and nightstands. Well equipped kitchen and enjoyed the patio BBQ. The fireplace was a nice touch. Look forward to returning!
