This modest lower unit has a lot to offer. Once you park the car, you won’t have to move it for the remainder of your stay! Second, the unit has had some updating inside and out. And last but not least, the price is lower than other oceanfront's due to the parking lot being right out front, even though the sand is mere steps away.

The living area, with cool tile flooring, a sofa with chaise, coffee table, side chairs and wall-mounted flat panel TV has ocean views and a view of Balboa Pier. The fireplace has been newly revamped, with blue fire glass for a dazzling display. A roomy dining table and chairs graces the small dining area and there are several bar stools for snacks or quick meals at the counter. The kitchen has tiled floors, brand new granite counters and subway tile back splash, recessed lighting, a pantry and a contemporary hood for better views while you cook.

The home has three bedrooms, all with wood-look laminate flooring. The master suite has a king bed and a tiled en-suite bath with a tub/shower combination. The middle bedroom has a twin and a double bed. The front bedroom has a queen bed. The spacious hall bath also has a tub/shower combination.

The rental has limited outdoor space, but then the beach is right out front! A small side deck is large enough for one chair and the gas BBQ. The strip of “patio” in front accommodates several resin chairs, but is not wide enough for a table.

A shared heavy-duty Speed Queen washer and dryer are located in the garage, with one parking space for this unit. There is an outdoor shower with hot and cold water for rinsing the sand away.

The home is situated a short stroll from the Balboa Pier, Balboa Pavilion and surrounding boutiques and eateries. Catch the ferry to Balboa Island via bicycle or on foot to stroll among coastal-chic shops and cafes. Deep sea fishing and whale watching excursions can be booked through Davey’s Locker at the Pavilion.

There is construction to the home across the alley.

Our family beach vacation

Bonnie McBain

Our vacation rental was amazing. From check in to check out was so smooth. The location was amazing we could walk everywhere we wanted to restaurants, stores, the pier and market. There was plenty of parking right in front of the property.

Easy access and fabulous location!

I cannot express how fantastic it was to be situated where we were. We had a fabulous time. There are a few things to note if you stay here. Sleeping in the front room is fine except that the noise in the morning from equipment, trucks, and parking lot got a bit rough. Granted I am a light sleeper, but I definitely didn’t sleep as soundly as I would have liked. That said, the bedrooms were fine.

Secondly, the WiFi was extremely spotty. We were unable to watch anything through the provided TV (streaming cable only) for longer than 3 minutes the first two days we were there. We ended up hot spitting on a phone to watch movies on a computer.

This was a very relaxing vacation for all of us. The layout is great and would stay there again. The property management kept in touch asking if everything was okay. Loved that! The best thing was that we had a transit van with handicap parking and was able to stay in the lot just in front of us without paying! The beach is just steps away and had a relaxing day there. Very close to shops and restaurants!

This house is in the perfect Newport Beach location. It is literally steps from the sand. It included just about everything needed. We had a party of 7 so there was plenty of space. We would definitely recommend & stay again. Our only complaint is the minimal amount of toilet paper, paper towels, and cleaning supplies provided. We used the balcony barbecue twice which was very nice. Great beach rental!

Beach House

This Beach House was everything we expected. Steps from the beach and minutes from the Balboa Fun Zone. Everything worked properly, the unit was clean and we were very happy with our stay.

I stayed at this property for Spring Break with my kids. There were 4 of us in total. It was the perfect setup for us in terms of beds and rooms and waking distance to all the fun (pier, beach, shops, ferry, etc). The open living area is great for meals and gathering with a sunset view. The patio is small but fits chairs for sun bathing and people watching. We rented bikes and had a great time overall. My only complaint is that the house needs a little love (interior paint, deep cleaning, broken light fixtures etc). But none of that truly impacted our stay. It was a great price for the stunning location. While the Balboa pier parking lot is right across from the house, we found that convenient for friends to visit and the beach is only steps away. We would stay here again.
