We had a great time. This place was awesome!!! So clean and it had everything you could need. It was walking distance to everything; the bay, the beach, restaurants and shops.

Beautiful Bay Vistas

We have stayed in several VRBO properties over the past 10 years. This by far was in our top three. The ease of check-in and security of a garage was especially appreciated. The layout of the condo afforded privacy and comfort for the two of us. Neighbors could be a bit noisy, but by 7 PM all was quiet. We highly recommend this residence for any family of not more than four who enjoy beach access, and beautiful Bay views.

Beachside Heaven

It's been much too long since we stayed right next to a beach. This was the ideal location for beach, water & boat vistas. Unit was exactly as pictured, very clean with a lovely small garden at the back. The only downside was May was a bit overcast until noon or mid-afternoon. Easy walking to the Lighthouse Cafe, American Legion and other local restaurants. Definitely a return visit is on the horizon.

Casa de Balboa 227

Will definitely come back. Perfect location. The bay, the ocean, the pier, everything is close by but still away from the big crowds. The rental is clean and comfortable and well stocked. We ate most meals at the rental and there are plenty of dishes, utensils, pots/pans, etc. Rental also included essentials like salt/pepper, oil, dish soap, toilet paper, paper towels and small size shampoo & conditioner. Garage also had chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, etc. This is a great rental!!!

Peaceful and Loved It

This was perfect for me. Sadly my other family members could not attend but that's not on this property. Had a little noise from upstairs but nothing that was irritating me (footfalls, sound barrier not the greatest), but this property with the two porches and the view was perfect and peaceful. Next time, I'd like to NOT have to work and just enjoy and regroup. Kitchen had everything really, and although we didn't utilize the two bedrooms (as my other family members couldn't come), they were spacious and clean. I left earlier but again not on the property. Communication was quick and easy and I'd go back - absolutely! Thank you :)

Perfect stay for our first time in Newport

We were very please with the house overall. The location was easy access to both the bay and the beach. It was easy to rent bikes and boards nearby and our kids could run and use the playground. It was clean and fit all 5 of us just fine. We cooked most nights and the kitchen and grill accommodated what we needed. Special note to bring/refill the propane if you plan to grill or use the outside heaters. That was one thing we missed on the instructions. However - there's many places close by to do so.

Family Spring Break

This is a beautiful property. It's like staying in a 5 star resort. It's immaculately clean inside and out, it's beautifully appointed, and the area is very quiet. We came with teenage kids and our dogs and we had an amazing time! It's such a great location! You can walk to restaurants, activities, and the beach. We will definitely stay again!

Not what I was expecting

Given the extensive pre-rental contract & multiple emails stressing responsible use of the property, I was not expecting the unit to be in the condition we found. Nails were left in walls without decor, a toothbrush holder was on the bathroom floor to keep the door open, & a trash bag of old clothes was spilling onto the bedroom closet floor, leaving an unexpectedly shabby impression for the property. Also unknowable from the photos is the location of the public beach restroom immediately across the street. The presence of people loitering near the facility & scavenging thru the trash didn't bode well for using the patio and the fire pit. Privacy was also an issue, due to the choice of Roman shades on the front & rear windows. A different style of window treatment would have allowed renters to sit in the main room & not feel like one is on display if the shades are open.

Wonderful Stay, but . . .

Unit was well appointed and the view was magnificent. Convenience to beach was excellent. The problem was parking. The garage is too small. So you parked on the street. For 2 days we had a full size pickup and camper blocking our magnificent views; anther 2 times a construction pickup with a full backend did the same. When we went to the general parking and used a handicap space (we have a tag in the window) we were given a $62 ticket despite having previously checked with the police on our options. Bottom line--great place but not one if you get stuck looking at OBJECTIONABLE vehicles as we did 4 out of 8 days,

Clean, updated, good location

We have been going to Newport Beach for years and have stayed at quite a few different properties. This is one of our favorites. The location is great and is quiet at night. You do not get the noise of the boardwalk or the boulevard. The property was very clean when we arrived and had everything we needed. There is an ice maker and sharp knives and plenty of plates/cups/utensils. We would definitely stay here again.
