A one-of-a-kind, man-made treasure, Balboa Island is a gem whether you drive, walk, bike or take the Balboa Island Ferry to the island. Balboa Island’s Marine Avenue is home to chic coastal shops featuring unique nautical designs, stylish beach fashions, art and jewelry. It’s also home to quaint Balboa Island restaurants and bistros serving up a variety of dishes bursting with flavor. The selections on Balboa Island go beyond the local fresh seafood of the day with flavors of Italian, Mexican, and French-Swiss mixed in to the culinary choices.

There may be nothing more iconic than the island’s two famous desserts, the Balboa Bar and Frozen Banana. The local sweet tooth treasures have been mainstays for nearly 75 years, and have been imitated and replicated, including on the hit TV show “Arrested Development.” The tasty treats are dipped in chocolate and covered with a variety of coatings from nuts and sprinkles to cookie crumbs.

If you want to visit the DISNEYLAND RESORT area, our property is located just under 20 miles to the resort and it's two main parks - DISNEYLAND and DISNEY'S CALIFORNIA ADVENTURE. Make sure you check out STAR WARS LAND! After a great day at the parks, you can return back to your beach front oasis, refresh, relax, and take a stroll down to the beach.

If you are interested in the Laguna Beach PAGEANT OF MASTERS during July, this is a fantastic place to stay. Lyft or Uber is the way to get to the event. You can enjoy a nice glass of wine on the patio before your ride takes you to Laguna Beach.

Additional local attractions include Disneyland, Knott’s Berry Farm, Aquarium of the Pacific, South Coast Plaza, and the Fun Zone!

Great place on Balboa Island
We were participating in a paddling training camp at the Newport Aquatic Centre. It was a very comfortable space for 2 adults but could have fit 4 if needed. We really appreciated the well-equipped kitchen as we were cooking healthy meals at home. Property manager was very responsive. Only took advantage of the included e-bike rental one day because we were otherwise busy - it was a wonderfully fun way to explore the area.

Agate
Wonderful!!! We stayed 7 nights at this apartment. Could not have been happier with the location. Parking was a luxury if anyone has stayed on Balboa Island knows. Would love to return. Kitchen has everything you would need, we hosted a small dinner group and had plenty of room. Balcony provides added space for morning coffee and cocktails. Very happy with our choice.

Fantastic Location
Great place to stay, quiet at night but Balboa Island is just amazing. The kitchen is adequately stocked, but if you are planning on doing some extensive cooking bring your spices, etc. Beds are comfortable, and love the fact this place has an AC!!

We wanted to visit Balboa Island in the "off" season and it was just as we hoped. Quiet and lovely weather, and the location of this rental worked out perfect for us. We loved being able to open the French doors and letting the weather in. Property Manager was very responsive and helpful, and also welcomed us nicely. Also loved the proximity to Todos Santos which had a great coffee bar in the morning and excellent food and service as well.

Awesome Property
Property was in a perfect location. A short walk to the strip of shops / restaurants on balboa island. Hop right on to the ferry to get over to the balboa peninsula. Have an awesome Mexican restaurant right underneath. Convenient effortless parking. Had the pleasure of hearing a band at the balboa park which you can see from the balcony. Peaceful quant little spot perfect for a family of 4-5.
