Top Balboa Beach Hotel Reviews

Balboa Inn, On the Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the location, it was perfect since we had plans for the ferry ride to visit Catalina. Cute shops, boardwalk and restaurant options in the immediate area. Only downsize was not having a small fridge in the room."

Cozy Beach Lux Unit+King Bed & EV - Walk to Beach!

10/10 Excellent

"I have had the pleasure of staying in 2 of Jeremy’s Units when my family decided to extend our stay! They were both well decorated and could sleep mult people. The couches and the beds were very comfy! I would definitely stay again and would recommend it."

Beautiful beach front beach

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, and space if you are traveling with family. We are very familiar with the area and just wanted enough space for ourselves, our dog, and two teenage family members. This home was perfect, we were all comfortable, able to spread out, access the beach, and loved using the bikes. The house was clean, and all was as described. There are so many amenities as well, beach supplies, bikes, chairs, umbrellas. Very helpful we didn't even neeed to bring as much as we did.The kitchen is well equipped too! Beach access is right out the front door, we spent a lot of time in the sun and evening walks with our dog. Very relaxing and peaceful. Also as a former Newport local having a two car garage was a DREAM! If you know you know!"

Private Rooftop + Steps to the Beach | Chic Design | Seaside Style by AvantStay

10/10 Excellent

"This property was perfect for our family vacation. It was much bigger than pictured, newly renovated and clean, and the location was perfect and walking distance from the beach, restaurants, and shopping. We loved the rooftop and enjoyed the Bbq and fire pit. I would 100% book again!"

Remodeled 2BR Beach Cottage w/ Large Deck – 1 House from the Sand!

8/10 Good

"Overall, we were very happy with the property and property management team. I really appreciated the no stress check out. I gave a subpar for the check in process because we were dealing with a family emergency and I wish that they would have been more flexible with their check in process in a time of crisis. I would recommend this place to others as the place was very convenient to the beach and restaurants, clean (handled taking the garbage cans out on garbage days) and had a great layout which made it feel larger than square footage. We slept 4 comfortably but I think 6 might be tight for sleeping."
