Custom materials and furnishings have been carefully chosen for a monochromatic setting that is relaxing, yet energizing at the same time: the perfect combination for any successful vacation stay!

Locals know the three-mile-long stretch with the harbor on one side and broad, sandy California beaches on the other as “the Peninsula.” The Balboa Peninsula has two piers with a view of a shoreline, surfers, and sunbathers spanning for miles. A walk straight down Main Street brings you to the historic Balboa Pavilion.



The Balboa Peninsula has many sit down restaurants and quick food stops for people hitting the sand for a day at Balboa Beach, and the variety of bars and live music makes the Peninsula a regional nightlife destination. Some of the places locals hang out for good seafood and a casual fun atmosphere are the Crab Cooker and Woody’s Wharf. Anglers can bring home dinner from one of the sport-fishing vessels and whale watching enthusiasts can see some of nature’s most beautiful creatures up close, as Balboa Peninsula rentals and adventure boats launch early and often. A trip to the Peninsula wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the Balboa Fun Zone, where the Ferris wheel has stood for years!

Lovely home and location

This stay was booked last minute as we were supposed to be going to Maui. Despite it not being Hawaii, we were extremely satisfied with the house, the amenities and its proximity to the beach. The neighborhood felt very safe and we were able to walk to everywhere we went. Plenty of restaurants to choose from and the grocery store is literally at the end of the street. Would recommend this location and home.

We really enjoyed staying at this condo! It was clean, offered lots of dishes and cooking ware in the kitchen, new towels, fantastic location, and the large sliding door in the living room that opens up to the patio is amazing. We were very impressed with the responsiveness of the management company. Great communication! It was the perfect place for my family to stay and we will definitely consider this property again in the future.

Beautiful Beach House in a Great Location

The house was amazing! We loved the decor and layout. Our family spent most of our time enjoying the living room/kitchen area. The weather in Newport Beach was very nice (68 degrees) considering it was winter time (and snowing) back home in Philadelphia. The location of the house is prime. We walked to the beach in @ 5 minutes and the local grocery store/strip mall was also within walking distance, We will definitely book this location again!

Wonderful place in a perfect location for a beach getaway. Nice home overall. Needs some personal touches. Pots and pans were really bad and beds uncomfortable. the house was not thoroughly cleaned (hence toenails on dresser, outside table and patio not clean).

Fabulous Rental

This was a fabulous rental in a great location. It was very clean and new looking. The beds were comfortable with good quality sheets. The kitchen was beautiful and very well stocked with lots of extras! The bottle of wine was a nice touch! The patio was amazing with the disappearing sliding doors. This was a very quiet street and only a couple of blocks to the beach. I would love to return to this rental again. Thank you!

Amazing Place!

Our stay was exactly what we had hoped for ! Beautiful place great location everything you need . A warning on the garage parking . Maneuvering in the small space with an insanely steep slope is not for the faint of heart. Only a small to midsize car has a chance of making it in with room for the other units vehicle and curbside parking in the neighborhood is practically non existent so keep that in mind. Otherwise a fantastic place !

Great place, great location!

We very much enjoyed our stay. Everything was as advertised, photos were an accurate depiction. The layout of the property was perfect for our family. Neighborhood was super safe - quick walk to beach and nice little park if you walk just around a couple of corners. We easily walked to restaurants/grocery store but it was quiet and off the main roads. We found the amenities to be sufficient, although some of the cookware (pots/pans) have seen better days. Beds were comfortable and rooms cozy. The updated bathrooms and kitchen are a nice clean touch. We enjoyed using the fireplace for ambience at night and lounging on the sofa. I will agree that the driveway in the garage is incredibly steep, we opted for street parking instead since we visited in off peak season. Will also agree with another review that the floors were fairly dirty upon arrival, I did a quick vacuum when we got there and all was good again. Had a couple questions upon check in/arrival and Scott was quick to respond and very helpful. Would certainly stay here again anytime and recommend to anyone looking for a clean, quiet and comfortable beach experience!

Nice, quiet neighborhod!

We would definitely recommend staying here. Everything was as listed, except for the garage situation. It's very impractical. After you book they say you will be parking at your own risk. That being said, the street parking worked out just fine for us! We never had to park more than a block away. This is a great location! Easy walk to the boardwalk/beach with shopping and restaurants.Everything in the home was clean and in working order. The beds were quite comfortable and the curtains blocked the sun nicely for sleeping. The couch situation wasn't the most comfortable, but we didn't spend much time indoors, so it wasn't a huge factor for us. Would recommend!
