Great home base for a quick visit
We come in every year for the holidays to visit family. It is a great location with access to Balboa and Newport. It is right in between the bay and the coastline. Fair warning the interior doors are not solid so if you need quiet for littles to nap this may not be the place for you. The attached patio is nice to sit and enjoy the gorgeous weather.

Beach Living
We have been visiting the Balboa Peninsula for years and this place is right in the heart of it all. The condo had all of the amenities you need for a pleasant stay. Below are my Pro's and Con's of the condo: Pro 1 Location. Easy access to beach and shopping. We rode bikes and walked everywhere. 2 Garage was small but we were able to store our bikes and scooters safely without having to drag them upstairs. 3 Comfortable bed and sheets. Don't know what type of material the bed linens were but they were soft and comfy. 4 Outside deck was great for morning coffee and cocktails at sunset. Plenty of room to leave all of our beach gear and not have to bring it inside. Con's 1 It's an old bathroom so don't expect a lot of pressure from the shower head. 2 No fan in second bedroom and it gets warm with double bunk beds and limited air flow, bring a fan for that room. 3 We didn't cook much but I would say that the kitchen did not have a lot of appliances. I couldn't find a coffee maker. The check in was effortless and communication with Landlord was great. We would stay here again.

Great stay
A minute to the beach and we kept our car parked and biked along the boardwalk. Had a few questions for the owner and he responded quickly and helped us make arrangements.

Great stay, location and value.
Great property on Balboa Island. Perfect location. Bunk beds are uncomfortable for an adult and the shower ran either freezing cold or scalding hot. No in between. But we enjoyed the stay and would do it again.

Good family fun
The owner recommended a bike rental company that delivered bikes. The bike rental was everyone favorite part. I recommend renting the bikes, but double check best practices for locking them up. We will be renting another property from the owner soon. Thanks for the fun family memories!

Fabulous stay
The location is perfect. The outdoor seating area was so spacious with a partial ocean view. The bedeooms are huge. Everything was provided, though the boogie boards need to be replaced and there was only one chair and one 1980's lounger that was available for the 6 of us. Very convenient to have a parking garage. Close to restaurants and rentals. Overall I would definately stay again.

The old retro decor needs to go and the bunk beds are springy but Jason sent a brand new bbq after we found the old one died and new deck chairs . The fridge handle is still taped up But it works fine .

I Wanted to Like It
I want to first say that Jason was fantastic. He was available when needed, and even allowed us to check in early when we arrived sooner than expected. The location of the room is fantastic, however the title of "stunning remodel" I believe is a bit misleading. Television wires were hanging everywhere and were covered by pieces of cloth. The furniture in the room looked dated and worn out. Rust was apparent on the furniture in the kitchen. The fridge door handle was barely hanging on, and the ice maker was broken (creating chunks of ice we had to dig out to use). The bunk beds are very uncomfortable, noisy, and caused me quite a bit of hip and back pain when I slept on it. The closet is full of board games, all with missing pieces and most of them unplayable, as well as an outdoor chest full of beach toys and a basketball that was flat. The Wifi only works in the kitchen and living room, and was not able to connect to the bedrooms or bathroom. I really wanted to love this place for the location, but overall even though the customer service was great, my family won't be back to this room. This room provides very minimal and basic accommodations, as opposed to other rooms we have stayed at in the area.
