This was our third stay at the property since 2019. We have stayed in the upstairs unit as well. Honestly, it just keeps getting better. Very well maintained and upgrades noticed each time we have stayed. Communication if first rate! It will continue to be our first choice in SoCal!
We stayed at the oceanfront property on Balboa - we enjoyed the long walks and the downtown shops and restaurants. Balboa Island is a great place to vacation and we loved the VRBO property.
As we did last year we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was immaculate. And everyone was more than kind that we dealt with.The weather was ideal, and Balboa turned out to be just as wonderful as we thought it would be
Beautiful balboa vacation home offering excellent views and a short walk to town and restaurants. We really enjoyed our time here and communications with Julie were excellent!
Great place with the family to ring in the New Year!! Few better locations in So Cal than Balboa and we had a great house right on the water a few steps down from the ferry to Newport. The accommodations were fantastic, the communication with the property manager was top notch and we can’t wait to stay here again! Thanks for a great week on Balboa.
This is our 2nd stay at this location, but our first time in the lower unit. It was everything we hoped it would be and more. We spent lots of time in the living room and kitchen area with the doors open to the outside. We had coffee on the patio, sat on the sand in the afternoons, made dinner "at home" in the stocked and roomy kitchen and then back to the patio to watch the sunset and the Christmas lights come on. It was perfect. And, we can't wait to come back.
We have stayed at several vacation rentals in the area and this is by far our favorite. The home is very well cared for and the management is very attentive. The view is the absolute best! We have rented this home twice and we will definitely be back!
Super special location with beautiful views of harbor. Enjoyed short walks to shops and dining. Fun ferry rides and walks around the island. Home was perfect and super accommodating management. All our needs and desires were met :)
The location was great as we were a short walk from everything Balboa and Newport have to offer. Plenty of room for five adults and one infant, and the pictures properly reflect the decor. Great stay!!!!
Great location, with perfect views. Beautiful neighborhood- great walking the island everyday. I felt at home - very well kept home, cleanliness was impeccable. I can’t wait to stay again. Love this house!!!!
My family loved our stay at this beautiful home. The house had everything a family would need. It’s beautifully decorated with a wonderful view. The property managers were great!
