Beach stay for Soccer Showcase In Norco

We opted to stay at the beach and drive the 50 minutes to the soccer fields for a college showcase. The drive was EASY. The house was PERFECT! I had my daughter and 2 other girls on the team, there was so much to do and the girls could walk around and explore on their own. Ann was great with communication. We made dinners some nights, the kitchen had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend and would absolutely stay here again!

Perfect Beach Getaway!

Our family of five absolutely loved our stay at Anne's property. The panoramic beach view alone was worth the price! Loved being close to many restaurants as well as the beach, but still found it to be relatively quiet and and peaceful at night. The home was fully stocked and we appreciated the little touches like dimmer switches on the lights and the availability of beach toys. We definitely hope to return!

A little underwhelming

Location was wonderful. So is the host family. Unfortunately, the place is a bit rundown. We’re having a hard time opening and closing the windows and the shades were falling apart. Also the beach toys and chairs that were mentioned are all rusty. I didn’t even feel comfortable, touching any of them because it looked quite dangerous. Which that let us down a bit we were really relying on those for our trip. Also taking consideration there is no laundry detergent for the washer and dryer. Maybe I was spoiled with other houses that I’ve rented but there’s always been things like coffee creamer and detergent for us to use, but this house didn’t have those extras. aside from that it was a good house.

Wonderful Beach Vacation

This property is right on the beach and very convenient to everything Newport Beach has to offer. We rented bikes, stayed for hours on the beach, and even enjoyed a bonfire right next to the Pacific Ocean. The rental is exactly as described. The kitchen is fully stocked which allowed us to do a few meals and avoid eating every meal out. I highly recommend this rental unit.

Loved Every Minute of our California Beach Vacation!

We had an amazing week at this fabulous, beach front property! The views were breathtaking, the nightly bonfires on the beach will be treasured memories as will the breathtaking sunsets, ocean waves, bike and ferry rides, “cronuts” and street tacos!! Thank you Ann for being an amazing, responsive and generous host! We can’t wait for our next trip to Newport.

Great experience......

Clean accommodations, responsive staff and absolutely beautiful area. The only "problem" was the stairs due to age of guests. That was of my own doing and we chose the upstairs unit. I would definitely stay here again, just in the downstairs unit. Thank you for the fabulous vacation.

Perfect beach location

We came here with our exchange student from Pakistan. This cute beach house has a location that can’t be beat! You are literally across from the ocean and directly on the bike path that goes thru Newport. The views are amazing! The beds were super comfy. We stayed in upstairs unit so no little outside area to hang out in, but it was no problem for us. If you are looking for a fun relaxing Newport beach house, look no further. We would definitely stay again. Much better than a hotel.

Great property and great location!

Property was a hit for our long weekend in the area for my husband's sports tournament. It is close to many amenities, beach access, boardwalk and great food nearby. The property itself is clean and well kept with all the necessary things that one needs to feel at home while away from home. We had contact with the property owner during our stay and had prompt response and great customer service through the entire process. Highly recommend!

Fun short stay at the beach

We had a fun time at this very ideal beach location. It was so fun to enjoy the boogie boards and bikes that were offered by the owner - little need for a car :) This property does not have air so the fans and cooler nighttime weather are very helpful. We were also grateful for the washer/dryer with so many wet towels and bathing suits - bring your own detergent. Thank you Ann for making this such an easy in & out trip!

About the host

Hosted by Ann

Our parents purchased this home in 1969 to provide a beach home for my 2 sets of grandmothers to live in (dad's mom downstairs and mom's mom upstairs). This has been a three generation family gathering spot and we continue my parents' legacy of providing a space for families to gather and be together. It is an older beach house that is ready for a new generation of families and/or friends to make memories!

Why they chose this property

The location can not be beat! The Balboa Ferry and Balboa Pier, fishing, stand up paddle boarding at the bay front, a walk to arcades... all favorites for our family. But - the best - is a long sunny day at the beach with frisbee, football, friends, sand and fun!

Walk 4 blocks to rent a paddle board or kayak, take a harbor cruise or a boat to Catalina. One of our favorite past times, rent a cruiser bike and peddle the boardwalk to Huntington Beach or Lido Island.

What makes this property unique

Well appointed kitchen, amazing ocean views and 4 blocks from Catalina Flyer, fishing boats and ferry to Balboa Island
