Located on the beautiful North bay front in Newport Beach, this two unit home is a great Balboa Island bay front getaway. This newly remodeled 2 story back and front unit allows vacationers to enjoy bay front living at its finest. A beautifully designed open-air layout, vacationers have found the perfect family home.

This 5 bedroom, 2 unit home is perfect for your whole family or group of friends. The front unit was designed for entertaining and the ground floor patio allows vacationers to enjoy bay front living. The 2 story, 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath front house has a generous master bedroom facing the bay front, with plenty of windows to capture the essence of island living. Each bedroom has their own bathroom to complete the upstairs living space. Downstairs there is a spacious living room with a dining area just off the fully equipped kitchen. The kitchen contains all the essentials with direct access to the garage. There is an oversized one car garage with a washer and dryer included in the space. Located off the garage on the street is an extra oversized parking spot. The back unit is loft style, with 2 bedrooms on the upper level, with a view of the harbor out the floor to ceiling windows of the unit. Please note that with this being a loft style unit, the bedrooms do not have separating doors. The master bedroom, while on the second floor, is open to the living space below. The second bedroom is more private, with an enclosed stairwell tucked away past the kitchen. 2 full baths in the unit, 1 in the master bedroom and the other downstairs near the full kitchen and open living area. There is a 1 car garage, including a washer and dryer at the foot of the stairs of the entry of the home. The garage can also be accessed through a stairway with access from the dining area of the unit.

Explore the beach on the Balboa Peninsula via the ferry off Agate Ave. The Balboa Village and Balboa Pier are also a short ferry ride away. On the Balboa Peninsula you can relax along the pristine beaches, go surfing nearby, check out the Balboa Fun Zone, and grab a bite to eat at one of the many restaurants. The walkability of the property is excellent, and the premises is a close stroll away from the Marine Ave. shops and restaurants that make Balboa Island a worldwide vacation destination.

Please note that there is construction currently taking place across the alley on Apolena Ave.

Great home for relaxing

Had the family there for 5 days and enjoyed every minute.
Would like to see an earlier check-in, and later check out, such as in by 2:00, out by 12:00p.m. When that many people are staying for a period of time, and you need to be out by 10:00 a.m., that's a little difficult.

Reply: Thank you for the review, David. We are so thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay so much! We do apologize that the check in and check out times were a little difficult for you, we would have loved to honor an early check in and late check out if it worked with our cleaners and inspectors schedules, but unfortunately we did not receive any requests. The reason we have these fairly common check in and check out times is to ensure that our cleaners and inspectors have plenty of time to make sure our homes are all ready for our guests. It allows us time to address any issues left from previous guests as well. If a home is ever ready earlier than the time of check in, we will always notify our guests so they can start enjoying their vacation immediately! We do hope to host you and your family again in the future!

Above and beyond our expectations. One of our best family vacations. The layout of the home was perfect. It was so easy to watch the kids on the beach. Close to public dock and the kids had a blast fishing. Short walk to frozen bananas. Great restaurants close by.

Reviewer Comments:
The house was beautiful, spacious and in the perfect location. Great patio and beautiful view from the master bedroom. We very much enjoyed our trip and would stay here again. The cleaning prior to our arrival could have been better (kitchen trash needed emptying, baby bottle with milk found under a bed, etc.), but it didn't take away from our stay. Also, not the fault of this home's owner, but the people staying in the house across the street were extremely loud one night until about midnight. However, overall, we loved staying here and recommend it.

Beautiful Balboa Island Home

It was a wonderful trip for my family. The house was wonderful and the location spectacular. My five year old grandson played on the sandy beach right in front of the property.

Great location and pretty easy access. Loved having a paddle board, beach chairs, and a scooter we could use. The patio was also really great! Only problem was the kitchen sink was backing up with nasty stuff and smelled awful. They wanted to charge $400 for maintenance to come, but it was our last day so we had to make do with no kitchen sink. Other than that, great stay. Thanks!
