About the property

This quaint 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom back unit Balboa Island charmer is just a quick walk away from the waterfront and is a perfect place for your next family vacation.

This rear vacation home is made up of an upstairs with 2 bedrooms, living area and a full kitchen and bathroom and a lower ground floor studio with the 3rd bedroom and bathroom. The home has an open concept living space upstairs, with a large dining table, a family room that includes a flat screen Smart TV and the entire home has Wi-Fi. The living room couch includes a queen pull-out bed in the lower unit. A galley-style kitchen includes a refrigerator, microwave, gas range, a traditional coffee maker, as well as a Keurig and everything you will need for cooking your meals.

The master bedroom includes a queen bed, ample closet space and natural light. The second bedroom is outfitted with a triple twin bunk bed, additional closet space, and is perfect for families. Each room has ceiling fans, and windows can be opened to take advantage of the regular sea breeze on cooler days and at night. The downstairs studio is the 3rd bedroom with a king bed, en-suite bathroom, living area and a secluded outdoor patio with seating and a grill. Perfect for extended family.

Please note that this unit has 2 separate entry ways. One up the stairs to the top unit. The lower part of the unit can be accessed on the ground level by the French doors in the courtyard patio area, where you will find the studio style king bed and bath. From upstairs, you must go outside and use the stairs to access the studio down below. Please ask questions if you are confused by the lay out.

There is a 1 car garage behind the ground level studio unit, as well as a washer and dryer.

This adorable back beach cottage is close to the Balboa Ferry that can take you across the bay to the Fun Zone or the many pristine beaches along the Newport Peninsula. You can also walk down the path along the island beaches to Marine Avenue to grab a bite to eat or check out the local shops.

*City construction is happening in the alley and parking in the garage will be inaccessible until Nov 27th 2024.

We didn’t realize the 3rd bedroom was a separate unit, so this is a great rental for groups.

Family Vacation

Emilee L.

We came for our daughters wedding with 4 children under 5 and 6 adults. The space fit us all perfect and was in an ideal location for us. The bathrooms need a little update and the shower upstairs needed the doors to be fixed, but other than that, it was a great place for a great price!

Reply: Emilee, thank you for choosing us for such a special occasion! We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. We hope to host you again!

Great Place to Stay!

Scott

This was the perfect place for our vacation stay! Location was awesome. Place was clean and spacious. Everything we needed was provided (soap, shampoo, conditioner, trash bags, dish soap, etc). Only complaint was that the air conditioner wasn’t super effective against the heat. But we would gladly stay here again!

This property was as amazing as the photos look! The host provided regular and clear communication via text, email, and the Hospitality app. The beds were comfortable, all amenities were in good working order, the property was very clean and well maintained. This property fit our needs perfectly, our 5 day stay was far too short and we are looking so forward to returning soon.

Perfect Spring Break!

Overall Comment

I stayed at this perfect location with my daughter and her friends. I had the lower studio and the girls had the upper area. It was a cute, clean and a spacious property. Walking distance to all the best things to do on the island. Very close to the ferry. I would stay here again!
