Both units have open concept living spaces, with dining areas, family rooms that include flat screen Smart TV's, and Wi-Fi that covers the whole property.

Both the front and back units have a master bedroom with a queen bed, a second bedroom with a triple twin bunk bed, and an additional king bed in the lower back studio unit. Both units also have queen pull out beds in the couches in each living room.

Just a short ferry ride away you can explore the beaches, go surfing nearby, check out the 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.

The house is small, but it was clean and just enough room for our family vacation. The location is amazing. The neighborhood is like a Hallmark movie. We had the best time and will be back soon.

This place was great and right in the middle of everything you’d hope to be around in Newport Beach. The neighborhood is very quiet, so something to keep in mind depending on your plans. Overall, would highly recommend.

We loved this rental! It was so cute and totally worked for us. It's how the homes on Balboa were when I was growing up, so it's exactly what we were looking for. Super cute, clean, and quiet. Close to the ferry and totally decent parking.

Reply: Thank you so much for the review, Heather! We're so glad you loved the place & that it brought back some memories! We hope to host you again!

This is a perfect beach cottage for a small family. The three kids loved the triple bunkbeds! We love the island and enjoyed our stay. This cottage has everything you need to be comfortable and happy. Parking on the street was not a problem - there was always space near the cottage. This location is great,.
Being near the ferry made it easy to take a little excursion across the bay to the "big" beach. We love Balboa - thank you!

Reply: Thank you for the lovely review, Cynthia! We are so glad that you had an enjoyable stay and we hope to host you again when you return to Balboa!
