About this property

Balboa Island Duplex Near Ferry, Patio and Parking

  • Summary:

    Quintessential Balboa Island Duplex 4 Bed, 3 Bath duplex centrally located on the island with equal access to Balboa Ferry and historic Marine Avenue. Both units were fully remodeled in 2018.



    The Space:

    Curated Local Guest Experiences Included! (see below)



    129 Opal Ave A & B is professionally managed by Newport Beach Vacation Properties. This recently fully renovated Balboa Island 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom duplex beach house is centrally located on the island with close access to the Balboa Ferry and historic Marine Avenue. Luxury Fili D’Oro linens and towels are thoughtfully provided for every bed and every guest!



    The front and upper patios are perfect for family gatherings. Enjoy comfortable outdoor dining with patio tables chairs, and BBQ's.



    Both front and back units have fully equipped kitchens, dining areas, and large living rooms. Both units also have a master bedroom with a queen bed, a second bedroom with a bunk bed with a full and twin sized bed. The front unit has 2 en-suite bathrooms for each bedroom and the back unit has a shared bathroom between the 2 bedrooms.



    There is parking designated for 4 cars total, 2 in the tandem carport of the front unit and 2 in the garage of the back unit with direct access to the front unit. There is also a laundry room shared between both units complete with a washer and dryer.



    This beach house is in prime location on Balboa Island. Go for a walk around the island and stroll along historic Marine Avenue. Indulge in one of Balboa Island's famous frozen banana or a Balboa Bar. Explore the area via the ferry to visit the Balboa Village on the Peninsula and take in the views of the Balboa Pier.



    You can also book the front or back unit separately, if you have a smaller group. Ask us about details!



    As our guest, enjoy complimentary local experiences curated to help you make the most of Newport Beach. Activity offerings are seasonal and may include whale watching, harbor cruises, E-BIKE rentals, kayaks & paddle boards, and electric boat rentals.



    Other Important Details:

    - Thanks to our cool coastal breeze, most Newport Beach homes do not have air conditioning (AC). Every home comes with fans so you can open the windows and enjoy the beach air like a local. If AC is important to you, please double check if it is listed as an amenity.

    - Parking is provided at your rental unit. However, we cannot guarantee your vehicle will fit in the designated spot, so you may need to find street parking. Street parking can be impacted due to proximity to the beach.

    - We do our best to stay on top of any remodels or construction happening near our properties, but construction can pop up in the City of Newport Beach without notice. By city rule, construction is only permitted Monday through Friday, 7am to 6:30pm.

    *Refunds or credits will not be issued for any of the disclaimers above.*

Convenient

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We rented both upstairs and down for a family group of 12, ranging in age from 8 months to 72. It was nice to have the 5 with the kids upstairs with a kitchen for snacks. It was hot up there but we were not allowed to use the air conditioner. The beds were comfortable, but the rooms were small and had no dressers to unpack suitcases into. We brought patio chairs down from the upstairs patio and managed to gather together for dinner outside, since it was so warm in August. Both kitchens are beautiful and very well stocked with dishes and pans. Downstairs expects that if you don't eat outside, you'll sit in the high stools at the island. There are no lamps in the living rooms for reading, so we brought 3 of our own. Glad to have off-street parking and a place in the garage for our SUPs. It was a short walk to the ferry and a little market. We prefer the north bay beach, only 2 blocks away.

Island weekend

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall the property is very nice, well done on the remodel. It is a good location to the water and to the ferry. It is quite a ways to Marine. We rented on probably the hottest weekend of the whole year. Don't let the pictures of the air conditioners fool you, they didn't work. It was very hot.. The house was clean, but the cleaning lady was still clearing an hour after we were suppose to be able to get into the units.

Wonderful Balboa Island Beach House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay here. We rented both units for our family of 10. There was plenty of room for everyone. Both units were recently remodeled and had everything we needed. They were spotless and well maintained. They also both had AC which was wonderful as we were there during a heat wave. The location is excellent. There is a great coffee shop and restaurant around the corner. The ferry is one block away and the beach area is a few houses away. A big plus was the garage and additional parking spots as we never had to look for parking. We walked to the Main Street for frozen bananas, shopping and restaurants. It’s a nice walk along the bay. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely love to return and have recommended it to friends.
