The place was perfect for my husband and I, very cute, beachy, and clean, super comfy bed too! We loved that it was right on Balboa blvd. bc it was a short walk to beach and bayside. We also loved bbq’ing and sitting at the table on the courtyard. Convenient that laundry machines were in the garage along with lots of chairs and boogie boards for guests to borrow. Janet was quick at getting back to us when we had questions which we really appreciated. We will definitely be back! 10/10 recommendation from us!

Everything was great as listed. Easy beach access. We parked on the street usually right in front. Everything else we were there for was easy to get even with the heavier spring break traffic.

Wonderful!

We had a lovely stay at this property! The location was perfect, just a quick walk to the beach and surrounded by many shops and restaurants! The property manager was very helpful when we needed to store our bags before checkin as well as accommodating our need for a late check out! Definitely recommend!

Great Location!

The check in/out process was so easy, well stocked and we loved the location right between the Ocean and Bay, we watched the boat parade right behind the Unit. I would however suggest having a couple blankets stocked in the Closet, it got a bit chilly at night. I would definitely recommend this Unit and come back to stay again.

Great locale

Great little place. Loved the location. Only things that could be improved would be a bigger bathroom and shower and smaller kitchen. And rug under bed. It also smelled like smoke when AC wasn’t on (when we first got there).

Conventent

Went to Balboa Xmas Boat parade . Walking distance. Couldn’t fit car in garage, and lucky found parking on side street, otherwise area is paid parking. Had trouble figuring out heater, but had warm comforter on bed. Screen door needs adjusting didn’t close . The only other con was creamer packets were left out and spoiled. So if you like morning coffee , buy creamer put in fridge. The owner was very nice and helped me with WiFi. I appreciate such. It was great for the time needed. Love this area and felt safe. I’d rent again
