Beach stay
Great location, right across from beach. Walking distance to many amenities. All the beach essentials in the garage was fantastic. Only constructive criticisms would be sheets have visible stains albeit clean but still.

Cozy Haven In A Perfect Location
Balboa Sea Escape exceeded all my expectations. Every detail was thoughtfully considered and made for a lovely stay. The kitchen was well-stocked, the bed was super comfortable, parking was convenient (the garage is indeed small even for a compact car so I parked there once and then there was easy street parking the rest of the time), and the location was perfect for exploring the area by foot or by car. I was traveling alone and felt completely safe and at ease. Communication with the owners was easy and helpful. It's a beautiful space with a cozy atmosphere. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat. Five stars!!!

Very Relaxing Beach Week
Our stay was perfection! Lovely small cottage/apt, had everything we needed. Comfy bed, fully-stocked kitchen. We enjoyed the patio for our breakfast and coffee. Used the grill and kitchen. Will definitely use this one again :)

2nd time
2nd time staying here. Love the location. Easy to beach and restaurants. Very clean and enjoyable place to stay. Easily one of the better places to stay if parking is an issue no issues finding street parking at any time if you don't use the garage.

Nice little apartment for two - Review of Apt B
Pros * Location, Location, Location - within walking distance to both piers, lots of stores and restaurants, and just across the street from the beach! * Very clean * Comfy bed - slept great! * Nice and very well stocked kitchen - we would have appreciated more than two packets of coffee for a 5-night stay but it held us over until we could buy coffee. * The outdoor patio and table is a nice place to have morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. * This apartment set back from the street which is nice. Cons * Sound - overall quiet but at night I could hear snoring and coughing from Apt B as well as phone notifications. There is sound from Balboa Blvd as well but it subsides at night. * Figuring out how to get the mini-split heating/cooling system set right (even with the instructions) but we did and were then comfortable. * Sofa isn’t the most comfortable but worked for us. * The description of a very small shower is accurate. It worked for me (5’4”, 130lb) and my husband was alright (5’11”, 185) but if you are a very large person, it will quite cramped. * The interior of the bathroom medicine cabinet could use some attention and the paint is beginning to peel off the bathroom door and walls. I only had one communication with the property manager while we were there and they responded immediately. We would definitely stay here again!
