Bayside Retreat w/Large Patio and Bay Views

Summary:

4 Bedroom 3 Bath, bayside single family home. Nicely furnished with a wrap-around patio with bay views, 2 living rooms, gas BBQ and laundry room with 3 car garage. The home includes four bedrooms, all on the second floor. A king bed graces the bay view master bedroom with en- suite. The second bedroom has a king bed and side chairs, the third bedroom, two twins with a peek-a-boo view of the ocean.



The Space:

Come on over to the bayside! This classic four-bedroom home is steps from the bay and across the boulevard from the beach. A wrap-around patio with bay views, a living room and a spacious family room, three car garage parking, large brick patio and updated bathrooms make this rental an ideal home away from home.



LIVING and DINING



The front living room has a wicker couch and two side chairs, coffee table, fireplace and plenty of windows to take in bay views. In the corner, a glass topped table with seating for four is great for meals or games – wood-look tile floors downstairs make clean up easy. The adjacent dining room has an oval table to seat eight, and more bay views! On the other side of the pass-through window, the compact kitchen has a microwave, dishwasher and plenty of cabinet and tile counters for storing and preparing meals. A coffee and wine bar provide the perfect place to make a refreshing drink to enjoy on the patio. Step down one step into the large family room with wicker couch and loveseat, a side chair, TV and a ceiling fan. Sliders here open to the brick patio to expand indoor living space.



In the hallway, a newly remodeled full bath with cool claw-foot tub and a separate walk in shower provides easy access for “fresh from the beach” showers via a side door. A laundry room just off the kitchen has a full size washer and dryer and entry from the brick patio.



BED and BATH



The home includes four bedrooms, all on the second floor. A king bed graces the bay view master bedroom with en- suite “Jack & Jill” style bath featuring custom tile work and a walk-in shower. The room also has a futon and desk with chair. The second bedroom has a king bed and side chairs, the third bedroom, two twins. You can sneak a peek-a-boo view of the ocean from the corner of this bedroom. The last bedroom is ideal for the kids with a twin over double bunk bed and a queen bed, a flat panel TV and direct access to the second Jack & Jill bath with walk in shower.

• BR2: Guest bedroom with king bed, shared bath

• BR3: Guest bedroom with two twins, shared bath

• BR4: Guest bedroom with twin over double bunk bed and a queen bed, shared bath



OUTDOOR SPACE



The huge wrap-around patio on Bay Avenue has tables, chairs, an umbrella and calming bay views. Grill family favorites on the back patio with easy access to the kitchen. Sharing meals together while watching sailboats on the bay or enjoying beverages under the stars will make your time at the beach unforgettable.



The garage has space for three cars and a Tesla "home charger."



THE LOCATION



Ten-acre Marina Park, four blocks away, with The Lighthouse Restaurant, an outdoor fitness circuit, basketball courts and picnic area allows visitors to soak up city and bay views. The kids can visit the playground with mini-lighthouse and run through plenty of grassy space. The elementary school is close by as well on the oceanfront. Kids will love the playground, accessible to visitors when school is not in session.



Balboa Village is about fifteen minutes away on foot, but worth the trip. Visit Harborside in the historic Balboa Pavilion for amazing views and unbeatable happy hour deals (try the fried calamari!) every day, or seafood in the bayfront dining room. Other local’s favorites are Cruisers, Newport Landing and casual Great Mex. Take the ferry to explore Balboa Island and its many boutiques and eateries or rent a bike and pedal the bike path (boardwalk) to access the entire Peninsula.



Go north to the Newport Pier area with more shops and local eateries. Purchase freshly caught fish direct from fishermen at the Dory Fleet Fish Market, established in 1891. Seaside Donuts serves up fresh donuts 24/7, and 21 Ocean Front and Fly ‘n’ Fish offer more upscale dining. Charlie’s Chili on McFadden Square is a “don’t miss” breakfast spot for many out-of-towners.



The area offers boundless options for family fun!

This house was perfect for our group. Plenty of space for everyone. The rooms are very spacious and the 3 full bathrooms were very helpful. The kitchen is stocked with everything you'd need as well. The neighbors are very friendly and the bay side is nice and quiet.

We came down here on a fall break trip with our two families 10 people in total. We loved the layout of this home. All the bedrooms are upstairs and entertaining on the main level also love that we didn’t have any neighbors connecting to us. The location of this home is great. The only downside is if your kids love a body board The beach right across the street has pretty high waves. We had to go up a few streets where the wave breaks were but really wasn’t to big of a deal. The house was very clean and slept everybody very comfortably. Also loved that there was a two car garage easy to get in and out of and that the kitchen was so well stocked had everything we needed. Thank you we will be back.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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 appreciate the remodel changes at the W. Bay Ave. beach house. Our family enjoys the location to the bay as well as the ocean front. There is plenty of room for entertaining and family game nights. We have enjoyed this property for our annual family vacation for a number of years. A few constructive suggestions include new firm King mattresses, new dishwasher & re-installation of Master Bedroom fan to eliminate humming noise.

Great family house

If you're looking for a ritzy experience, this is not for you. If you're looking for a comfy family experience, you found it! We cooked a fantastic Thanksgiving dinner in the kitchen and enjoyed it in the open dining room. We loved this place. It's eclectic, but brings memories of staying at your grandparent's house.

Unit Not Cleaned and in Poor Condition

We arrived to find the unit apparently hadn’t been cleaned, or whoever cleaned it decided to do a poor job. The sink was full of dirty dishes, toilets were dirty and unflushed, with feces in the bowl and on the lid. Trash cans were not emptied and some trash was scattered about. There were wads animal hair in numerous spots. The unit overall also felt old and like it needed significant upgrades. The only bright spot was the service of the renter - they refunded our stay quickly with relative ease (though didn’t really have a choice given the condition of the place). I recommend looking elsewhere.

Bayview House Half Way There

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My husband and I rented the home to spend the week with our family. It has a great layout for a family. The bathrooms have all been remodeled and they are beautiful. There is new vinyl flooring on the first floor. The patio has a great view of the bay, as do many of the rooms. It is 1.5 blocks from the ocean and a bay beach area, a great location!I think the house is halfway there. The house could be a jewel if they finished the upgrades such as replacing the very dirty carpeting upstairs. It grossed me out to walk on it and made the bottoms of our feet dirty. There are only blinds/curtains in the TV room in the back of the house, and those are old and worn out. The front living room, dining room, and kitchen are a fishbowl with no blinds/curtains making them unusable once it’s dusk. Everyone can see into the house and it’s creepy. The furniture in both of the living rooms is very uncomfortable to sit in. The kitchen appliances are very outdated. The instructions tell you to cool your items before putting them in the fridge, a first for me. The stove microwave was broken and there was one on the counter taking up space. The dishwasher & coffee maker is ancient. The light over the kitchen sink didn’t work. The dish drainer was rusted and dirty.The master bedroom bedding was old and gross. The blinds that are in the upstairs rooms need to be replaced. Overall, the house was not very clean, with lots of cobwebs. The mattresses are very uncomfortable. Due to road-noise, it’s hard to sleep with the windows open in any upstairs room. I called the management company about the slow drains in the master shower and sink, and they were prompt in sending a repairman out. They also sent a “new” dish rack, but it was used and dirty. It would have been nice to know the BBQ as natural gas. We thought the tank was missing and could not use it for two days. Beautiful loca

Perfect spot to relax

Trip was four couples to relax. Perfect location as it’s two blocks from beach and can see the harbor while sipping morning coffee or afternoon cocktail on the front patio. Very nice bathrooms and four bedrooms. Only slight negative is one bedroom is twins. No A/C but ok with windows open and fans on. Very quite area but within walking or bike ride to several restaurants & bars. There are several options for delivery also.. First time to visit Newport Beach and it was a hit.

Family vacation on Balboa Peninsula

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: Even tho the weather was dreary and overcast...we had a wonderful time! The house was perfect for 3 generations of family and we all had space! The home was clean and had a well stocked kitchen...with the exception of the microwave that did not work. We especially loved the dining area and the corner patio where we could all gather. The property is in a quiet residential neighborhood and close to bay, ocean, Newport and Balboa. Some household items: bedcovers and blinds are showing signs of wear and tear. We were disappointed that we got no response to the microwave not working. Burr White was well prepared for check in and check out.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very nice house and very clean. The house layout and the location really works for our family. Nice to have a view of the Bay. We are disappointed with the King beds. One has an egg crate on the mattress which our children said wasn't very comfortable. The Master bedroom needs a new King mattress. We mentioned this last year but to no avail. I ended up with a terrible back issue from the bed. We recommend that the BBQ be replaced. Pieces are coming off and the burners are in bad shape.
