    Spectacular Bay and Beach Views - Beachfront - just 30 steps to sand, Casa 225 offers the rare opportunity to enjoy both Newport Harbor and the ocean in one unforgettable location.



    The Space:

    Experience the Magic of Newport Beach – Ocean & Bay at Your Doorstep!



    The world-famous Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade sails right in front of the Casa’s! From Casa 225’s deck or a short stroll (Casita's) to the end of 20th Street, you’ll have some of the best views of this spectacular holiday tradition. Every unit is beautifully decorated for the season – complete with a pre-lit tree to make your stay festive and cozy.



    Have BOTH the Ocean & Bay!



    Why choose when you can have it all? Our prime location sits where the peninsula narrows to just one road – with the calm bay on one side and the ocean on the other, just a 2–3 minute walk away. Spend the day riding the waves, then return to the peaceful bayfront for sunsets, spacious outdoor living, and a sandy beach right outside your door. Truly vacation heaven!



    About Casa 225



    A beautifully decorated 3-bedroom, 2-bath luxury second-level home with air conditioned and jaw-dropping views of the bay, boats, islands, Fashion Island, Newport Coast, and even distant mountains. Look to your right and there’s the ocean—just across one street!



    The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring a professional Viking range and everything you need to create memorable meals. The open-concept Great Room and the main suite both open to a spacious deck that spans the width of our building on a 45-ft lot. Outfitted with deep seating lounging, a Weber 3-burner natural gas grill, and a patio heater, it’s the perfect place to relax and savor the view.



    Sleeps up to 8 comfortably: Cal King in the main suite, Queens in the secondary bedrooms, plus a high-quality Queen air mattress for 7th and 8th guests. Auto inflate/deflate double height (no lumpy sofa sleeper)

    Two full bathrooms (one ensuite, one hall bath)

    Dog friendly (small to medium dogs with approval and fee; no cats)

    One-car garage (fits minivan or smaller)



    Location Perks



    Just 30 ft from the sand on Newport’s largest bay beach, right at Marina Park and 19th Street

    Summer kids’ programs, playground with red lighthouse slide, basketball court, and sailing center right out front

    Walk to restaurants, shops, and the pier in minutes

    Public dock in front for easy boat passenger pickup

    Paddleboard & kayak rentals delivered to the beach or available nearby



    Holiday & Event Ready



    Hosting family for the holidays, a wedding weekend, or a reunion? Casa 225 is your perfect home away from home. The Christmas Boat Parade (Dec 16–20, 2026) offers nightly magic with fireworks on the first and last night, plus one evening featuring live music, food vendors, and festivities right on our beach.



    All Casa de Balboa homes are impeccably maintained and professionally decorated for the holidays—including a pre-lit tree!



    From the moment you step through the Dutch door, you’ll feel relaxed, cared for, and just a little bit spoiled.

    Guest Access:

    You have total and complete private access to your Casa with a private entry and private covered courtyards for our 2 bd/2ba`s (no vacationing with strangers) and private decks for our 3bd/2ba`s



    The Neighborhood:

    In addition to our bay front location, the property is just a couple of short beach blocks (a beach block is about two houses..cross one street that divides the peninsula) from the ocean boardwalk and pier. And it`s within walking distance of many restaurants offering a variety of fare. Enjoy Mexican cuisine, seafood (including the famous Crab Cooker two blocks away, The Cannery, and Blue Water Grill), Italian, Sushi, and several fine dining restaurants such as Oceanfront, Nobu, Cannery, and The Dock. Try the new Louies` On the Bay..located next to Billy`s on the Beach!!



    We are in a quieter location on the park beach front with the best views and location in Newport Beach. There is plenty of activity including renting paddle boards and kayaks around the corner to be delivered on the beach in front. No schlepping!! Summer recreation camps available on beach.



    From the moment you walk through the dutch door, you`ll feel "at home" - and maybe a little pampered at the beach.



    Getting Around:

    There are plenty of cabs, car rentals, bike rentals, Uber, and Lyft. We are located close to restaurants and shops so there is plenty to walk to. During the summer, the city has a "woody" shuttle that runs on the peninsula and stops a block away.



    Other Things to Note:

    Bring your fishing poles! The main pier is for fishing and our small dock is for loading/unloading passengers. There are electric and motor boats for rent at the Pavilion. And there`s a great tot lot on our beach.



    Parking is not an issue. There is a NO SHARE garage (takes smaller than a minivan) for each Casa with one exception, Casita 216A (LOWER) has a parking space on the right of the building. Medium or smaller car accessed by short driveway on left (may need spotter for backing in if your desire). Space 8 1/2 ft wide 23 deep. There is plenty of metered (by pay station...free at night) and non-metered parking. You can purchase a parking permit from the city (Blue Pole) for Lincoln Nav size vehicle. Must move for street sweeping.

Great place for a family getaway

This condo is perfect if you are traveling with small children. Walking distance to most attractions, restaurants etc. if you find a convenient, free place to park - don’t move your car! Parking is at a premium in New Port so add the parking fees to your vacation budget, just in case you have trouble finding a spot.

Family Fun

What a great place to stay! We were on a family vacation with 3 generations. We loved the location-we watched the boats coming and going in the harbor from our porch, walked to restaurants and shops, and swam in the ocean. Disneyland was about a 30 minute drive. The property was very well stocked with beach chairs, towels, kitchen appliances. The furniture and beds were comfortable. Highly recommend!

Awesome

We had a perfect view of the bay. The furniture was very comfortable and clean. It’s only a 2 block walk to the beach and boardwalk. We had pets with us and it’s very pet friendly everywhere around us. There’s a park with a playground for kids but there’s also a grassy area for dogs. I would recommend it to anyone.

Great Property with Fabulous Views

I can't say enough positive things about our stay at 225 Casa de Balboa. The 3 bedroom is spacious and extremely well appointed. The linens and towels were very nice and the beds were extremely comfortable. We loved the views from the living room, master bedroom, and the deck/balcony which was amazing. We had our dogs with us and Pam was wonderful working with us to accommodate us traveling with our dogs. We walked on the small bayside beach right in front, and also crossed over to the large ocean side beach which was only about 3 minutes away. The sunrises from the apartment are spectacular and the sunsets on the beach were mind blowing. We will definitely visit again.
