    Surrounded by the calm waters of Newport Harbor, Balboa Island offers one of the city’s most charming and timeless coastal experiences. This beloved island neighborhood is known for its peaceful bayfront setting, walkable village atmosphere, and quiet residential streets lined with colorful cottages and classic coastal character. It's an ideal setting for a slower-paced Newport Beach stay with easy access to both harbor and beach adventures.

    Spend the day strolling the waterfront boardwalk that circles the island, watching sailboats and yachts drift through the harbor, browsing the boutiques and cafés of Marine Avenue, or enjoying one of the island’s famous frozen treats. The Balboa Island Ferry carries cars, bikes, and pedestrians across the harbor to the Balboa Peninsula, where Balboa Village, the Balboa Fun Zone, Balboa Pier, and miles of sandy shoreline await.

What a fabulous house for our adult family! Plenty of space for cooking, playing games and relaxing in individual spaces.The beach is a wonderful plus. Walking to coffee in the morning and taking a stroll for lunch was perfect. Thank you for sharing this GEM of a house our family! We appreciated every family memory we made.

Great vacation, enjoyed time on the water. Could walk to great restaurants and activities. Home was older and a bit dated but worked out fine. Needs to be a welcome book explaining the operation of the tv. With 4 remotes, it takes some trial and error to get it going. Thank goodness for the younger people.

The best house to entertain in on the Balboa Island! And the location is AMAZING! The kitchen is STOCKED with anything you could ever need to throw a brunch, lunch, or dinner for a large family or group. There are so many places to sit and gather including TWO outdoor dining tables as well as an indoor one. The views are EPIC and the sunsets are Stunning! The decor has major character, but hasn't been updated in quite some time. Some rugs and furniture have seen better days, for example, not a bad thing necessarily just a real lived-in vibe to be aware of. There's also no A/C- which isn't a big deal at night but during the day it can get a real toasty if you don't open up all the windows.

Location location location

I absolutely loved this property. I could have sat in that back patio all day and all night watching the people walk by. We enjoyed the patio, the beach, and the convenience of the location. The property is very dated.. like a trip back in time to 1979.. old but very well kept . The house is not ADA compliant, and the property management company was up front about that which we acknowledged. We were with my mom who uses a wheelchair 100% of the time and it was very difficult for her to maneuver through the narrow hallways and small downstairs bathrooms. Wheelchair assessable yes, but if you use a wheelchair full-time, I do not recommend this property. Being that this property is listed wheelchair assessable, I suggest they clear out the downstairs closets. Not only were we trying to maneuver someone with a disability, but there was nowhere to put any of their personal items. It was extremely cramped, yet there was plenty of empty storage upstairs. Speaking of the upstairs.. it was AMAZING!!! Loved it! The master suite was too cute!! Again very dated, but for me it added to the charm. I loved it! We had 5 Adults, and 2 teen's. There was plenty of space in the family and dining room for us all to sit together comfortably. The property management company was very responsive (although we didn't have any issues) but when I did call with question's they were very helpful.

Lovely Balboa island

Location beautiful, living dining and kitchen and upstairs master lovely. We were constantly disappointed. There was no renters guide book even though there was signage that said go to rental guide book to find out how to use the televisions or some other issue a guide book could handle. Rather than having to go through five different emails to see if we could find answers to our questions. Which most of our questions were not to be found in their emails. The email message after we arrived informed us to provide paper products such as toilet paper, toiletries, laundry soap, foil or parchment papers. Many of the basics we have grown to expect were not provided. We searched for a place with a ground floor bedroom. One guest was wheelchair bound. The only bedroom on ground floor had one closet packed completely with heavy box’s that we had to move in order to hang clothes. After Saturday there was a number to call if you needed information that required a message and no one returned our call. This was the first time we have experienced such issues. We think there must be a change in the property management agency and they are not guest oriented. The experience was truly unacceptable.
