Enjoyed a nice Christmas getaway here. Kitchen was very well-appointed and we were able to cook nice meals during our stay. House was very comfortable and nicely decorated - lots of thoughtful touches. It rained quite a bit during our stay, so the large covered patio overlooking the bay was a welcome feature! Enjoyed time on the water and had many meals at a variety of excellent restaurants close to the home. Would definitely recommend this Vrbo stay.

This condo was just steps away from the sand on the bay side. Peaceful and serene the entire time. The outdoor patio was great place to gather while enjoying the beach air. The kitchen was well stocked with anything needed for cooking. However, if you wanted to eat out, restaurants and shops were in walking distance close by. Communication was excellent and response time was quick. We enjoyed our stay.

Views from the bottom floor are amazing. Building you see is no big deal. Steps from the bay side beach. For families with small kids the patio is great for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Street is extremely quiet and manicured with palm trees. It is well worth the stay.

Super cute house! Very close to restaurants and stores... you are across the street from a lovely little beach. Unfortunately there is also a public restroom on that beach and it is right across the street from the house. This attracted some interesting beach goers.

Great location, unusual communication style

Loved the location and the unit was clean and ad advertised. It was also really nice having a garage to avoid worrying about parking. The odd part was the unusual amount and style of communication from the property manager. To their credit, they were responsive and detailed. But the volume of communication was insane... They throw so much info at you, most of which isn't relevant to your unit or stay which made check in and out confusing (hard to figure out where to look and find what you needed to know). And with all that communication, the code they gave us didn't even work. Weird experience overall, but did enjoy our stay.

Liked: Cleanliness

Great location. Updated interior. Paying for location. So many emails and rules.

Positives: Location of the property is great - literally steps from the Bay and mini-beach and a 2 min walk to the ocean beach, but lots of foot traffic from random people (including homeless near the public bathroom across the street) and easy to see into house. Great amenities. Updated interior. Lots of fans to account for no A/C. TVs are a nice touch except there's literally 4 remote for one TV. Negatives: Check in was 3p but they were still cleaning until after 4p and the floor was still pretty caked in sand. Water pressure of the showers is quite poor. Zero counter space in the bathrooms. Not a lot of natural light filters into the place. The outlets on one of the walls of the kitchen stopped working. We received about 8 emails total during the process of check-in, stay, and check-out, each one a lengthy diatribe essay on what we could and could not do and all of the things we needed to do while staying there and checking out. These are purely rental properties. If you don't want to deal with the pain of owning and maintaining rentals, don't be in that business. FYI - nothing happened while we were there. We aren't loud or partiers. If this property wasn't in Newport Beach, the price would be at least cut in half

Best Birthday Trip

We came to Cali for our sons 5th birthday trip. It was the best spot for easy access to the beach. Mostly quiet except for our neighbors next door as soon as it got dark. Beach party life so that's OK. Host was very accommodating for our early arrival. We will definitely book again!

Nice stay.

Very clean with modern decorations. Quiet neighborhood with nice outdoor patio area. Location was within walking distance from beaches on bay and sea side. Also close to Newport Pier with shops and restaurants. Some updates are needed for the air conditioner and security locks/bars to leave windows/sliders on ground level cracked for night time air flow. All in all we had a very nice stay and would stay again.

Perfect for our needs

The host had all very well set up, even with little extras, like coffee filters and measuring cups that made our stay so easy. It’s a very comfy place in a great area, with a wonderful patio. Only drawback was the public restroom across the street, blocking our marina view and drawing homeless campers. Would definitely stay again, maybe upstairs.

Perfect for young kids

Impeccable home with a fantastic large porch for sitting outside (and de-sanding everyone). So easy to walk across the street with the provided sand toys to the beach or playground — we couldn’t get the kids to go anywhere else! We would absolutely stay here again. One note: we stayed in the winter, and the heater is so loud that it woke the kids up at night, so keep your sound machine turned up.

Exceeded our expectations!

If we could live here we would! It was absolutely wonderful. Everything was better than we expected. Perfect location, literally 10 steps and you are in the sand. We had our children 10 and 3 with us and the park at the beach (right across the street) was perfect for them to play at while my husband and I enjoyed the sunshine. We rented bikes and rode around the island. Great restaurants are close by (make sure you check out the Crab Cooker!). Previous to this we were in Maui at the Fairmont in a villa, we would hands down take this place any day over that. It was wonderful, we will definitely be back!
