The house was very clean and well equipped. The location was amazing, we were able to put our paddle boards in right off the private beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Two families very much enjoyed this home right on the waterfront. Upscale, clean, well appointed. If the only negative thing to say was there was nowhere near enough bath towels (2) means we had an excellent time. Worth every penny.

Fabulous property! Everything was as described, incredibly clean, well stocked kitchen, nice patio outside for relaxing and watching the boats go by. Having access to rent the Duffy was a great addition to our stay. The parking was easy with the long garage for our large suv, and just a block walk to the beach or restaurants. Would definitely come stay again!

Great place in a great location. Everything was as advertised. Landlord was great to deal with. The only issue was HVAC. It needs to be adjusted with another sensor added downstairs. The upstairs gets hot while the downstairs stays very cool. It made for a chilly visit in the mornings getting that first cup of coffee in the kitchen.

The absolute best VRBO we have ever stayed in (more than 30). Every detail imagined and owners are 1st class decorators. A+.

Well appointed house on the water in Newport Harbor. We had a small family gathering and were so excited to be at this property. Although the house itself isn’t large, the massive outdoor deck with folding doors opening from the living room made it feel much roomier. Also, the opportunity to rent the Duffy boat made this property a no-brainer. We will definitely be back soon!

Beautiful, perfectly maintained and managed house on the water. I was so impressed with how well this house was stocked. It's rare to find a rental with an abundance of matching dishes, cutlery and glassware.

We live locally (20-30 mins) but not on the water. We are familiar with the area and this rental did not disappoint. It was as advertised and had everything we needed. Great for families with younger kids because when the tide is low there is a beach for the kids to play. Easy for parents to keep an eye on children. Lots of great restaurants and activities within walking distance.
