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: This is a great find just a block from the ferry to the peninsula. Clean, well maintained house. King bed, queen bed, twin with a trundle, and a pull out couch in living room. The third bedroom with the trundle is only accessible by going through one of other bedrooms. Tall ceilings and good size rooms for Balboa Island homes. Kitchen is dated but functional. No A/C. Not usually needed on Balboa but worth noting. TVs are equipped with streaming access like Roku. WiFi is solid. Overall great house and definitely recommended!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very clean, bright and such a fun location. Was the perfect place to take our teenage daughters. Everyone at Newport Beach Vacation Properties was so friendly, responsive and easy to work with.
The only thing I would mention is the wifi wasn’t great. Otherwise a perfect stay.
