Great location, helpful host, spacious house with comfortable beds and great patio for relaxing. Recommended for a beach vacation.

We did a weekend trip and it was perfect and had more space than i thought! Loved the outdoor patio and grill
10.0 / 10.0
We love this property because we love going to the beach near the lifeguard towers along the "40 streets" away from the craziness near the pier. Each morning we would walk to Doughboys for a donut (or two or three), then later in the morning to Banzai Bowls, and for lunch we'd walk to Sanchos for fish tacos. It's like my 17 year old daughter said, "it takes awhile to walk to some of the places but it takes longer to find parking". And like my 23 year old daughter said, "it's just perfect". We're repeat renters from this property because we love the location but we also love the set up of the bedrooms (one bedroom upstairs, two downstairs) plenty of beds for a group of 8. We also spent a lot of time relaxing on the patio. Didn't get a chance to use the grill because there are so many restaurants we like but at least we had the option.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. GREAT location. It was more spacious than we expected. So nice to have ample parking. It is very close to the ocean and Balboa. The patio area was great for relaxing and fun evening BBQs

The kitchen was not stocked well at all no wine glasses,no cookie sheet no salad bowl very little of extra things this house over all was a total disappointment and we would not ever rent it again they didn’t give us the right code for garage house needs repairs a lot of blinds were broken

House was clean but could use some upgrades. Would have been a great stay if there were grilling utensils, pot holders and kitchen towels.
Owner was very friendly and got back with me quickly. Very easy to get to the beach so if that is your main goal this house is perfect.

Nice house near the beach and restaurants. Quiet at night. Loved the patio off the living room for sitting and having coffee in the morning and other beverages in the evening. Comfortable beds. Pillows were not my favorite - too thick and firm. Nice to have parking spaces, although tight to get into either space. Our F150 fit next to the garage just barely and the Honda sedan fit nicely in the garage.

Close to beach, on Balboa and 45th. All 3 bedrooms are large, bathrooms are functional. 2 parking spaces was a plus!!
10.0 / 10.0
This house was excellent for what we wanted—relaxing week at the beach. The location is great. The house is more spacious than we thought. The rooms are quite large. The air conditioning is an excellent touch—our master suite actually got cold! We loved sitting on the back patio and playing games at night. The sound of the traffic never bothered us at all. Neighbors were always quiet (at night at least).
The only knocks I’d have are the parking and the master shower. Parking in the right side of the garage is only possible if you have a small car. Our SUV didn’t fit, so I had to ask the upstairs renters (3 different families during our stay) if we could swap sides. If the owner would remove the shelves at the front of the garage this wouldn’t be an issue. The master shower is truly bad. It’s maybe a 36” x 36” space, with a shower head that goes up maybe 5’6”. It’s functional for sure, but don’t expect a nice relaxing shower after a day at the beach! But not inconvenient enough to not consider this house, just an fyi.
Overall we absolutely recommend this property. It was great, the wifi was good, the tv’s were nice and a great place for a beach vacation!

We stayed on the ground level of this adorable beach house. The bedrooms were large and the beds were comfy. We noticed in the closet of one of the bedrooms there were two more “cots” if we needed even more sleeping accommodations.
We loved that we could walk to the corner and get a donut from the 24 hour doughboys. Chronic tacos was another favorite or walk 20 minutes the opposite direction for Sanchos tacos or for the biggest slice of pizza ever from Gina’s pizza.
We were shocked that we had 2 parking spots!
Absolutely loved the patio, it just added some more space for a big group. Next time we’ll try to stay longer and use the grill. Can’t wait to get back. This is our favorite area of Newport, away from the hustle of 22nd street area but close enough to get there if we want.

We rented this property with our teenage sons. The layout was perfect because the master suite was upstairs, giving our teens and their friends their own space downstairs. We were able to e-bike and walk everywhere we wanted to go. It was awesome to have 2 designed parking spots too!

Location was prime so close to the beach! Little rooftop patio made it nice for stargazing at night. Don't know if this is inherent with living by the beach but we found the floor to not be clean enough as if it had not been mopped or swept after previous tenants.

Our group came down with COVID but the owner refused to let us reschedule or transfer booking to someone else so we tried to make the best of it.
Unfortunately upon arrival there was an unknown male at the property moving things in & out so we had to drive around waiting for him to leave. Messaged the owner asking who it was but he responded several hours later saying he didn’t know, which didn’t make us feel very safe…
Once in the home, we noticed everything is pretty worn down. Dining table is bubbling & peeling, couch has rip, blinds broken, water damaged ceilings, dirty walls, trash & weeds on the back patio etc.
The worst part was how dirty the property was. Though there is an expensive cleaning fee…it does not appear it was used to clean before our arrival. The showers & tubs had multiple hairs of various lengths, spiders, & the shower mat was filthy. The pillow cases & linens were dirty so even though I had Covid, I couldn’t rest upon arrival. I had to strip all four beds & wash all linens. When I did, it revealed disgusting pillows! Stains of various colors with bodily fluids that looked like had accumulated for years. It was very unfortunate.
I reached out to the owner both through the messaging & texts with photos & never received a reply! The next day after 10 am I did receive a call from the property manager who was kind enough to drop off new pillows for us. However, because we had Covid he didn’t want to be exposed which is understandable. This meant that I again had to strip all the beds myself & put all the dirty pillows in a trash bag outside for him, (not a fun thing when you paid to stay on vacation & are sick. It takes a lot of energy when you have COVID) The filthy pillows stayed on the back patio our entire visit.
After the property manager dropped off the pillows he asked that I send him pictures of the house being dirty so I sent a ton showing everything I mentioned in this review & he never responded back to me.
And yes, the previous reviews about the loud upstairs neighbors & never ending traffic passing by making it hard to sleep is true.
In addition there were strangers out front smoking by our front door throughout our stay and a group of young men who made their way in our back patio uninvited which scared my children.
The side door to the garage also is not secure. It doesn’t lock so anyone has access to it. I would not rent from here again.

Great location, caring host, excellent family spot if you want to enjoy the beach. Couldn’t ask for a better location. The host was excellent, and went above and beyond to meet our needs. I would recommend this property to anyone.

There was nothing terrible about this property, but just a lot of little things amiss. Road noise, lights not working, plugs not working, shower fan dead. You'd think for the price they charge, this would not occur. Place was not very clean, nothing terrible, just grit and dust on floors. With that expensive cleaning fee..... It's just a block from beach, and there are restaraunts across street. 2 parking spaces, one in garage, was nice, tho other renters upstairs often took our spots.

The unit was just as advertised and worked well for our family. Michael was very helpful and so easy to work with.

This property was on a very busy street with lots of road noises at night while one is trying to sleep. For this reason alone, I would not stay here again. The kitchen was not well-outfitted, and there were no niceties like liquid hand soap and extra TP. There was no manual that explains the WIFI login info. We had to contact the owner for that. Other than the lack of attention to obvious details, the unit was in a great location and only one block to the beach.

This is the worst VRBO we have rented. The keypad to the front door needs to be replaced. There is a sticker that says to not turn the knob on the keypad on the inside of the door. We did not turn it, but we were locked out when we returned. Mike was very rude when he had to drive about 1.5 hrs to open the door for us. He blamed us for the lock and said we turned the knob.
The kitchen stove has to be lit with a lighter. The pilot on the stove no longer works. Several light bulbs are out in the bedrooms and over the front door. The door knob in the upstairs bathroom is coming out of the door.
The beds were comfortable, but it was difficult to sleep with all of the road noise.
I would only recommend this house to people that don't care about the noise and lack of amenities.

The place is nice. Located at the end of the street bit close to a small shopping center and the ocean just a few steps away. I would have liked the water pressure to be stronger, but other than that a great stay.

Short walk to the beach, we loved the property. Be aware of the shared garage. But it’s not a huge deal and having any parking in Newport is huge.
Thanks again we had an amazing time.

Clean, older inexpensive furniture, couch needs cleaning, noisy street, we left a day early. Would work for a group of 20-30 year old friends for beach (we couldn’t see from the patio or house). It is a short walk, no restaurants on the sand or beach sidewalk- as I said, good for younger people.

Check in was very easy and convenient, neighborhood was nice and people were friendly. Walking distance to many restaurants and coffee spots. 2 minute walk to the beach. Loved every minute of our stay.

The only problem we had is that we were given the wrong code for the garage. Even after texting the owner he still gave us wrong code and then we finally got the right one. Also, ALL the outside trash cans were full and overflowing so we couldn't take out our trash. Other then that the place was awesome. The location was perfect and we would love to stay there again

The location was perfect! A two-minute or less walk to the beach and circle K in case you forgot anything, and not too far of a walk to restaurants, coffee, bars, basketball courts, and more (with options for outdoor dining during COVID!). Plenty of towels, washcloths, pots, pans, indoor + patio space plus parking. I would definitely recommend to family and friends.

Yes it’s a beach rental but this place needs a lot of upgrading. It seems like nothing has been done to this place in years. Carpet is worn out and dirty the kitchen sink has very low water pressure and you have to use a lighter to get the stove going. The queen bed is like a all spring bed not a 12’’ foam bed. No ac or tv in this room. The toilet in the lower bathroom rocks like crazy all of the bathrooms need to be updated. The ac in the master bed room sounds like it’s ready to fall apart very noisy. Charcoal grill is the worst should have a gas grill would be a lot nicer. The beach chairs are all trash with the patio not that great. Umbrella does not open . Nice place to stay but needs some things done to it . The coach is terrible and the table only has 3 chairs. The so called wood flooring is laminate and is falling apart not suitable for toddlers at all.

The property was not in the best location as it was very noisy from the proximity to a busy section of Balboa Blvd. Kitchen was very small. Beds were nice and lots of options for the TVs. Interior felt old and needed updating. Biggest issue we had was we rented this in a pinch a couple of days before using it and right before much of the COVID-19 issues escalated - when our plans changed, the owner was unwilling to work with us for a refund or reduction, saying there was no way he could re-rent it, which wasn’t going to happen anyway. Shame on us for being a bit rash in trying to secure someplace to stay until our plans finalized, but would have been nice to have had more compassion from the owner.

Some family members and myself were unsuccessfully searching for overnight accommodations for a Celebration of Life get-together due to the passing of my daughter. We were turned down by everyone until we met Michael. He immediately understood our need and welcomed my family. Thank you Michael.

Newport beach fantastic area to stay. Accommodation needs some loving care and some traffic noise but overall everything you need for a great holiday.
