This location was beautiful. It had wonderful views of the bay. It was within walking distance to everything; the beach, the Harbor, the Fun Zone, and great places to eat. The kids loved playing in the beach water and riding their bikes all over. The house was so beautiful and very clean. The beds were comfortable and there was enough space for all ten of us. Shanti was a great host. She was always available to communicate with. We will definitely be back.

Staying at this bay view home in Balboa Beach was amazing. The panoramic views of the bay were breathtaking. The house itself was immaculate, beautifully furnished, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We loved the spacious deck for watching boats go by. The location was perfect too, just steps away from the beach and local attractions. It truly made our vacation unforgettable. Can't wait to come back!"

House was beautiful and looked to be newly renovated. Everything was very clean and well maintained. Location was great - quick walk to beach, Balboa Fun Zone and restaurants in the area. Plenty of space for a family of four with teens having their own rooms. Balcony and outdoor space was a plus with a scenic view of the Bay in the back and and quiet residential area in the front. Would recommend!

This is the 2nd time we've stayed at this home. And we are looking forward to coming back. It's a great location to the beach and local restaurants. The home is clean, comfortable, and has all the amenities needed for a great stay.

The property was perfect for two familes with 4 young kids. The garage fit both SUVs so we didnt have to worry about street parking.
Only a couple blocks away from the beach/pier/playground on one side and the kids zone on the other side. Walking distance to everything you need.
The bunk bed with the extra pullout bed was perfect for the kids. The open floor plan and kitchen was great as well.
Great communication with the host. Very responsive and allowed us to check in 2 hours early.
Great experience and hope to use this property in the future.

We could not have asked for a better place to stay for our 50th college rowing buddies reunion. The condo was extremely well appointed, a great view of the bay looking over to Balboa Island, and literally a three minute walk to the pavilion and the fun zone. Great restaurants around for casual dining, both breakfast and lunch. Shanti was easy to contact and speak with, access to the condo was a breeze. If I could give this stay a 10 stars out of five I would!

Nice house with a view of the bay. Right in the center of town. Like the two balconies. Beds are comfortable. Only a couple drawbacks. The stains on the sheets and comforters and the bath towels are tiny and don’t absorb water.

This second and third floor condo is a great location for the beach, ferry to Balboa Island and local restaurants. Condo has some maintenance issues that should be addressed. The air conditioner is very loud and needs intake filters replaced. Bathing towels provided are very low quality and should be upgraded. The outdoor furniture is really old and not set up for enjoying the harbor view and sunsets. The vent hood in the kitchen is extremely dirty and needs to be deep cleaned. Disappointed with this property’s amenities- small bar soap. Need to provide your own paper towels. Kleenex, and soap.

This house was wonderful. Great location to beach, ferry and Fun Zone. The house was incredibly clean. The kitchen was fully stocked with all utensils and appliances you would need to cook. The street was quiet and the view of the harbor was beautiful. We would rent again in a heartbeat.

The property is great, as advertised - very large living room/kitchen, great place to spend time with the family. There was one minor issue and one major issue: minor - it would have been nice to have lounge chairs on the two decks, sort of odd to have so much open space on the bay side with just a high table with chairs, no way to chill on the decks and get some sun. Major issue - the internet connectivity in general sucked for all three adults using their iPhones and an iMac. Sometimes fast, most often super slow and irritating. It's 2023 :). We often ended up hot-spotting with our cell phones. There are now many ways to upgrade to insure wicked fast, just need to invest in it. I think for the price it needs to be done. Otherwise, the property is terrific, thanks.

Very enjoyable stay

Great location
Great location and great amenities. The only thing I did not like was the fact that the property listing was a little misleading as to property layout and use of bayside of the property. You CANT USE THE BAY AT ALL!

Great for family of 10
We celebrated by parents 50 year anniversary in this home. It was a perfect fit for ten people. The property is in a great location close to the beach with a great view of the bay. This property is on a somewhat busy road so two of the four bedrooms face the traffic so you should be prepared for noise in these two rooms. You are also under the flight path which makes for early morning wake up calls. Otherwise, the property was wonderful. The traffic is only during the busy season and the flight path did not affect all family members. The kids slept right through the morning sounds with no problem! I liked getting up early to enjoy the beautiful mornings on the beach!
