Blue Door Cottage - Una isla favorita
Sobre este casaalquiler
Casa de campo clásica de la isla de Balboa de 1928, recientemente restaurada para sus vacaciones de playa relajantes Ubicado en Little Island, a una corta distancia a pie de todas las tiendas y restaurantes de Marine Ave, ya solo unas pocas puertas de la famosa Newport Bay. La casa tiene aire acondicionado, más ventiladores de techo, un codiciado garaje para estacionar su auto, y cuenta con 4 cruceros de playa, 2 kayaks y 2 tablas de remo de pie para explorar la isla. El Blue Door Cottage tiene uno de los patios más grandes de la isla, que te da mucho espacio para disfrutar de comidas al aire libre y el sol justo afuera de las puertas dobles holandesas.
Capacidad para 8 personas en 4 habitaciones, con 6 camas, y no está llena de literas, sofá cama o nido para aumentar la ocupación. El maestro tiene un Eastern King w TV, el segundo dormitorio tiene una reina con un televisor de pantalla plana, el tercero tiene dos camas gemelas lindas y el cuarto dormitorio, la sala de los Little Mariners, que parece un barco con dos cunas gemelas incorporadas. Para niños, adolescentes o adultos más pequeños.
La encantadora casa de campo cuenta con una gran sala grande, luminosa y aireada en la planta baja, con muchos cómodos sofás y un amplio espacio para que todos puedan socializar, ver televisión y jugar con su familia y amigos.
El comedor tiene una larga mesa de la casa de campo de madera maciza y asientos para 8 para disfrutar de las comidas en el interior, y el patio tiene una larga mesa rectangular con sombrilla y asientos para 8 para que pueda disfrutar de las comidas al aire libre. También hay una mesa redonda de patio con 4 sillas en el patio trasero, justo al lado de la cocina nueva. La gama comercial y el fregadero de la granja encantarán al chef que quiera preparar comidas caseras. La codiciada ubicación de Little Island está muy cerca de las tiendas y restaurantes en Marine Ave, por lo que es muy fácil caminar para ir a pasear a un bar Balboa o un famoso platillo cubierto de chocolate para el postre.
La cabaña está equipada con toallas de playa y todos los juguetes para disfrutar de la isla, como dos kayak para dos personas, dos tablas de remo de pie, 4 cruceros de playa, sillas y juguetes de playa. Divertido jugar en la bahía o cruzar el ferry a Wedge o Pier.
La pequeña isla es codiciada por su acceso más rápido y fácil dentro y fuera de la isla, por lo que puede hacer excursiones de un día a Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm, comprar y cenar en South Coast Plaza o Fashion Island, y visitar las muchas otras atracciones del sur de California. . El codiciado garaje te permite tener siempre un lugar para estacionar tu auto, si decides dejar el cielo. Pero casi todo está cerca de Uber, y no se necesita un automóvil, ya que caminar alrededor de la isla es el mejor medio de transporte.

I cannot say enough how amazing our stay was. Not only was the home absolutely beautiful, but it was clean, comfortable, perfectly decorated and had everything we needed and some! Our host Pete could not have been better either. He was so easy to communicate with, very pleasant and welcoming. And the meat and cheese tray, wine and snacks left for us were so appreciated! Our kids were so sad to leave on Sunday. Next time I hope we are able to longer!! Thank you so much for everything!

We came for a wedding and wanted something on the island in order to walk around and to the ferry. This house was perfectly located within a minutes walk to the Marine where all of the shops and restaurants are. The island was lit up beautifully for Christmas. Everything was so festive! Peter was an excellent and responsive host. Easily reachable by text and very friendly. He left wine and cheese, which was a nice touch. The only reason I left 4 stars for cleanliness was because there was quite a bit of pet hair- no big deal and I know it’s hard to get all of it, but that might deter someone with allergies or at least they’d be able to prepare with some antihistamine. Minus that small detail, it was a wonderful stay and the cottage is absolutely adorable, cozy and could not be in a better spot. Thank you!!

Our recent stay at the Balboa Island house had its highlights, particularly the charming location. However, cleanliness issues, like dirty couch covers and bedding, tempered our overall experience. While we didn't expect a 5-star Ritz Carlton experience as we were renting a VRBO beach house, a more thorough cleaning and some updates to furnishings would enhance the house's appeal and justify its premium pricing. With attention to detail, this property could become an exceptional vacation home. We appreciate Pete rectifying the situation, and his prompt and attentive responses to our concerns, but hope these considerations benefit future guests and elevate the property's potential.

Once again, we loved our time at Blue Door Cottage. The 5 of us were so excited to return and hoped we would enjoy it as much as our initial visit in 2021, which we did. Pete’s welcome snacks / treats were appreciated by us all and he was accessible any time we had a question. We can’t wait to come back again, and again.

Blue Door Cottage is THE PLACE to be anytime of year. Peter is the most amazing most, and the home is the cutest home to spend time with family and friends. The location is PRIMO! 5 minute walk to Marine Ave (shopping and food), 30 seconds to the beach, and the front patio/courtyard is the best place to enjoy a cocktail or meal. My family and I will be coming to the Blue Door Cottage to create even more memories!

Great house. Great location. Pete was responsive and helpful plus he left some tasty treats on the fridge for our arrival. Would definitely stay again!

Wanted to run away together for a few days together as a family before one kid back to college and two others back to high school. The home has all of the charm of an old beach cottage -But every detail is modern, beautiful and comfortable. The kids loved the paddle boards and Kayaks and our whole family went on the bikes, riding together across the Ferry to the Peninsula and into town for meals and ice cream. There are great TVs in the house but you won’t want to use them. Sit on the deck enjoying the host provided treats - play cards and enjoy being a family together for a few days. The host truly enjoys providing a great experience. Can’t wait to do it again!

This was a week that we will never forget. We have younger children, and I could not think of a better place. Close proximity to the beach, safe home, all was amazing!
They had plenty of items like paddle boards, bikes and kayaks to enjoy. Pete is an awesome manager, and even helped me with items I forgot to pack up! Could not recommend more.

Thank you so much to our host Pete. He went above and beyond to accommodate my husband and our four grandchildren. We’ve been coming to the island for 40 years and this was our first stay on the little island. Charming cottage, perfectly suited for a family, amenities abound! Can’t wait to return with our crew!

As an annual pilgrimage for my family in the Midwest, we have explored the coast of Southern California, and have visited many places. This year, considering that I am local, we decided to give Balboa a try. After looking at a few different properties, we stumbled upon the blue door cottage. All I can say is that I am so happy that we did!
For people that aren’t familiar with the area, Balboa Island is a step back in time. However, the island is divided into two. Where the blue door cottage is situated, it is on a very quiet part of the island yet just a two minute walk from the very quaint and small downtown strip. From shops to restaurants to iconic locations that have been in movies, you have it all. The atmosphere is friendly, of course, safe, and the people are a mix of longtime locals and visitors from all over the world. It is definitely welcoming and conducive to daytime or nighttime walks with views that are literally worth millions of dollars.
With regard to the cottage, upon our check-in, our gracious hosts were the type to go above and beyond. From suggestions in advance with regard to places to check out to the welcome platter and charcuterie board with a bottle of wine to boot. Definitely a five-star experience!
We were fortunate to have stayed long enough to truly get a taste of island living. The cottage has so much character that every turn of your head has something welcoming to make you smile. From the art on the walls to the books on the coffee tables, it was amazing. It allowed you to not only step back in time, but to also revel in the history of the island and the southern California lifestyle. We were a party of seven, and everyone was extremely comfortable in the rooms that were more than well appointed with towels in the bathrooms and linens in the bedrooms as well as pillows and throws on the sofas. It was nearly impossible to be uncomfortable in this cottage. If getting some exercise is in your repertoire, the cottage garage has everything from bicycles to use on the island to kayaks to bodyboards and even toys for the little ones to play in the sand at the beach. Speaking of sand, you are literally a couple hundred feet away from the sand overlooking Newport Harbor. Absolutely stunning to go out and sit on the bench, or along the seawall and enjoy the view while people pass by with friendly attitudes.
The only drawback to this whole vacation was that it was not longer. We’ll definitely be back! 💜

Stayed over Easter Weekend with family from out of town. Have other family who live close by and stopped over to visit. Easy walk to Main Street on Balboa Island. Close to shopping and dining. Other activities were close by as well. Looking forward to coming back soon!

Looks just like pictures. Well equipped. The garage alone is worth it as there paddleboards, bikes, kayak, beach towels, toys. Life vest! I have hauled all these things to Balboa before so it was a gift to have them there. Robes in the closets! I cook every night and enjoyed the kitchen. The big East facing patio is a big win. We would enjoy the morning and noon sun. Later we would have cheese and wine on the patio table at 5 and then go in to the dining room for dinner when it was colder. My master bed was very comfortable. Location was perfect. Water right there and short walk to Irvine ranch market. The little twins are best for younger kids. Though my sister stayed in one.l for a couple nights. A thicker mattress, maybe foam pad would help them a bit. I really appreciate that the house still kept its old balboa charm as so many have been mansionized. Peter was a perfect host.

WOW! This property was the best VRBO property my family and I have ever stayed out--everyone agreed. Not only is the house itself very charming and cute, but all the amenities were fantastic. Peter does not miss a beat on making this home warm, comfortable, and cozy. Toys, games, throws, robes, unbelievable welcome gifts, lots of towels, an awesomely stocked kitchen (best knives and most kitchen towels we have encountered ever). Even a mostly rainy week didn't dampen our spirits. Rent this property for a wonderful time. Thank you Peter.

2nd year at the Blue Door, and it was a cozy and comfortable retreat for our family of 6 to enjoy all the charm of Balboa Island and Newport Beach. Pete was so gracious and hospitable to welcome us in with thoughtful touches for our family. We loved it so much even thought we had some rainy weather with board games and movie nights. Can’t wait to come back another year in the future. Thank you!

Everything you need for a memorable beach getaway is suppled which was wonderful. To sum it up, The Blue Door Cottage is simply perfect!

What began as a COVID staycation has now turned into an annual tradition. Pete, the owner, is always super responsive and really goes out of his way to make sure that we have a wonderful stay. The location on Little Balboa is perfect - walking distance to everything and minimal traffic (so the kids can play out front or walk down to the water). When we're not cooking in the well stocked kitchen, we're taking a short walk to Marine Ave to eat at one of many restaurants!

We have been enjoying Balboa Island for the past 10 years and have stayed at many different homes on the island. The Blue door cottage is extremely special. From the location on the little island, to the intricate details that have painstakingly gone into renovating a 1928 home and honoring its charm while making it relevant to today.
Bikes, paddle boards, all the beach toys: you name it and it is there for your enjoyment.
Loved the welcome meat/cheese and wine. Simply a magical time from the booking process to our final goodbye exchange. This is a step back into magical time…..loved it.

An amazing property, 1920s beach cottage lovingly restored. Cozy, clean, well thought out with all the amenities of home. Ingenuous construction concepts such as the murphy bed-style kitchen table that folds down, the indoor&outdoor shower, subtly lite stairway. The added benefit of water toys, bikes, helmets, beach chairs and beautifully displayed beach towels. Topped off with a welcome gift basket of yummy treats. One of the best VRBO properties ever!

The quintessential Balboa experience
Our stay at the Blue Door Cottage is one we won't soon forget. This is the third house we have rented on the island and is our favorite by far. The owner, Pete, was a great communicator. Always quick to respond when we had a question.
We were thoughtfully greeted with a lovely charcuterie board and flowers.
Not only is this house beautifully restored, each room is stylishly decorated. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was fully stocked with all the basics, including paper plates. We cooked several meals and it had everything we needed.
One of the best features this house offers is a garage full of beach toys and equipment. We spent the week paddle boarding, bike riding and kayaking, which everyone enjoyed.
If you want to stay at a beautiful home and really experience what it would be to live on this idyllic island, then this is the place for you. The house is beautiful, the front porch is ideal for outdoor dining and the beach toys really compete the package..
We are already counting the days down to our stay next summer!
