A propos de ce maisonrental
BlueDoor Cottage- An Island Favorite!
Cottage classique de 1928 à l’île de Balboa, récemment restauré pour des vacances reposantes à la plage. Situé sur la petite île, à quelques pas de tous les magasins et restaurants de Marine Ave et à seulement quelques portes de la célèbre baie de Newport. Le chalet dispose de la climatisation, de ventilateurs de plafond, d'un garage convoité pour garer votre voiture et de 4 croiseurs sur la plage, de 2 kayaks et de 2 planches à pagaie fixes pour explorer l'île. Le Blue Door Cottage est l’un des plus grands patios de l’île, ce qui vous laisse tout le loisir de prendre vos repas en plein air et de profiter du soleil juste devant les doubles portes hollandaises.
Peut accueillir 8 personnes dans 4 chambres, avec 6 lits, et n’est pas rempli de lits superposés, ni de canapés-lits ou de lits gigognes pour augmenter le nombre de personnes occupées. Le capitaine a une télévision Eastern King w TV, la deuxième chambre a une reine avec une télévision à écran plat, la troisième a deux jolis lits jumeaux, et la 4ème chambre - La chambre Little Mariners, qui ressemble à un navire avec deux lits jumeaux intégrés, pour les enfants, les adolescents ou les adultes plus petits.
Le charmant cottage possède une grande salle lumineuse et aérée au rez-de-chaussée avec de nombreux canapés confortables, donc suffisamment de place pour que tout le monde puisse socialiser, regarder la télévision et jouer à des jeux avec votre famille et vos amis.
La salle à manger a une longue table de ferme en bois massif et des chaises pour 8 personnes, pour prendre vos repas à l'intérieur, et le patio a une longue table rectangulaire avec parasol et des chaises pour 8 personnes afin que vous puissiez prendre vos repas à l'extérieur. Il y a aussi une table de patio ronde avec 4 chaises sur la terrasse arrière juste à côté de la nouvelle cuisine. La gamme commerciale et l'évier de la ferme raviront le chef qui souhaite préparer des repas maison. L'emplacement convoité de Little Island est ultra proche des magasins et des restaurants de Marine Ave, il est donc très rapide d'aller se promener pour prendre un dessert au Balboa Bar ou à la célèbre banane enrobée de chocolat.
Le chalet est rempli de serviettes de plage et de tous les jouets pour profiter de l’île, tels que deux kawaks de 2 personnes, deux planches à pagaie, quatre bateaux de croisière, des chaises et des jouets de plage. Amusez-vous à jouer dans la baie ou à traverser le ferry pour rejoindre le coin ou la jetée.
La petite île est convoitée pour son accès rapide et facile sur et en dehors de l'île. Vous pouvez donc faire des excursions d'une journée à Disneyland, à Knott's Berry Farm, magasiner et dîner au South Coast Plaza ou à Fashion Island, et aller voir les nombreuses autres attractions du sud de la Californie. . Le garage convoité vous permet d'avoir toujours une place pour garer votre voiture si vous décidez de quitter le paradis. Mais presque tout est proche d'Uber, et aucune voiture n'est nécessaire, se promener sur l'île étant le meilleur moyen de transport.

Wonderful cottage, exactly as shown, very thoughtful host!! Nice to be on the quiet side of the island and be able to find an additional parking space. Couldn’t have been a nicer stay.

Our stay with our family at the Blue Door Cottage was amazing! Pete was very available if I had any questions! The house is very comfortable and is on little balboa, amazing location to all the shops and restaurants! The house was furnished with beach cruisers, beach chairs, anything you need to enjoy a vacation just relaxing. No need to drive ever, just bicycle to everything!

My wife and I were looking for a final summer getaway with our four children, before the school year begins. When we saw all of the positive reviews for the Blue Door Cottage, we couldn't pass it up. The cottage did not disappoint. Actually, it is the best rental we have stayed in. This is likely due to the fact that it doesn't feel like a rental at all, but a second home. Pete went the extra mile to make us feel welcome and comfortable. We were welcomed with snacks and a wonderful cheese tray. He gave us local tips on where to go and how to get around the island. We loved being able to use the bikes to cruise around the island and cross the ferry to Newport. The beach chairs, umbrellas, boards, and other beach equipment made our trips to the beach easy. The house is cool, comfortable, and everyone slept well. Our favorite part of our stay was how peaceful everything was. The house has a relaxing vibe to it. We felt like we stepped away from the world for a few days, and all the stressors of life, and were able to recharge together. Amazing.

We had a happy time at the beach with stand-up paddle boards and beach toys, kept the kids all busy and happy. It was a great time for the cousins to bond with each other.
We had great meals and chatting around the outdoor dining table.
The kids all slept very well and comfortably!

We recently spent 7 days at the Blue Door Cottage and it was awesome! Pete was great with communication from beginning to end answering all our questions and offering recommendations. He even arranged for my husband to golf at a nearby golf course - over the top kind!
We were a family of 5 adults and 2 toddlers (3 and 4). The bedrooms were set up perfect for us and the kiddos loved having their own cute bedroom with port hole nightlights! The hosts had a board of cheese. meats, crackers and cookies in the frig on our arrival as well as a bottle of wine. Since our flight was delayed multiple times it was late when we arrived and we were all hungry so it was just perfect for us! We spent 2 days in the Disney parks which is a short 25 minute drive from the island. We also rented a Duffy boat on the island for a 2 hour tour and brought our own snacks & wine - a delightful way to self tour the area by water. Unfortunately our mini van we rented was too long to fit in the garage at the property but we never had an issue finding parking on the street. The front patio is quaint-we ate dinner out there most nights (take out from near by restaurants). The location of the property is an easy walk to the main street on the island as well as the ferry. The island itself is a very quiet and relaxed place - bummer that construction was happening on both sides of us during the day making it tough to take a nap.
The updated furnished house and fresh cut flowers made our stay perfect!

We loved our stay at this cottage . It’s on a quiet street and so close to everything on the island and easy in and out.
We came to celebrate our daughter’s graduation and brought our family. We found it to be a very special place. Loved that it is almost 100 years old, retaining the cute vintage charming feel, while it has modern touches and everything you need to relax and gather around meals inside or outdoor on the huge patio.
owner is a great host and responded very quick to any questions we had. We will definitely recommend it and book it again.

Balboa Island has always been my favorite place to stay, but this was the first time I stayed on the littke island . I loved it !! The Blue Door Cottage was pristine and so cozy . I stayed here for two weeks by myself (my brother came for a few days) after my mom died . It was the perfect place to heal and rest !
I will be back

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!

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!

Our stay at The Blue Door Cottage was amazing! Pete was extremely accommodating and his beautifully renovated property gives you the quintessential Balboa Island experience with all of the charm. We started our weekend with a basket of treats and a charcuterie platter waiting for us when we arrived. Such a thoughtful touch! Everything you need for a memorable beach getaway is suppled which was wonderful. To sum it up, The Blue Door Cottage is simply perfect!
