About this property

Private Entry + Outdoor Space | Walk to Beach & Bay | Harborlight

  • There's a particular rhythm to Newport Beach mornings — light coming in soft off the water, the day still making up its mind — and Harborlight is built to let you ease into it. Set on the lower level of a duplex-style property near the base of the Balboa Peninsula, this home keeps to itself, with its own private entrance and a private outdoor space that makes it feel less like a rental and more like your own quiet corner of the coast.

    The location is the quiet luxury here. The Pacific is a short walk one way; Newport Harbor and the bay are a short walk the other, and Lido Marina Village — with its waterfront dining and boutiques — sits just around the corner. Newport rewards both ambition and idleness in equal measure. You can fill a day with sun and saltwater, a slow stroll down the boardwalk to the Newport Pier, an afternoon drifting around the harbor — or you can do gloriously little and still feel like you've made the most of it. Evenings tend to end the same enviable way: somewhere with a view, watching the sun drop into the ocean.

    There's more here than beach days, too. The Balboa Peninsula and its old-school Fun Zone are made for wandering, the Balboa Island Ferry offers one of the most charming short crossings in Southern California, and Fashion Island rounds out the shopping-and-strolling itch. For something quieter, Corona del Mar's coves, the trails and tide pools of Crystal Cove State Park, and the tucked-away calm of Sherman Library & Gardens are all within easy reach.

    However the day unfolds, Harborlight is the part you get to come back to — a private, low-key home base a few beats removed from the bustle, where the door is your own, the sand is close, and the coast is right there waiting.

    AvantStay provides a personalized hospitality experience to elevate your stay. With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more. For anything you need, we’re at your fingertips.

    Surf's up! This coastal city has the largest recreational harbor on the West Coast and is known for its amazing beaches, parks, restaurants, and outdoor shopping centers. The living is easy here and it invites you to ride bikes along the boardwalk and watch pros surf some of the biggest swells in Southern California at The Wedge. Take the ferry to Balboa Island for some of the best seafood in the area and to visit an old-school amusement park with a historic Ferris wheel.

    Local Attractions: Lido Marina Village, Newport Harbor, Newport Beach Pier, Balboa Peninsula & Fun Zone, Balboa Island Ferry, Corona del Mar State Beach, Fashion Island, Crystal Cove State Park, Sherman Library & Gardens.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
House is clean. 3 bedrooms as stated, however it doesn’t say if you have upstairs or downstairs as it’s a shared home. You gotta pay attention to “private entry”.(different entry’s,) We will for sure come back ! You get one parking spot in garage, they gave us 4 chairs for beach to use, complimentary hats and can coolers. House has air conditioning, great shampoo (not the cheap stuff), and host was very helpful. It’s so close to the beach, I absolutely recommend this house and will come back.
