Perfect place to stay

Great beach house

We have stayed at this beach house for multiple years and it never disappoints. Stephanie is a great host; responsive, accommodating and so easy to work with. The home is in a great location, the beds are comfortable and the amenities are an added bonus. It feels like a home away from home!

family trip

The beach house was perfect for what we needed it for. The proximity to the beach was exactly what we wanted. It was so helpful to have the beach toys/chairs etc to use. I will say the place could use some tlc (patio chairs rusting etc) but overall everything was functioning and exactly what we needed.

Absolutely loved my stay at this property for my birthday weekend in Newport Beach. Checkin process was so easy! Great communication from the property owner. The rooms were spacious, comfortable beds, nice clean bathrooms, and lovely kitchen. This location is close to the beach and downtown Newport Beach. I will definitely stay here again!

Great location

The location is perfect proximity to the beach. It has a nice deep driveway and plenty of beach chairs and toys and bikes. The indoor furnishings all need to be updated. The beds are old and uncomfortable and the couch is very unsightly and stained. There were only two beach towels for a three bedroom house. A little bit could go a long way for this charming house.

Awesome property, neighbors were a bit loud

We loved the property and location. Everything in the listing is absolutely correct and we would happily recommend to friends and come back. The only thing we had to complain about is the next door neighbors were fairly loud and up past 2am both nights. With the closeness and windows being open it was very annoying and hard to sleep well. Still a 5/5 property that being said.
