About this property

Summary:
This beach cottage is classic Balboa Island. It's cozy, cute, and family-friendly! Just being a block away from the famous Newport Beach ferry, and not to mention all the amazing restaurants, markets, bakeries, and shops right there on the island! Perfect for couples, families, or a group of friends. The outside patio with a fire pit is perfect for making memories of a lifetime. The perfect island escape and vacation location!

The Space:
NEWLY Added EV Charger in the garage. It is a Level 2 charger that can change any car directly except Tesla [however, all Tesla’s come with an adaptor that will allow it to accept this J-1772 plug]. Alternatively if you have a portable charger in your vehicle, you should be able to plug directly into the Nema 220v 14-50 for charging.

Guest Access:
We have TWO Stand up Paddle Boards available for you to use in addition to TWO Soft Shell Surfboards available for your use and enjoyment. Many of our guests enjoy taking either the paddleboards or the surfboards out to paddle around the bay and view the boats and wildlife.

If you are looking to stay at Balboa, this place is a gem. The property is just as advertised and is in an excellent location. The host does a great job with communication and has does a great job with the details. Little things like having sunscreen, a basket full of chargers, beach toys, plenty of towels, etc. I want to stay here again for sure. It was a treat!

Perfect!

We loved our stay in the pink house. Skip was responsive and extremely helpful. The house included thoughtful touches, comfortable furnishings and friendly neighbors. We’ve been coming to Balboa Island for years and this was our favorite trip. I highly recommend the Pink house. It’s close to the ferry and our favorite swimming beach. Skip and Jeff seemed invested in our having a relaxing, fun vacation. If I could give more stars, I would.

Fun weekend getaway

We had a wonderful stay at this super cute place. We loved using the paddle boards and the accessibility to the water. The upstairs residents were so helpful and welcoming. We had great communication with the owner and property manager. It was the perfect fit for our family and we’d love to come back again.

Spring break

My family and I stayed all week for Spring Break and loved it. The beds and linens were all very comfortable and better then other houses we have stayed in. The kitchen had a everything necessary to cook any type of meal. The garage was full of things to take to the beach and toys for the kids. There were several scooters and even a little kids scooter to use. The host text me throughout the stay asking if we needed anything and was very responsive from start to finish.
