We checked out today and have already re-booked for next year! This was one of the best VRBO experiences we've ever had. The house is fully equipped with everything you need -- including bikes, beach towels, beach chairs, paddle boards, a washer/dryer with detergent, extra linens, a BBQ, and more! We felt like we were checking into a fine hotel when we arrived, as there was soft music playing and water bottles by each bed! AND the house was decorated for the 4th of July holiday. No detail was left undone. Check-in and check-out were clear. And the communication with the host was easy, with prompt responses. We can't wait until our next visit!

May on Balboa Island

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful home on the water. We found the home very welcoming with an abundance of everyday items that made our stay comfortable. Favorite past-time was sitting outside on the patio just watching boats and people walk by. We will definitely be back!

Great host, amazing house!

This house is perfectly located on Balboa island next to multimillion dollar homes. Our family is very picky about the properties we stay in and this was one of our favorites. They had plenty of toys and games for our kids and the rooms were cozy. The host was beyond accommodating and allowed us early checkin and late checkout which made our trip very convenient as well. Thank you!

Birthday escape

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The house was very well supplied with everything we needed (salad spinner, plenty of drinking glasses, silverware, utensils, hand mixer, blender, etc). Great instructions throughout the house on how to use TVs and equipment. The house was beautifully decorated and offered plenty of space for our group. We would definitely stay again!
