Location was great. This unit is on third floor so boardwalk traffic and noise is muted. Parking is easy and secure. Lots of room and fully stocked kitchen. Primary bathroom is very small and shower door in that bathroom is very hard to move on track. The second bathroom has an updated shower. Michael is a very responsive host!

We had a great time. This location was perfect. We were able to walk everywhere we needed to and the view from the balcony was both bay side and oceanfront. The kitchen had all the appliances and dishes we needed as well as having a washer and dryer which was amazing with four kids. Balboa village did not disappoint.

This condo did not disappoint! It looked just like the photos. The location is right by the beach. We visited with our adult children and their significant others, 6 adults. It was really nice to have both separate spaces and ample space to be together. We asked our host for a coffee recommendation and he suggested Balboa Lilly's. He was spot on, great coffee!

Newport Beach

The property was perfect in location. Very easy to many attractions. Parking was in a secured garage. The owner was very easy to contact. The only issue is maintenance of some things like bathroom fixtures. In the master bedroom bathroom it is a challenge getting into the shower with the entrance door so close. Otherwise everything else was great.

Our family loved this location and the property manager was very responsive. Place was over 80 degrees in all bedrooms the entire stay.

Clean, easy access to city and right off boardwalk! Perfect location with shopping and eating! Uber and biking easily accessible. Note- no air conditioning, wasn’t too much of problem, but master bedroom does need a ceiling fan. Other rooms have floor fans which seem to work. We opened windows bc there were screens. All in all, very nice and will go back again. Thanks!
