Lou's Beach House is the perfect place for a wonderful family vacation stay in Newport Beach. Lou has thought of everything...fully stocked kitchen, all the equipment and toys for a day at the beach, and bikes for everyone! The most convenient location a short walk to the beach, a grocery store and several excellent restaurants within walking distance...a much loved bowl of treats and the most hospitable host who truly desires his guests to be comfortable and enjoy their time together. With the convenience of a Tesla charger, what more could a guest ask for? Thanks Lou for a wonderful stay!

We had an absolutely incredible stay at Lou’s place in Newport Beach—easily the best vacation rental we’ve ever experienced. Lou was an outstanding host, providing great recommendations and making sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay.The home itself was spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up. The beds and pillows were especially comfortable, which made a big difference after long days at the beach.What truly sets this place apart is everything Lou provides—bikes for the kids, e-bikes, boogie boards, beach chairs, umbrellas, wagons, towels, and more. As my wife said, it felt like “endless fun for the beach.”The kitchen was also fully stocked with high-end cookware, making it easy to prepare meals just like at home.Lou truly went above and beyond in every way. We can’t recommend this place enough and would absolutely stay here again.

Lou was amazing, met us to walk through the condo and offered us early access to beach gear and to store luggage while we waited for it to be cleaned.Great location near the beach, restaurants, grocery store, etc. Had a car but didn’t need it (unless we were exploring other beach towns). One of the best stocked places we’ve traveled to! There was an issue with the hot water heater that was fixed (a nice brand new hot water heater has been installed) so there won’t be issues going forward! Lou took great care to not inconvenience us with the new installation.Would highly recommend and would stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Louis Burgess

Host profile image
I have been traveling to Newport Beach for the last 25 years to visit my family. I really enjoy the area, and what it has to offer, most importantly how I can park the car and walk or bike anywhere I want to go.
I am a semi retired business man, and I really enjoy traveling, food, photo, friends, family and the gym.

Why they chose this property

After searching for many months and doing some intense research I wanted to be on a street that was MOST desirable! There are few blocks that are prime location in Newport and I know this is one them. Being so close to the beach is a given, however walking distance to the grocery store, many great eateries, bike rentals, breweries,
boat rentals, lido island, I just had to be on 30th Street.

In addition to the prime location, I am one of the few that has a 3 bedroom and 3 bath home/condo. The layout of the house is perfect! Each bedroom has it's own bathroom which is great for privacy.

What makes this property unique

When going on vacation there is such much to remember to pack, and especially on a beach vacation. You need a host of items to bring to the beach. What makes this special and unique, having traveled throughout the years, I provide everything that is needed.
Linens for the bed, (I know it sounds ridiculous) but yes some beach rentals in newport require you to bring your linens. Beach towels, surf boards, boogie boards, beach wagon, beach umbrellas, ice chest, kids toys like a shovel and pail, cornhole, variety of balls and toys, fishing poles, etc.
Inside towels, toiletries, dishes, flatware, pots, pans, Keurig coffee maker with coffee are supplied, along with cooking utensils, bowls, BBQ, spices, Smart TV's. many have told me the biggest bonus is the A/C unit during the summer.
