This is a fantastic location! Lots to do all within walking distance. The house fit our family’s needs and the onsite parking is a super nice bonus! The communication with the staff was excellent!!! My only negative comment is that it could use a little TLC…just basic things like new paint to freshen things up a bit and some kitchen/closet organization…uniformed silverware, uniformed hangers, etc. All in all a great stay!

The house was awesome with an amazing location. You can literally walk out the patio door, walk 6 ft and you’re in the sand on the beach! A huge kitchen was so nice as we made some great meals while there. The host was very helpful, gave great instructions, checked in on us and answered questions very quickly. Highly recommend and we will be back!

4/10 Poor

Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Communication
Fans were absolutely necessary for cooling due to the unusually hot weather the week we were there. Only one of the three fans was workable, all of them were very dirty on the intake side (i.e., to the point you didn't really want to have them blowing around whatever the crud was around the house), and even if they had all worked they were still very inadequate to provide cooling for the entire house. We had to spend 2 hours and 300 on the first day to go out and buy appropriately-sized new fans to actually cool the entire unit ("Air Movers" from Home Depot which worked extremely well, and had to be left in the garage). The beach gear under the house was only partially functional (e.g., the beach canopy case zipper was encrusted shut and could not be opened so we had to buy a new one of those as well). The exterior is in serious need of painting (at least to cover the prominent rust stains right on the front of the house on the boardwalk). Very disappointing to pay that much and still have to deal with all of this...

Response from Management on 26 October 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We’re very sorry the fans did not provide the cooling you needed during the unusually warm weather. Our Guest Experience team followed up after hearing from you, provided information on the fans in the home, and offered to bring additional items if needed, but unfortunately we did not receive a response before your departure. The beach canopy was left by a previous guest and is not a standard amenity, so it will be removed. We’ll also have our Operations team review the exterior areas you noted. Thank you for bringing these concerns to our attention, and we hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future. Kind regards, BVR

Definitely would recommend using them for stays in Newport Beach!

I have been using Beachview Realty to book Oceanfront homes in Newport Beach the last 5 years. They always have great properties for my family to stay with multiple options . They are extremely helpful on booking, arrival details and departures. Their units are clean and if you encounter an issue, they respond immediately. Definitely would recommend using them for stays in Newport Beach!

Outstanding beach front house centrally located in NB within walking distance to the pier, great restaurants and Balboa Bay. Photos on website accurately portray the property.

Great Views

The home was overall very clean, had everything that you could ever need in kitchen. The only thing to improve on is extra towels since there was only one per person. Also the sofas were not comfortable. And yes it can accommodate up to ten persons but this includes a trundle bed and two foldable cots. But location and setting was perfect since it was close to anything you might desire.

The location was great. The management people were also great.Here’s what wasn’t so great. 1. Almost all pots and pans needed to be washed before we could use them including the blender.2. The neighbor 1 house down from us has 2 large Doberman pinscher dogs. They run out onto the porch, which faces the rental home, barking at every dog that goes by. They also are using the porch as a potty station. You can see the poop piles and see the urine running over the porch. It smells!!! The barking was awful and then the owner would yell at the dogs from inside the house to “Shut up”. I felt very sorry for the dogs.

Thank you for your comments, Betsy ~ We agree that this home is in a great location, but sorry to hear that the neighboring dogs were a nuisance. We hold ourselves to a high standard of cleanliness and apologize that the pots and blender were not perfectly clean upon your arrival. We will address this with our housekeeping team. Thank you again for your feedback. It was our pleasure to host you and we hope to see you again.
