Property was in a great location on the boardwalk. All arrangements were made thru Beachview Rentals. Beds and bedding were fine. BBQ grill in upper unit did not work, so we used 2 sections on lower unit's grill. 2 gas burners did not light on the stove in lower unit. Had to buy coffee filters (we left the rest for the next renter).Garage door definitely needs maintenance (grease or lubricant) but at least it works.Otherwise, we had a very fun 4 days, and I thank Beachview for providing earlier check in time and 11am departure.

Needed Maintenance was Handled Very Quickly

The dishwasher didn't work and kept shutting off. After calling the property management company, a technician arrived very, very quickly. We learned the floor drain was clogged, but the issue was resolved within an hour. The property management company was always very accessible and handled our issues to our satisfaction.

We stayed in both the upper and lower units of this beachfront home in Newport, and overall it was a great fit for our group.Each unit has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, which worked well for our family of nine (grandparents, adults, teenagers, and younger kids). The layout gave everyone space, though the one thing that would have made it even better is if the units were connected internally—you do have to go outside to move between them.The property was spotless upon arrival, and the host/property management was extremely responsive. On our first day, we had a toilet overflow in one of the bathrooms, but they had someone there within 20 minutes to fix it. Immediately after, another crew came in, fully cleaned the bathroom and restocked towels, which we really appreciated.Between the two units, the upper unit is definitely the standout. The stainless steel appliances, along with the sloped ceilings and skylights, give it a much more open, updated, and comfortable feel. The lower unit is still functional, but it could use some updates—particularly the refrigerator, which was an eyesore, and some of the bedroom and living room furniture, which felt dated and mismatched.The location is excellent—just a few houses down from Cabo Cantina and other restaurants, yet we had no issues with noise at all. The beach is right out front, and our teenagers and kids loved being able to walk to the Balboa Fun Zone or head straight to the sand within minutes. The area felt very safe.

Thank you for your comments, Don. We’re glad the home was a great fit and that the layout worked well for your family group. We’re sorry you experienced an issue with the toilet, but glad the team responded quickly and took care of it right away. It’s nice to know you enjoyed the excellent location and easy access to the beach and nearby spots. We appreciate your thoughtful feedback on the interior of both units and will share your comments with our operations team. It was our pleasure to have you as our guests, and we hope to see you again. Kind regards, BVR
