About this property

200 East Balboa | Oceanview Rooftop | Steps to Sand, Pier, Boardwalk & Dining

Forget the kitschy beach condo—200 East Balboa is what a real Newport Beach getaway looks like. This luxury single-family home puts you in the heart of the Balboa Peninsula, just steps from the sugar-white sand and a short stroll to the Balboa Pier, shops, and iconic waterfront restaurants. With 3,000 square feet of bright, contemporary living space and multiple outdoor areas to soak up the ocean breeze, this is coastal California living at its finest.

Start your mornings with coffee on the lower patio, watch the locals stroll by as you gather around the fire table, then head up to the rooftop deck for panoramic ocean views and a candlelit alfresco dinner under the stars. The upper-level deck features a shaded outdoor daybed, BBQ grill, and dining table—perfect for unwinding after a sun-soaked day at the beach.

Inside, the open-concept design fills the home with natural light and effortless style. The main living room offers an oversized sectional, fireplace, and TV for cozy movie nights, while a secondary sitting area with its own TV gives everyone space to spread out and unwind. The fully equipped kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances and all the essentials needed to prep meals at home, and the dining space is ready for everything from quick breakfasts to group dinners.

When it's time to turn in, four serene bedrooms provide a private retreat for every guest. The primary suite is a standout with direct access to the deck and a spa-inspired ensuite bath featuring a gorgeous standalone soaking tub. With 4.5 bathrooms, there's plenty of space for everyone to refresh with ease.

Additional perks include high-speed WiFi, a washer/dryer, and one dedicated parking space in the attached garage.

Great house-mere steps to the beach

This house fit our family great. It was literally steps from the beach and there were beach towels, chairs and all kinds of other equipment to use there. It needs a little TLC, but it was a great place. The linens were clean, as well as the beds. Would definitely stay again.

beautiful large home next to the beach

The house was super comfortable with large rooms and bathrooms with new furniture and comfortable beds. Kitchen was large and was well stocked. Super close to the beach as well. Would totally stay again! My only complaint is the floors and the front patio were dirty.

Good House. Good location.

This is a large house very close to the ocean. If you are looking for a really high-end property this isn’t it. It is a beach rental that definitely has been well used. The white carpets were significantly stained. However, if you are looking for a large house that will accommodate your group and you want to be close to the beach, this is a great option.

Renter Beware

We booked this property roughly five months in advance of our trip. Luckily, we checked the listing the week before we left to learn the property was in disarray. In fact, when Vacasa finally got back to us, the phrase they used was “not livable.” To their credit, they did refund us our money + some extra. But by that point, over Labor Day weekend, there was *nothing* available near the beach in Newport/Balboa. So we had to scramble and go somewhere else entirely at the last minute.

House doesn’t look like the “ads”

Nice layout. Good location Outdoor space very disappointing. Dirty floors and stained furniture. Outdoor space was mildewed and rusty. Tripping hazards Bathroom grouting ugly and grungy. No full length mirrors No use of almost all amenities for guests That’s down to the stove top griddle we weren’t allowed to use. Once was a lovely place. Not so today.

Disappointing

Firstly the photos are way better than it actually is. It’s very run down. The furniture was dirty and disgusting. The shower is leaking into the next level through the light above the dining table. No coffee or tea provided. The cleanliness was average. The internet wasn’t working. Finally figured out power had shorted, probably due to the water leak through the bathroom. Not a great start to have to find the power switchboard and fix given the price we paid. The only good thing was the beds were comfortable

Just Ok.

The home is just Ok. It is definitely more weathered and lived in than it appears in the photos. We had a few issues pop up during our stay and the local Vacasa team was very responsive and helpful in getting them addressed however the deferred maintenance (i.e. mildewy patio furniture, rutsy railings, cracked patio tiles and random cut&exposed wires) is not something that is a quick fix or something that can be reasonably fixed while guests are in the home and the definitely impacted the quality of our enjoyment during the stay. The home is pet friendly and there is a strong residual pet odor and dander situation as several members of our party found it necessary to take allergy medicine while staying at the house. Wasn't a bad place to stay but wouldn't chose it again.

Great house layout and location

The location of the property is perfect. Even though it’s on a busy street, there is a cross walk right at the corner that made crossing over to the beach easy. The size and the layout is amazing and provided plenty of room for our two families of 4. The property is in need of some deep cleaning and maintenance. The carpets had stains that would not have been removed by regular cleaning, as well as some cushions inside and outside were stained or worn. The beds were comfortable and the bedding seemed clean and new. The house doesn’t have cable so be prepared to stream your own apps, this was initially confusing but the management team was responsive to our requests for support. We had an issue with the GFI outlets in the bathrooms on the last evening, but management seemed on it. I hope the owners consider putting some money towards deep cleaning or replacing the light colored carpets. However, we were able to overlook these things because the size, layout and location were so great. I would have given the propery 5 stars with these changes.

Could have been smoother

VACASA, did everything possible to gather my personal information through the process and has since been marketing to me directly. It felt like their priority was to get my information above ensuring we had a good trip at their property. The identify verification process was unnecessary and painful. As for the property it was ok but could have been cleaned better. There were shoe prints and markings all over the walls and ceiling on the main floor. I sent them pictures after check in because I was afraid of getting billed extra for the damage. The garage wasn't big enough for my vehicle so parking was a challenge. There was a fight outside the house on our first night and the police were there from 2-4AM which made it hard to get any sleep. This was obviously out of the property owners control but might a result of being directly on Balboa.

Very functional home...

My husband and I rented this home for a week with our daughter and her family...3 children. It was very functional for us, but there were some weak points! #1The floors on the main were dirty or had been very poorly mopped...the kids feet were black immediately so wear shoes while you are in the house! #2 there was only 1 skillet and we had to ask for more. #3 We had a leak from the master shower over the DR table...We placed two calls (over two days) to the 800 number and with no response my husband found a local # to call. We got an immediate response...it was not a drain leak it was improper installation of the shower door...sounded like this wasn't the first call for this problem... #4Aside from the above issues, it is on a busy street(which I did not realize when I rented) and with young children we would find a more secluded home on a quieter street. We made it work and we had a great week.

Great Home - Needs Work!!

We are a family of 8, including two kids, and the home was perfect in size and layout for us! The location is amazing, 1/2 block to the beach, close to the pier, convenient for restaurants, food and entertainment! Beds and baths are plenty and comfortable but house has been lived in HARD. Kitchen countertops are etched with stains, electrical outlets are loose and some are uncovered, power went out twice for a few hours then GFCI's wouldn't reboot for a few hours after that. Several windows are broken and can't be opened which forced us to use AC. Plumbing in shower of wallpapered bedroom made such a loud roaring noise when hot water was on that it woke up the kids. Also the water shutoff in that shower itself when turned to hot and was only able to restart by turning dial to cold water and then hot again. Property was listed for sale two days before we left so twice people (Realtors?) were parked at front door looking in windows. This house is great but needs attention and maintenance. There are tons of similar vacation homes around the area to choose from - this home worked for us but I wouldn't come back until some of the issues are corrected.
