About this property

4BR/3BA Classic Island Home - Easy access to Beaches w/ new AC and updates

Island Retreat is a 4 BR/3 BA, cozy condominium nestled on Newport Beach's renowned Balboa Island with NEW AIR CONDITIONING. Mere seconds from the Balboa Ferry, this unit makes for a perfect getaway to Southern California's endless summer!

Enjoy walking to Balboa Island's restaurants, cafes, and bayside beaches, with the main Peninsula beaches only 15 minutes away via the ferry.

Ready for relaxation, with open living spaces, a full kitchen, and patio with BBQ - ask about our attached unit for groups 10+!

Balboa Island is not only a great vacation destination but is also an excellent base for Southern California's many other attractions and theme parks!

Island Retreat is a 2-story front unit that has 1 bedroom downstairs with an attached bathroom, and 3 more bedrooms with 2 full bathrooms upstairs. This immaculate, cheery and bright home is fully furnished and equipped. Ready for a comfortable and worry-free summer beach vacation or winter rental!

Activities and Attractions:

Our property is located less than one block from the beautiful Balboa Bay, boardwalk, and the Balboa Ferry that gives access to the Peninsula beaches and Pacific Ocean. The ferry is a lovely 5 minute ride directly to the Balboa Fun Zone (with arcades, rides, and snacks), the Balboa Pier, shopping and restaurants, boating and fishing excursions (including transport to nearby Catalina Island), and bike/water sport rentals.

Agate is the only street on the island with a children's climbing gym and basketball court. On the island itself, Marine Avenue boasts fine restaurants and boutique shops that are only 2 miles away from even more fine dining, shopping, and movie theaters at Newport's famous outdoor mall, Fashion Island.

For those interested in seeing more of the Orange County coastline, Laguna Beach lies only 7 miles further down the Pacific Coast Highway. Originally an artist's colony, Laguna hosts the Pageant of the Masters and Sawdust Festival in the summer, art galleries, and fine dining and shopping along with wonderful beaches with tide pools.

Island Retreat is within 30 minutes of Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farm and an hour or so from Universal Studios, Hollywood, San Diego Zoo and Sea World. The Santa Ana/Orange County (SNA) Airport is only 10 minutes away and the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is approximately 45 minutes away.
