Great place BUT terrible neighborhoods
Beautiful island but Terrible neighbors. This unit is on the second floor. In our first day there we went outside to enjoy the view from the balcony, 5 minutes later a neighbor from the house across the street came out, turned his engine car on in front our unit and walked away, polluting the beautiful sea breeze air and ruining our balcony time. He came back in 5-7 minutes without any intention to leave. So we asked him kindly if he is not planning to leave soon to turn his engine off. Instead of having an adult conversation he used the profanity words, calling us names. WOW, so shocking. But that is not the end of that story. In our last day when we were loading our baggage he was outside again, as we started to drive away he began taking a picture of our license plate and when I stopped my car and came out, he immediately tried to hide the fact that he was taking a picture of our license plate. Those experiences alone ruined the whole picture of the unit where we stayed and that particular neighborhood. I demand compensation. I will not recommend anyone to stay there by all means.

Charming Balboa
We have stayed on the Peninsula Oceanfront in various rentals for over 50 years. Since this was a last minute plan, our best choice was Casa Balboa on the island. 5 bedrooms were perfect. Neighborhood was quiet and charming. Paddle boarding on the inlet was amazing. Lovely flowers, Balboa bars and bananas were to die for!

Place needs updating
Several concerns. The stove does not work properly, the largest burner does not work so it took forever to cook on the stove. Mattress in master bedroom is very uncomfortable. The appliances and kitchen are very outdated. The dishwasher was extremely loud and partly held together with a paper clip. The oven is very old. There were no spices for cooking, coffee, not even ice trays to make ice with. We like to cook and found the kitchen to be sub par to say the least. Couches in living room very uncomfortable. Pillows in bedrooms uncomfortable. Definitely would not stay at this location unless I knew these items were addressed.
