Lovely accomodations with minor inconveniences
The property has a fantastic view of the bay with a nice patio to sit outside. Interior design and furnishings are lovely. Close to stores and restaurants. The gas fireplace wasn't operational. They would have fixed while we were there but we didn't want the inconvenience. (We had already waited a day then hung around a few hours for first inspection before repair person was to be called)The owner lives upstairs which wasn't a problem until someone in the family decided they should sweep, use a leaf blower then rinse off our patio all while we're a few feet inside trying to relax and read. I had just swept up sand the day before because I noticed some sand had blown in. Another inconvenience was that the upstairs seems to have their outside lights on automatic all night long.....I often times have problems sleeping and when I do I go to the living room it was lit up from their outdoor lights. One might wonder why I didn't just close the shades ....because the main shade is permanently open until the company finds a way to repair (we did have a representative from the rental company come by - very pleasant person, professional - the shade is something that is on their radar and their working on). Also...no one has taken the time to update clocks on the stove and microwave. Small annoyances that all could have been avoided. The place is fantastic with a few adjustments. A few

Perfection!
This was our second time staying in the house, and it was even better than the first. The remodel is beautiful and the location is perfect. We come to Balboa Island for about 9-10 days every August and have stayed in 4 houses... this one is our absolutely favorite and perfect for our family. This year, we were so fortunate to be vacationing downstairs at the same time the owners, Amy Jo and John, were vacationing upstairs (and other family members later in the week). They couldn't have been more wonderful to my kids. It was a joy meeting them. I hope our Balboa travels overlap in the future. Can't wait to come back next summer!

Perfect Location
The location was perfect. Literally perfect - the house is right downtown but also on the water. Easy walk to the ferry. The house is recently updated so very nice. Owners are upstairs but very quiet and always said hi and then went on their way. No air conditioning - but they had lots of ceiling fans and wall mounted air cooling systems so it was not too stuffy. Beds and bedding were great. Closets and dressers were roomy and two of the rooms had a great little vanity. Washer / dryer was helpful. Appliances new and worked well. Kitchen is fully stocked with dishes and pots / pans. Wifi and TV all good. Small but cute front patio with a table and one lounge chair. Overall great family place to stay. Parking was a carport and totally easy to park my Tesla sedan.

Beautiful Location
Everything was amazing. Location was five star. Jordan was great. Only issue we had was the master bath shower. Water seemed to run through the grout lines leaving puddles of water on the tile drenching the shower mat. As a suggestion, add a little caulk in the grout line where the shower door and tile meet. Already looking at dates for next year.

Our third annual stay and it only got better!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our third annual stay at this rental and it was another perfect stay. The rental is recently renovated and the renovations are top notch and so well done. The rental is cozy, each bedroom is comfortable with comfy beds, fans, TVs and AC, and the patio is perfect to hangout on. The kitchen is open and perfectly equipped. The location literally couldn't be any better. Anytime we've contacted management about anything, they promptly reply and remedy any issues that arise. Couldn't recommend this rental more.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our time on Balboa Island. This unit was well appointed everything was quite new and top of the line. The only suggestion I have is to fix the outdoor shower so we could rinse our feet off before entering the condo. We found a bucket and used it to step into to rinse off the sand from the beach. The unit is very close to restaurants and a short walk to the ferry.

Fabulous stay on the Bay
We have stayed here before and will stay here again. The property is perfectly located on Balboa's South Bay and right next to Marine where all the shops and restaurants are. The entire place has been very nicely remodeled and is beautiful and clean. The beds are very comfortable and it has all the amenities you need. We love sitting on the patio and watching the boats. It was a perfect stay.

Fab Time with Family

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A stay at this property for a long-weekend with family was ideal. The house is beautiful, the best rental I have stayed in. Spotless. Beautiful decor. There are rules to keep it tip-top and the neatniks among us will love it. The waterfront views were delightful and being walking distance to shops and restaurants was ideal. The small beach that appeared at low tide kept the children busy. Great house!
