Beach getaway
We stayed at the oceanfront property on Balboa - we enjoyed the long walks and the downtown shops and restaurants. Balboa Island is a great place to vacation and we loved the VRBO property.

Perfect week on the Island!
We've stayed here multiple years and it never disappoints. House is clean and we can see improvements are made each winter which is much appreciated given the cost that goes into a vacation. Appliances recently updated are a big improvement and the house is well appointed with everything you need. Working with Julie the property manager is great, she takes the initiative to call beforehand if something needs to be communicated (like roadwork in the alley this year) and is overall a very friendly and competent person to work with. Great vacation as usual!

Beautiful home and Amazing location
We have stayed at several vacation rentals in the area and this is by far our favorite. The home is very well cared for and the management is very attentive. The view is the absolute best! We have rented this home twice and we will definitely be back!

L....L and more L!
Ah, ......Christmas on Balboa!! South Bayfront is the absolute PERFECT location for immersing oneself in the frantic festivities of Christmas, both in the neighborhood and on the Marina. This is our second Christmas at 606, great meals with our extended family and plenty of holiday cheer. Plus swimming at your front door! Julie, the property manager, is always a pro and a delight to work with, making sure everything is "complete and perfect" in the house. We can't say enough about our stay and the house, just fantastic! Bravo. We'll be back......Regards, R

Birthday Celebration
I was celebrating a milestone birthday and stayed the week of the boat parade. What a fabulous location to celebrate at ! The house is at a great location, easy walking to the Ferry to go to the Newport Peninsula. Easy walking to Marine Avenue where shops and restaurants are located. So relaxing watching the boats in the harbor go by the house. I would definitely recommend this house to stay at!

What can we say, we just love this gorgeous little GEM, second time we stayed in home and will be doing so again very soon, sadly home was booked or we would have extended out stay, and Julie you are the most caring professional, took time out of her busy week to accommodate my personal items left in the home, thank you, much appreciated.

Balboa Bay Beauty
Wow! This property had everything. Beautiful view, spacious accommodations, great kitchen, convenient to everything. We have stayed at a lot of hotels, etc and these were the most comfortable beds, so important on a trip. We were a little worried about the parking situation but there was no problem at all finding parking on the streets. Our family said one week wasn’t enough so we will be back for a longer stay. The property manager, Julie was very helpful, friendly and attentive. Thank you we all had a great time.

Wonderful stay with my elderly father!
When we were planning a trip with my father who cannot walk very far or take stairs, it was very hard to find a nice place in Newport Beach that could accommodate him with first floor living. This place was an absolute gem! It is perfectly located, having the garage was great, but parking otherwise was still pretty easy. We enjoyed all the comforts of the space and the kitchen was beautiful. Highly recommend this space for a family trip and we can't wait to come back!

Impressive! Such a charming well equipped clean home, we will definitely be back!
This was a special Easter family time together we loved the location, the house was so clean very refreshing! Bedrooms smaller than we imagined by the photos but hey who stays in their bedroom in vacation! No toilet brushes in any of the bathrooms amd no ironing board l am a pain l Know it however l like things pressed (: and maybe some extras cleaning supplies. My husband is a first class chef and was so impressed how the kitchen was stocked, garage really tight so we had to park in the street where we got tickets as we didn’t realize street cleaning was on different days so we thought we were clever and moved our car but didn’t realize the next day the other side got cleaned, the City should put that on. Their signage! We will be staying here again we truly loved it well done to the entire team, thank you !
