About this property

My Newport Place - Steps to Beach

It will only take about 30 seconds to walk to the sand from our unit. It is also centrally located near Vons, a liqueur store, several nice restaurants and fast food. A Subway, a donut shop and a coffee shop are at the end of the street. Our kitchen and garage are very well stocked. You will have much more in this kitchen than in the average rental, similar to your kitchen at home. In the garage we have bikes, boogie boards, unbrellas, beach chairs, children's toys and more.

Our place has a nice patio in front for dining or just having your morning coffee with a view of the ocean. The unit is equipped with high speed wifi, has a barbeque, updated kitchen, flooring and bathrooms. We have a smart TV in the living room capable of viewing TV shows, sports, news as well as Netflix, prime, etc. There are two queen beds and one set of twins plus the sofa turns into a queen bed. The master bedroom is very private up a flight of stairs with its own bathroom and TV. You will also have your own washer and dryer inside the unit with detergent provided.

Your unit is not shared with anyone. The 4 car garage is shared with the upstairs unit. You will have the left side as you go into the garage from the alley to park up to two cars tandem.

You will be provided a phone number of someone to contact in case you have any problems with the unit. You are also welcome to contact us with any questions you have about your stay in Newport Beach. We are the original owners of this building for the past 30 years, so we have a lot of experience with the area.

Our neighborhood is one short block from the boardwalk to Balboa Blvd. Most of the homes on this street are full-time residents with just a few rentals, so it is relatively quiet compared to some other areas known for parties. Location is great since it is so close to the bay, the beach, the Newport Pier, restaurants, grocery stores, drug store, etc. It is really not necessary to drive anywhere for basic needs. We usually walk or ride our bikes to restaurants and other establishments.

Walking and biking are the main ways we get around as it is an easy walk to most stores, restaurants, the pier area, the beach and the bay. Biking is fun as you can ride on the boardwalk for almost the length of the peninsula making it a safe ride away from cars. That being said people do like to drive to Laguna Beach, Huntington Beach and Disneyland which is an easy drive and scenic for the beach cities. The fun Zone and Balboa Island Ferry is a longer walk for small children, so a car is appropriate sometimes for that area.

There will be written instructions and general information available to read in the unit. Look for a yellow folder on the table by the wall in the living room. Besides information about the unit, you will also have some recommendations for restaurants and places to visit for other interests.
The city of Newport Beach has a rule for community noise control. This is due to the fact that we have a lot of visitors on the peninsula and the islands, and homes can be quite close to each other. So occupants must be very respectful of their neighbors. There should be no noise to be heard from neighbors from the hours of 10 pm to 7 am the next morning and during the day the noise level should not be disturbing or more than 45 DBA. If this rule is broken by any occupants, they could be subject to a $500 fine.

A SoCal Paradise
We have stayed in Newport beach on a number of occasions and found Joan and Joe's property to be the most comfortable with the best location; especially for a family of 4. Close enough to hear the surf at night but far enough away to not hear the cars and surfers at the pier. Joe was quick respond when I had a question. We loved the front porch and umbrellas and the convenience of a two car garage. We look forward to another stay in 2026.

Great Beach House
Our stay at Newport Beach was fantastic. The place was clean, comfortable and homey. Joe and Joan are excellent hosts and have the garage stocked with everything you need for the beach!! Just a 60 second walk to the sand. The place was perfect for our family of 5. We hope to come back next year for a longer stay.

Wonderful place to stay!
The communication between Joe, Joan and our family was so helpful! They went out of their way to accommodate and offer suggestions on restaurants etc. Their place was also so beautifully well kept as well as so well supplied with household items I was even able to make an Easter dinner for my family using a crock pot. And in being so close to the pier , restaurants, shopping and within steps to the beach our vacation was very relaxing! We are so grateful for them and their place!

Great place, better hosts
Joan and Joe made our stay even more memorable than the birthday trip it already m was. It started with leaving us a personalized suggestion and game for our son. And they regularly followed up to make sure we had everything we needed. The quiet location only 1 block to the beach was perfect. We will definitely stay here next time we are in Newport.

About the host

Hosted by Joan and Joe Tallman

Host profile image
My husband and I grew up in Southern California and always dreamed of owning a place in Newport Beach. After spending several years working overseas in Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines we returned to fulfill that dream. In 1990 we bought a brand new duplex in Newport and it has become a favorite place for our family and friends to stay.

Why they chose this property

Our place is a 20 minute drive from John Wayne airport, 30 minutes from Disneyland and Knotts Berry Farm. It is also within walking distance to the Newport and Balboa Piers as well as great restaurants, shops, and grocery stores, not to mention only 7 houses from the beach. One of our favorite things to do in the afternoon is to walk down the boardwalk and get a frozen banana.

What makes this property unique

Another favorite past time is to sip our morning coffee on the patio while watching the pods of dolphins and Catalina Island in the distance. The gentle waves made it ideal for swimming, surfing or body surfing.
