About this property

HOUSE ON THE BEACH! NEWLY REFURBISHED AND PAINTED INSIDE AND OUT!!

NEWLY FINISHED UPDATE OF ALL THE HOUSE INSIDE AND OUT! Our house is located on the Peninsula of Newport Beach. We are approximately halfway between the Newport and Balboa Piers. Right outside our home is the beach, you can cross the boardwalk (sidewalk) and then just walk straight out to the water.We are situated in an ideal spot because we we live in a more quiet area of the Peninsula. We are within walking distance of both piers and just an easy walk to downtown for dinner, games at the Fun Zone, specialty shops and the ferry to go over to Balboa Island. No need to drive anywhere.

Balboa Island is a fabulous place to visit. Once off the ferry (with a car , bicycle or by foot) it's just a short way to the main street of this enchanting island. Loaded with lots of shops and numerous wonderful places for breakfast, lunch or dinner. No visit to the Newport area is complete without a day or two over at Balboa Island.

Our house itself is very unique. We have an upside/down configuration in that our kitchen and dining area is on the second floor so that you can appreciate the spectacular views of the ocean 'from above' while enjoying a long breakfast or BBQ dinner or just even 'cooking' . Speaking of cooking, there is a big gas BBQ on the front porch where it's so delightful to have dinner on the 'barbie' and everyone enjoying cocktails while watching the world go by. The sunsets are spectacular night after night. Each one, better than the last. Outside the upstairs den is a deck with equally great ocean views where you can hide away and read the paper, have a second cup of coffee or just take in the beauty of Newport. The beautiful Pacific Ocean is your front yard . What more could you ask from a vacation to Newport Beach,CA?!

Fantastic Place to Stay

If you are looking for a beach type cottage home, oceanfront, near balboa pavilion and pier, where you can relax and have fun, this is the place for you. It is also the perfect vacation spot if you have children.

Perfect Location, needs a refresh

The home is located right next to a cute cafe and beach volleyball, a short walk to the pier and bonfire pits. We had a lot of fun enjoying the bikes provided. I wish they would replace the sofas, mattresses, blankets, and linens. I saw several other reviews mention this before I booked but was hoping it was taken care of. While fresh bed linens are provided and sealed upon check-in, note that you will have to make the beds yourselves. Also, the blankets have some staining.A deep cleaning and refresh of some key furnishings would do this place a lot of good.

Wonderful family vacation

We had a wonderful time in Newport Beach. Our kids enjoyed playing volleyball in front of the house, riding bikes down the boardwalk, and playing at the beach. The house was perfect for our family of 6, plenty of living space and beds for all. We would happily stay here again!!

This property worked perfectly for us. Right on the beach with plenty of space.

We had a large family gathering and this worked great. Beach front, easy walk to Balboa village, 20 min drive to Disneyland and lots of space. Owners were kind and responsive. Well stocked kitchen and extra blankets were great.

Nice weekend offseason in Newport Beach

The property is what one would expect from an older beach front home. Long walk to the actual ocean but this is of no consequence during the winter. The stay was fine and all attending had a terrific time.

Great location!

This is a fantastic location on the oceanfront! It's really close to all the great spots on the peninsula so you can walk everywhere! The house was large and roomy enough for our family! You can't beat the beautiful sunsets from the upstairs living room and there's always great people watching on the boardwalk. Chris was great to work with and very accommodating for our group. Thanks for a great stay!

About the host

Hosted by CHRIS GOETHALS

Host profile image
Our extended family owned 'the beachhouse' for many wonderful years. The eight children in the Goethals family spent each summer on the beach; doing summer reading, taking junior guard training, working at the local food shops, taking sailing lessons, fishing off the piers and just enjoying growing up in Newport. In 2001 when it looked like the house was going to leave our family my five children and myself decided we could not live without it and so we bought this very special home. We spent months putting the house back into it's original condition and have loved the gatherings we've had with all the families since purchasing '104'. It's a very special place, Newport Beach, with many exciting adventures awaiting you. We hope you enjoy the beauty of the Pacific, the charm of Newport Beach and your time at our home.

Why they chose this property

We had spent many fabulous summers at 104 East Oceanfront during the time that our extended family owned the property. We chose to own a home in Newport beach because we could not imagine not spending large amounts of time each year at the beach. Newport is a very unique area with so much to do and if you don't want to get up and go there is nothing nicer than just sitting out in front on the beach watching the waves come in and seeing a porpoise or two navigate their way through the breakers.On weekends the ocean is alive with activity. Sail boat races, wave runners, body surfers and all with the Pacific Ocean as a backdrop.

What makes this property unique

The beauty of our property at Newport is that once you park the car the vacation takes care of itself. If the kids want to ride their bikes they can go for miles and miles without getting lost or in trouble. If you have a runner or an avid walker you have come to the right place. Miles in all directions to walk or run. Boating? Wave riding? Para-sailing? Canoeing?Have you ever traveled over to Catalina Island? Where can you have all this within walking distance? Suppose they are all off doing 'their thing'. No Problem, sit out on the front patio, enjoy the people passing by on foot, on roller blade, on pedaled surrey. If you are a people watcher, as I am, you've come to the right place. Want serenity ? Then just walk out to the beach and watch the activities out in the ocean. It's just as close to perfect as you can imagine.
And if that's not enough information add these places :
Hollywood and downtown LA, just one hour away.
Fashion Island for shopping, South Coast Plaza, Bowers Museum, Discovery Science Center, Knott's Berry Farm, Angel Stadium, The Pond are all less than 30 minutes from you at Newport Beach!
