Perfect getaway spot, low discounted rates, 200 steps to the sand at pier 51!!
This property is the perfect spot to set up camp for a week at the beach. It is about 200 steps to the sand. It is in the perfect location along this little strand of coast to utilize all the surrounding piers. It is about a mile walk down to the Newport pier. Close enough to walk (takes us about 30 minutes along the water) or bike to the shops and restaurants, but far enough to escape the parking lots that bring in larger day use crowds. You have 2 reserved parking spots which is a bonus because parking can be hard to find! This unit is our downstairs condo. Both units (downstairs and upstairs) have their own private entrance on opposite sides of the building along with their own private patio. You do not share any space but the driveway.) This unit is downstairs, so you may hear people upstairs if they have heavy feet, but we have more than made up for that it with our low nightly rate!!! From our reviews, you will see we have a lot of families that are very happy with the great price and great location and stay here year after year. It includes a master bedroom with a queen bed and a private bathroom. A second bedroom with a queen bed and a third bedroom with a full over full bunk bed. It has a second full shared bathroom in the hall. When you enter the property, it has an open concept living area with a couch and a dining table so that everyone can hang out in the same space. All of the bedrooms, as well as the living area, have flat screen TVs on the wall. The kitchen is stocked with everything you would need to eat in. It has a coffee maker (pot and keurig) toaster and microwave. There is a patio out back with a sitting area, a charcoal BBQ and a small fire pit. This unit There are bikes, beach chairs, sand toys, umbrellas and a washer/dryer in the garage. We do our best to keep our property well maintained and up to date. We just have this one little property that we fell in love with and enjoy visiting to make lasting memories with our family and enjoying sharing it with other families doing the same thing. We are happy to help with any part of your vacation we can, from planning to restaurant suggestions. We hope you will enjoy our humble home and love it here as much as we do!

Location was conveniently close to the beach . . . a short 100 yard walk. We were able to experience the ocean without having to drive and park. The three bedrooms were adequately furnished and the beds were comfortable.The host was extremely accommodating and replied to messages quickly. We would definitely consider staying here again.
This was our first trip to Newport. Condo location is fabulous with the added bonus of off-street parking. Stephanie was extremely responsive and helpful with a few inquiries we had. Beach was close enough to spend the day and run back to condo for breaks often. Kitchen is well equipped. Everything is as described. We hope to make this our new annual destination.
We had a great time at this location! We appreciated that bikes, beach toys, chairs and umbrellas were provided. Beach house was comfortable and clean. Great trip!
What a great location! The cottage was comfortable, great location and a 5 Star beach just a few steps away. We were so busy with a wedding reception we want to come again and just enjoy the beach. Thank you!
Great place and location. The only negative, which the owner clearly warned us about is being able to hear the upstairs renters - Really well... Music, footsteps and chairs were super loud even without my hearing aids :) So, if the renters are into staying up until 4:00am like ours did on Friday then you might as well go join them because getting sleep is not going to be much of an option.
We had a great time. The house was perfect for our needs. 3 bedroom with 4 great beds. My granddaughters love the full size bunk beds. Well equipped kitchen and lots of ceiling fans. The best part… the beach was steps away. We’ll be back!
We enjoyed our stay. Mere steps to the beach to lay out or just sit and have a tea. Close to Newport and Balboa with tons of places to eat, drink, and play games. We even took the ferry for a few bucks. There was a fire pit in the back that came in real handy. Place was clean and well equipped with everything you need. There were bikes and beach toys to use whenever we wanted. Host responded to all our questions promptly at all times (not too late).
Our family rented the upper & lower unit! We had plenty of room and did all our own cooking & eating in the downstairs back patio! 100 steps to the sand! (my grandson counted!) This is our 3rd time here and we will be back!
Was a perfect cozy beach house. Close to Newport and Hunnington beaches, close enough to drive to Disney as well. The only downfall is yiu can hear the folks upstairs, other than that the place was perfect for our family. The kids used the bikes and ejoyed riding everywhere.
We had a wonderful time. The location was perfect, just one block from the beach. The garage was stocked with beach toys and bicycles that we could use. The house was clean. The patio was a quiet place to sit outside. The beds were comfortable. Overall, it was very nice.
We've stayed at this home before and would do so again without hesitation. The location is absolutely perfect for getting to the beach with little kids in the family and the house is very accommodating.
Loved our stay in Newport Beach! The house is only one house back from the beach, and a short bike ride to the Newport Beach boardwalk. Absolutely perfect location for our California vacation! Super awesome to have garage and driveway parking, which is a hot commodity in the Newport area. House had several bikes, beach chairs, a couple boogey boards, wagon and beach umbrella. Nice to have a washer and dryer too. The house had all the pots, pans, and eating utensils necessary to cook and eat at home. No spices or things for cooking, though, which was fine, since we didn't plan on cooking any major meals. Price was right, and the homeowner was very responsive and a pleasure to work with. Thanks so much!
My family had a great visit to Newport Beach. We have a large family and we had plenty of space. Communication was easy and the location to the beach and stores was great. We had a wonderful vacation.
My sister wanted a beach house for her milestone birthday and this delivered. Small, but not too small and a nice distance from the sites and sounds of Newport Beach. Perfect to spend time with family and decompress!
We would stay here again. The unit had everything we needed for a longer stay. Quiet neighborhood even though neighbors are very close. Everything was very clean at check-in. The two minute walk to the beach was the best feature. Very close to a few takeout food options. It was so nice that the local beach in August wasn’t too crowded. A bit warm for sleeping in August but the fans in the bedrooms helped. The kids loved the large bunk beds and their own TV. Laundry in the garage was a plus!
Great property what you view online relfects when in person! Suited all our needs for our travelling party from australia for my brothers wedding.
Thanks to Host who accommodated an early check in for one of our guests.
If ever in this stste again we look foresrd to booking with you

About the host

My family and I love to travel. We enjoy seeing new places, although we also tend to revisit favorites. All four of us are fish and could spend all day in the sun and water. Unfortunately, school and work like to get in the way!
Why they chose this property
After going on vacation in Newport Beach we were all hooked. We knew this was some place we wanted to visit every summer with the kids and eventually the grandkids. When we found this property it felt like a perfect fit. We like that it is tucked away in a quiet neighborhood and we can go back and forth from the house to the beach easily. Our walks to the pier together every morning to look for shells and pick up a coffee (and the uninterrupted talks that go with that) are priceless to me.
What makes this property unique
It is so awesome to be able to park the car and get out and exercise. During our beach week we take long walks on the beach, ride bikes, swim, paddle board and kayak. For us it is less than an hour away from our home but feels like a world away without all of the everyday distractions. It is so great being near 50th. You miss the traffic and crowds that come with being closer to the pier and the parking lots. This downstairs unit stays hidden from the street and sun and feels very quiet and private. It also tends to stay pretty cool in the summer heat. We love it!!
