Best location in Newport Beach

Perfect location on 15th street. Close enough to walk to the pier and right next to a beach rental place for bikes and a minimart for buying last minute items. Kitchen was not well equipped, but that seems common for a lot of VRBO places.

Great Property!

We booked this property for our spring break vacation. We had our two married children, their spouses and our 3 teenage boys for a total of 9 people. The bedrooms were perfectly set up with 3 rooms with king beds and a bunk room. We had a small issue with cleanliness and when we let Christie know she was amazing in responding quickly and talking care of it promptly. The kitchen is stocked nicely with pots and pans but but I recommend bringing ziplock bags, a sponge, and foil if bbqing. Also bring your own oil and seasonings. I also recommend bringing bar soap for the showers. The location was our absolute favorite. Pictures don't do it justice. We've stayed in several places, but this was by far our favorite.

Well-stocked, great location

I grew up in Newport and have always stayed at my dad’s house when visiting. Now with grown kids and my brother’s family, we just don’t fit. This house was perfect for 8 of us. Staying right on the boardwalk makes it much more of a vacation than staying in my childhood home. The house has a nice layout for a group and was well-stocked with dishes/cooking supplies plus salt/pepper, coffee filters, etc. and the owner left seltzers, some munchies and treats, and a bottle of wine. There were sufficient towels and shampoo/conditioner and hand soap.. We found out the oven didn’t work on Christmas morning, but the owner quickly gave us access to the oven in a different (unoccupied) unit, so all was well. There is only one parking spot, but there is some free street parking. I suspect this might be a bigger issue in the summer. We’d definitely rent this property for Christmas again.

Good but not great

This home has so much more potential!the location could not be better. Short walk to restaurants or coffee shop. But it needs a little attention. Lots of the light bulbs were burnt out. The front of the microwave was falling apart. Very small mirrors so it made it hard to get ready for a night out. When we arrived, I didn’t have the door code so I texted and called the owner. No response for over 2 hours.

GREAT FOR FAMILY, INCREDIBLE LOCATION!!

The perfect VRBO for families! We had our adult children and our grandchildren and it was fabulous for us! Right on the beach, lots of room, our youngest grandson is 18 months and the gated patio was perfect for him!! The house had plenty of counter space and did not have a lot of knickknacks so I was happy I didn’t have to worry about the grandkids breaking something!! We do a family vacation every year and this was a fan favorite for sure!

Family bday celebration

Great family accommodation! Slept 10 as advertised and everyone was comfortable. Age range of guests was 8-75. Sand toys and boogie boards available for kids. Kitchen and grill were clean and used to make a couple family meals. Host communicated quickly and kindly to our requests. I recommended and would stay again!

Beautiful location but could use a little update

You cannot beat the location of this property! We loved being able to enjoy the ocean view and walks to restaurants and bars. The living area is very open and was accommodating for our large group. While the showers seem to have been updated recently, the bathrooms need some help. There are tiny mirrors and terrible lighting in 2 of the 3 bathrooms. With 10 of us getting ready, we had to fight for the 1 bathroom with decent light. The bedrooms could also use mirrors to alleviate some of this issue as well. We also had an issue with check-in. We did not receive our instructions/lock box code and could not get a hold of the host the day of arrival. Once I contacted VRBO, they were able to connect me with her and she was very helpful from that point forward.

Gymnasts in Love

We stayed at this property with moms and daughters who were in town for a gymnastics competition. We loved the property and location. They girls spent time on the beach and walked for great snacks like smoothie bowls and ice cream not far away.

Great layout in a great location.

Perfect for those with young children. There are two fun playgrounds extremely close by. The house is as great as the pictures but the location can’t be beat. It’s just far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the pier but and extremely quick and easy walk should you decide to get to a restaurant or shop. There is also a local market about a minute (if that) walk from the house. Highly recommend staying here.

Birthday get away

Great location, great communication from owner, check in was easy and we were able to check in early (nice bonus!). Outdoor patio area was great to hang out, you are literally right on the beach. I know this is a rental and gets lots of use but curtains in the kitchen/living room have interesting stains, pillows need an upgrade and fridge could use a good cleaning (the rubber seal on the door has mold and under the fridge was pretty dirty).

Fun times in Newport

Had a great experience again. The was the second time we rented the property with 2 families each with 2 kids. Plenty of room for everyone. Great setup for grilling and enjoying wine on the patio with friends and family.

Fantastic location

If you want to be right in the action of Newport Beach and literally be steps away from the sand, this is the place. My family loved this property; sooo convenient to be able to go back and forth from the beach and house in a matter of minutes. Restaurants are walking distance and there is of course so much more to do within a short drive. If you are not familiar with Southern California and Newport in particular, be prepared for heavily congested roads during the summer, which is why the walking distance is such a benefit. There is a tiny market right around the corner for quick items (including a fantastic wine selection) and then a Pavilion's within a mile. The property itself is very clean, well-maintained, and comfortable. We did have an issue with the washer and dryer but a maintenance man showed up quickly and was very nice. The beds are quite roomy and the bunk bed room worked out great for the kiddos. The only four star rating I left was for the check-in process; the key box was a little tricky and I wasn't totally clear on where to park at first, but in hindsight I should've read the directions more thoroughly before arriving instead of at the last minute. Other than that, Christine works very hard to make you feel welcome and was very responsive to questions. Definitely recommend!!

Loved Southern California!!

The property is GREAT!! Views are Incredible!! I highly recommend Seaside Donuts Bakery, just a short walk away. Just don't leave them on the counter over night. If I have to be critical (I would go back tomorrow) the back windows could use dark curtains or be eliminated. Also my wife said she bring her own pillow next time. Again, we would go back tomorrow!!! Christi was responsive of area information. Oh yeah, when getting the keys push down on the top release button.
