Top Balboa Beach Hotel Reviews

Balboa Inn, On the Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent staff"

Private Rooftop + Steps to the Beach | Chic Design | Seaside Style by AvantStay

8/10 Good

"We had a great time at this beautiful property. The location is amazing and we loved the rooftop space. The property managers were responsive every time we reached out. Our one issue was we were not aware that there would be another unit on top of ours. Unfortunately the people above us had small children that constantly ran around. As the walls were very thin, it did impact our time inside the unit, especially creating early mornings. The property owners were quick to respond to our noise complaints and even gave us a small refund for the noise issues, but there was not much they could do to address the issue as it is a different management company."

"The property was very clean and had everything I needed to go to the beach as well as in the home. The location was great! Right on the board walk with ocean views. The electricity went out at the entire property all day but I was not there so it didn’t impact me until the evening for the internet and tv but the hosts were quick to respond and happy to help."
