Super happy with this property. Very clean walking distance to where I needed to go. Amenities were all there. Nice towels, Keurig, etc.. Host was very responsive to my phone calls
The studio was indeed very cozy, but perfectly comfortable for a couple. The ceiling, tower, and box fans all kept the room cool during a heat wave. The kitchen was really well equipped with what we needed.Literally steps away from the bay and the walking path along the harbor, as well as the beach being a short two block walk with easy and safe street crossings. There were some bikes that we were allowed to borrow to cruise around the island - crossing the ferry with them was so fun!Trent, the property manager with AvantStay was the most helpful and friendly host from the moment I arrived until weeks later when something I left behind was located.Highly recommend this rental for your vacation stay in Newport Beach.
This was perfect for my week in Newport Beach. Very well located close to the waterfront and the beach, well equipped and in a super quiet neighbourhood. Loved being able to walk or ride my bike everywhere. I’ll definitely stay here again and refer friends and family.
Very clean, location is great... parking is a hustle..would be nice if they tell you there's no view at all.. it sort of feels like when they send you to the corner all the way in the back.. that would've been good to know before I reserve... it makes a difference in your decision.

Comfort and convenient
This was a perfect place to enjoy Balboa! Clean and very cozy. The only thing nicer than the property was the hospitality we received. I definitely will be returning.
Working with Kathy was very easy. The condo was very clean and even had chocolates awaiting us. A very short walk to the beach and condo sits on the bay side. We would highly recommend staying here. Also renting bicycles instead of a car was the way to go!

Clean and Cozy
This was the perfect location for us while attending a regatta at the Yacht Club close by. We were within easy walking distance to the venue and plenty of options for dining close by. Kathy was super sweet checking in on us and we couldn't have felt more at home. From the personal note, chocolates and bubbly to the comfortable accommodations and clean space, we highly recommend this location!
