You may contact them if you ever have a question.Also, the location is perfect…. Close to the ocean, shopping, restaurants and grocery stores.We have vacationed at The Dock the last few years and will continue to do so because this not only a great place, but the owners really care.

We loved walking everywhere from this house; 3 blocks to the beach, 2 blocks to grocery and a short half mile radius to numerous restaurants, shops and Lido village. Alta coffee on 31st is excellent.

Top Notch

The Dock presents well on-line but is even better in reality. The Dock has many amenities not normally found in a rental - not only a Keurig machine but plenty of K-cups for both coffee and tea. All kitchen and eating things are new and matching - not hand-me-downs, Appliances are high quality, bedding, linens, etc. also. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there would highly recommend staying at the Dock.

Repeat renters

We are a family of four who has stayed for several years in the Newport Beach rental. We have stayed at multiple VRBO rentals for over 20 years and this is by far the best. Holly exceeds expectations upon check in throughout the month and the place really is located on the best street in the area. We love the beach access, lido proximity and the fact that most of the surrounding neighbors are long term residents vs party for the week people. We will be back!!!
