Great house, amazing views. The home had all basic home amenities however only towels for the beach - chairs and umbrellas need to be brought (FYI). Loved the location and views. Pool table and jacuzzi were great additions.
Joanie the property manager was great. Well appointed kitchen, 3 refrigerators, comfortable beds and great beach. Tons of lounging areas inside and out. Couldn’t have asked for anything more!

Wonderful house with plenty of accommodations for a large group of people. And with the bonus of being right on the beach. Sunset views every night.
Great property for a Thanksgiving celebration with 8 adults and 4 children. Access to the beach was excellent. Accommodations were great. Kitchen was spacious and well stocked. Plenty of room at the dining room and in the living room. Bedrooms/bathrooms were spacious and comfortable. Driveway is short and right off busy road way -- so take care when exiting.
Beautiful in so many ways: the house fantastic, the location very convenient (walked to Publix for very little exercise! so close), the beach fantastic and we're grateful we had wonderful weather for the whole week - I swam every morning and the family played in the calm waters morning and evening! We're so grateful for a great family reunion!! Thanks to Beach House Rentals, VRBO and Mother Earth!!

See Airbnb review , I’m not from Irvine ,
I wish we were not getting older, so we could visit this beach house every year!!!! It is superb!
The house is wonderful: clean, well supplied, spacious, great communal areas, play areas, quiet time areas.
A great walking or swimming beach. Kitchen and dining table great for the whole family.
Such wonderful views and the sound of the surf just soothed my soul lying on a chaise lounge on the upper balcony.!! Areas of sun and shade. Some great birds to entertain as well, the parrots!
Terrific location on the beach and to groceries and bridge access. It is a great place to watch beach life rain or shine.
We will all remember our times there! Thanks to All who enabled our visit!!!!

Beach rental representative very easy to work with and responsive. House was in a great location with a restaurants and Publix near. House was very clean and beds were comfortable. Kitchen was very well stocked with utensils. Pool table was a bonus. Very short walk out to the beach from the house. Would definitely recommend to family and friends. Only issue that we had and was addressed by the rental company was the shower drains were slow to drain..

We rented the house for 2 weeks for a family vacation. We found the house to be great for a large family, clean and comfortable with lots of places to spread out. The kitchen was well equipped. The decks have amazing views of the beach and sunsets. The house as advertised is right on the beach. Because of this, I was very disappointed that there were no beach chairs or umbrellas especially for out of state renters (Tommy Bahama backpack chairs would have been great). I would definitely recommend this house.

The views at the Turtleback Beach House are extraordinary. And ... this place had its share of challenges for me in terms of its amenities and care. Would I go back? Yes. And I would do so with different expectations ...
Can’t beat the great location it’s wonderful for a family gathering however our walk through check in upon arrival left us with concerns over its need for attention and maintenance / management made a concerted effort to resolve issues We overcame them and had a wonderful vacation
The Turtleback Beach house was perfect for our family of 7! The large family room, kitchen, dining area was very nice. Having 2 refrigerators was also a bonus for our family. The pool table was enjoyable as well as the hot tub. We enjoyed the view of the gulf & the beach area was very private it is a deep beach, so be prepared for a walk to the ocean. There are many local restaurants that are close by & have a variety of seafood to order from. 10/10 for this beach house!! We will definitely be back!
The house is very good ! Furniture is old but for a few days there’s no problem ! All mattresses are uncomfortable! Should be replaced! And Gulf of America is awesome !
I can’t say enough good things about this property!
We absolutely loved our stay here. Our group is already looking to plan another trip back. Can’t say enough about the house and the location, it’s absolutely perfect!
This house was beautiful, clean and just as pictured! My family and I enjoyed our stay and wished it were longer! We'll definitely recommend and be back!
We had a wonderful time at this property! Very spacious and accommodates a big group. The view from the balcony was amazing and access to the private beach was a super quick and easy short walk. Quick walk to beach bars / restaurants too! The beds are VERY comfortable. Would highly recommend staying at this property.

Reviewer Comments:
The house is located right on the beach and the area is not super crowded. The house is very nice and roomy. We had a great stay there and would book it again if we wanted to visit the area. My only complaint would be that the hot water heater and both refrigerators are on the same breaker and it trips every time they are all running at the same time so you have to keep checking to make sure the refrigerators are still on.
