Amazing location

This property is located on the water and within walking distance to the Main Street with shops and restaurants. While we had a car, it is not needed to enjoy Balboa Island. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was one of the best stocked kitchens we have used in terms of appliances, etc. that were there. Highly recommend staying there.

Balboa dream spot

This cute home was the perfect place for us for a week in early June. The property is a duplex and we had the front part that faced the bay. Sitting on the patio made for great people watching both on and off the water. The home is nicely furnished and the kitchen had plenty of cookware and utensils. We liked that there was an extra refrigerator in the garage available for guests use. Beds were all comfortable and the easy walking distance to shops and restaurants made for a delightful stay. We look forward to coming back!!

Nice Location on the Water

This property is a perfect location on Balboa Island. Just a few blocks from restaurants, pubs, shopping and grocery store. Convenient parking for one car available in the attached garage. Open floor plan and large front patio with BBQ grill that looks out on a beach and the back bay. Plenty of beds to sleep a group of 8. Bathrooms and showers are in every bedroom. This is a popular location with lots of guests in the busy season. It’s also a beach cottage. That being said, the dishes, cupboards, walls and vents are not very clean. We enjoyed our stay and spent lots of time outside, on the patio and on the beach.

Wonderful Location

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Wonderful location, beautiful house, awesome amenities with some (very minor) issues. The oven consistently does not work and the back bedroom has issues with the air conditioner not working. This has been a recurring issue as we have stayed here several years in a row. The most recent stay the house was not cleaned as thoroughly as in years past. There was sand everywhere- almost like the vacuum didn't quite work? But overall the location is amazing, the house is really nice, and the rental agency is professional and organized. We hope we get to stay here as many years as we are able.
