Beautiful Balboa beach location! The three bedrooms were spacious and great for our family of six. Restaurants and the pier were only 2 minutes’ walk away. The ferry to Balboa Island was right across the street. The only drawback was the small garage (difficult to park our large SUV). We would definitely stay here again.

Love the location the unit was clean. Parking is very tight. Only usable for smaller cars excellent air conditioning and ceiling fans. Could have been better communication before check-in yet excellent communication after check-in. The king size beds were fabulous and having three full bathrooms was very helpful and the updated renovations were beautiful and very functional.Enjoyed our stay!

GREAT location

This is really the best spot for two couples since its 2 master bedrooms but an additional room, so one couple didn't get stuck with a smaller room. Loved this little gem.

Great location!

Really great location. Good space for a family of five. It's a little noisy, but that comes with being right in the middle of everything so it wasn't anything to complain about -- just be aware if you are looking for quiet location due to kid (or adult) nap schedules or sensory issues.

Spring break vacay

Home was as described and very cute and comfortable. Very close to the beach and parking was not an issue. We used the day pass public parking since my car is large. Easy to use. I would book the same location again.

Great location!

Our family had an amazing stay! We didn't have to drive anywhere because all amenities are in walking distance. The kids enjoyed riding the bikes on the boardwalk. The beach and our go-to coffee shop were just a few steps away. We also walked to the pier which was fun for the whole family. This home was very clean and comfortable.

Great home!

This home is perfect for a large family! Lots of space for everyone and the 3 bathrooms were great, especially for our 4 daughters. Very close to the beach and having the AC was perfect as it did get quite warm. Please note, it is very loud! Nothing owners can do to change that but it’s on a walkway to the beach and on the main street. People yelling, construction and cars back and forth all night.

Great Floorplan

The flat is clean and well laid out with a bathroom for each bedroom. Fun location, though a little noisy at night. Owners thoughtfully provided fans which we used to drown out the sound so the little ones could get to sleep. Overall a positive experience! The hose in the garage was super helpful for rinsing sand off after the beach.

Great location and set up!

The house is set up with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms for each bedroom which was fantastic! The tandem garage was perfect to park in and allowed us to walk everywhere we went. Being steps to the board walk was great for going to the beach and morning and evening walks! As long as the A/C is working and the windows stayed closed the street noise is manageable. The street that the house is located on is attached to the general parking lot for beach parking so many cars use it when leaving the beach. The house is also located steps from Balboa fun park and the ferry. Overall great place!

We Did Enjoy The Stay

The VRBO was excellent. Looked newly remodeled and was decorated in such a nice way. The appliances were wonderful. Top of the line. Although the stackable washer and dryer was quite loud. The big and only drawback was the garage. We found it difficult to get into and out of. Also, if you have older folk, the stairs can be difficult. At night, the traffic is loud and the people walking to and fro. Especially Fri night. We left on a Saturday. The amenities could not have been better. Lots of towels. Thank you for this stay. The location was perfect!
