Ocean Overlook

This was my family's first Spring Break stay in Newport. This location was wonderfully placed near the pier boardwalk to be close to the restaurants and shops yet it was private enough to step away when you needed some quiet. The location over the Pipeline was quiet and the view was amazing! We appreciated the heaters on the balcony and inside the home as well. The house is updated and has a warm beach vibe. It was clean and well maintained. Check in was easy and the property management team was very efficient and helpful. The welcome gift was a wonderful touch! Thank you Vicki from Burr White, we appreciate your help! We would definitely book again!

Great location!

This property is at Newport Beach Pier right on the walking/biking trail to Balboa Pier (1.5 miles). It is an older (classic!) unit, but is clean and has a renovated kitchen and bathroom. It is above a take-out restaurant that is hardly noticeable (no smells or noise). Great place to stay!

Beach Getaway

We’ve stayed in Newport by the Pier a couple of times before but this was our first time at this property. We loved it! The unit was well stocked, extremely comfortable/cozy and the location is wonderful with a lot of food options and bars around.The property has a back entrance so there is no front access to the beach however the walk is short and easy. We did not consider this prior to arrival and other properties we’ve stayed at have front stairs straight to the beach however with the Pipeline restaurant below this wouldn’t be feasible. You have to go out the back alley and around the restaurants/shops just to the right of the property but again, it’s a short distance and easy walk. There is AC! They even have a small portable one for the living area (larger is by bedrooms in back) which is a first for us at the beach and absolutely made our stay more comfortable. The bedrooms/beds, living area, and bathroom are all well appointed, updated, and very comfortable. There is no laundry facility, which was fine, but also something we’ve had at other rentals. It is a nice option to have with kids and beach grime but not at all a deal breaker for us. Overall we really loved our stay here and will definitely be back! We did arrive later than the check in time so the rental office was closed but they accommodated a virtual check in for us. We were notified that the unit was ready pretty early in the day (earlier than check in); if we’d been closer we’d have had an “extra” day!

Great Location!!!

This property is the perfect place for budget minded individuals to have a million dollar view and stay in a great location. The condo was the perfect place for my 2 friends and I to spend 5 nights. The inside of the condo was very comfortable and updated. While the outside could use a little TLC, it was very functional and provided an awesome view to people watch and view the sunset. Absolutely loved walking up and down the oceanfront walkway to see all the incredible neighboring homes and the ocean. Condo has everything you needs from fans to towels to beach chairs. I would highly recommend.

Location, location, location

Upside: The management company is AMAZING!!! This property is in a prime location to the pier. For the price point I don't think you find an ocean front property like this. You can walk or bike anywhere. The parking is in the back so you interact with the staff at the restuarant below all the time. They are super helpful and friendly. The beds were comfortable and the home cozy. The downsides. The is place was recently remodeled but rugs, bedding and furniture is dated. There is a bar scene and a homeless population (small) but we weren't out late enough for either to become a huge issue. I think this place is a win--win for any family of 4.
