Great Location

We loved the location, but parking was a problem. The original listing said 1 parking spot in garage, 1 parking spot in carport. However, the only parking spot available was the carport and street parking if you could find it. It was a great place but things could use a little sprucing up. We would consider using again if parking was better. I loved that it was very close to the beach and the evenings with the windows open and the fans, it was great sleeping weather. Thank-you!

There are better options….

We recently rented this place (7/21-7/27), and here’s the review Vacasa (property mgmt company) insisted we post. Positives- When we arrived the place was very clean (except the filthy laundry room that is on the lower level). Negatives- After checking in, we get a text from Vacasa stating the dishwasher is broke, & will be replaced on Monday. We arrived on Friday, so we would be w/out a dishwasher for 3-3.5 days of our 7 day stay. When I went to turn the grill on (after buying a bunch of steaks at the grocery store), I noticed the grill regulator was disconnected from the propane tank. Screwed it onto the tank, opened the valve on the tank, and immediately heard and smelled the propane gas coming out of the grill regulator. I texted Vacasa immediately, as well as told the guys replacing the dishwasher on Monday about it. Also, asked that it be fixed while we were there, and Vacasa said it would be.It never was fixed… Then, only 2 of the 5 burners on stove are working. The 2 burners were the smallest of the 5 (we couldn’t even get a large pot of water to boil for pasta) Again, text with Vacasa, about this and they said it will be fixed. Never was. Laundry room was absolutely filthy and as other posts mentioned, coin operated machines.. Vacasa just made promises everything would get fixed, but nothing was. Couldn’t cook anything during our stay, dishwasher was broke half the time, and Vacasa just texted promises but no fixes. there are better options in Newport…

Great location, steps from the beach. Plenty of room for my party of 7. Had issues with Microwave and Coffee Maker, but property manager was quick to respond and remedied the issue quickly. Only criticism would be the laundry area. The machines were Filthy and coin operated. No one carries coins anymore. Thankfully we were only staying the weekend and laundry was not a necessity. Overall, it was a nice place to stay and I would recommend it.

Nice stay with few minor remarks.

We enjoyed our stay during Christmas. Was very clean when we arrived. Only a couple of very minor things that would not prevent me from staying again: The couch cushions were torn and had noticeable holes in them. Really should just go in the garbage. They used the cheapest toilet paper offered. With 5 people in the house we ran out within 2 days and had to purchase our own. For the money you spend on this rental please get better toilet paper. As I mentioned these are minor issues and I would stay there again but just remember to bring my own toilet paper. lol!

Excellent Location

Great place and property. Literal 1 minute walk to beach. Beds just OK, pillows just Ok, cheap. When they say fans in every room is doesn’t mean ceiling fans it means old rusted dirty box fans. Also there is no AC. I we thought no matter it’s 65 degrees. No it’s still very warm at night. No screen on the main patio door really needs one. I have seen this complaint from several others. It needs to be addressed. Also some personal touches would be nice like body boards, surfboards, bicycles. Other than these things. It was a great location and a safe place that I would book again. But it just doesn’t have attention to detail.

50 yards from the beach

We had a very nice stay on Seashore Drive. The condo was extremely functional for my group as we were working in Orange County during our stay. It was relatively easy to find parking, the shopping center nearby has some good restaurants, the neighbors were kind and the beach is literally 50 yards away. Our only issue was that the heater didn't pump much heat to the two back rooms but that's only a potential problem in the winter months. Overall, the condo was clean and functional. Even more, you can see the ocean from the dining room table!

Great location, so-so property

The very best thing about this property is the location: it is just a few steps from the beach and close to restaurants, grocery stores, and entertainment. It even has a sliver of an ocean view. The house itself is fine and we had an enjoyable time. It was clean and while perhaps not well-stocked, at least has most of the essential items you’d expect in a decent rental property. There were sufficient clean towels, including beach towels. However, it is often the little touches that distinguish a property, that make it comfortable versus merely functional. The house lacks any real character and desperately needs some attention. Prior reviews have noted many of the same issues we encountered so they’re not new. While seemingly trivial, over the course of a few days they become extremely annoying. The fixture in the kitchen sink is broken and the faucet head falls into the sink at the slightest touch. The dishwasher is not properly affixed under the counter and as result, as soon as you begin to load it it tips out of the cabinet and tries to dump the dishes you’ve loaded onto the floor. At least one kitchen drawer was broken and falls out, while others don’t close properly. A lamp in the main room would be a nice addition, as would some decor to the sterile rooms, particularly the bedrooms. The wifi never worked for us. We followed the instructions for use and trouble shooting but couldn’t connect. Fortunately we were able to use our phone hotspots so the wifi wasn’t a big issue. In the end, we might return because of the location and the ability to bring pets (though we didn’t have one this time), but there are some easy fixes that would make this place much more pleasant.

Location, location, location, but...

We had a good time staying here. The location was great, just a few steps away from the beach. The listing mentioned no internet so I was surprised to find there was internet. It wasn't working at first but the manager helped get it fixed. Unfortunately, there was a problem with cockroaches. We accidently left some takeout food out and the roaches came out. We didn't cook or make our own coffee due to the roaches. If you don't really use the kitchen, you may not see any roaches.

Careworn and poorly outfitted property

This property featured a black pleather living room couch that was so old it was shedding and stained the back of our legs black. The dishwasher fell out of the cabinetry it was positioned in every time you might pull out the loading rack. The blinds in the back room were broken so there was no sleeping in on vacation. There weren’t any beach items like towels etc. the kitchen gear was so old it was falling apart. Super dissatisfied, considering it was an expensive property. Avoid this one.

Great location

Pros: location was steps from the beach! We enjoyed the freedom of just walking to the beach and walking back to the house. Beach towels were provided along with toiletries and a roll of paper towels. The kitchen was pretty well stocked with plates, pans, pots and utensils. We also enjoyed the spacious living space. The beds were comfy and the coastal breeze cooled the house down. Overall. I would definitely stay again. Cons: There are TVs in most of the rooms except one and none of them have any TV connection. You are unable to even cast to the TVs since they are not smart TVs, you would need to take a Chromecast or a fire stick in order to watch TV in any of the rooms. The large TV in the living room however is a smart TV and you are able to cast to the TV and watch shows. There's a limited number of toilet paper rolls so if you have a large party of mostly girls I definitely would recommend bringing some additional rolls and it does come with one roll of paper towels so you may need to purchase some additional ones depending on the length of your stay. The sofa is falling apart a little bit so you do find little bits of black material on your clothes but other than that it is still a comfy place to just chill and relax after a long day at the beach. There are also only screens on the windows in the bedrooms so the house does tend to get a lot of bugs and flies in there because there is not a screen door on the front door the sliding door or the back windows would you definitely need open to get that cool ocean breeze throughout the living area.

Disappointed I didn’t book this property longer! The location to the beach, restaurants, and shops were perfect! The property is much larger than the pictures show. Plenty of space for our adult children and parents! Loved the dog friendly aspect. TVs in bedrooms could be upgraded to smart TVs. But with the ocean in your backyard who needs tv? There wasn’t a true master bedroom and the beds for two adults are a bit small. The house and amenities were fabulous! We would stay again!

Overall good location and condo. It was too hot in the condo and the fans were not good quality

The location of the condo is great... just few steps away from the beach although its not on the beach. The condo was clean for most part but the fans were very dirty and hard to use. The balcony chairs were also not clean. The shower head was old and shower door was not closing well enough so the whole bathroom would get wet. There was a nice patio terrace on the other side but there was no furniture and it was not clean enough to be useful. It was a nice place and we had a good time but it was not as clean and upgraded as we were expecting. We were charged so much service fees so our expectations were higher.

Love your location!!

We so enjoyed our family stay over the Christmas holiday. So easy to create a home feeling, easy meal preparation and serving. The heating was a problem for the two "back" bedrooms. Two front bedrooms and large room were fine. The back bedrooms were cold, especially at night when doors were closed. Otherwise all was good - meals, walks on beach, pet comfort. Any correctable issues we had were quickly addressed by the property manager. Thank you!
