Waterfront Elegance (Entire Home): Hot Tub, Views
- A jaw-dropping waterfront gem with a private hot tub on Balboa Peninsula! - 2 apartments in a duplex (so 2 full kitchens!) & lots of balcony space - Steps to Balboa Island Ferry, near Balboa Pier & Park with tons of water activity - World-class shopping at Fashion Island, Via Lido, Balboa Island, Bayside Shopping Cntr - Outdoor BBQ patio & beach lounge down by the dock, WiFi, laptop space & parking
Enjoy a glorious Newport Escape with picture-perfect views of Newport Bay, newly renovated living spaces, contemporary decor, and plenty of top-of-the-line amenities.
Open the floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall glass patio doors to expand the space to the outdoors and to the furnished bayfront patio. Perfect for enjoying the fresh air, a little sun, barbecuing, cocktails at sundown, and stellar views all day long.
Prepare meals at home in a gorgeously modern and fully equipped kitchen with high-end stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar. Enjoy indoor dining with “the” view of the century and a salty-sweet bay breeze with the doors open.
There are six bedrooms (2 are lofts) to accommodate 12 guests. The master bedroom with a king-sized bed, and the other rooms with plush queen beds, and they all have en-suite bathrooms!
The top-floor balcony is the sweet spot with a hot tub and a view! The perfect way to unwind after a big beach day!
And don’t forget to take a stroll down the boardwalk dock that leads to a sofa lounge area right on the water.
Stroll the boardwalk, walk pier-to-pier, enjoy water activities and the beach just steps away, ferry to the islands, do some amazing shopping, or play some golf. There is truly something for everyone here!
You’ll have full, exclusive access to the house during your stay. It’s a duplex home with two separate rentals and multiple balconies. Please note that the owner's yacht is moored out front, but it is not accessible to guests.

Waterfront retreat
Location is five stars for proximity to harbor, beach, ferry to Balboa island, restaurants. Property ideal for a family group w multiple rooms and levels to spread out. Property wasn’t quite ready for check-in at 5 PM w cleaners still working, but owner and property manager prompt communicating to rectify the situation

Window to Paradise
We had an amazing 7 night stay at this beautiful property. LOCATION is the BEST. Steps away from the Balboa Pier. Steps away from Newport Beach. Steps away from our own pier and beach. Truly magical stay and one that my family and I will remember for the rest of our days.

Beautiful Bayfront
This beautiful bayfront property has just about everything you will need for your vacation. The house is very clean, kitchen supplies are plentiful, and the decor is very nice. Being just a few steps from the bay is great for young children. We really enjoyed our stay.

Awesome stay!
Our work team stayed here during a convention in the area and it was perfect for 6 of us- everyone had their own space for privacy, but the main area was spacious enough for us to hang out as well. Loved that there were 5 bathrooms and you really can't beat the view. Our host was very communicative and checked in several times to make sure all was going great. We hope to stay here again next year!
