This was a great stay. Very very close to the beach, friendly people. A bit noisy when you leave the windows open, due to being on the side of a road and close to a highway. Only negative would be the mattresses are not that comfortable overall this is a great little place!

Perfect Vacation Spot
This place was perfect for a quick little getaway. It’s within 200 feet of the beach, lots of things to do around the area, and our pups loved being able to run around on the beach.

short holiday at the beach
It was what we expected of a 1950's vintage cottage. Was great location to park the car and get around on bikes. Definitely recommend renting the bikes as they will be there when you arrive and picked up when you leave.

Great location, steps to the sand!
We had a wonderful time, the staff was great and communicative. The kitchen was huge and the property was spacious. It doesn’t face the ocean as it’s set back a little, but it’s literally steps from the Newport Dog Beach!

It was a nice mental health get away with fun little barrels out front Sunday morning
The property was the quintessential beach house. It was clean and simple. The only recommendation would be to add on a simple outside shower off the water spicket by the parking to rinse off other than that completely satisfied. Thank you

Great Beach House
This house is perfect for your beach stay. Just steps away from the beach and very central to everything else around Newport Beach and just 6 min drive to Huntington Beach. Balboa Bay has amazing restaurants and a perfect spot to launch paddle boards at Newport Dunes. Our Ram 1500 with a Hitch Thule Locker fit in the parking space and that was very convenient as parking is very limited. The house does not have a yard or a garage but the beach just steps away is yours for the taking! We would stay here again for sure.

The check in process was easy and quick. The location was perfect.
This house was steps from the beach and in a very quiet neighborhood. We walked the the cafe down the street each day for coffee and pastries which were yummy!! The bathroom is updated but in the shower the hot and cold water seemed to be backwards. Normally the further left you turn the knob, the water gets hotter but this house the water got colder. Other than that everything was great!

A great little spot
First and foremost, this is a common beach house. You have to know going in that there is no A/C. If you're good with that, and we were, this is the perfect spot for a little R&R. It's down near the jetty close to Huntington Beach so you are away from most of the beach traffic in the summer. Most people go to 32nd street and south to the pier. There are fans in each of the rooms if needed and it seemed to have everything we needed. My only complaint is that on the day of check out the maid arrived about an hour before we were due to check out and parked directly in front of the door. While she was super nice, it really made us feel like we needed to get out of there before checkout.

Nice enough place not best location for our needs
This location was nice enough. I feel it lacked certain dishes etc. No spices to cook with like other places we've stayed even during covid. I prefer to have the information about getting into home when i get there instead of having to go off Location to pick up and return keys. Not much places to eat and no shopping in the area. Pretty much had to drive to do anything. Front left burner didn't work on stove. I feel it's a little overkill how many times it is brought to your attention to make sure you check out at 10. Doesn't make it a very welcoming experience.

Relaxing
Since I’d never been to Newport, I was happily surprised to find our rental 100 ft from the beach. It was beautiful. The home was old but remodeled nicely and much larger than expected. It was clean and the beds were comfortable. Only a couple items that I felt needed attention. The heater was not usable the first night and it was a cold weekend, but I contacted the management and they sent someone to fix it the next afternoon. There were no staple condiments in the kitchen, salt, pepper, cooking oil, etc. The toilet didn’t flush well and would run so you’d have to jiggle the handle often. The staff handled any questions immediately with a few exceptions, I stay there again.
