The lodging was adequate, plenty of space. Extra TP and other amenities not supplied so it could have felt more welcoming. House was a little outdated. But great location close to 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 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 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

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.

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!
