Great place made for a great place!

This home is located in a great location on the marina and walking distance to shops and restaurants. Highly recommend!

After living in Orange County for over 50 years, we moved mom to be closer to us in Oregon. This was a trip to say goodbye to friends and family as well as experience Balboa Island from an insiders point of view! This single level, beautiful house did not disappoint!!!!

What a gem. This house is perfectly situated on little Balboa island. It was exceptionally clean (my Dad is an infectious disease doctor so that says a lot!) and decorated. We were able to fit two cars in the garage so no parking issues. Loved walking out the front door for a walk or a swim/paddle. It’s incredibly serene and peaceful, we were so happy with everything. The host was very proactive at communicating and making sure we had a good stay. We still stay here again.

This house was clean and beautiful. We would rent it again for sure.

It was comfortable and quiet. We loved sitting on the patio and watching all of the activities going on. Walking distance for everything. 2 very minor issues that were corrected very quickly. I would suggest some kind of window covering for the living room. Not any privacy in the living room. We have stayed on the main Balboa Island several times. This was the first time in Little Island and we loved it. Very kind and caring neighbors. We would love to come and stay again!

A great location for a family vacation and plenty of space to host friends or share the space. We had our family of 4 and some family guests and it was plenty of space. Small beach on Balboa island right out front for kids to play. Could have used a few more towels so if you are reading this and you are renting here bring a few extra and your beach towels as they either aren’t supplied or I just couldn’t find them.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My husband and I were a bit concerned prior to our arrival as we just found out that there was a rental unit attached to this home. There is nothing mentioned in the rental info prior or in the description of the property. You only find out in arrival info. The other item of concern was the parking because it was advertised with a two car garage. Again, mentioned more specifically in info prior to arrival that it fits one smaller SVU etc. . That being said, we managed fine and the apartment renters did not bother us all and the garage accommodated our car but just, not room for anything else. It is more a length of car issue than a width. The garage is the only part of the house not remodeled.We were very thankful for air conditioning as it was very warm and humid for our arrival. We had everything we needed and house was in pristine condition. We loved the location and the table and chairs out front with an umbrella. I think it best you make it known that the property is a duplex so there are no surprises. The tenant is able to access side of house but not able to use patio etc.

We have been renting beach houses for a number of years while visiting friends and family in NB. I think we have found our "go to" house on Little Balboa. The house is incredibly clean and well appointed with ample room for 3 adults. The design of the 2 pairs of bi-fold glass sliders allows the living room area to literally be part of the front patio. Fabulous! Combine the wonderful weather, walks to town (plus garage parking!) and the down-low vibe of East Bayfront, all made for a very memorable week. The only slight negative is the "no-use dock" out front, it would have been handy when renting the Duffy. Regardless, great property and agency!

This was a great cottage. We loved it!!

It was roomy enough and close to the main drag. It was great to have a garage as well. The only thing I would change would be darker shades in the primary bedroom and the ability to close the door all the way (there was a hanging mirror that prevented it). My infant daughter had a bit of a hard time falling asleep due to the light. We are 100% planning to return!
