Great stay at Newport Beach. Easy to communicate with and accommodating. Really convenient to have beach chairs and umbrella to use. Thankful for the fans provided on the hot days. Enough space for my family of four (2 teenagers) to stay comfortably.I could work from the kitchen table as my office without disturbing them them while in the bedrooms.

Pleasing beach experience
Clean, quiet space. Easy access to the beach. Overall very nice space to operate our vacation out of. Couple small items could make the stay even better - very little kitchenware. Only 5 place settings, so we had to wash dishes every time we ate. Almost nothing to cook with - had to buy ourselves a baking sheet. Some beach accessories would have been nice too, there are sports courts right at this point of the beach, so a soccer ball or pickleball set would have been great. Small things though, a very nice stay otherwise.

Great stay, close to the beach!
We had a great stay in this house! It was just a few blocks from the beach! It was very clean and had plenty of room for our family of 5. It’s in a clean and safe neighborhood. We had a private carport to use, which was so nice to not have to worry about parking. We cooked several meals in the house and it had sufficient cookware. There were 5 beach towels, beach chairs, umbrella, toys and a boogie board. Our family was very grateful for those beach items!
It was very hot during our stay and although there’s not AC in the house, there were fans on the ceiling in the bedrooms and several box fans we could use.
My only complaint would be that the pictures show the front of the house with a porch and chairs. We were expecting that view but that is not actually part of the unit. This house is in the back on the lower level. There’s not a porch or view of any kind. All the windows look at walls or into other houses. So I feel like the picture is misleading.
Overall we were very happy with our stay and would book this house again!

Review of our stay
Great location just a short short walk to the beach. The property is actually bigger than it looks in the pictures and was very clean. We had a great stay. Easy walk to many good restaurants and shopping as well. We had a great stay.

Great place for the family.
The summary of this property is just what it says—close to the beach, some updated things which make it nice, and it’s very clean. The additional perks for us: good water pressure, wifi worked great, I liked the YouTube TV subscription. It’s hot, so we always bring box fans. I’d definitely recommend doing that—no fans provided. Overall happy with the value.

Nice but could be nicer with a few improvements
Had a great time. Place was nice but a few more steps than posted to beach. The deck was nice. Need a few more basics.
No wash cloths. No dish rags. Only four towels. Toaster doesn’t work correctly. No frying pan. Circuit breakers kept popping.
Could use some new blinds for sure. No towel rack in bath. The toilet keeps running if you don’t jiggle the handle.
Just a few minor things and this place would see a huge improvement. Overall we had a great time there.

Misleading
The pictures were deceiving. The furniture was completely falling apart. The couch was shedding, the other couch was stained and dirty, the beds were broken down, we had to use an air mattress instead of a bed. One air mattress had a hole in it so my son ended up be on the floor. Holes in the wall. If the furniture was replaced the experience would be completely different, but paying for a place to sleep and not having the ability to get good sleep is so frustrating.

Needs some TLC
The unit we stayed in was the lower unit. The unit overall is nice.
However there is no privacy as all the blinds are broken. The heater wouldn’t turn off, and they don’t provide floor fans for circulation. It was a brutal 84 degrees in the House.
If they spent some money on some minor updates and provide fans and/or a small portable air conditioner it would have been perfect. We’ll pass next time on this unit.
