Balboa Island Charmer
Charming, original one bedroom apartment steps to the beach and Balboa Island's main street. This upstairs unit comfortably sleeps two, with a queen bed in the bedroom. The light and airy living room has a fireplace, UHD TV with cable and WiFi. The kitchen is well stocked. Beach chairs, umbrella and towels are included.
this place was so cute & perfect for my boyfriend and I! we were able to walk down to the Balboa shops & to the ferry. We were also able to bike around to newport and the beach. The place is bigger than the pictures give off and we had plenty of room for the two of us to relax and hang out! would recommend & book again!
My friends and I had a lovely stay at the balboa island charmer! The home is within walking distance to so many activity and iconic spots. 10/10 would stay again!!
This place is so perfectly located and Cheryl is such an awesome host! The place is perfect hub for everything before going out and exploring Balboa, Newport or wherever you choose to go! Like the title says, this is our 3rd stay and look forward to our 4th, 5th and 6th stay!
We were hit with a smell upon walking in. Smelled old, not clean- not really sure how to describe it. Pictures made it look much nicer than it was. I wore flip flops the entire time I was in the unit, not wanting to go barefoot. Just felt gross. The bathroom was disgusting. It was a step up from camping. The shower was barely a trickle coming out of shower head. We were very disappointed. The place needs cleaned up and updated.
Cozy place everything we need and in great walking distance to all the shops and stores on Balboa Island. Price was great, was a little cramped for 3 people, 2 adults and daughter, but otherwise had everything we needed for mellow vacation stay.
We enjoyed using the wood burning stove. The smell was amazing! My family are runners so we loved the 2 1/2 mile loop of the two islands! Weâd wake up early and set out on the beautiful paved trail. I miss it already!
Everything was just perfect. Bed is comfortable and has everything you need in the kitchen. Very close to town with places to eat and shop. Nice walk around the island on the bay front. There is a 3 car ferry to take you over to the ocean and Fun Zone. Nice restaurant on the bay with a great view. Newport Landing. Our host is the best and it's probably my 5th or 6th time staying there. I come back every year. :)
It could use some new bed pillows because the ones available were very badly stained and old. We found cockroaches in the kitchen so a treatment needs to be applied to the unit. Would be helpful to have had additional linens in the bathroom since we were there 4 nights & had to use 3 towels between 2 people. Good location.
We are from the area so we knew we wanted to be on Balboa Island. It was the perfect location! The price was reasonable and it had all the amenities and then some! We really, really enjoyed our stay!
Great location, walking distance to shops, restaurants and ferry. The unit was upstairs. It was cozy, all the amenities we needed were there. Window AC was ok,it was loud. We kept windows open to let breeze in which meant curtains also had to be open so there was no privacy. The shower in bathroom had a low pressure and the toilet bowl at times didnt flush properly. There was a little note by the toilet bowl handle that said the handle when water is running. It was kind of annoying.
The location could not have been any better. We were centrally located on the island as well as close to Newport Beach, where our daughter lives. Our son also had a house on the island for our family get together. It could not have been planned any better logically. Everything Was just as listed in the description.
What a wonderful time! Balboa Island is such a charming place. The main street has plenty of restaurants and shopping to keep you well fed and entertained. I particularly enjoyed Ciao Balboa for dinner and Wilma's Patio for breakfast. The pizza at Snipe Island Craft House was very good for lunch. Be sure to take the ferry and explore the Balboa Pier area as well The property was as advertised and very well kept. Check in and check out were very easy and the owner very quick to respond to communication. I look forward to visiting again.
