This property has a great location… walking distance to everything. As with most places on the island… no A/C Which was expected. However, the apartment was stifling upon arrival and never really cooled off enough to be comfortable. There were lots of fans which helped somewhat… we just hit a very hot stretch of weather.

We had a great time, it’s a darling place, true to the photos, the beds were made up beautifully, sofa very deep & comfortable, kitchen has everything you need, perfect place for 2 to 4 guests. We look forward future stays here. Thanks to the owners for keeping it updated & available for vacationers.

This place was super clean, beautiful and so close to the beach. We loved spending time there

the noise from the street comes through the windows and the air conditioning does not work, but luckily there were fans in the apartment

Beach vibes and location were some of the many things that we loved. Both beds were very comfortable and spacious. A lot of bang for the buck, can’t go wrong with this place. Will probably make this out little get away each year.

Great location. Walking distance to restaurants and shops. Wonderful to have washer/dryer and garage parking. Nice property, well equipped, We were there during a hot summer and the lack of AC made afternoons uncomfortable, even with ceiling fans and other fans. Experienced internet and TV problems that we resolved with Spectrum on our own after a half day of working with them - should be fixed now.

Great location and the apartment was nicely furnished, comfortable beds, etc. We did have to go buy an additional fan though. No air conditioning but we understand it is by the beach. Biggest issue. No WIFI. It was a working vacation and the VRBO add said it came with WIFI. The WiFi there was mostly non functional. The neighbor came by and gave me a password to theirs so we had limited access. The instructions provided to access WiFi were inaccurate and different than what was actually at the residence. We called the local property manager but they had no information, at least that worked. In any case I spent much of the time at the local Starbucks using their WIFI. And the TV cable did not work and there was no Wifi. So we had no Tv/movies the whole time. I am inclined to ask for some sort of credit as this was not as advertised and I had to spend much of my stay there away from the property due the the la k of WiFi. Again, the VRBO add indicated TV and WIFI?

Darling place that pretty much is exactly what you see in the pictures. Great location on the island and HUGE BENEFIT of a garage. I have a large SUV which we needed to make some modifications to in order to fit in the garage so if you drive a large SUV, the garage may not work for you but at least you have somewhere to park your bikes. The kitchen was well stocked and the appliances all worked great. Plenty of room for our family of 4 and plenty of lighting options. Fantastic cooling breezes when you open the windows. The Downfalls: Typical Vacasa paper towels and singly plky toilet paper which sucks. Not enough supply for our 4-day stay. When there is no tissue in the house, you have to use toilet paper or paper towels, We rean out of both. We ended up using paper towels in the bathroom on our last day since we ran out of toilet paper. (Thrown in the trash - not flushed down the toilet.) There were only 2 washcloths, 2 hand towels and 4 bat towels. Not enough for a family of four over four days. We requested more and ended up getting some towels the night before we checked out. The roman shades in the kitchen over the sink were broken. They came in and just flipped them up over the top to keep them open. Now, no option for privacy so I flipped them back down. One of the kitchen chairs had a leg that was literally hanging on by a thread. They came and tightened it up as best as they could. The ceiling fan in the second bedroom did not work........

Great location, extremely clean, and comfortable beds. Has well equipped kitchen cozy space and parking. 1/2 between the main strip and the ferry and very close to trail. Will def be back. Only thing to note is there isn’t A/C, but the fans and open windows work.

We loved staying on Balboa Island and the location was great. However, there were several stains on fabric sofa, ottoman and dining chairs. The sofa’s feathers were packed hard and/or missing in popular sitting spots hurting my back. The utensils were missing several forks and a few other items. I’d also strongly suggest that they upgrade their choice of items in a gift starter bag. I truly appreciate gifts but not the very lowest quality paper products. The washer and dryer was wonderful and soap was provided which was very nice. It is located in the garage so one must go outside to enter the garage to wash/dry clothes. The only bathroom had a tall tub which is hard for a 5’ tall person to get in/out of. The only sink allowed only a very small area to rest necessary items. There were only two wash rags that repealed water. I requested more and those were the very lowest quality also. Water was just smeared and wouldn’t be absorb. Finally, to use the garage you must pull partially off the street, get out and use a code to open the door before entering. Same is true when leaving. We mostly parked on the street however appreciated knowing we always had a parking spot!! I hope this info is helpful to both the renting agency and future occupants.

Overall we had a wonderful stay at this property. The property had just about everything we needed, but could have provided us with a few more towels. Condo was nicely appointed and furnished and electronics were easy to function. Proximity to marine and ferry were terrific. One down side is there is no out door space or patio with a grill. Other than that, wonderful stay!

Beautiful apartment walking distance to everything! Garage is a plus!

Perfect Balboa Island location. Easy access to restaurants, ferry and beaches. The unit had nice upgrades and new appliances. Very clean. Close to other houses so with the windows open you can hear others but things quiet down early. Definitely recommend.

It appeared as if it had been remodeled. The appliances seemed new. The walls appeared to be recently painted. The bathroom was very clean and updated. It was in above average condition. It is a short walk to the ferry and downtown. Very nice.

I loved the place I’ll go again in a month
