The unit was superbly clean when we arrived! I had also forgotten to ask for a pack n play ahead of time and didnt call until that first evening. Even though it was after hours, I immediately was answered and they brought one over that night!The location was amazing! Walking distance to the beach, playground, Balboa pier, the fun zone, the ferry to Balboa Island and lots of good places to eat (HIGHLY recommend Great Mex restaurant!)and window shop! We had an infant, 1.5 y/o and 3 y/o and we still easily managed to get around. It was really nice not having to drive, as parking quickly became a hot commodity over the holiday weekend! Speaking of parking, we had 2 generous sized spots under the unit, that fit both mini vans comfortably.We also had a little peekaboo view of the beach from our bedroom window which was a bonus! Overall we had a wonderful experience at Newport beach thanks in large part to our wonderful, convenient accommodations. I would highly recommend renting a unit from this property management group, they did a great job!

We had a wonderful stay! The location was great - biked and walked to beach, restaurants and shops. The apartment was a perfect place to relax with our adult kids. All of the supplies we needed were on hand. And communication with the host was great. Would definitely stay again!

My husband and I brought my parents and our teen children here for a quick getaway. The location is great, the beach is just a short walk behind the house and one of the rooms has a nice view of it. The weather was slightly chilly but we enjoyed one afternoon at the beach and saw so many dolphins! We took a nice walk East one day and admired the gorgeous multi- million dollar beach homes. If you walk the other direction you are very close to the shops which include a cute candy store, yummy ice cream place and the normal beach town shops. The house is about a 15 minute drive to Fashion Island, which has many options but we always love to get great Mexican food at Red O. The house was clean. Don't be alarmed when walking up old, musty stairs of building. Once you open the door to the property, everything gets much better! There are 2 main bedrooms, which worked perfectly for our group. Each had plenty of room and their own bathroom. And then the kids had their own bathroom as well, so we were all happy. We had a slight issue because the Keurig coffee pot needed cleaned and I couldn't find an easy way to contact the managers. That could be on me, I'm not super tech savvy. So we remedied it by walking to a very close and cute coffee shop every morning, and all was well. I did email the managers about the coffee and my guess would be that it is now fixed. Everything else was in good working order.

The instructions for arrival and check-in were completely wrong. There were instructions to use a lockbox to gain a key. However, there was no key necessary. The instructions on how to get to the front door were confusing. The parking instructions were also confusing.Once at the front door, the key did not work. There was a code box but no instructions on how to use a code to get in. We had to call the office, but while we waited for the office to call us back, we just started entering codes and found out that the code was the same as the lock box. It was frustrating to not have the instructions correct The other issue with this property was that it did not come with a warning of construction happening right next-door. The construction was very loud from early in the morning till evening and strangers could see directly into the house the entire time this made it very uncomfortable to use showers And just enjoy breakfastThere should have been a warning that if you chose this property, you would have to deal with construction the construction workers took up many parking spots on the street and sometimes made it difficult to get out of the garageThis property would have been great if we would have been given the warnings
