Incredible Views!

This place was ideal for a beach vacation! Steps from the sand, incredible sunsets, close proximity to stores and restaurants. We couldn’t have asked for more! We will definitely book again!

Excellent

Can't beat being on the sand in Balboa Peninsula. We've spent family vacations in Newport for 12 years at another place and this is our new favorite.

What a great beachfront condo

What a great beachfront condo. This was the second year in a row we stayed here for Super Bowl weekend. We love the location of being right on the sand. The condo is perfect for us as we can also walk to the boardwalk and Uber to restaurants in the area. We look forward to staying here next year.

absolutely beautiful

This location was absolutely beautiful. Very active beach but still peaceful. Met some very friendly locals also. Jake at check-in was super nice and helpful when I called with a few questions. House was updated, modern, & clean. It was also well equipped with everything needed to cook. Would definitely stay here again

Excellent!

We came for Disneyland, but will be returning for the beach. The water was a little cold, but we quickly warmed up in the sand which is right outside the front patio! The patio was excellent.

Loved being right on the sand with no walkway separating us from the beach. Definitely worth it

Family staycation

The perfect location for my small family. My husband, and my three month old infant son stayed for two nights and three days. We celebrated my 40th birthday with friends on the beach, a beautiful barbecue, and watch the bioluminescence with our ocean view. It was absolutely perfect and all of our Day guests also enjoyed the stay. The neighbors are wonderful also!

Amazing Beachfront Property

The beachfront property was exactly what the photos portrayed. The location was perfect. It was a short 20 minute walk to the boardwalk. We never really needed to use our car. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing stay.

Could have been a gem

The pictures painted an ideal location and set up for a quick family getaway for us. While our stay was hampered significantly by a heavy storm, the property itself was fine despite the leaking water in through the front door. The stay itself I believe was ruined by the property management company. It started with the reservation process and draconian and endless rules to stay there. We guess this is meant for college kids abusing a beach front property. However, the rules were endless and the check in process unwelcoming and invasive. You had to provide a picture ID and names of those staying with you. Anyone other than those individuals caught at the property would cause you to be evicted. Really? You then get provided the check-in information literally 5 minutes before you get there and need to show your face to the camera in order to get in. We arrived at night and in the rain. We tried calling on the Ring camera with no avail. So we entered with the code. We then were followed up with calls to show our face to the camera to verify it was us. They proceeded to call us about our license plate # although parked in the garage followed up with check-out reminders shortly after we arrived. This all was coupled with providing only the bare essentials and ignoring our complaint about leaking water into the house. Let's not talk about the crabby upstairs neighbor who blocked our car in the shared garage! We will not rent another property from this company again.

Great location, but probably wouldn't stay again

The location is 5 stars, but the amenities fell short for us. We are vacation home rental owners, so maybe we have higher expectations, but we have never stayed at another vacation rental with such minimal stocking. We cook a lot and the kitchen stocking was ok, missing a few key things such as pot holders so we had to use the few kitchen towels they left out for us which was dangerous. They also leave very minimal amount of bath towels for the stay and the size of the bath towels were extremely small(barely fit around our 4 and 7 year old slender kids). They do have a washer and dryer so we were able to wash towels often. Also, the garage is attached to the home but has a keypad code and no garage door opener was provided, so we would have to get out on the busy street, the go around and put the code in on the side door(no garage door code provided either) to open the garage door everytime. We found it annoying also to have 2 separate codes to enter the garage and then the unit, maybe that's just us! Wasn't a smooth process getting in and out. The finishes in the home are nice, but both sets of closet doors could not stay on track and would fall off which was also annoying. A broom would also be nice to tidy up extra sand, they did have two old vacuums you could use but a broom and dish pan would probably work better. We also heard running water in the middle of the night a lot, bring a noise machine if noise from upstairs until bothers you at night. Upstairs people were very quiet overall but the water running was the most annoying in the middle of the night. I'm NOT a complainer so hate leaving a review like this to a fellow owner, but they need to make a few changes to make it a more pleasant experience. It was SO nice to go right out to the beach and was a beautiful location. We did have a great trip overall!

Great Weekend

Property was perfectly located right on the beach, far enough away from main pier so it felt secluded, but close enough to access shops and dining. Patio was the best part, with chairs and barbecue to entertain guests. Booked this property for a weekend and it did not disappoint

Can't be beat!

This location can't be beat and it was overall a great value. You walk out of the double-doors and you are at the beach. The ocean breeze comes right in if you leave doors open! We had a great time with family and really were able to spend more time at the beach than any vacation we've ever had due to this excellent location. If I had to critique about something I'd say the Living Room area could use more seating (although dining room table is right there and has lots of seating) but I'm no interior designer and I'm not sure how you could functionally seat any more. The patio is where it's at anyway. Enjoy!

Needs improvement.

This review is on the PROPERTY. I must first acknowledge that EVERYONE I came into contact with Beachview were amazing, and Customer Service was EXCELLENT....from the reception, to checking in, and the guy riding the property on the bike to make sure we werent breaking any rules. Very nice people. Yet, I have to review, as to where when one spends this much money, you need to choose, before you pick. The beds were SO hard, that I wound up sleeping on the couch, as to get some rest after the 2nd night of sleeping basically on concrete. My son and daughter in law wound up pulling mats in the closet and putting them on the living room floor to try to sleep. My back is still hurting immensley from my Vacation....very old furniture.. Nightstands, old wood, and very scratched up. screens are very dissapated, and virtually gone. Some blinds work....some dont, wash the dishes before you use them....half of them are dirty with reminants..Heres the icing on the cake.....Woke up in the am to a HOMELESS sleeping directly on other side of brick fence.....The neighbor came out and told him to leave, as we spoke and he was noticed sleeping there prior, and he was concerned for his wife and I was worried about our small children.....wonderenig where the bike rider "security" was then....lol.....Lots of traffic, as on a corner inlet for public beach. Trucks, Life Guard, Police driving in and out. A LOT of foot-traffic on and off beach at all hours. NOT walking distance to the Pier, Nor the shops. Unless you want to take a long walk.Very disappointed, Will NEVER rent this property again.
