Location great but extremely loud

Location was great but the very loud all hours. Unit was clean but felt like there was a layer of sand on all the floors. Outside furniture on lower level was very dirty and gross. Needs a good clean and power wash. Beds were very comfortable! Don’t rent a big car if planning to use the garage. We had a Nissan Pathfinder and it was extremely hard getting in and out of garage especially if cars were parked on street. Disappointed that we couldn’t check in 1/2 hour early even when unit was empty and cleaners had left.

Fun family vacation but filthy house :}

Rating Details: I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. I was happy with the location. The vacation rental was very dirty. The property manager was adequately helpful. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I am not usually the person that writes negative things about anything... But when we got to the property, I cried and was so upset. I have been saving up and planning a family vacation all year. It's the first time I was able to take my whole family (my adult 3 children and their spouses and 3 grandbabies) on vacation so that we could all be together for a week. This house was filthy dirty and in disrepair. I was so very disappointed. And it had a dangerous situation for young children in the 2nd bedroom upstairs. The sliding glass screen door was rusted and broken and couldn't close and was bent off the track on the bottom leaving a large opening...a perfect situation for a young child to put their foot/leg through and fall/get stuck or get cut or really hurt so we couldn't leave the sliding door open during the day (no A/C so was hot with no breeze) without locking the bedroom door to keep the little ones out... it is definitely a dangerous situation. The blinds were filthy and some were trashed, the baseboards and window sills and screens were caked with dirt and the floors were filthy; our feet were all black on the bottom from walking on the floor barefoot the very first night we got there. Other than the dangerous sliding door and the broken blinds and the dirtiness of the place it was a wonderful vacation. Just another note, on Friday and Saturday nights there is ALOT of noise and people partying until 1 or 2 a.m. because this home is just a few doors down from the bars and at 5:30 in the morning the street sweepers start so you won't get a lot of sleep so definitely not a good property for families with small children but would probably be great for young adults just having fun. However, the ocean and the view were awesome and it was wonderful to be able to walk right out onto the beach and people watch on the boardwalk. The beach is beautiful and the sand is very soft. Will definitely go back to Newport for years to come but never to this property... Manager responded on 10/25/2017: First, we want to apologize that you arrived to a property that had not been properly cleaned and had an outstanding maintenance issue. This is truly disappointing as we strive to exceed the

The property manager was very helpful. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Considering the cost of the place, this owner needs to spend time money fixing and cleaning up the place. Not worth staying again, but Burr White did a great job Manager responded on 10/26/2016: I am sorry that you were not happy with your vacation property, but we wanted to thank you for sharing your feedback. Your comments have been documented and will be reviewed to help us improve the property for future guests. We hope to help you find a better beach rental for your next vacation.

2314 Oceanview Family Vacation

Rating Details: I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. I was very happy with the location. The vacation rental was very clean. The property manager was very helpful. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: All in all, this vacation rental is worth it. While not as expensive as many other beachfront properties, it definitely has it's strengths and weaknesses. The location is ideal if you want to be close to where the action is (just a couple of buildings over from the hotel, restaurants, bars, etc). It is great for people watching and just a step away from the beach/ocean. It isn't as renovated as other properties along Oceanfront for sure, but it still is clean and spacious. This property does not have AC and that made it a little hot, stuffy, and humid even in our mid-October visit so it would be something to keep in mind if you are looking for a summer rental. We kept the garage door cracked and the front window open to keep a breeze coming through but with the location, you do hear a lot of folks leaving the bar at night so if you're a light sleeper, it may be a challenging fit. We had ants the first day but called Burr White right away and they took care of everything within an hour. All in all, we're going to be coming back.

On the beach

Rating Details: I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. I was very happy with the location. The vacation rental was very clean. The property manager was very helpful. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our two night stay at this house was great. The location can't be beat. Right on the beach. No road for the kids to cross to get there. Located on a dead end, one way street so there isn't much traffic that way either. Within a couple of blocks of restaurants and a bakery. We really appreciated the sand toys in the garage for the boys to play with. Cons: The house has a garage (or two if you rent both units). It was a very tight turn to get the minivan in the garage if there was a car parked across the street. We ended up parking across the outside of the garage and had no trouble. The upstairs carpet felt weird. It was like it didn't get rinsed well last time it was cleaned? The staff at Burr White were very accommodating with our late reservation and arrival. Manager responded on 3/2/2015: Unfortunately, the garages here on the peninsula are smaller because Newport Beach built most of the housing before larger cars became popular. Also, the maintenance team has been notified of the carpet issue. We will have that addressed immediately. Again, thank you for your input so that we may improve our services and we are glad that you enjoyed your stay at the beach.

Best Weekend Ever!

Rating Details: I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. I was very happy with the location. The vacation rental was spotless. The property manager was very helpful. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our location was outstanding - right on the beach and walkable to everything. Everyone at Burr White was so helpful. The property was clean and looked just like the photos. The only minor problem was that the internet was pretty spotty. Other than that, great girls weekend, we are even considering making it annual! I would highly recommend this property and Burr White as a rental agency. I was able to handle everything over email from NYC - even signing the contract.
