Cute little house
We really enjoyed our stay in this cute little house. The location, the home, and the amenities were all great. The only thing that we did not enjoy was the mattress. We slept terrible, it was so lumpy. I've honestly never slept on a worse mattress in my life. An upgrade to the mattress is definitely needed.

First floor of a small, one bedroom bungalow just two blocks to the beach in a very quiet neighbourhood, perfect for a couple. Close to excellent grocery store. Beach towels and beach chairs provided and good, working bbq.

This was our second time booking this property for our summer getaway to Newport. It works well for a small toddler and couple. The home is clean, cute, walking distance to everything you want to do in Newport, and parking was easy to find on the street. We highly recommend booking!!

While this house isn't the most expensive house on the block it wasn't cheap by any means. Cons: No ceiling fans in the house. For an area known for no AC having no ceiling fans is a problem. There are 3 floor fans that barely do anything. It was so muggy in the house. Even with all windows and doors open. The worst part is both the living room and bedroom could have fans. The power is there. The floors are very dirty. After about 5 mins our feet were black. The rug in the living room isn't the same as the picture. The current one is made out of the same material outdoor furniture is. My kid scraped his knee on the rug multiple times. Bad enough to bleed. The kitchen is nice but there are a lot of issues. One fridge door hits the wall one hits the oven door. You can only open them about 45% of the way. air and water filter need replacing Can't open the microwave door all the way. Hits the stove. The BBQ has a burner on the side that is falling off The owner lives up stairs and tends to move his furniture around a lot for some reason? He also has a small dog that yaps at people walking by. Woke me up at 6am. The Wi-Fi isn't very strong. The TV won't really connect. The only streaming option that works is Netflix and just barely Pros: Close to the beach Nice patio

Perfect location in Newport!
Our family had an amazing time at this beach house! A very quick walk with the kids to the beach, great beach for little ones! The house was very clean and stocked with everything we needed in the kitchen, coffee pot and filters, even dishes for the kids! The neighbors were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Great location, great house!! My only tips, in this particular house, rent the rollaway twins, because the mats weren't comfortable for my kiddos. For older kids or adults, I wouldn't even attempt not renting them, The included floor fans really helped us with weekend night noise. Ask about any construction in the area, immediately across the street in front of the house, an entire house was gutted and being worked on early morning throughout the entire day on week days. We were gone during the day, but mornings and dinner time were noisy. 10/10 would stay here again. Hopefully construction is done next time we visit! Thank you Newport Beach!!

I thought the property was very nice. Just one suggestion..it would be great if you could provide instructions for the TV. Also if you would let visitors know what streaming services are available and how to access them. Also the heating unit in the back of the rental is a little sketchy. It was making a banging noise so I just didn’t use it.

Pictures definitely did not do it justice. Just what we needed for our long weekend away! Beach was across the street, grocery store a short walk away next to awesome food locations as well! We were able to ride bikes everywhere and easily get to any spot we wanted! Highly recommend this place!

I would not stay here again as a family of four.
When we checked in there was a massive amount of flys everywhere. We contacted the property manager and we’re told to keep the doors closed. Coming from Arizona we don’t rent a beach house to keep the doors closed and ESP when there is no AC. Finally after a few emails, I called and they sent someone who also saw the massive amount of flys. They said it was the trash can, and he hosed off the front. We didn’t even want to spend time in the house because of the flys. Bring your own soap because they put it in a ketchup bottle looking jar- gross! We will not be staying here again. The owner lives up stairs and we didn’t feel like we have privacy.

Great place. I’m from Newport. This was not a vacation. In town for family reason. Perfect for the occasion. Parking is hard, but it’s the beach, to be expected. Can hear the neighbor on the phone and vacuuming, but it’s the beach, to be expected. Perfect for two adults.

Very comfortable and clean. Fully furnished, kitchen was stocked with all the amenities. My wife and I cooked a thanksgiving meal. Board walk for bike rides across the street. Overall a great location to all the locations of Newport, balboa and Huntington Beach.

The location was a nice distance from the beach and well located from the grocery store as well as restaurants. The only issue is there were some things that were not what they should have been and I did leave a list of those things when turning in the unit keys last night (08/28/2021). I hope they fix/clean what is needed and keep a closer eye on such things in the future. If it was not for those issues, I would have given 5 stars.

Great location, clean apt. for 2 - not 4
Check-in & check-out procedure v. cumbersome - prop. mgmt office a mere 25-minute walk across PCH1. So if you don't have a car, prepare to walk. I didn't mind the walk but it's not a great way to start and end a vacation. Location is perfect. Owner lives upstairs from the unit - friendly but always around - nosy. Be prepared to bring everything! Salt, pepper, coffee maker, coffee, shampoo, conditioner, soap .... Listing states twin roll away available - it was not available and be prepared to pay for it as it is not included in the price. Definitely not a 4 person apt. as advertised. Cleaning fee is included but be prepared to not only wash the dishes (which is ok), but put everything away when you leave. The prop. mgmt co. was the biggest disappointment. Location and cleanliness of the unit was good.
