Beachfront vacation rentals in Balboa Beach

We had such a great time at Sean’s place! It’s only one block from the beach so my kids and I walked over with our small dog several times a day. There’s also a bike path which we used daily. Sean has a wagon, boogie boards, toys, chairs, and towels as well as adult bikes. The kitchen is fully equipped and beds were comfortable. It was so nice to come home to this comfy house everyday. We will definitely come back!

This property lived up to everything promised and more. It was clean (and I am picky!), well located, and easy to access by following the detailed instructions. Our guests, as well as ourselves, were comfortable with the beds and furnishings. The kitchen was well stocked and the towels, linens, and little extras were all appreciated. All of us that stayed had no problem with the stairs. If anyone planning to visit has mobility issues, you might want to look elsewhere, but that is the ONLY reason not to book a stay at this wonderful Air B&B. Also, nearby parking was not in issue for our guest who parked nearby on a clearly marked public street (not in the alley behind the property). Thanks Clifton!

This was a perfect place for us - well-equipped, comfortable, and convenient to every place and everything we needed. Alain was extremely responsive to questions and provided many helpful suggestions, which were also much appreciated. Alain made us feel very welcome. We would highly recommend this listing to anyone who wants to be near a beach, walk to get coffee and pastries, and have a quiet place to stay with friends or family.

Great stay. Perfect location for us. We had a great time. Everything was as described and we never had to contact the host for anything.

The house was such an amazing location. Loved the direct beach access, easy to walk to many great restaurants and shops. Emily was so clear with all instructions, including that the house does sit on a public walkway so we knew exactly what to expect. She even let us know that one of our main activities we were visiting for was really not close to her house, appreciate all the upfront information. Felt it was a great value for what we paid, already looking to book again.

A beautiful condo in a beautiful location. Views for days! Plenty of room with the beach at your feet. The ocean breeze makes up for no AC. Plenty to do in the area or you can relax on the deck. It really is a wonderful place to stay.

We only stayed two nights as a quick recovery after Disney, and the place worked great for our family of 4. Lots of great restaurants nearby and the beach was about a 10 minute walk. Easy to find, had every amenity we could have needed, and the parking spot was a plus.

Absolutely perfect location and great, super communicative hosts. The owner gave us lots of local tips too :) Accurate pictures, place has everything you need and the rooftop space is gorgeous! Think it might be a little warm in the summer months but perfect for when we there over Easter.

This Airbnb was amazing 10/10. Private, romantic, great view, clean, spacious, and so much more. The golf cart is a little on the older side, but it beats renting a golf cart for those crazy prices. The cart was reliable and convenient. The host was so flexible and provided rapid response to any questions I had. I would definitely come back.

This was a dream come true for me and my kids for their spring break! We felt right at home in our quiet, beautiful and peaceful place. We loved all the amenities and the nice cozy beds. The view was breathtaking and the golf cart was amazing to have. I also really appreciated all of the details on where the place was located and how to turn tv on and how everything worked. I highly recommend this place and would love to come back and stay again!

Anna was a great host—very responsive and attentive. Her home was spotless and a fantastic deal for the location! Easy, walkable access to the whole property. Will definitely return!

This place matches the pictures exactly as listed on the Airbnb site. Rosie is very responsive; she provided us with information on local attractions and brought us additional heaters when we mentioned that the room was a bit too cold for us. She also allowed us to check in earlier, which made our day much easier. The golf cart that came with the rental is a must-have. Since the gated community does not allow rental golf carts inside, we were glad to have our own. It made it much easier to come in and out of the community, which is a bit too far to walk, especially when carrying groceries. The kitchen was stocked with plenty of condiments and plates, making it feel like home. I would highly recommend this place to others. Thank you for making our trip wonderful!

We really enjoyed our stay at Tiffanys lovely home for our anniversary. The unobstructed ocean views are truly amazing from this unit! Very peaceful setting on corner (with easy stairs access) so balcony felt private. The bed is also super comfortable for a tranquil good rest. And the kitchen was a great bonus to use when we preferred to dine in. Also the host had great communication & hospitality. A good stay overall. Looking forward to returning again someday. Thanks!

We'd stay at Trevor's place again in a heartbeat! The views are absolutely incredible. The unit is super nice—way better than the photos. It's very clean and nice with ocean views out every window (and from both beds!). Kitchen was stocked with all we needed to cook dinner and grill out each night. We stayed for 5 nights and our kids slept on the pull-out couch (the living room has black out blinds). They loved the pool, hot tub, and golf cart rides. The golf cart does have seatbelts so we were able to secure our car seat easily. We love Catalina and staying in Hamilton Cove really takes it up about ten notches! You just can't beat the panoramic views and pool and hot tub on the ocean. It was super easy to hail a cab from the dock and call to get one to pick us up and take us back to the boat. 1000% recommend! Trevor is also super responsive if you have any questions!

These hosts turned hosting into a science, it's as if they predicted when a guest will want when and where and made accommodations for it, even to the minute detail of running an extension HDMI cable from the back of their tv to the front for convenience instead of wrestling with the back of the tv. Everything was in such a convenient and logical place that it makes me wonder if they have professional experience in hotel hospitality or interior design. They were a complete joy to work with and made sure all the instructions were clear and concise so there was no question on how to get there, what codes to use and where things were located. One of the best experiences I've pretty much every had, and I travel the world going to 6 to 10 places a year including abroad. Will definitely be back again!!!

Great place! Beautiful ocean views. Great walking path along the beach.

Given that the second bathroom in outside with a quick walk down side of house, it was lovely and big. Yes, the home is older but extra cozy. The beds were good and small kitchen perfect for cooking. Could use one more serving bowl. Location was divine! short walk to Marine Street and ferry. A quiet, lovely street. We loved the french doors and half doors to let a beach breeze circulate. Washer and dryer were convenient. Parking always available on street. Granted, it is not brand new but had all we needed. Could not have enjoyed ourselves more. We would definitely love to return in the future.

Can’t beat this amazing beach front location in Belmont Shore. The views from the living room, master bedroom and back patio will leave you mesmerized and make it hard to leave the home. Luckily the neighborhood is so quaint with walking paths on both sides of the peninsula that you will want to enjoy a morning stroll, if not a run on the beach. The house is so roomy that we could comfortably fit our extended family without anyone tripping over each other. The hosts were extremely responsive and provided detailed information to make sure we immediately felt at home. We highly recommend this beautiful home!

Fantastic host! Stocked the fridge with water and left us some fruit and chocolate for our arrival. Gave us early check in and late checkout. The house itself was very clean and well maintained. The upstairs bathrooms even have bidets. Would 100% stay again. The only negative worth mentioning is the house is on a main road so there was car noise audible in the mornings. But that's the trade off for being directly across from the beach entrance.

This beach house could not have been more perfect! The location is everything. I swear we found one of the most private beaches with staying at this property. The property had all the amenities and we really felt at home. Kathy was sooooo helpful. Her communication was great. We would absolutely come back and stay. We saw dolphins and sea lions from the back deck.

Edmund’s place is stunning! The views are incredible and he is a great host. Very responsive to any questions we had and extremely helpful!

Christopher is a great host, was very responsive and helpful. this place is marvelous! you literally walk into the ocean from your patio. unbeatable views and sound of the ocean.

This was our first air bnb experience , and it was amazing ! So flexible, wonderful experience, great amenities. We were able to check in a few hours earlier, and everything was clean and exactly like the photos. Will be returning for sure! :) thank you!

Thank you for having us. This hike was immaculate for our family of 5 we had so much fun ! The hike was spotless , the host was vet communicative and was accommodating to our early check in with little ones.
