Beachfront vacation rentals in Balboa Peninsula, Newport Beach

We loved this place! The location was amazing, just minutes from the beach & walkable to great shopping and restaurants. Host was very responsive with any questions we had. We would definitely recommend this property.

Loved the location on the peninsula. We were able to walk to the beach, to restaurants and really enjoyed being able to use the rooftop deck. Beds were super comfortable and the place was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. It was very helpful also to have the garage for our car and e-bikes since parking is such a challenge in that area. Appreciated our host being available for any questions on arrival and throughout our stay. Hope to visit again!

My family and I have an amazing stay here in this beautiful home. Kristi was so quick with responses to any questions. We will definitely be returning.

Not only was the house wonderful, and in the best location, but I’ve never experienced such a kind and accommodating host. Kirk was the best, and his oceanfront house was a dream! It had all the amenities and more. I will definitely be back to this gem!

This was one of the best AirBnB’s we have stayed at. It was very clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed. My husband loved the large box of condiment packets so we didn’t need to buy any. Keurig with lots of flavors was also nice so we didn’t have to buy coffee. The beds were very comfortable and had the most comfortable sheets. Space is a little tight, but it was just fine for what we needed. I would definitely stay here again.

We had an alternate booking cancel less than 24 hours of arrival so I was in a panic to find something dog friendly. John responded immediately to my booking request and was very helpful. The place ended up being a great location a block from the beach and just a walk to lots of great food. Very clean. Thank you!

The PERFECT place!! Location. Location. Location. Clean. Responsive. Well stocked kitchen. Comfortable beds. It had it all. Parking for 2nd vehicle was a challenge but really not that bad. Neighborhood was super safe and plenty to do and walking distance. Truly amazing in every way. Highly recommend.

Hidden gem right here and I am torn between telling everyone I know about it or keeping it a secret! I loved Laguna before, but staying in Mark’s place has really made me enjoy and love it even more! Staying here and not in a hotel made it feel like home and to be able to walk the neighborhood and walk down to the beach every morning has truly made this an incredible trip! I can’t wait to come back!

Absolutely loved staying here and would stay again! The inn is across the street from the beach, so close you can hear the waves from the balcony. Everyone we talked to at the front desk was super helpful and friendly. Parking was in a garage under the inn so it felt very safe. Both the bed and pull out were comfortable and clean. We also loved the huge bathroom! Highly recommend staying here.

Jaime and Liz’s Airbnb is a tremendous location and getaway for anybody who enjoys proximity and a view of the Pacific Ocean in Laguna Niguel. Their description is spot-on accurate. They are also wonderful owners and very accommodating. We will definitely return.

Location was great! Villa was beautiful and very comfortable for our family. We will stay here again.

I absolutely loved this Airbnb! The 2 bed, 2 bath setup was perfect. The couches were super comfortable, and the view of the beach from the balcony was stunning. There was plenty to do in the area, yet it still felt peaceful and relaxing. You really can’t beat the location—just minutes from the Long Beach Aquarium and close to everything we needed. Hands down, one of my favorite Airbnbs ever!

Carla is a fantastic host. Property has incredible ocean views.

Nadine's place is full of extra touches, with upgraded bath products and kitchen dishes to well thought-out amenities throughout the house. She was super-responsive and our stay was exactly what we needed as we live nearby and were remodeling our house. The neighborhood is also quiet and friendly. I'd recommend her place to stay!

We had an amazing stay! The resort offered so many activities, beautiful pools, and was just steps from the ocean. Everything was gorgeous, both inside and out. The room was clean, well-stocked, and had everything we needed. Bethany was wonderful — easy to communicate with, very helpful, and always responsive. Any small needs we had were quickly taken care of by the resort staff as well. It was truly a perfect vacation. We would absolutely love to come back!

Place was great! Regine was extremely responsive and thoughtful, even when answering questions that were explained within the instructions in the apartment. Location was amazing and we definitely would stay here again.

Great overall. Clean, comfortable, with plenty of towels. This unit is right on the water, with a patio on the first level where you can lounge and watch seabirds and various people walk by. The only couple of notes to be aware of are one, the main living area has no window treatments for privacy, so don't walk around unclothed... unless you are into that kind of thing. Second, there is no water filtration, so you'll need to purchase your own drinking water. Also, cheap toilet paper that's rough on the rear end. Yes, I'm being nitpicky.

Stefanie’s beautiful beach house was everything we were looking for. close to restaurants and beach friendly neighborhood and beautiful views.

Good location, close to restaurants and shopping. A short walk to the beach. This place was absolutely spotless. VERY CLEAN!! Loved the patio area. Having the garage with washer & dryer was a big convenience. Upon arrival, Patti greeted us & made sure we had everything we needed. Great stay.

Location, location, location!! We loved our stay at this airbnb in Newport Beach. Being right on the sand just a few blocks from the pier and so many restaurants and shops was such fun. I worried about privacy with so many people walking, jogging, biking etc right past our front sliding doors - but I realized the glass is mirrored, so during the day no one can see in. At night there are full shades - so privacy was not a problem. The apartment looked just like the photos. It was very clean and had everything we needed despite how small it was. The hosts were very helpful and responsive. Great to have garage parking - but beware - it's a small spot. I would definitely stay here again.

We were very distressed by the fires and Dave was very kind always answered our questions promptly. We had some relief staying so close to the beach. It’s beautiful. Thank you Dave

Had a great stay! Perfect location, just one street away from the beach and the pier. Todd was very communicative. There was an issue with the garage during our stay and Todd took care of it very quickly and had clear communication through it all. We had an exceptional experience! Fits 4 people maximum. The two sofa beds unfortunately weren’t very comfy and could’ve used a mattress pad! Luckily, after a day on the beach we were so tired that it didn’t really affect our sleep.

Jeffrey’s place is in a great location. He was a great host with lots of recommendations. We enjoyed the use of the bikes, towels, and beach chairs. We will definitely stay here again in the future.

I came for work and stayed for the surf. A perfect set up for hitting the local break. There’s even an outdoor shower to clean off after. Kitchen had all the supplies needed. Great home base, definitely recommend
