Have the BEST of both..the beautiful Newport
Bay AND the Ocean!!
Casa de Balboa is located on Balboa Peninsula in Newport with ferry service to Balboa
Island. The peninsula is primarily divided by one road, Balboa Boulevard, with a short
block on either side with the ocean or bay. You can see the lifeguard stands from
both the bay and ocean beaches as well as the boardwalk from our ideal quiet family location in Newport.
Casa de Balboa consists of two buildings, Hibiscus, and Camelia on two side by side 45 and 50 foot lots.. totaling 95 feet of bay
front with absolutely the BEST views in Newport. Each lot is nearly twice the width of a typical beach lot in Newport!! This affords a better interior flow (no bowling alley feel) and an unusually large amount of outdoor area for each Casa.
Why vacation with another family unless it's your own?
The Casas are PRIVATE to one another. Entrances for each Casa are on opposite sides of the building. The large upper decks cover the first floor courtyards. You won't have fellow vacationers staring down at OR up at you!! The courtyards are high walled on the sides (rear courtyard walled in all high walls) and short in front with gates for beach, boats, and water views. No side neighbors staring at you either!! Imagine No boardwalk revelry at all hours! No alley behind you too!.
Each building houses a 2 bedroom, 2 bath rental Casa situated on the lower level and a 3
bedroom 2 bath on the upper levels for a total of 10 bedrooms 8 baths perfect for family
reunions! The rooms are beautifully decorated and highly upgraded. The
kitchens are custom, including custom cabinetry and granite, stone or wood floors, and are
fully-appointed. The lower units have large courtyards in both the front and
back (The rear is 45 ft to 50 ft wide! Great for kids and pets...NO cats..sorry. Please inquire regarding dogs!), with cobblestone
pavers and lovely gardens filled with gardenias, hibiscus, bougainvillea and giant birds
of paradise. Spacious private decks on the upper levels provide plenty of outdoor
space with sweeping views of the water and beach.
Views! Views! Views! Unlike many oceanfront rentals (no view due to the width of the
beach) you have amazing views of Newport day and night from each Casa rental indoors or out! Often times it's easier to put your toes in the ocean water from our location (even though we are bay beachfront) than from many oceanfront rentals...due to navigating the width of the ocean beach!!
We have a premium location across from a
beautiful large bay
beach (Mother's Beach) which
is reverse L shaped. We are located
on the bottom part
of the L jutting into the bay
with views across Newport Bay of Fashion
Island and
Newport Coast. The view is particularly
lovely at night with city and bay lights.
Watch the boats pass by from
the comfort of your living room (best seats for the Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade and the 4th of July Boat Parade..they turn right in front!!), and of course,
from your
large private front courtyard
or decks (upper levels) which are great for
outdoor dining and entertaining.
The courtyards are covered and
walled (with bougainvillea, star jasmine,
and gardenias) on
both sides offering a feeling
of privacy and unmatched coziness while enjoying
the
gorgeous full bay and beach views.
They, as well as the upper decks, afford
front-row
seating for the fourth of July
Boat Parade and the world-famous Newport
Beach Christmas
Boat Parade.

Here's what recent guests have to say about
us:
"We are fortunate enough to travel a
great deal and often choose to
rent homes
instead of hotel rooms. We can
honestly say
that Casa de Balboa is an excellent
choice
for anyone who wants to: be close
to the
beach, swim or fish on the bay,
enjoy the
lovely ships as they pass, watch
your children
on the sand as you enjoy morning
coffee on
the terrace, bbq to your heart's
delight,
bike-ride the peninsula, take
the ferry to
the island, walk to great restaurants,
soak
up the rays, or otherwise enjoy
the good
life that brings people to sunny
southern
California. The word is out:
Casa de Balboa
is without equal in quality and
location!"
Sincerely, The Brunell Family
Melanie Brunell, Calabasas, CA.
"This 3 bedroom unit is FANTASTIC! Beautiful
views and a living area and deck
that are
unbeatable. The harbor view of
boats passing
by, even late at night, gives
a feeling of
serenity and relaxation. It is
the perfect
place for a family or group of
friends to
gather. Everything about the
home is perfect.
The setting, views, decorating,
and attention
to detail is over the top. Cooking
meals
for a big group was even fun
with the beautiful
kitchen to work in and the wonderful
appliances
to work with. We definately want
to come
back again. Pam has been great
at handling
all the details and accomodating
all questions
right away. We hope to be able
to take the
sailing trip next time we are
here. This
has been a GREAT experience as
we celebrated
our daughter's college graduation
with family
and friends."

"Awesome Vacation Home At the Beach! We
stay at Newport Beach one or two weeks a year
and frequently rent direct from owners.
Casa de Balboa is far above all other rentals we
have ever stayed at. The amenities are 5-star, luxury
bed linens, awesome pillowtop matresses, top of the
line kitchen appliances and cookware (didn't use them
much, we were on vacation, you know). The veranda
was awesome, we spent each morning having breakfast
on the balcony and ended the day watching reflections
of the sun setting and the city lights coming on. The
owners were very responsive to any questions, and all
emails were answered within an hour. We will
definitely stay at this location again...book soon,
because the secret is out--Casa de Balboa is probably
the most excellent vacation home you will find on the
peninsula! Enjoy! "

In addition to our bay beachfront location, the rentals are one short block from the
ocean boardwalk, pier, and walking distance
to many restaurants with a variety of fare
including Mexican, Seafood such as the famous
Crab Cooker, The Cannery, and Blue Water
Grill, Italian, Il Farro, Sabatino's, and Mama D's, Sushi, several upscale restaurants including
21 Ocean Front, and the new "The Dock" and "The Porch",
and the "A Restaurant", at the Arches old location.
These Newport Beach vacation rentals homes
were recently extensively renovated. The
floors are lovely travertine stone or
wood in the main living areas which
are topped by sea grass rugs.
The decor is upscale beachy with slip-covered furniture,
beautiful case pieces and beautiful artwork. All rentals are painted in a soothing neutral palette
-- designed to enhance the lovely water view.
Most bedrooms are generous in size, with built-ins in the closets eliminating the need for
dressers that take up space. To add more of a Caribbean feel, the closet doors are
louvered (in some units) and painted white against the neutral background. The master bedrooms have sliding doors or French
doors to a private rear courtyard with gardens on the lower levels and to the front
decks on the upper levels.
The bathrooms are beautifully done in marble, limestone, and travertine. One is private to the master bedroom in each Casa.
Parking is not an issue. Each rental Casa has a garage and there is plenty of metered (free at night) and non-metered parking.
For those with children, weekly summer programs are held at our beach,
such
as sailing, sailing/tennis combo, kayak, and swimming (Newport Beach
has
won water quality control awards). Our beach, as well as our ocean beach,is tested each week.
Walk two blocks (grab a coffee, breakfast croissant, or donut on the way) to watch the Dory fisherman bring in their catch each morning. The Dory fishing fleet is a historical landmark formed in 1891 a full 15 years before Newport Beach became a city! They are the only commercial fishermen allowed to cast off from the beaches in their specially designed boats. Upon returning, they sell their bounty out of old boats in this quaint location steeped with history.
Walk or bike to Balboa Island, Lido, Cannery area (Blue Water Grill, The Dock Restaurant, Alta Cafe, and the Cannery restaurants plus small antique and other shops, and the Fun Center located near the Pavilion.
Bring your fishing poles! The main fishing pier is a couple of blocks away. There is a small bay dock two doors away for loading/unloading of boat passengers. Great for a dingy to commute with if you have a larger boat on a mooring rentals during your stay (check with Harbor Patrol for mooring rentals availability).
Electric boat rentals can be arranged with drop off and pick up right in front of your Casa with "Pirates Life Rentals" (our guests get special rates). There are motor boat rentals located at the Pavilion.
Kayaks and paddle boards are available for rent two blocks away next to the tot lot park with swings, slide, and jungle gym. Don't forget
your tennis rackets too! Free Courts are next to the park.
The property is well maintained and always
super clean.
From the end of May to September (3 bedrooms) or October (2 bedrooms), Casa Balboa rents on a Saturday-to-Saturday basis only.
From the moment you walk through the Dutch door, you'll feel "at home", and
maybe a little pampered at the beach.
