Coastal Modern Balboa Beach Cottage, Steps from Water 4 BD 4 BA

Coastal Modern Balboa Beach Cottage, Steps from Water 4 BD 4 BA

10/10 Excellent
"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful four nights on Balboa Island. The cottage had all the charm we were hoping for, and the location was perfect. Easy access to downtown Balboa Island and the ferry if you want to go to the peninsula. We did it all!We used the four bikes that were provided and brought our own along, so we biked everywhere. We parked the cars and didn't use them during our stay.There was plenty of seating for everyone in the family room, and having four full bathrooms was a huge plus. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back. :)"

"Check-in was really simple. This is a 2nd floor unit and the view is great, can confirm ocean-view looks great no matter time of day. Stayed with a group of 6 and could easily sleep 10 depending on the makeup of your group/folks who will share beds. Water pressure is among the best of any place I've stayed. Extremely easy beach access. Laundry is coin operated and machines are in good shape and worked well"

"The property was very clean and had everything I needed to go to the beach as well as in the home. The location was great! Right on the board walk with ocean views. The electricity went out at the entire property all day but I was not there so it didn’t impact me until the evening for the internet and tv but the hosts were quick to respond and happy to help."

"We had a great stay, the house easily accommodated our family with so many rooms and each having its own bathroom is a real plus. The kitchen is well appointed with everything you need, and the beds were comfortable, plenty of towels and linens, lots of space to hang out, and parking for 5 cars is a real plus! The property does need some maintenance and updating though and would benefit from new outdoor seating suctions as we do spend a lot of time there."
