Experience the Magic of Newport Beach – Ocean & Bay at Your Doorstep!

The world-famous Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade sails right in front of the Casa’s! From Casa 225’s deck or a short stroll to the end of 20th Street, you’ll have some of the best views of this spectacular holiday tradition. Every unit is beautifully decorated for the season – complete with a pre-lit tree to make your stay festive and cozy.

Have BOTH the Ocean & Bay!

Why choose when you can have it all? Our prime location sits where the peninsula narrows to just one road – with the calm bay on one side and the ocean on the other, just a 2–3 minute walk away. Spend the day riding the waves, then return to the peaceful bayfront for sunsets, spacious outdoor living, and a sandy beach right outside your door. Truly vacation heaven!

About Casa 225

The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring a professional Viking range and everything you need to create memorable meals. The open-concept Great Room and the main suite both open to a spacious deck that spans the width of our building on a 45-ft lot. Outfitted with deep seating lounging, a Weber 3-burner natural gas grill, and a patio heater, it’s the perfect place to relax and savor the view.

Holiday & Event Ready

Hosting family for the holidays, a wedding weekend, or a reunion? Casa 225 is your perfect home away from home.

Great place for a family getaway

This condo is perfect if you are traveling with small children. Walking distance to most attractions, restaurants etc. if you find a convenient, free place to park - don’t move your car! Parking is at a premium in New Port so add the parking fees to your vacation budget, just in case you have trouble finding a spot.

Family Fun

What a great place to stay! We were on a family vacation with 3 generations. We loved the location-we watched the boats coming and going in the harbor from our porch, walked to restaurants and shops, and swam in the ocean. Disneyland was about a 30 minute drive. The property was very well stocked with beach chairs, towels, kitchen appliances. The furniture and beds were comfortable. Highly recommend!

Beautiful spot!

We had a lovely time at this property! The location is absolutely perfect because you don’t get the loud crowds from the coastline but you are close enough to beach and the advantage of the marina, which also has a calm beach where we paddle boarded and walked. Even our golden retriever Bear had a great time! Highly recommend!

Amazing view!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in our 3 bedroom casa with a view. We had a few personal hiccups getting there but were graciously accommodated by Pam. This location is the best. Bay and beach out our window and beach front down the street. Many options for food. Loved the lighthouse restaurant and playground for our grand daughter. This place was immaculate. Will definitely be back. Thank you Pam.

Not what I signed up for

Whole beach access was the highlight of our trip, the plumbing issues noise and traffic and overwhelming registration communication made it hard to enjoy my “vacation”. Constantly worrying about breaking the rules and then an unexpected flood in kitchen(yes ALL dirty WATER) - made it Very hard to relax. We ultimately had to pack up a day early. Leave after plumbing arrived in what was supposed to be our last family breakfast on our vacation. This was NOT how I anticipated celebrating my husbands retirement! I’m just hoping the owners see the inconvenience and offer some type of compensation.

Awesome

We had a perfect view of the bay. The furniture was very comfortable and clean. It’s only a 2 block walk to the beach and boardwalk. We had pets with us and it’s very pet friendly everywhere around us. There’s a park with a playground for kids but there’s also a grassy area for dogs. I would recommend it to anyone.

Great Property with Fabulous Views

I can't say enough positive things about our stay at 225 Casa de Balboa. The 3 bedroom is spacious and extremely well appointed. The linens and towels were very nice and the beds were extremely comfortable. We loved the views from the living room, master bedroom, and the deck/balcony which was amazing. We had our dogs with us and Pam was wonderful working with us to accommodate us traveling with our dogs. We walked on the small bayside beach right in front, and also crossed over to the large ocean side beach which was only about 3 minutes away. The sunrises from the apartment are spectacular and the sunsets on the beach were mind blowing. We will definitely visit again.
