Judy welcomed us in person with full access to patio, bikes, kayaks & Duffy Boat… and birthday cupcakes for my husband. Accommodations are excellent & the Duffy boat scenic cruising throughout Balboa was a high point. You can park the Duffy in public areas & many shopping districts have free boat parking as well. Judy baked my husband a bday cake on day 2 - never have had a more hospitable & friendly host experience. Walking distance to restaurants, shops & beaches. There is so much to do, even our teenagers loved it & never once reported being bored (huge victory!). We look forward to future visits & Balboa / Newport get-a-ways!

We stayed here over Labor Day weekend this year with friends visiting from Europe. The patio and Duffy boat are great for hanging out enjoying the water. Perfect location for exploring nearby beaches. Friendly hosts
Would highly recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Judy was so kind and genuinely welcoming. After check in, we had total privacy and used the Duffy Boat and bikes multiple times per day. The location is great. We will definitely be back.

The hosts are very personable and kind. Having easy access to the Duffy was wonderful for the boat parade. The Duffy is clean and ready to go at any time during your stay. It can seat up to 12 people.The unit is very clean and well appointed. It is upstairs with a street view, but the hosts give full access to the beautiful patio directly on the water. It's great for having breakfast or dinner and has use of the BBQ as well.There were more than enough towels and bedding. In addition, there are plenty of kitchen supplies along with a microwave and toaster/convection oven.

Felt welcome from the first email contact and the hosts were absolutely lovely... brought the kids fresh fruit and took us for a boat ride to show us around before we went out ourselves ( at our request). Accommodations were great and location can't be beat. Highly recommend.

This was the most magnificent vacation of all time. The stay on the bay was such a bonus, and just a few blocks from the beach. The duffy boat, kayaks, and paddle boards were so much fun! There is a parking spot in front of the garage. And the owners, Nuel and Judi are so incredible

The location is perfect with everything in walking distance. We liked having the Duffy, paddle boards and bikes. It gave my family lots of options for individual activities. We enjoyed our stay. It was our second time at this place. We’d stay there again. The hosts are wonderful people.

Judi and Nuel are gracious hosts, providing amenities to make guests feel at home. The Duffy, the two nice bikes, the gas grill, the two beach chairs and more were super nice to have use of.

Nice 2bd/1ba upstairs unit setup in a great location on the harbor, 1.5 blocks from the beach, and close to the main PCH/Newport Blvd/Balboa Ave main roads around Newport Beach. Extra amenities like kayaks, SUPs, and electric boat to cruise around the harbor made a fun spot even more enjoyable for the kiddos!!
