We rented the entire property for our family vacation celebrating our 50th Anniversary and birthday milestones with our kids and grandchildren. The kids had a great time using paddle boards, kayaking and sailing in our little Sabot…always enjoy taking the smaller kids to the Fun Zone crossing on the Ferry….a must. It was plenty of room and well stocked for the 13 of us!! The staff and communication at Newport Beach Realty was awesome and we’ll be back!

We love Balboa Island, and this property did not disappoint. We rented both units for our large group and it worked out just great. Plenty of space, close enough to the ferry and bay but quiet and secluded.

Property was a great fit for our family. Three separate sleeping areas was perfect for our extended family. Kitchen worked out well, and the location was close to all that we wanted to do and see. Thanks so much!

We had a great experience renting the cottage & bungalow. It allowed for privacy when wanted and then a space to all come together. Location was perfect to walk the island, grab the ferry & enjoy the Holiday Lights!
