3 Bedroom House in Balboa Island, Newport Beach

Beautiful Balboa Island home just 3 doors to North Bayfront...3 houses from the beach. Generously infused with light, this single-story front home offers a large great room with exceptionally high ceilings and fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen, and 3 bedrooms + central air conditioning. Expansive master bedroom features a stunning ensuite, and there is an additional guest bath. Sunny front patio completing this exceptionally cheerful Island home. New to the market so no reviews yet on this site yet, however here are the reviews I've received for this property on VRBO's competitor site where I have a 5-star rating:
Mary: Dec 20 - Dec 27, 2019: Pats place is *sparking* clean. VERY well appointed with everything you need. She responded super quickly to a few questions we had (ie where is the broom). Fabulous home. Fabulous stay. Will definitely check with her first next time we head to Balboa Island.
Anne: Nov 26 - Nov 30, 2019: Great location on Balboa Island, quiet street and easy walk to coffee, the ferry and a the loop around the Island. Kitchen is well equipped with everything a cook might need. Pat has tons of beach towels, comfy beds and linens and two Keurig coffee makers. Pat gives very detailed info on accessing the home, parking and directions to the home. She was great at responding to questions, usually within minutes. We will definitely be back. Pat is a very gracious host. :)
Dawn: Oct 1 - Nov 15, 2019: What a wonderful month and a half on balboa island at Pats Home😀perfect location and comfy and roomy! Can’t wait to come back!
Linda: Aug 29 - Sept 3, 2019: Wow, what beautiful place just a block from the beach or 38 steps if you're counting. Such a jewel in a charming beachside community that you wish you could bottle up and take home. Incredible location and neighborhood. Sipping coffee on the front patio enjoying the morning ocean breeze and relaxing in the spacious living room with breathtaking windows while being able to cook in gourmet kitchen was a blast. Pat was hospitable and lovely, a wonderfully gracious host who made sure all our wants were taken care of. The master on suit was palatial and modern in decor. Loved every inch of the house. Would absolutely recommend it 100%!
Libby: Aug 11 - Aug 25, 2019: Pat was very nice, accommodating and so hospitable. I live locally and had a problem at my house requiring me to leave without notice. She was very accommodating, made it as easy as she could for me. Neighbors are great. Location is perfect. Also - Parking if you don’t have a garage or designated spot can be an issue on Balboa but I found convenient parking without an issue
Sasha: July 23 - July 27, 2019: The place is located a few houses down from a small beach and a short walk from all the stores and restaurants. You will be on the same street (opposite end) from the ferry that is only $1 per person. The house​ is very clean and has everything you would need. Pat is very quick to respond to any of your needs and wants and very accommodating. You are 7 minutes driving from Fashion Island and very central to all the main beaches in New Port Beach. Kitchen is fully equipped and Pat has enough beach towels for an army :-) We had a great time.

Summary: This property was perfect for our little family reunion-4 adults and a toddler. The house is comfortable and well appointed, and the location cannot be beat - steps to a small beach, easy walk to a charming town, and the ferry to the Newport Peninsula is at the other end of the street, a 5 minute walk. There is a Mexican restaurant a block away that is perfect for a quick bite, coffee, happy hour, etc. Balboa Island is just lovely, albeit thickly settled, and there is a boardwalk that circles the island that we enjoyed walking.The owner was very responsive when we had a small issue with the lighting, answered questions promptly,and kept us posted about possible detours due to construction.All in all, highly recommend.
