traveler reviews for this balboa island house rental

All the Comforts of Home

Shelli B. ()
Review submitted: September 19, 2012   Date of arrival: April 4, 2009

It is one thing to go on vacation and stay at a hotel, it is still another to go to a location within walking distance of a lovely local neighborhood with interesting shops as well as restaurants, and it is still another when you are lucky enough to find yourself within a stroll of a beach or a harbor... This property is anything but a hotel, it is a vacation spot with all the comforts of home within walking distance of the beach, the harbor, local fine restaurants, and interesting shopping experiences.

The Balboa Island community is well-known to those familiar with southern California, but getting a place near this community or within it is a difficult task. More difficult still is finding a lodging that feels like home, which is another task altogether… If that’s what you’re looking for, this is your new vacation home!

It is intimate, and yet has a large family room and family dining area and a comfortable kitchen. While my family and I stayed there we had the ability to eat in and cook up a gourmet meal together in the kitchen making use of the gas grill outside on the patio, or, we could eat out. Frankly our best meal was with family and friends ‘in’, with the French doors open to the patio where we were greeted by an ocean breeze and the savory smell of our bountiful meal.

The bedrooms are nicely appointed and the bathrooms are more than adequate to serve a large family. The master bedroom has French doors that open to a soothing ocean breeze; and sadly should you need to make use of it, there is also the facility for a home office as well.

It is a clean, delightfully homey, vacation spot in the middle of the Balboa Island community, and our family would highly recommend it to a couple for an intimate time together or a family looking for an adventuresome water-sport filled week with one another. This property can fit the bill for a wide range of experiences, and it is my hope that you will enjoy it as much as my family and I did.

A Long Time Favorite -- Even Better!

P G. ()
Review submitted: September 18, 2012   Date of arrival: July 14, 2012

We stayed in this home many times in the 80s and 90s and always had a wonderful time. In July 2012 we decided to revisit the house and were pleasantly surprised with the changes that had taken place. The two upstairs bathrooms are sparkling new. What used to be an office is now part of the downstairs living space and makes another bathroom, the washer/dryer, and the garage accessible from the house. However, the very BEST change is that now, upon arrival, all the beds are made with fresh linens and towels are provided for each guest! This decreases the work of taking a beach-house vacation by 120% and a touch of luxury to the trip. One feature of the home that our family, and local friends who visit us, always enjoy is the large wooden table in the eating area. It accommodates large group meals, puzzles, games, drawing, coloring, ipad use, and spreading the newspaper out flat for easy reading; many at the same time! We spend more of our in-the-house time there than anywhere else. The table gives off the good "vibes" of the family that owns the home and of the many who have gathered around it over the years. This house has come to feel more like a home away from home than a summer rental!
