Charming home on Balboa Island!
Balboa Island is an absolute jewel in the middle of Newport Bay. There is a 1.6 mile walkway around the perimeter and a charming 2 block main street with unique shops and fine and casual dining, literally around the corner! My cottage is very inviting. Features a courtyard with outdoor fireplace. It is one bedroom with two bathrooms and a separate sleeping area off of the living room. Perfect for two or a small family. It is possible to sleep one additional person on the twin bed size couch. Centrally located between Los Angeles and San Diego. Great for day trips.
The neighborhood is very relaxed. This is a popular destination so there is a fair amount of activity which makes the courtyard a welcome retreat. My home is one street away from the main street. It is so very quaint! There is a big mixture of old beach houses and new upscale construction. It is a wealthy area with down-to-earth residents.

Excellent location, literally steps away from restaurants, coffee shops and bakeries. Felt like a time machine taking you to the coastal vacation of the 1960s:)
The cottage gives out vacation vibes from the minute you enter the courtyard. Location can’t be beat- park your car and walk everywhere. We can’t wait to return!
We have been visiting Balboa Island yearly for 16 years, this was one of our favorite places. Quiet and peaceful. Easy walk to town and the bay. Home was very comfortable, clean and well appointed. In case you can’t tell, we loved everything about this property. Plan to return again soon.
Great place to stay - convenient to the main street, quiet, and a very easy place to call "home away from home" This is a return visit to this delightful accommodation,
Really enjoyed the property, only one block from town center, but still quiet and private. Comfortable and stocked with everything you need. Parking was provided which really made a difference. Highly Recommend
Such a beautiful residence and a wonderful owner that will make every effort to make your stay comfortable and you will want to return. The location is perfect, a block from shops and great eateries.
Jill is a wonderful host: available, attentive and helpful! The cottage is in a great location on Balboa Island, close to the main street with restaurants, shops, Balboa Bars and Frozen Bananas :-). It was great fun to be on the Island when the Newport Beach Boat Parade was happening each evening; we loved strolling around the Island to watch the boats and see all the beautiful homes decorated for Christmas. A lovely stay in a lovely place!
We really enjoyed staying in this great property. We enjoyed the unique vintage design with private courtyard. Jill was great to work with. Excellent location on the island.
Great location, comfortable accommodations and wonderful host.
A short block from downtown area with shops and dining. Quiet neighborhood with a very friendly cat next door. I've stayed here previously and will in the future.
We had a wonderful stay at this property. It is very quiet, away from the hustle and bustle of the main street, but close so that you can walk for your coffee, groceries and food. The beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed visiting and relaxing in the living area and were able to cook just about anything in the well-stocked kitchen. We would definitely like to come back!
We loved staying at this cozy hidden jewel! The house is well stocked with all the essentials and very homey. My husband and I will definitely add this to our list of favorites.
